    There better have been some exotic birds in there!
    And by that I don't mean some overly made-up mature women from Chichester.

    Twice the size - but with less than half the poseability.
    I thank Armada for revitalising the toyline but I'll take more agility over size any day.

    My Smyths has the deluxe and voyager premium TFTLK out. Prime and Grimlock look really good but not at £32. The deluxes look ok but again £££

    TRU colliers Wood had..........Very little. A couple of Twinfernos at £12.99 some TM Wave 2s and a Legends Bumblebee at £12.49.

    The Savacentre Sainsburys across the road had Cyclonus and Hotspot at £12 to clear and one RID Wineglass at full price. Definite drought conditions.

    Sometimes Autocorrect gets it more right than we know. She looks the type.

    Smyths at Cribbs Causeway have the TLK figs up for sale already. Plenty of TR Primes and Megatrons at 18.99. CW Scattorshots reduced to a tenner. TR Highbrow at 14.99. Didn't get the chance to check Asda or TRU.

    Wave one tlk deluxes and voyagers on the shelf for purchase at York Clifton moor smyths. Picked up an Optimus voyager. Price is a bit steep granted, buts it's a pretty good mold, nice details and paint in robot mode at least.

    I was in B&M Bargains - where i've been looking often to try any find the Rescue Bots toys some have seen (no sign yet) - they did have some very nice Batman Hotwheels though - including some 1960's type items I have not seen before.

    I always was very pleased to find the "Missing Wave" of Minicons : Ransack / Scorch Strike Jetstorm / Glacius. They also had some Hammer and Back as well. so that was a nice surprise that now means I've seen every Hasbro Minicon item in the UK aside from the large multi-pack - though one of the 3 Minicon sets is still pretty rare they do exist. (excluding forthcomming items).

    I was also noticing that Sainsburys has RID on Clearance (not super cheap) but it implies they are planning to ditch the line and replace it with Movie toys in the next week or so. If I don't see Bludgeon & Thermidor in the UK I will be irked.
    Especially as it seems likely that they won't even get to making RID Thundercracker -- that is irksome enough.

    I've seen all 3 pretty regularly, which one did you think was rare?

    Sadly I think RID, bar Crash Combiners and Activators which my local Sainsburys had tonight and haven't been reduced, is a gonna at UK Retail

    Have a look at 2017 UK Transformers Release Schedule | www.transformertoys.co.uk

    No RiD Warriors anywhere other than Jan. I think the "No Release Month Stated" section is Hasbro's post film plans for prob cAugust.

    So if you want that Warrior Wave, orderas soon as one of the overseas sites puts it up.

    IMG_0546.JPG IMG_0547.JPG IMG_0548.JPG IMG_0549.JPG Deluxes, voyagers, 1-step turbo and knight armour changers at Smyths, Oldbury, as well as the Skyhammer crash combiner set from RID, which is the first time I've seen it on the shelf. Also worth noting that on the first day they're selling the 1-step toys on the premise of being reduced prices.

    £22.99 I think it is.
    Still I cant wait for the Monday after next cos I'll have a new paycheck and I will probably end up buying Voyager Prime, Barricade and Berserker.... Only cos Skyhammer is at Smyths so I may as well

    edit: Actually maybe not, maybe someone can grab and send me a Skyhammer and use the money I saved to save more money buying the movie figures from IDToys
    £19.99 for Deluxes and £27.99 for Voyagers
