I think that looks like some TR W5 Voyagers working their way into the "grey import" supply chain.....

Keep an eye on B&M!

 

Cheap(ish) Blitzwing would be very welcome. Let's see if it pans out......

 

I would take that with a huge pinch of salt.
Earlier in the year when I placed a FP pre-order for POTP Grimlock, I remember noticing the date for Blitzing was the same as the POTP w1 voyagers (Feb?).
When FP pushed back the release date of POTP w1 by a month or so, Blitzwing's date changed to December, which I thought seemed like an error at the time.

In my experience, FP pre-orders are notoriously unreliable.

 

I’m not sure how to link to Amazon using my phone but studio series Optimus is now only £24.99 on Amazon Prime.

If your Smyth's still has any voyager Scorn's left they may have been reduced to £20, as found in Eccles. Nitro is still £33, and the only wave 2 photo they have left is Rippersnapper. Oldham had 2 full cases out of the wave out yesterday but nothing else new.

 

Anyone want a POTP inferno for £49.99?

Elita 1 is on pre-order on Amazon.co.uk for £21.81 shipped, in stock 1St July.

 

Ordered. Good spot. Quick search of the site and there's no sign of Hun-grr at a similar price.

Does Elita One still share the same problems as starscream did?

 

Depends which problems you're referring to, mate, there's no major wing issue for her as she has the revised locking wing backpack and, at least to me, seems a bit less of a faff to get to jet, her stickers are still a crapshoot and can be frail and/or badly applied.
A common issue of her own is swapped feet though, quite a few copies have come with the left and right feet on the wrong leg (you can tell because they're moulded for and 'A' stance so they should slightly angle outwards). Though it's a pretty straightforward fix of taking the three lower leg screws out, plus there's one fraught bit to do as no matter how carefully you split the leg along the seam you'l most likely end up snapping a small glued post at the top of the back seam of the leg (I just dabbed a small amount of superglue on that edge to re-secure it after but it's not majorly structural you might get away without that). You have to fully split the legs to do the corrective swap as the foot plate is on a really long post, I advise against trying to just flex enough without fully splitting, you're courting disaster there.
Plus if you don't want to get into that the feet on the wrong sides doesn't effect her standing stability so you can just leave 'em if it doesn't bother you like it does me.  
Despite that she's still one of my favourites from the Prime Trilogy.

P.S.: Let me know if you see her with pink combiner feet instead of black, it'll be appreciated muchly!

 

Orbital Comics have/had Wave 3 Deluxes in. My Son picked up Cutthroat and Sinnertwin just now.



Orbital usually get Hasbro Asia imports but this one doesn't have the import sticker on the back.

 

Popped in to Warrington Cash Converters to look at their selection, Tracks had gone which was the one I was hoping for. They had Masterpiece Bumblebee, Silverstreak, Red Alert and I forgot the 4th one  

Bought the Red Alert for £29.99 and when I got home found out that a piece of him was broken...one of the back panels has sheered off. Also, the Red Alert at least is 100% the KO as to be expected, at the price they're selling them I'd presume the rest are too. Don't know whether to try and glue the piece back together or try and return it but i've heard that Cash Converters can be a PITA to get refunds from. Gonna try transforming him to see if anything else is broken. But for anybody else in the area who may have been interested be wary and ask to take a close look at the figures before purchasing. It's real shitty if the someone who sold it to them knew it was broke...

Also the Entertainer in Golden Square have 2 potp Starscream and 1 Grimlock for just under £20.

 

Three titans return swinferno figures in Harlow TK max for £7 each plus combiner wars Scattorshot has reappeared in the Entertainer for £20 each

 

Found the complete POTP Voyager/Deluxe Wave 1 in stock at the Aberdeen Beach Boulevard Retail Park Smyths today. Bagged myself an errant Rippersnapper, but that appeared to be the only Wave 2 figure in stock.

 

Me and my friend were looking at them all the other day, I’m pretty sure the silver streak was fake too it felt fragile and terrible paint job but he did get a MP takara prime for £80 from there and that was definitely real

 

That's US packaging though, which means these are imports.

 

Went back after work today and got my refund with no hassle, guy opened the box, and the piece fell off like it did to me, I explained that it won't transform properly with the broken bit, they seemed more annoyed at whoever accepted the figure (saying they mustn't of checked it over first) now where to spend that £30 on instead   what's that about potp Blast Off? haha
