    Yes, that was the case breakdown. Wave 1 was Prime only, wave 2 was Prime and Megs.

    However, for this wave, the only listing I've seen online has BOTH Nightwatch Prime AND Deep Desert Brawl.

    Of course, that might Mean Entertainment Earth simply won't be getting an all-Nightwatch Prime wave.

    Well, the ones sold on eBay did, so I don't see why this one shouldn't.

    According to my phone conversations with the toy dept. managers, at least in central NY state, the WalMart resets should be on or before the 13th, so I guess they will put it off for a few more days still.

    I hope Wal-Mart resets soon so I can get the Allspark Battle Voyagers and Leaders. I also hope to find the Screen Battle series and Legends locally since I can't find Bumblebee (Longarm set) and anything that remotely looks like Bumblebee (Legends Cliffjumper vs. Recon Barricade).

    Entertainment Earth took down Leader wave 4 which was Nightwatch Optimus Prime. Deep Desert Brawl is in Leader wave 5 along with Nightwatch Optimus Prime. From what I have seen it is one new leader per wave. Optimus Prime was wave 1, Megatron wave 2, Brawl wave 3, Nightwatch Optimus Prime wave 4, and Deep Desert Brawl will be wave 5. I expect wave 6 will be Premium Series Optimus Prime and Megatron unless they make a 7th wave which would have Megatron.

    Movie Leader Wave 5

    Edit: I haven't checked in a while but BBTS had Nightwatch Optimus Prime listed as December and Deep Desert Brawl as January at one point.

    I went back to Wal-Mart today and there were NO Deep Desert Brawls, and the amount of Night Watch Primes say to me that he is shipping alone.

    I'll get him. The silliest reason I will is because my leader prime did'nt come with instructions.

    But I do think I like this figure The darker colors play up alspark power as a cool line.

    I was tempted to buy this and put a G1 Ultra Magnus head on it. The mold is too good to not have it be an accurate sized fully poseable G1 UM.

    I bought Nightwatch Prime yesterday. On the back of the box it says "Also Available" and has a pic of Desert Brawl. Does that mean he should be in the same case with Prime?

    Hey. I represent that! J/K
    Especially if your near the Mississippi River.

    I have to admit. I am not a big fan of the allspark blue. But I want this one still.

    See ya @ the end of the month Shin.

    Not really. Sometimes figures that are a month away are put on the package. This was done a few times in Cybertron and I'm sure most of the modern lines. Nightwatch Prime is Leader wave 4 while Deep Desert Brawl is wave 5. Brawl will probably show up in a week or two.

    Just today at an Ohio Wal-Mart I saw seven NW Primes and none of anything else leader-sized, so I'm inclined to agree with that assessment.

    I don't have Leader Prime yet, so I'm stuck decided between which of these to get. If I see this one and I'm in an emo mood, I'll most likely buy it.

    I don't know about NW Prime... something with him or Desert Camo Brawl aren't catching my fancy.

    I'll just wait for the Premium version of Optimus Prime (and Megatron).
