Target- According to sources at TFW2005, a Target in San Fransisco, California has Animated Wreck Gar and Atomic Lugnut on its shelves, and a Target in Chicago, Illinois has the new Universe Voyagers Leo Prime, and Overload.

You can view the original threads here, and here.

Universe Overload is a repaint of the Cybertron Defense Team Scattershot mold (recently repainted as Universe Decepticon Dropshot), and Universe Leo Prime is a repaint with a remolded head, of the Cybertron Leobreaker mold.

TF Animated Wreck Gar is the lovable, Weird Al Yankovic voiced innocent robot garbage truck brought to life by an allspark crystal in the episode, "Garbage In, Garbage Out"

TF Animated Atomic Lugnut is a repaint of the Voyager class TF Animated Lugnut toy.

Loving Inferno and Leo Prime, not much into Overload and rather have him as a Decepticon anyway...

Leo Prime being sited is good, looking forward to him. The others, not so much. Still waiting on the repainted combiners though.

Leo Prime actually looked better than I thought he would in person. Not good enough to make me buy a Beast-former, but it was a close call.

Leo Prime yes, already got Inferno from HTS, not sure about the other new stuff. It will probably take a couple of weeks at least before they hit Target or other stores here though.
