picked one up this morning. unlike hot rod, he was at the first one is went to, which was nice. they also had a strafe who was packaged upside down and a barricade. maybe should've checked for more, since that wave 3 bumblebee was in cogman's case. would've been nice to get him too.

 

Confirmed in Las Vegas--got one yesterday. Also found Crosshairs.

 

My ross only had 1 crosshairs with a beat up box thats all they had  

 

The utter disappointment I felt today walking into Ross again to find three TLK deluxes and them all be from wave 2.

Did end up buying one of them though, Drift, because I had kind of wanted him. Hopefully Cogman will show up later.

 

I like Cogman... could\'ve given him a gun too though. 
 

 

you never know..... I'm just hoping we get onslaught dreadbot and mohawk soon

 

Yup. Found one just today in Portland, OR.

 

Went to Ross today. Only had Crosshairs.

 

Here's how it works:

A) The TF sites report this;
B) The "collectors" swoop in to buy ALL of them;
C) You drive around for hours, only to find a Strafe or Slug (which you don't want, even at $8);
D) You realize that paying $30-35 for Cogman is somehow cheaper than trying to find him locally.
E) In paying scalper prices (rather than MSRP), you support a system that creates artificial scarcity to make you pay more for your toys (now and in the future).
F) Hasbro sees Cogman selling for $35 and decide that raising deluxe prices to $25 isn't so crazy, after all!
G) Scalpers raise after-market prices to reflect new MSRPs;
H) Cycle repeats.

I saw Wave 1 and 2... so the mixture leads me to believe Ross is getting a random assortment. Unfortunately, and keep this in mind, discount stores are not known for even distribution, so if you thought finding Cogman at Walmart was difficult?  

 

Finding Cogman at Walmart wasn’t difficult it was non-existent.

 

Are people having luck finding these? I've been checking stores all around St. Louis, MO and haven't seen anything. I'm not sure if he's coming in his original case assortment or in a new assortment. Very frustrating not being able to find this after the initial excitement.

 

Keep an eye out, I found Cogman at Ross yesterday in Culver City, there was only one left alongside a single BB, Barricade, and Crosshairs, $8 isn't a bad get for this headmaster.

 

I’m hoping he really does get released as a Studio Series entry.
