It seems there’s been a handful of defective Transformers carts out there, mostly the Autobot side version where the top screen flickers during play. Ha-ha!

On that note, I’m rather pissed with the local Targets. There’s a “G1” style Starscream skin for the custom character (Makes him look like ugly jet-monkey movie Starscream in gaudy, 1980’s-chic colors) available at Target stores with DS Download Stations exclusively. However of the three ‘local’ (to use the term loosely) shops, two of the three didn’t know what a Download Station was and the one that did said they hadn’t had anyone in to update the thing in ages. Here’s hoping it can eventually be purchased with the tokens earned in Battle for the AllSpark (I’ve cleared the game and hunted down most if not all of the challenge missions at this point, and still only have 75% or so completion.) If it remains a Target thing only, however, it’s a bit of a finger to those of us with underequipped stores as well as the entire nation of Canada. Whee!
