All while Target now says shipping is unavailable. It makes me almost want to pay that much, but it's almost double the price for 2 voyagers. I'm holding out hope that maybe stores around me might get some in stock eventually, and they don't all get bought up by scalpers.

As soon as I saw the “in stock” notice on Target’s site for my local store, I drove over, and while there were none on the shelves, a helpful employee looked on his handheld device and said there some in the stock room, so he went and found one for me and brought it up front. At this point, if you can’t find it in Target stores, that may be the best price you see since they are going for around $150 on Ebay.

I would recommend waiting things out a little bit. Last year the Rainmakers set trickled out similarly, then were out in full force and by back to school time, many stores were clearancing them. They also came into and out of stock on Target's website a couple times as well with a few of the times being available for a while, not just blink and you miss it.

Does their website list them, I couldn't find them? Do we expect the price to be what TFsource is posting or can we get it cheaper from somewhere else?

Thanks

They were $59.99 in store, same on the website.

Here is a link to the item on Target.com (if it works).

Thanks man, I appreciate that. Good to know. The link worked, but of course out of stock, wish we could order them.

Why are they doubled the price on TFsource? Ebay I expect supply and demand. Disappointed to see that price on TFsource.

Me too. Especially if it come with a BBQ, a fishing pole, and a bucket full of tiny Sharkticons.

It's the Autobot Clones, Cloudraker and Fastlane, we don't have to guess. The set was mentioned in the Q&A in direct response to someone asking if the Autobot Clones were getting rereleased to go along with Pounce and Wingspan being out at Target.

Sowndwave76 wrote:Alright, my next question is how does everyone think the coneheads will be released?
I'm hoping it's separately and not in a $90 3-pack (which if so, wouldn't this also probably be an exclusive?) that gets annoying to find.

What will be "hilarious" is if they throw a couple into another exclusive $60 2-pack, then sell the other separately with additional (and non-related/pointless) accessories to justify a marked-up price.

To be honest, I do hope it will be a 3 pack like the Rainmakers. And unlike the Rainmakers, those will be more relevant to get. And if they are produced in large numbers like the Rainmakers were, no one will have a problem to get them.

This is correct, basically it's following how Starscream and his buddies have been handled in Earthrise.

This shows more inventory than at the Target website. I'm guessing Germantown is the closest to you right now, but I suspect that more stores will get inventory over the course of the week.

How much was it at Target in store?

As someone else noted, comparing this set to the rainmakers set is a mistake. This will be a highly sought-after set as these characters are fan favorites, rarely ever sold together,
