    Has anyone found Siege deluxes at Walgreens?
    The stores I've been to still have POTP Terrorcons at different degrees of discount. Others have been without deluxes for weeks, with the space empty or filled with Cyber Battalions or MLs.

    They will probably get Siege figures the same time they start stocking Ratchet.

    That's what I've been thinking, but wanted to ask anyway.

    I'd rather just see 100% Ratchet, at least for a while. He's much more of an A-list character than their previous few TF exclusives!

    The toy reset doesnt come down till 9/13 so probably wont see any till after that. Sometimes if we get new stuff in ahead of the reset we will work out out to get it on the sales floor but that would still likely be Sept before it starts coming in.

    I THINK the last two years, ML exclusives hit Memorial Day weekend for online orders. Usually a Thursday or Friday.

    Not a Ratchet sighting, but some encouraging restock news. From Walgreens Utica, NY. Not sure if they rang up at $16.99 or not, I didn’t check. 1 Brunt, 2 Red Alert.

    I don’t know if my Walgreens is in the middle of a reset, but they seem to have gotten rid of the mainline Deluxes, and expanded the WWE figures in its space...

    Got my hopes up when I saw this thread updated. :lol 

    But seeing Siege of any kind at Walgreens is a promising sight. My Walgreens are full of POTP and those boxed simpler TFs. Forgot the name of those.

    Not likely. They probably just came in on warehouse and a worker just stuck them on the shelf where the previous deluxe were.

    Reset is still a couple weeks away, common practice is to remove clearance items when they sell out to not leave empty gaps on shelves.

    Does anyone know if these will be available at Duane Reade stores in NYC? Technically the same company...

    I CAN ANSWER THIS! Lmao. I live in NYC and i asked an employee in Duane Reade this. They said that DR does sell other Walgreens exclusive toys such as pop figures and some star wars figures so theres a possibility that they will get ratchet too. I asked if they had gotten last years wreck-gar. She looked at me like I had 3 heads and said I'm not sure. I thanked her and walked away.

    I checked our inventory system again today and there has been no change on estimated date for our warehouse to have Ratchet in stock 10/7.

    If it's the same guy from the Cybertron Cafe FB group, he only posted this image.
    FB_IMG_1567734159129.jpg
    No image of a receipt, he said there was only 1, and there's an Asian language sticker under the title (not sure if other packaging has that but it's similar to other items I've purchased from the UK before).

    This post from @Lazerwave shows a Canadian (i.e. North American) release with no Asian language sticker:
    War for Cybertron: Siege Appreciation Thread

    I have my doubts as to the veracity of this guy's claim myself.
