    I'm sick & tired of seeing wave 2 everywhere. In a few months wave 3 will be shelf warming & collecting dust. So I'm not wasting my time or gas right now. You guys should take it easy too. This overpriced crap will be everywhere soon enough.

    For people wanting to make sure they can put together a Reflector camera, trying to get that sorted out early is probably the better choice.

    *UPDATE* I was going to head to the Hixson Target and see if they might have springer. I stopped at Gunbarrel Walmart on the way.... look what was sitting behind some Megatron and Starscream figures. Suck it Target!!! Street date my ass. Didn’t have 1 single problem. (I self scanned just to be safe )

    Haha nice, I checked my targets this morning to see if they had made the same mistake but they didn’t just empty holes, but nothing else at the moment I may wait to get Springer just until he pops up and it may be this week but either way good find

    As I am thinking with me finding 2 springers in a matter of 24 hours, this figure is going to be plentiful. I just hope refractor is as well. I did score a Red Alert last night at Hixson Walmart

    I saw a Springer at the Walmart in Halls this morning. That’s a really good looking figure

    Oak Ridge WM had one Springer, left with me, and two Starscreams. There were no voyagers yesterday and now two Starscreams, so Im guessing someone else picked up the other one.

    Well that’s ******* depressing. I literally just went there to grab it, all they had left was Springer; I try to self scan it and it says it’s street dated for ******* July 28th.

    Confused every employee up to the manager who just says ‘can’t break street date’. Which, he’s right, none of them should endanger there job to sell me something just because some absolute cretin in a warehouse somewhere shipped a product over a month early or whatever happened.

    But damn. Just damn.

    They said they were going to pull them.

    Springer certainly looks good in person though.

    Check Walmart regularly, no street date issues. Oak Ridge and Halls had him so far...I’m sure Turkey Creek and the one near west town should have it out shortly, if not already picked up

    Aw man. Was about to head on over there and get him.

    Also, what you could've done was gotten Springer and another voyager figure that wasn't street dated and scanned it instead of Springer. That's how you get around the street date.

    So, uh, ended up going to Turkey Creek Target on a whim because why not, and found Springer there on the shelf all by himself. Anyways, took him and Megatron up to the you scan and did the trick. It worked and now Springer is mine.

    So here is my quick review of the Siege wave 3 now in know it’s not complete since I don’t have the wave 3 micro masters and the battle masters and I think Galaxy Prime is part of wave three but I had him for a while already and I think I gave a slight review for Galaxy Prime, but here a quick review for the Deluxes and Voyager. So starting off Red Alert is just a repaint of Swideswipe the only difference is the colors, the weapon, and it’s head it’s a good figure still suffers from issues from the previous mold but that’s really it. Brunt is awesome he just looks awesome I feel like he is built better than the previous weaponizers the only thing I wish is that he had hands but other than that he is awesome and looks great all combined with Megs, moving on to Refraktor now I have them combined up for the Camera Mode which is awesome looking I’ve never had the G1 Reflector growing up but I’ve always wanted it, but this figures look awesome the only downside with The Refraktor figures is that it’s the same figure wish they had alternate colors like in the eyes and chest and I may do that with mine, now lastly Springer is just awesome it took some getting use to just because tabs didn’t tab where they were suppose to and the directions just suck and I had to look up a review online but either the figure is great he scales well with the rest of the siege line and is about the same height as Megatron and Optimus and his alt modes aren’t bad I like the helicopter mode vs. his car mode but that’s just me so far I’m really enjoying this line I can’t wait till SDCC to see the next line in WFC whatever it may be next is Jetfire when ever he drops

    Jetfire is supposed to be July 1, and so far we have no indication of brick and mortar stocking that price point. I was gonna suggest Walmart or Target surprising us by having it out suddenly this week, but if it was Target they'd just put them out and refuse to sell them for another month anyway.
