Ireland Transformers Sightings

1 per case with Arcee, regardless of if it's wave 2 or 3...and it's probably 2. So everything else is the same four DXs we've seen for the last several months.

I dub this line Prime: RIP.


Any faint hopes i had, Peaugh and Optibotimus dashed for both figures.

I don't know if it's of any relevance, but Smyths have changed the picture of the Deluxes on their website to Knock Out, and the Legion figures to deluxe Hot Shot.

Hmm, that is interesting, the fact that they even went to the bother of changing it is pretty interesting.
I guess it may mean they are at some stage going to get different waves in.

They still have Voyager-Commander Optimus listed though.

I think at this point I might just give up on the mainline and move on to Cyber-verse. Seems like it would be easier to collect, given that more figures are readily available.

I wouldn't be surprised if next year's European 'range' focuses heavily on Bot Shots and CV to the point of substantially excluding other classes.

Retailers generally stop putting out new product by about the end of Sept....we're about six weeks short of that, and what we have so far for this year is the approximate sum total of sod all.


CV commanders have grown on me, but those alone aren't nearly enough. Is it just me, or is this the worst drought of new product actually AT retail since the first RID, or Beast Machines?

Yes, Energon and Cybertron were both 6 months late...but once the lines were launched, there was a fairly steady supply of new product.

Are Fall Of Cybertron figures expected to come out here ?

If they come out before more PRID stuff I will be very worried for PRID, do commanders even have any new molds to come out ?

I just really want Deluxe Arcee,Voyager Bulkhead and Starscream

If that is all that comes out I would be happy enough.

FOC toys were meant to start shipping around the 22nd.

Next CV Commander Wave is Skyquake and a blacked out Bulk. Not even out in the US yet, and Hasbro UK may skip that wave in anticipation of Skyquake being a repack in the next one, which he probably will.

His green is a bit more muted in person.

You're being a bit pesemistic there. We're up-to-date on Cyberverse, we've got the Weaponizers, the wave 2 and 3 stuff that's shown up is Euro stock, and is showing up in UK supermarkets, so that's a retailer issue, not a distro issue. We didn't get FE, but then, who did? The only thing we're behind on is Voyagers. It's pretty certain we're getting at least some of the upcoming Generations toys, so we're getting sub-lines.

Same with DotM; we didn't get the last wave of deluxes, but that's nothing new. We were a bit short on the HA stuff, but wave 1 being Bumblebee and Skids again was responsible for that. Other than that, we missed out later waves of HA basics and Cyberverse vehicles, probably, but that was the biggest omission, and they may have shown up at Argos but nobody noticed because nobody can be bothered to check regularly. I can keep going back, but there's not much point. We're far beyond the days of Beast Era and initial RiD distribution.

I did say AT retail. Availability of anything beyond wave 1 Dxs in the UK is still sporadic.
Wave 4 hit US retail a good month ago. Wave 2 Voyagers several months ago. Unless bulkhead and starscream are repacks in whatever wave is shipped next, if its shipped at all, you can probably write them off too.


I never mentioned FE at all, nor did I go back as far as BW.
