    The downside being that Wave 8 (Ratchet, Scatterspike and Bisk) has now definitely been skipped in the UK :-(

    which is what kicked off my little rant on the matter of Warriors:

    came of more as being informative than a rant.

    hopefully we get the two waves before the movie comes out.

    Maybe it's worth shouting at Hasbro that they might want to slap Bisk & Ratchet in a revision case - the concern I have though is with Thermidor being in the following wave they'd not stick Biskback in again and who is to say the line will even still exist to get waves much further into 2017 than the middle of the year when there is no more cartoon anymore and it's a Movie year killing the Nu-RID line off in 2017 at some point now is at least an option on the table.

    Perhaps I need to think about importing those two just to be safe. Though I may wait until Toyfair to see if they plan to kill the line off or not before I decide.

    [edit]

    Is that Starscream a straight repack of the TRU toy or a slight repaint ?

    What about that Jan 2017 confirmed releases news tho? There were RID Warriors on there. Slim chance it might be Bisk/Ratchet you reckon?

    On the other hand, on that list 'Transformers Robots in Disguise Team Combiners' are listed separately to 'Transformers Robots in Disguise Warriors Assorted'- but both for Jan 2017. The Titan Masters on there aren't out yet either with two weeks left. So maybe still hope before I commit to eBay prices.

    Wave 8 were out THREE+ MONTHS AGO in the US and have had little or no international distribution:

    US Robots in Disguise Warrior Wave 8 released at US retail - Transformers News - TFW2005
    CANADA Transformer Robots In Disguise Wave 8 Warrior Class Released At Retail - Cybertron.CA - Canadian Transformers News and Discussion

    This wave was found in the US over a month ago., The wave after is in The Philippines last weekend and will probably be what hits here next.

    Wave 8 is sold out at BBTS, can't find it at Robotkingdom, Kapow never had it, Sold through at ID Toys

    Your best bet is Amazon US:

    Amazon.com: Transformers: Robots in Disguise Warrior Class Autobot Ratchet: Toys & Games

    Amazon.com: Transformers: Robots in Disguise Warrior Class Bisk: Toys & Games

    https://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Robots-Disguise-Warrior-Scatterspike/dp/B017H1WILS/ (look for the Greenthirteen listing)

    @Max Tower Starscream looked like a straight up repack so did grimlock and strongarm
