    I just found out that wave 2 of Transformers revenge of the fallen toys are in Canada now. I would just get the fallen and leave Ratchet for voyager,but what would you get first for deluxe? Skids, Brawl, Chromia, Wheelie or smokescreen?

    I got all 5 of them from Target who was selling them since May 29. Skids, Chromia and Wheelie are in the movie. Smokescreen looks ok and is a G1 name. I heard they improved the arm joints of Brawl, don't know if it is true.

    Going for Skids and Wheelie. and from what you saw it was from Newfoundland.. might be a week or so before Wave 2 hits the other provinces.

    Everyone, just choose one. Razorwing, you'd be amazed on how fast Walmart's shipping is.

    I did, they are both on the same level that I want them. So technically, if they are even, they are one. And for Walmart, a ton of Toronto Walmarts don't even have Wave 1 DLX's out. so. there.

    I voted for Chromia since I've really warmed to it, but Skids is also a logical choice since it's the character in that wave with the most prominent role in the film.

    Skids may be a tough find once the movie comes out and kids see him on the big screen.

    Some ToysRUs stores have wave 2 : Skids, Chromia, etc. All deluxe on sale for $8 so that should make the choices easier.

    Skids is pretty cool. Chromia is probably my least favourite out of all the ones I have got so far. The bike is cool, but the bot mode does not do a lot for me.

    Skids is an excellent toy and definitely the best in the lot, so I'd recommend that one first. My personal ranking of them:

    (1) Skids
    (2) Brawl, assuming it's true they fixed the shoulders
    (3) Chromia
    (4) Smokescreen

    - Not ranked - Wheelie, as I haven't opened it yet.

    Wheelie is not to be underestimated. He's huge in robot mode, and an interesting design all round. Not for everyone, personally I like him as much as Skids, if not a bit more.

    Bought Skids and Chromia a week and a half ago. Both are awesome. Not interested in the repaints and going to wait for Legends Wheelie

    Strangely, at my Toys R Us, Wave 2 was out before Wave 1. As in, the initial stocking had preview and wave 2, and no 1s, but I found a wave 1 box off to the side.
