    New Argos catalogue is out

    Has the new RID stuff plus Generations Deluxes and Voyagers

    Most notable thing for me is that they have a specific Catalogue number for Warrior Drift who is included in the picture for Warriors, Strongarm is not listed. I hope they have him tomorrow.

    Very late (since I just joined here yesterday) but Tesco Clarehall has had pretty much every "Target exclusive" released in the last two or three years. They also tend to deep discount without marking prices. I've gotten a lot of Cyberverse stuff there from 1 to 50c in the past (amongst other things). Always worth scanning stuff just to see how much it will actually cost you.

    Bought wave 2 cw from kapow toys. Had a discount to use so it comes out well under anywhere here. Delighted with kapow fantastic to deal with.

    Have preordered Apollyon. I'm sure it'll be fine. All the uk small retailers seem to have a good rep.

    Tesco Jervis Street has the remaining Beast Hunters Deluxes on sale for €6.75. They've only got one Soundwave, a few Ratchets and a buttload of Skystalkers left though.

    He's marked as in stock in a few shops around Dublin now, that or "available to order". Hopefully with RID wave two stuff showing, we'll get Combiner Wars wave two as well. I'd be much more inclined to get the Stunticons if I didn't have to import them

    So do we have any idea on when to expect Combiner Wars Wave 2, my Superion is looking awefully incomplete without Air Raid.

    The wave 3 figures are up for preorder with an April release date, I'd assume the end of April. Ultra Magnus has a release date of June.
    Wave 2 will probably start showing up mid to end of March, if I had to guess.

    I hope we do actually get wave two here, and it won't be like when we got the first wave of FOC deluxes and nothing after that. If I can avoid paying ~€35 shipped for an Air Raid, I'd like to

    I was in Kilkenny today and went into Ken Black there and saw a couple of voyager Roadbuster's ,voyager Skybite and a voyager Springer. Smyths and Ken Black are pretty much the same chain so maybe take a look in your nearest Smyths and you might find them too.
    No wave 2 combiners wars though.

    What was the price on them? I may be down that way soon and wouldn't mind a cheap Roadbuster.

    I didnt't see a price on them but I assume they're the same price as the combiner wars voyagers, €34.99 was marked on the shelf.

    Thanks. Not really worth making a trip down for them at that price though sadly.

    Ken Black in Carlow has a couple of voyager Roadbuster's, skybite's and Springer's in stock now too. Priced at €30. Smyths might have them too, anyone that doesn't have a Springer definitely needs to pick him up at least.
    Still no sing of combiner wars wave 2 yet, probably the end of the month before we see them.
    I did see some RID Drift figures, not sure if that's a new sighting.

    Toymaster in town has Combiner Wars and RID Deluxes now.

    Only Wave 1 of CW , but Wave 1 and 2 of RID including what I think is the first Irish sighting of Optimus as Drift has been available in Argos for a few weeks now.

    Also Smyths seemed to have put the price of the CW deluxes up from 19.99 to 21.99.

    Smyths in Carrickmines had a whole bunch of Generations Voyagers; Skybyte, 2 Rhinox, 2 Roadbuster, 2 Whirl and a Springer, €31 each. It was weird.

    The generations voyagers seem to be showing up in Smyths in the UK too.
    If Brainstorm shows up I'd be all over that one. As it is you can pick up Springer, Roadbuster most of the other voyagers on Amazon US for about half the price or close to it.
