I was completely baffled for about 10 minutes. Walmart even having a Scourge at this point? Haven't seen him in stores since before Christmas. Walmart ACTUALLY clearancing a Transformer (atleast around me), unbelievable. Even more so, MASSIVE clearance price, below even what they would put their extra Overrides at. And on top of all that, he wasn't even massively damaged or missing anything! I picked him up for sure, but I feel like I burned through 5 luck rolls and I'm never going to find anything I want for the rest of the year! XD
Bridgeton Walmart is in terrible shape. But interestingly, I did spot SS86 Core Ironhide. Did these already hit stores and I missed it, or is this a first? Also saw the Evolution repack of Blitzwing. No Armada Megs, his wave mate, to be found. EDIT: Apparently it was found at Target in April. So nevermind.
Sweet my Orion Pax and Senator Shockwave shipped. Now I just need Alpha Trion..... anybody got a extra?
Woo mine did too and while traveling back from vacation it was delivered! So hyped…wait a minute…. well crap time to reorder the Shockwave set and hope it’s not screwed up again.
Contact them. Somehow, Amazon had the product codes attached to the right prices, but swapped the pictures and descriptions. That’s why they were (supposedly) charging $55 for two Voyagers but $70 for a Voyager plus a Deluxe. Or, don’t contact them and…who knows what you’ll get?
Hmmm, makes since and all just must of missed that when it was originally talked about. I will wait for the other set to come in and see if it is correct. If not I will just return one.
Well crud, then that means those of us who ordered the Ratbat set are going to get the wrong one. And by that time they might not have the Ratbat set left to send out. I’d better not get screwed out of this set or I’m going to be really bummed.
Like 6 Minerva at the Walgreens on Campbell The are on an end cap at the end of the isle …near back of store
Fixed. And I'm very glad I ordered the "overpriced" "mutant Siege seeker with massive engines due to wing envy" / "Cloud Roadbuster homage" set in addition to the "bargain-priced" Ratboat / Megadrill set. Ratbat is...pretty darn good, considering he's my fourth version of the mold. The sides and top of the alt mode actually hold together better than...I forget if it was Scourge or the Sweep that was hard to fasten together and stay connected, or both of them. (Reverse mold degradation?) I wasn't about to leave him out of my non-cassette Ratbat collection, but he's basically what I expected him to be. Even so, the raised gold and blue detailing on his chest and alt mode head guard (Conning tower?) are very nice. Megatron, on the other hand, is surprisingly impressive, considering he's my...fifth version of the mold? (Siege, 35th Animation, GS Combat Hero, Earthrise—yep, fifth, so I wasn't expecting to be wowed.) Great choices on the plastic colors, great paint apps, shiny drill. Leaving aside the "poor design choices" for a mining tank that are beyond the scope of a remold like this (e.g., the front should be pointed more like a cowcatcher to direct rocks away, rather than have a gap), my only extremely minor complaint is that the drill is held in place in tank mode by two long tabs in slots, rather than pegs in holes, so it can't tilt up and down. ...On second thought, if there were pegs, they'd be sticking out comically and rather annoyingly when he's holding it in robot mode, so...complaint withdrawn. I think I'll hold on to my preorder for the other pair...I mean for this pair, since this was supposed to be the other pair...I mean.... QH, in the event that you can't get this set, and Amazon somehow sends me a second Ratbat/Megatron instead of Roadbuster Orion Pax/Shockwave in August for that lower price, I'll split the savings with you. (But I doubt they'll do that.)
Dude I had that same issue a few months ago, all I can say is to call them up speak to a person and ask to speak to a supervisor. Took like an hour of talking but I got my refund.
I'm supposed to get my Humble Origins tomorrow, but am fully expecting to receive the wrong thing. I ordered Rise of Tyranny as well, and am hopeful I'll get Humble Origins when it ships. Knowing Amazon, I'm probably gonna be screwed either way. If I try to get the right thing now, I'll get the wrong thing later. And if I wait to get the right thing later, I'll get the wrong one. Either way they're gonna screw it up.
So...we're all at an impasse on the Amazon 2-packs, right? My Ratbat/Megs set (which is supposed to be my Orion Pax/Shockwave set) is sitting at a UPS warehouse currently. And my actual R/M order has yet to be sent out. But if I somehow end up getting two copies of R/M, this is my official notification that I'll trade it for the other set. I've already paid the right price for both sets total, so the price difference doesn't matter. Do with that what you will.
