    Thanks for that if that actually shows up that will save me £10

    When it first got listed on Amazon UK back on September 3rd it was available to order for £3.05 before it got taken down. Firestormers was also available for £35.

    Ultimately I am still waiting for both but I dont mind for the price

    Siege Deluxes are listed in the new Toymaster Catalogue for £17.99 suggesting the majority of Toymaster stores should be stocking them, if they didn't already.

    Just a heads up that In-Demand Toys sent me an invoice for the 90% outstanding on Generations Selects Lancer, saying she should finally be in stock today!

    Also, this may be old news but I noticed that Smyths St Helens had Omega Supreme physically in-stock (waaaay up on the top shelf, but at least he’s available in branch now!)

    Thanks a lot Hasbro UK, I just saw on ID Toys Facebook site that the last wave of Siege is now due November/December and I rolled my eyes so hard I detached my retinas.

    It seems to happen every year - someone at Hasbro must think January is the main toy buying period of the year.

    I really hope so. Sadly, there were rumblings in the Irish Sightings thread about an insider at Smyths saying they’ve stocked less of him than they did of Trypticon, meaning less big boys to go on sale :(  of course, it’s all worth a pinch of salt, so I still hope I can get ol rocketman for £60 in March

    I wasn't particularly looking. I just thought I'd mention those knock-off Technic sets because they were surprisingly good quality and decently priced and thought others might be interested if they were in B&M looking for TF Authentics. It's not often I buy proper Lego from B&M as they're usually only a quid cheaper than other places and I can get sets elsewhere with more off than a quid.
    I might check out TKMaxx though since I've not been in there for ages and now Christmas is near they might've put something decent out. I've still got some NanoBlock sets I bought back in the Summer from there and not gotten around to building yet.

    Just saw Siege Thundercracker available in stock for home delivery on Smyths website. No stock in store by the looks of it though ☹️

    In a colossally annoying turn of events, Smyths now say Spinister won’t be out until the end of January. Seriously regretting not preordering.

    Crosshairs still says week commencing Nov 14th. One of these dates must be wrong, as I doubt Smyths are buying solid cases .

    It does also say "-21st" so the window is still open, In Demand toys have also stated the last wave of Siege will be November/December so there's still credence for that but I'm also inclined to consider @Syndicator's reportage entirely feasible given Hasbro UK getting left spinning in the breeze by Hasbro central before.

    Heads up to anyone who is interested, Kapow Toys just put Unite Warriors Superion up.
    Not sure how many they have but my guess is they got ahold of some old stock.
    They're selling it for 124.99.

    He was reissued start of the year so it's not out the question they could have got some more.

    I recall they had some issues obtaining them at the time.
