    Uncle Joe is from round here too, and there are a couple of other North London guys that occasionally drive/bike it this far North.

    Hi! I was in my local Forbidden Planet (Aberdeen) on Thursday and they'd just had a delivery which which included some Transformers Prime.
    They hadn't unpacked the box but I did look inside it and it had three Bumblebees and one each of Cliffjumper, Wheeljack, Soundwave, Ratchet and Arcee.
    I nabbed the Ratchet and Arcee!
    Hopefully after seeing them in FP and with Asda also distributing them we should see the next wave of Voyagers soon too!

    Just bought PRID Ratchet and Arcee at Asda in Corby.

    They were right at the top of the shelves, with no pricing nearby. Looks like the complete contents of a Wave 2 case, as there were three Bees and one of everything else.

    They clocked in at roughly £9.72 each (don't have the receipt to hand), so quite a bit cheaper than elsewhere

    Saw the Target Ironhide/Leadfoot and Megs/Bumblebee 2-packs in a couple of places - £8.99 in Boyes, £9.99 in TK Maxx. I picked up the Megs pack for a fiver in Tesco a couple of months ago, so pricing fail there.

    That's a pretty good guess...it's only off by a penny! They are £9.73 each (I have the receipt in front of me ;) )

    Cool, thanks for confirming it for me! :)

    Unless the order changes, you won't see wave two voyagers until a few weeks after dx wave three

    Asda Cannock yields Arcee and Ratchet, as well as a spare CJ for an upcoming Dr Wu upgrade, too. Same price as already stated?

    Any shops selling cheap RID powerizer Optimus Prime toys atm?
