The next wave of Deluxes for the Dark of the Moon line have been sighted at retail at a Target in New York by user Jlogano20. This wave features the highly awaited repaints of the first wave's
Bumblebee and
Ratchet molds.
Do you have any new sightings? Have toys you want to discuss in full detail on the boards? Well we have just the places for you to go! Post your very own sigthings in the
sightings section in the forum, and then discuss the toys themselves in the
Feedback Forum (Please use search to see whether or not a thread was made for the toys before starting a new one, however.)
Good luck, and happy hunting!

Word from
BoxOfficeMojo tells us that Transformers: Dark Of The Moon has passed the
Lifetime Revenue of Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen, this weekend.
In just 26 Days Transformers 3 earned $882,389,000 ($882 Million) worldwide whereas Transformers 2 only managed to grab $836,297,228 (836 Million).
Unfortunately Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 destroyed DOTM at the boxoffice; shattering records previously held by TF3 not too long ago. But as we speak, Paramount’s Captain America got a Shield powerful enough to protect the company from Potter’s magic.
Transformers 3 is yet to release in Japan later this week. And with it hopefully will reach the US$ 1 Billion mark comfortably.
If you have enjoyed the movie… go watch it again… If you haven’t watched it yet… what are you waiting for?

Some images of a bunch of new third party Transformers designs have begun to circulate around the net. Posted on ACToys and subsequently reposted on
HK-TF and other fansites are some images of a custom third party take on Steeljaw, which looks barely any different to the original other than incorporating a few other parts into the design.
Also posted on
HK-TF are some very rough (we assume) early versions of nano-scale versions of Kup and Scourge. These are presumably going to be sub Scout sized when they are done, like the works of Gungs Borchitect and Jizai Toys.
