    I'll keep an eye out for them.

    In other sighting news I have now visited 4 b&ms in Leeds and found zero TR deluxes or movie leaders. There were a few £15 Sixshots in the new b&m on armley road and several combiner wars Thundercracker. The store in Middleton had a few of the legends size figs but nothing else of interest. Has anyone spotted any broadsides?

    Good luck, hope you get one! I've checked a few Tescos here in Leeds and found no TR figs whatsoever unfortunately.

    I stupidly paid a bit over the odds for him when I'd made money from some sales (check my sales thread, folks!) - but I'm hoping to find one for my friend.

    The difference between wave 1 & 2 is that w2 isn't evenly packed: 2 of both Dinobots and Rippersnapper, 1 each of Moonracer and & Blackwing. Sets may be the easiest (cheapest) way to get those last two.

    It does make me appreciate Andy's efforts all the more when I see the pricing elsewhere, Certainly soothes the sting of the Pre-Order lump sum.

    Just a heads up guys, the Power of the Primes Rodimus Prime is now ‘in stock’ at Amazon UK! (By Amazon themselves I might add, not 3rd party)

    Mine has a delivery of Feb 17th, looks like some of the others are available there too so happy hunting!

    Hmm, I’m sure Headmasters was the last line too! At least with Amazon you’re guaranteed good service, they’ll get it swapped for you ASAP. I’ll keep an eye out if there’s problems with Rodimus though, thanks for mentioning.

    B&M Great Yarmouth had TLK legion prime for £3, TR legion bumblebee x3 and gnaw x2 for £4, tlk megatron and prime premier edition leaders (corrected) for 13 quid, a good megatron figure which I really like. Also ultra bee and galvatronus combiners for £10, I’m still not convinced yet but that’s a tempting price. They did have 3-4 six shots but no sky shadow. There was a lot of skywarps and one cw starscream hidden behind them.

    So nothing new, but at least what has been spotted elsewhere should you wish to partake. Apart from sky shadow (grr).

    I'm guessing it varies in certain stores then as when I went to the Loughborough b&m a couple of months back I bought skywarp for £25 and in the photo posted by @dacamper the price label says £25

    Smyths have changed the estimated in store date for Power of the Primes deluxes to 16th to 24th Feb. So expect the listings to disappear shortly, like every other pre-order they've had!

    Whoops. That was me. I grabbed a pair of them a couple of weeks ago for me and a pal. Have you tried the Lowestoft branch? Carlton Colville? Beccles? Norwich? Maybe you could get them to send one to the Yarmouth branch.

    The price has changed Skywarp was £25 now all CW/TR Leaders are £14.99 whatever the price on the shelf says.

    Also the TLK Optimus and Megatron in that pic is LEADERS not voyagers for £12.99
