FYI smyths Black Friday if you can find one and get to a store:

 

Forbidden planet liverpool had leader starscream and thundercracker aswell as the 4 new autobot combiners.

And the entertainer had aoe voyager drift at £12.99

Are any of these worth getting or shall i just wait for the combaticons?

 

Oh, in Asda today that ridiculous RID Bumblebee Blaster that goes from car to blaster is half price - £7.49. I think Tikgnat was tempted by it?

Nothing else was on offer.

 

I've had 2 different friends tell me they've seen Ultra Magnus in different Smyths today:

Pretty certain that's a Glasgow branch, and he's been seen in the Falkirk one too

 

^ smyhts website says they are in low stock at the tollgate branch, might be worth a check.

 

All 4 Essex ones are showing that as of now. So fingers crossed.

I haven't been to the new one in Chelmsford yet, anyone checked it out?

 

I was in smyths friday longton they had to ultra manus in 44.99. I go back in saturday one left i have taken it. In toys r us festival park stoke on trent. I saw 2 generations figure in stock 1 blitzwing 1 double dealer. They also had mirage prowl combiner wars

 

Finally picked up that CW Prowl from TRU Colliers Wood. A few stragglers from Wave 3 and the now traditional four Roadbusters who still have the £22.99 shelf label - I think they might be there for the rest of the decade/Time. Sod all else.

 

For anyone who's interested, A1Toys has First Edition T4 Optimus Prime on sale at £13.99 with free P&P: First Edition Optimus Prime - Transformers: Age of Extinction - Black Friday

I didn't have one of these, so decided to get one, although I got mine via Amazon on Friday.

 

Seems that Gen Brainstorm is now a shelf warmer around these parts now. Hucknall B&M has had a restock and now has 3x Brainstorm, Roadbuster and Whirl. They also still have a sea of Gen Jetfires too

Hucknall Wilkos has 3x Rhinox and 1x Whirl in Gen Voyagers. They also still have a lone TFP BH Unicron Megs for a fiver.

Newark B&M has Sky Byte, Roadbuster, Brainstorm and Whirl so I am told.

 

Huh. In Lincoln it's pretty much a sea of Whirls. Which is a real shame as he's just so cool! I saw a woman coming out of there with a Whirl in her hand and I thought, "Your kid is gonna LOVE that!"

There again, kids today; if it ain't a PS4 or XOne... *Shrug* All I wanted for Xmas when I was a nipper was OP. Never got him though.   Made up for that now though! Lol!

Aaand, breathe!  

 

Plenty of Combiner Wars Deluxe Wave 4 in Warrington Toys R Us, as well as the RID Tron coloured Deluxe repaints.

 

TRU Bolton have a whopping 8 Ultra Magnus and 2 Armada Galvatrons @ £50 if anyone is desperately looking for one in the Manchester Area.

 

Kapow have Scattorshot in stock

Transformers Combiner Wars Voyager Scattershot

Presumably this means they've sold through the accompanying Onslaught Pre Orders from this initial shipment but still, surprisingly (not), have spares of his wave mate

3 Ultra Magnus left in Rayleigh Smyths. No Skywarps.

A few Protectobots nothing else much worth reporting

 

Well guess kapow won't be restoring wave 5 til after xmas   best look elsewhere for em

 

TRU Cribbs Causeway had a large restock of Generations Voyagers including Sandstorm, Rhinox, Springer, Whirl and others. Still have plenty of CW Wave 4 deluxe.

Smyths had one CW Ultra Magnus, £44.99.

 

Just a reminder that Tesco still have their two for £15 offer on selected toys. I decided to use it to pick up the remaining RID Hero Mashers I needed. Also included in that sale are the RID One-Steps, most notably the more recent repaints.

Also spotted a solitary RID Deployer Drift reduced to £11 in a bargain bin in Great Yarmouth Asda. As far as I could tell it was only in there because the MiniCon had fallen off his peg and was rattling around loose in the box. No packaging damage and nothing wrong with the figure(s) inside. Just a one-off obviously, but I thought it would be fun to mention if anyone was in GY and still hadn't picked one up.  

 

anyone been to forbidden planet yet? no chop shop sightings?

 

Tollgate Smyth's had two ultra magnuses in at £44.99, lots of cw wave 3 deluxes with a single dragstrip and generations skybyte for a tenner. They also had new star wars hero mashers which I've not seen before, greedo, admiral ackbar, and the inquisitor (who looked great). Tescos have the hero mashers in at eight quid each for the basic ones, but they were all the wave one stuff. Oh, and joke/piss take of the day has to be awarded to sainsburys tollgate for their one streetwise for the price of £17!
