    Try John Lewis if there's one near you, they've had Ratchet and BA for weeks.

    This just in, Scourge 151 has texted me to say he found Voyager Optimus at a Tesco's in Wales somewhere. He hasn't clarified what size class of Tesco's it was though, i.e. whether it was a tiddily local Tesco's or a fricking huge megastore Tesco's.

    Either way, it doesn't get much more mass retail then one of the top supermarket chains.

    Evidence!
    It was a Tesco Extra, the one in Talbot Green for those who wish to know.
    No other wave 2 stuff there that I could see, they did have a full complement of Leader classes, the 2 pack and wave 1 voyagers. Only deluxes were movie ones, but there's still time for them to get some in.

    All my Tescos stores had were the same old tired movie shelfwarmers they've had since last year. I really can't see them wanting to put anything new out until they clear the glut.

    Awesome, but I was hoping to wait until the hardcopy contest starts on 24th August. I guess I could buy Blitzwing now, before he disappears. ;) 

    Edit: Free postage is for orders over £25 according to the pale blue box on the left of the page.
