    Toymaster Jervis had a bunch of Titans Return wave four legends, deluxes, and leaders as of yesterday if anyone's still looking. Didn't see any Broadsides, but I might have just missed them.

    They had about half a dozen Galvatrons too, weirdly enough. No Sentinels that I could see

    They also had TLK leader Megatron and the usual wave one stuff

    Nope. You can trade in old figures and merch for store credit though and get your discount that way

    I gave some stuff into them a few weeks back. Their store credit is reasonable enough. You can message their Facebook page telling them what you have to trade in so they can give you a price before bringing it to the shop itself

    And no, I didn't go to the convention

    Picked up Power of the Primes Rodimus Prime, Cloudburst, Skullgrin and Metalhawk today in Ken Blacks in Kilkenny.

    They had Optimus Prime too.

    I've also heard they're in Ken Blacks in Portlaoise.

    Just chanced upon those today. What a blast from the past!

    Bludgeon's been on my want list for almost a decade, so that was easy. I don't think he ever got a proper release over here before. I'd been making do with the Banzaitron version of the mold, that I found up north.

    I hope this makes some some of the local kids as excited as I would've been. These may not be the best thing Hasbro's ever done, but they're decent figures, and very affordable.

    Quick note about bludgeon, age has not been kind to the rubber parts, they were rock solid out of the box.
    I had to soak them in hot water for 30 minutes to get any movement out of them without fear of breaking.

    Well they have been gathering dust in a warehouse somewhere for nearly 10 years

    ... I doubt these have been stored in a climate-controlled environment! The ones I looked at all had droopy cannons.

    The sellotape on the box pealed off like it had barely any grip left. Haven't really looked at my one, but I held the sword in front of a fan heater for a few seconds. Have to be careful doing this sort of thing, but I got it straightened out and I think it will be fine. The other bits weren't so bad, but I may do them later.
