Mostly good news for us! I'm looking forward to the "A Hero is Born" 2-pack, since a part of me still regrets not getting PotP Optimus for the Orion Pax component. Also, Alpha Trion and the Vector Sigma prop look great. I already ordered a Red Cog through The Falcon's Hanger, but I love the opportunity to pick up a couple more. Thanks a lot! ~L~
The Wreckers (well, some of them...) are up for order on TFH right now (window closes tomorrow morning). Think this is a good indication that they're on the move everywhere, so Amazon really should have them soon.
Yes, as people have noted, since the Velocitron series is just a next set of exclusive toys for Walmart in the same format as the Netflix series, Kmart is getting the Deluxe and Voyager figures, while EBGames (and maybe Amazon) will get the Leader. The toys will be released August-September, and EBGames already had the Leader listed for pre-order, but took it down after a day, as they may have sold out fast due to the wrong price listed. .
While I'm at it, the other info about exclusives from last week... - Vintage Beast Wars - the release schedule for Australia at BigW (subject to last minute change of dates, as only two of the June toys came out in June)... June - Scorponok (released) June - Wolfang (released) - August - Cybershark August - Retrax August - Terrorsaur August - Tigatron (delayed from June) - October - (toy yet to be officially revealed) October - (toy yet to be officially revealed) .
The official release date of Wave 2 was July 1st (which is why people have seen some retailers already selling them), but Amazon have mid-August on most of the items and won't change it. JBHifi had a release date for wave 2 of July 28th (yesterday), but most of the stores were putting out the stock as soon as they got it in the last couple of weeks. .
I had Tarantulas pre-ordered through Amazon. Cancelled it today. Wandered down to JB Hi-Fi on Chapel Street and picked him up. They didn't quite have their stock out on shelves yet, but the friendly staff were good enough to find one out the back for me.
Was at JB Browns Plains today...what a massive selection of toys since I was last there. I had a good look at Legacy Knock Out in hand and decided to pass. Bought Doctor Strange 2 instead
Big finds at JB Hi-Fi Highpoint Not sure if everything is in the photo, so here’s what I found: Legacy Core Shockwave Legacy Core Hot Rod Legacy Deluxe Elita-1 Legacy Deluxe Knockout Legacy Deluxe Drag Strip Legacy Deluxe Wildrider Legacy Deluxe Tarantulas Legacy Voyager Jhiaxus Legacy Voyager Soundwave Legacy Leader Blitzwing Legacy Leader Laser Optimus Prime Legacy Leader Galvatron Kingdom Commander Rodimus Prime Studio Series Core Ravage Studio Series Deluxe N.E.S.T Bumblebee Studio Series Deluxe Ratchet (Bumblebee) Studio Series Deluxe Arcee (Bumblebee) Studio Series Deluxe Sideways Studio Series 86 Deluxe Kup Studio Series 86 Leader Junkheap Buzzworthy Bumblebee Worlds Collide Pack Shattered Glass Collection Deluxe Goldbug Generations Golden Disk Collection Puffer and Road Ranger Generations Golden Disk Collection Jackpot and Sights Generations Golden Disk Collection Mutant Tigatron Generations Golden Disk Collection Terrorsaur Transformers Collaborative G.I. Joe H.I.S.S Tank Megatron
Yup, JB Hi Fi in Mildura looks like that today too (but all crammed into one bay of shelves, rather than spilling into bins, and packed to the back instead of just one row at the front the way other places do it). And it is glorious! Only went there to grab a Knock Out (the only thing from the latest wave that I couldn't order online earlier this week) and leave, but spent a bit just admiring the view. I am very much enjoying JB's latest expansion into collectables, and I imagine that the people who go for Star Wars and Marvel toys must feel the same way. How do we make them keep doing this? Cos this is far more than Kmart, Target, or BigW stock, far quicker, and for the same damned prices. (My JB also had Legacy deluxe Tarantulas, the previous lot of Kingdom cores - Megs and Screamer -, and 3 Kingdom Cyclonuses). Also, I spotted a lone SS86 Perceptor at Target today.
