    I know this probably isn’t the right place to ask however I am growing quite concerned and was hoping someone was is in the same situation as me.

    I recently pre-ordered SS Grimlock from Kapow Toys and paid the remainder of the deposit about 2 weeks ago. They stated on the invoice that they’d be shipping from 3rd April- 8th April however then said on there Facebook that they hoped to have sent them out by 10th April. I am still to receive a notification and am beginning to think it’ll never arrive. Has anyone ever had this issue with Kapow?
    Thanks!

    Kapow are great, occasionally they get delays due to stock arriving late with them, which I assume is down to shipping or the individual companies that supply.
    Send them an email, be patient though as they have a shed load of customers.

    A run down of what's in Basingstoke Entertainer:

    TR Galavatron (£27!); TR Hot Rod, Twinferno & Triggerhappy (£20); TR Sixshot (c£30); TR Seaspray & Cosmos (£14); TOTP Rodimus (£35); TOTP Roadtrap, Battleslash & Tailgate (£11); Cyberbattalion Optimus, Bumblebee & Prowl (£12).

    With the RID & TLK stuff that was there (can't remember what) I reckon that's the most TFs I've ever seen in the place.

    A proper toy run for the first time in weeks.

    Orbital have an abundance of Rippersnapper but nobody else left at the Deluxe end of things. MP Targetmaster Rodney, TT Clones and Brainstorm, POTP Elita 1 and the Prime Masters.

    Forbidden Planet had TR Fort Max for a less than competitive £158, POTP Starscream and Dreadwind and a Solitary Studio Series Ratchet - if anyone needs that POS. They also hilariously had MP36 at the front counter for £256 and MP Artfire for a far more reasonable £149.

    And by reasonable I mean fucking stupid.

    Went into Great Yarmouth Sainsburys earlier in the week to see a separate stand to the toy section with RID stuff on it, most particularly Crash Combiners Primelock and Saberclaw for £18 each and Twinferno and Groundpounder Legions for £8 apiece. Apart from Groundpounder, this was the first time I'd encountered the others out in the wild. So glad I resisted then as, when I went back in at the end of the week, the Crash Combiners were now on offer at £13.50 and the Legions at £6.
    Failing that, I also spotted the Legions for £7 each in the big Yarmouth Tesco.

    Also Sainsburys, Tesco and Asda were having a bit of a sale on Lego should anyone be interested. Compare prices between the stores though as some discounts were better than others on the same item(s).
