Hiro Prime:
Hey Guys.
I was at Wal-Mart tonight picking up a few TF's while they were restocking and saw a Deluxe case box marked wave 9. I, of course, want to pick up the figures but was denied when the stock guy showed me a sticker on the case marked Streetdate November 11th.
So start checking your local Wal-Marts a week from tomorrow.

Wai, whoa whoa whoa, Say what? From Revenge of the fallen? Could it be? No, who would it be? You shoulda asked if you could see whats in it. I'll check wal-mart like constantly, and try to get one open. Wow.

I believe the first wave of NEST figures are in wave 9. If I remember correctly it's suppose to have Brawn, Ratchet, Lockdown and the new Sideswipe repaint.

The first wave of NEST figures is Dirge, Tuner Mudflap, Armorhide, and I think a BB repaint? Still, It's definitely not Ratchet/Lockdown/etc., as much as I want most of that wave.

You are correct, Peaugh. I checked over at TFArchive and they have the figures you mentioned as wave 8. The ones I mentioned are listed as wave 9 which was what the case box said on it's side. Hmmmm. I wonder if they mislabled the case assortment.
starscream1701:
Hmmm... Sooner than expected.
MrSoundwaveGuy:
I still haven't seen Swerve, Arcee, or Thrust yet. Luckily no oneis this wave really interests me except for Dirge....maybe
Scantron:
Excellent, glad to hear there's potentially more stuff coming out soon. I'm only planning to get Ratchet, Lockdown, Brawn and Dirge out of these two waves, but it'll still be nice to have some new Deluxes to hunt for.
As far as Wave 9 coming out before Wave 8, it wouldn't be unprecedented to have the release times for different waves mixed up. After all, Wave 5 (Scorponok, Arcee, Swerve) hit saturation before Wave 4 (Blazemaster, Twins, Jolt, Dead End).
Ethereal:
Damnit! My wallet can't handle all of this product hitting at the same time!
Omegatron1:
New figures during holiday pricing time are a good thing.
xanthax:
I was wondering what these were. I saw a box at one of the wal-marts here in town a few weeks back. Been checking the stores a few times a week to see if they hit the shelves. Thanks for the streetdate!

Agreed, not sure if this is a blessing or a curse.
Fuzz:
I saw the S7 truck repaint at the new Hamburg, NY Walmart on Sunday.
Optimus747:
I'll get Lockdown now, and hope to get the other stuff for Xmas.
TornadoQuakeX:
Only want Dirge out of the first NEST wave. Wave 9 will be mine!
Hey, will the BB vs SW two-pack be part if wave 8? Might get that too.
Angelwave:
Hmm...well I'd figure we would start seeing them this month. But most towards the end of it or the beginning December, like always. But dang, yeah, we need those Holiday sales to start kicking in.
Ravenxl7:
Interesting. I was hoping this wave wouldn't hit till next year. I've got enough to worry about getting in the next two months as it is. Though this only adds two more to that list (Lockdown and Brawn), plus distribution has been quite slow around my area, so it's not all that bad in the end. It also helps that there aren't any figures in Wave 8 that I plan on getting.
OmarJT82:
Is this for real? I mean for real, for real?
blackout501st:
awesome! no way! sweet! now i wont half to wait until next year to get these awesome figures! 11/11, which probably means i can score them before xmas.
AniProwl:
I can't wait to get Lockdown and Brawn.
Deadend:
I'm digging that ravage and a few others. But mostly I just want to know when the 3rd motorcycle is coming out already.
Street date for em will be nice though. It'll make grabbing lockdown and ratchet that much easier.
OmarJT82:
I hope that they will cost $10.00 at Wal-Mart just like the figures that are currently in stock!
tomagnus:
nice I really want that brawn

and lock down is a good possibility!
tf7:
dang it. I can't believe i'm gonna miss out on all of these just for the sake of saving up for a leader screamer. Still...
rivalarod:
YEAH! i get my DIRGE before christmas

Damn, I've seen TOO MANY Swerves, Arcees, and Thrusts for months now! And I live on one of those areas that seem to get this stuff LONG after everyone else. Where are you at? Saturn?
Anyway, I'm looking for Brawn as of next week because he looks great!
eagc7:
wave 9... what happened to wave 7 and 8?

Wave 7's Thrust and Gears
Anyway, good news for me. I've been wondering how long we'd have to wait for Dirge, Ratchet, Lockdown, and Brawn
iceburn9:
Was wondering the same thing too ..
With Thrust and Gears in wave 6 .. Dirge, Alliance Bee, Tuner Mudflap and Armorhide in wave 8 .. Lockdown, Ratchet, Brawn and Sideswipe in wave 9 ..
Whatever happened to wave 7 ?
longhaulfan: 
WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY I am going to be broke those figures are awsome!!!!!!!!!!!I will get every one of them!
Thundershot:
Lockdown is the only one I want, but I wonder if we'll see the newer voyagers before Christmas too... I want Bludgeon!
Wheeljack_Prime:
The preview wave is often called wave one by some places, so the rest of the waves are raised by one number.
Wave 1: Soundwave/BB
Wave 2: Sideswipe/Rampage/Sideways/Breakaway
Wave 3 Wheelie/Chromia/Brawl/Skids/Smokescreen
Wave 4: Ravage/Cannon BB/Mudflap/Barricade
Wave 5: Jolt/Dead End/Blazemaster/Ice Cream
Wave 6: Scorponok/Arcee/Swerve
Wave 7: Gears/Thrust
ShockWave_AZ:
Thanks for the great info. I want that Dirge!

Ah, okay, I wasn;t aware of wave numbers, just thought it odd that the figures we've already seen in-hand pics of would come AFTER several that we haven't even seen any in-hand shots of. Even better news if that's the case.
Luxor:
dammit my walmart hasnt even gotten wave 5
Toxicon:
Great news if true. I'm dying to get Lockdown and Ratchet. Brawn looks boss, too.
aey103:
I am a bit skeptical about this. Aside from the initial release of the 1st Two movie lines (and I guess preview waves too), has a random wave in a Transformers toy line ever had a street data? I don’t mean to call the original poster a liar, but I will wait until someone actually posts a picture of the case saying Wave 9 with a Do Not Sell until 11/11/2009 before I get excited.
Lumpy:
i just want my dirge ASAP...and maybe lockdown and maybe brawn...not sure i want any of the others...
Matterzero:
Awesome Lockdown will be mine in a week.
Hiro Prime:
Hey guys, I know a kid who works at my local Wal-Mart overnights. I'll ask him to look for the case and to take a pic of it for us with his cell phone when I see him tonight. That should clear up any questions or doubt posted here.
NGW:
Gonna have to see if I can pick myself up a Lockdown after I get paid then I thinks.
Paxtin:
And to think I honestly thought my TF shopping was done for the year.
Funny enough, I have a dental appointment on the 11th. So if this ends up being true, I may just head over to wal-mart to have a looksy.
How nice of a reward would a couple of new Deluxes be after an unpleasant trip to the dentist.
tfan123:
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT? That. Is. Incredible! But, I only want Brawn from wave 9, and Dirge and Armorhide in wave 8. So, can we expect Human Alliance to be out soon, eh?
stratonrye:
I'm sorry to change the subject, all you guys are all talking about release waves and stuff, but I'm still stuck wondering who the heck is that turquoise and yellow jet. Could that be a Waspinator?

It's Dirge
Octavius Prime:
Excellent. Christmas toys after all!
At least Dirge, anyway. I don't really care for the others in this wave. But it's probably a safe bet that the BB/SW 2 pack and some voyagers will hit around the same time as these deluxes.
TornadoQuakeX:
I'm so excited!! I just heard from this girl I work with that also goes to the same college as me says that due to Veterans Day we will have no classes on the 11th!! ^___^ Those figures are as good as mine!!
ghowildseven:
That's getting close, can't wait for it to hit the pegs.
