Universe toys are usually really cool, but the thing is, ROTF has been getting in the way of their release. My TRU and Wal-Mart haven't gotten any new Universe toys in months! Is everyone else experiencing this drought or will there be some new toys for the series out soon. I want Universe Dinobot and Cyclonus, but the stores are refusing to stock Universe!
The reason you can't find them is because you waited way too long to get them. Cyclonus was released in January and Dinobot was on the pegs for weeks before the ROTF stuff showed up. So it's not the ROTF line's fault. It's yours.
I get what you're saying, but it's not just them, it's everyone. The only thing they restock in the way of Universe now is Wave 1! I saw them a while ago, and my stores usually restock them a whole bunch of times. I still see Animated Wave 1 toys sometimes. They never put up anything new it seems.
Okay, I see. By hiatus I thought they meant that no NEW toys will come out. The old toys that were already released should at least be getting restocked, shouldn't they? I don't know much about this stuff. Me too! All I want are some deluxes!
hasbrotoyshop.com has both in stock...use your computer and just order the damned things...not too hard...or ebay....
In order to restock they need to be making them. And With ROTF in full swing right now, and bits and peices of animated trying to trickle out during this time, I doubt you will see any older universe being restocked.
This may sound silly, but my Mom NEVER lets me order things online. It's been like that forever. She only orders over the phone!
No. Target and Wal-Mart are no longer stocking Universe. Toys R Us might still have some, but it's just old stuff that hasn't been bought yet. Aside from exclusives like the Wal-Mart ultras coming out this fall, Universe is gone until fall 10.
Yeah dude. You're SOL. Try K-Mart. They're usually a month or so behind. Best bets are ebay, the Junkion Exchange, BBTS and HTS.
I live in Canada so we're already a little behind. I try to check all the stores. Zeddy's is a good bet, they always get Universe exclusives, just not the normal retails. As soon as ROTF is done it's run and they pull some repaints from their asses to continue the line like last time, Universe will probably come back strong. Most of my Universe buys are on impulse, so if I see anything cool, I'll be sure to pick them up. I'll leave the discussion to you guys since most of my probs are cleared up.
You can order with hasbrotoyshop over the phone. EDIT: Ohp, but you live in Canada, my bad didn't see that.
