    Haha I saw this and was grumbling to myself "damn it, should have gone with Kapow over In Demand toys" and then checked my email on a different matter and had an update from ID toys saying my Six Shot had been posted haha :D  this will make me happy when I get it in hand over the fact that there are still no TR Deluxe wave 3 in Warrington Toys R Us (Unless anyone spotted some since I last checked on Monday) They definitely had a delivery as every isle but the transformers one had boxes piled up ready to be put out.

    Anyone going this 'for the love of sci fi' convention near the Trafford Centre over the weekend? Hoping for some potential goodies (last years Star Wars one they did I got Transmetal Tarantulas and a few other bits)

    Will say hey if I see you there then. Last year there was a really cool stall (where I got my Tarantulas from) that had a bunch of different pre-owned figures in a few different boxes so hopefully at least that vendor will be back.

    Found this RID MiniCon four-pack in Great Yarmouth TK Maxx for £9.99. Is that new for the UK?

    Somebody in here mentioned wanting a Swelter MiniCon not that long ago. This is the Blizzard Strike version, but it might suffice.

    Even the TRU at Colliers Wood - officially the smallest and most useless TRU that actually has shelving in the UK - had a couple of Wave 3 Deluxes left this afternoon.

    Sod all in the Savacentre Sainsburys and only Chromedome and Highbrow at £13.33 in the Wimbledon Entretainer.

    I can no longer get a Hot Rod even if it's in my useless MK TRU. It's on the Christmas list and so I am under embargo.

    Hucknall B&M have CW in. They had a couple of Onslaughts and Scattershots but only had Pipes and Buzzsaw in the Legends. Wouldn't have minded a Viper but will try B&M in Bulwell tomorrow if I have chance

    There were 2 Onslaughts and a Scattershot in the B&Ms Manchester Fort as well as CW Legends. I took the Shockwave leaving Pipes, Buzzsaw and Chopshop. B&Ms Bury had only CW Legends. Was a Groove, Rodimus and Skywarp

    Do you know if there are any other four packs in this line? So I know if I should keep an eye out.
    Honestly it's a huge pain in the arse getting in and out of the retail park my local TK Maxx is in so checking there regularly to see if something new might've cropped up is a frustration.
    The Great Yarmouth B&M is on a one-way system too, where the entrance and exit are separate and when you leave you have to contend with a load of sets of traffic lights. It's like the town planners here decided to make any trip out scouring the decent places to find TF a monumental headache. Zod help me if I want to hit up certain stores in a particular order because of differing prices.
