    50 dollars for Black Shadow? I'd rather wait for my preorder to come in then since I'm paying 46, I don't know if stores are still selling leaders for 40 but that'd be great to find Black Shadow that way... As for Brawn & Chase, yeah I too have them on preorder through BBTS but I'm going out of town today to see if I can find them at Meijers (as well as Broadside & some X-Men), if I do find them then yeah I'm canceling it.

    I'm just so glad I was able to get all of Wave 4 I'm missing, besides Perceptor & Kup, preordered on BBTS. Means I'm not going berserk because stores aren't carrying anything and I can just wait a month for BBTS to get them in and shipped to me.

    That would be great if my local Walmart, TRU and Target weren't still shelf warming PMOP, Seekers and Soundwaves (and all of their websites are terrible). None of which I've had any desire of buying. So when I finally spot a Phase 6er like Sixshot or Sky Shadow, I don't mind paying the 10 extra bucks considering how much I'm saving on Gas and time. Plus I'm under Amazon Prime so there's free 2 day shipping.

    I'm still waiting and seeing with Amazon. He looks a lot more fun than Sixshot.

    I picked this up from Wal Mart last week. He was missing a tailfin and had melted plastic in certain parts. Terrible QC and very little play value. It's a big block former. The top doesn't even really transform. His torso just basically lays down. Only the legs "transform" in any meaningful way. This doesn't bode well for Overlord unless it's really retooled.

    I finally found one today at one of my Walmart's. It would not even ring up at the register. It took another employee and two managers to find the price on it. It was the ONLY new Transformer they had for whatever reason. It felt like I found myself a bit of a treasure, haha! Anyway I am really impressed with it. He's massive but not in a terribly bulky way. Very impressive and imposing looking bot. It seems like the Titans Return line has done a great job with their Deluxe and Leader class figures but seems to still struggle with most of their Voyager sized offerings.

    ETA: Fount at Eastern Washington State.
