Classics 2.0 preordered, thanks bud!
Thundershot:
Got the Classics preordered as well...

For the two Ultras... aren't Ultra's usually 30 bucks a pop? I thought it was Basic $7, Deluxe $10, Voyager $20, Ultra $30, Leader $40, Supreme $50... Maybe I'm just misremembering...

Stores seem to include higher variation in their TF Ultra price point for some odd reason. I've seen it as low as $25, as high as $32. I believe the MSRP is $29.99 for them, making the price BBTS is quoting a bit surprising.

DOH!!!

Awesome, preordered Onslaught, Powerglide, Octance, Prowl, and Sunstreaker. I usually don't like paying the extra BBTS charges over retail but with gas being what it is I'm not driving all over The Cities looking for these things when they start hitting stores.
Thundershot:
That was my logic as well. Gas is supposed to hit 4 bucks a gallon this summer, and my math was:

BBTS PRICES SHIPPED < (GAS + TAX) + (TIME x HASSLE)

General Magnus:
I preordered them in case they donīt pop out here in Portugal. I was surprised we got most of the movie line, but now ít seems we havenīt got the last Allspark wave.

Chris
Yeah, gas prices are what prompted me to order as well.
Acidophilus:
Thanks for the heads up. I preordered the Classics, but just the new molds, mostly for the reasons as everyone else has said.

56.99 is a good price for Powerglide & Onslaught set. Cheaper than Wal-mart(with tax), and TRU charges.

So it's because of the case assortment that there is no single Octane/Tankor listing right? (x3 Prowl, x3 Sunstreaker, x2 Octane/Tankor) I mean at 11.99 for the other deluxes, it would have been a buck less not buy them as a set.
tamo536:
leaders preordered

since i am getting refunded on my early ones
Optimus747:
Pre-ordered Onslaught just to be safe, but I'm 99% positive I'll be able to find these on shelves this summer.
Lucs:
Thanks for the news Sean. I preordered Prowl and Sunstreaker cuz I'm gonna be running a store this summer so I'll have way less time to hunt That and my last job I was driving around the whole state and was able to hunt on the clock, was fun while it lasted though
Chainclaw:
Classics 2.0 ordered. Thanks mate
unicronhq:
more money spent on TF's....
bouncing boy77:
thanks for the heads-up, preordered!
xSEANxLONGx:
ANYTIME GUYS! I Was at Big Bad Toy Store as they were updating and I had to bring this to attention to the Transformers Community for I want everyone to get their hands on these toys when they come out
wipedout:
Got them pre-ordered. Only the new molds for me, no repaints thank you very little.

I pre-ordered because around here in the Tampa Area I find it extremely difficult to find any TF's. They are really bad about restocking down here, bunch of lazy beach bums.
Runamuck:
On the fence about preordering Classics 2.0. I am thinking I can just get them at my work.

Annnnnd...I'm waiting for Animated Leader Magnus preorder. Other ones don't interest me.
SmF:
Does anyone know what prices Ultra classes would be at say, Target?

If it IS $29.99 ... then I wouldn't see the reason not to pre-order..
SOUNDWAVE24:
coooooooooool
MagnusPrimal:
I preordered most of the Classics (sans Powerglide). And TFA Leader Megatron as well.
Beastbot X:
Wow, those prices are actually... reasonable.

Still, I never preorder the first waves of new TF toylines online, they're always VERY plentiful in stores.
Vampyr:
hop, the awesome leader animated megatron is pre-order
thanks to the web store
in france the distribution for the TF is....limited....
Dinobot Nuva:
Wish they'd list the Universe Legends for preorder so I could nab some.

Noisemaze:
I'll wait to see if I can get them from HTS with one of those codes.

Nope. MSRP has been $24.99 since the class was called "Giga-Con" in Armada.* Still is for Universe:

* - On Universe's first go-around, despite having the same name, the Ultra class was different from the main line -- no electronics or lights, no new molds -- and MSRP was $19.99. E.g., Tankor + Obsidian, Soundwave + Space Case, etc.

Target has typically been one of the few to have them at $24.99.

Railguard:

I just preordered what I wanted, but I think with HTS having the codes and preorders and such, my BBTS preorder will only last until HTS has them up. Fortunately there is no penalty for cancelling a preorder with BBTS. And of course if HTS never gets them or I miss out on them, then I still have these preorders. I used to prefer the hunt, but as other people have stated, gas prices and the like make hunting less and less enjoyable.
Johnator:
Thanks for the info!

Well then, good for Hasbro. But the price point has varied as much as I mentioned earlier if not more, which still does mean that BBTS isn't being entirely unreasonable in their price. Which you didn't disagree with anyway, but yeah.

As for the old Universe Ultras, they were based on the old, pre-Armada Ultra price point, which is why they were only Voyager-priced instead of the proper modern Universe price. Which also fits with the early choice of molds in the series, usually sticking to BW/BM and a bit of RID.

No...it hasn't even been sent yet! GRRRRRRRRRR!!!
Predaking:
Just ordered Leader Meg, Bulkhead, with BB, Grimlock, and Lugnutz with that 10% off code. Sucks that I can't get the free shipping but at least the 10% offset shipping and pay some of the tax for me. I now have all except the 2 pack and voyager Prime (going to get Leader Prime instead). Hoping and waiting for Blitzwing, which I will get two, and Soundwave to hit the store soon.

There is no Leader Prime unless you mean Supreme Prime...
