+1 for Spinister into Bath Entertainer - they also seem to have found a case of wave 1 from somewhere as they had Hound and Sideswipe on the shelf that weren't there on friday - store only opened in December, so would guess it's a distribution thing rather than finding them in the corner of the stockroom - nothing else of any note..

 

Hound. Sideswipe & Cog are repacked in the w5 deluxe case Generations 2019 Siege of cybertron Deluxe Wave 5 set of 8 (SIDESWIPE, COG, HOUND, CROSSHAIRS, SPINISTER).

 

ah, that does explain it!

 

I’m going to be pissed if FP in Coventry have all of wave 1 this weekend when I drop in, I don’t get paid until next week!  

 

SHUT THE FRONT DOOR! We finally get some new stuff there

 

That bludgeon and whirl and wheeljack in the same packaging have been out in the U.K. since before Xmas in toymaster and toyworld stores, posted in the sightings back then. I was tempted with whirl but at £12 for such a basic figure I couldn’t justify it lol

 

Well if you are local to Thetford and go in there regularly - I'd welcome to know if they have any of the series 5 lime green or series 4 Blue bubbles on the shelf, the other stores in the general aread i've been able to check all have a large glut of Orange bubble series 3 items so many it may be a long time before they'd want to restock - but if another store has them it might be worth me making a special trip to Thetford.

Thanks

 

Good Luck!

 

For those of you who haven’t seen it in the FB world,
The ‘Wind of change’ has, as expected, blown through Tesco,
And the TLK Deluxes are down to 7 quid from the questionable 14 they were stocked at.
From memory, Berserker (one for the ‘Clerks’ fans there), Scorn and Barricade (‘Fat Fighters’ edition) – almost worth it for his Robocop gun,
Highwood’s Colchester didn’t have any Bumblebees.



As the Scorpions would say themselves –
‘Like a stormwind that will ring the freedom bell’


.......Actually, that may not be relevant.

No new Earthrise figs in Bristol FP yet. they had good stock of previous waves- inc. SS Shockwave.

ID Toys have new stock of Selects Hot Shot too. Transformers Generation Selects Deluxe Hotshot

They also have ER leaders available. But ER voyagers and battle masters sold out, and deluxes don’t arrive until sometime in March TBC.

 

I'm praying that Hot Shot is still in come next Friday  

Hopefully with everyone jumping on the Earthrise bandwagon I might have a decent chance.

 

I was told that they received a healthy shipment of 48. Now no more than 47 left in stock!

You should get in touch with them. They may be able to put one aside for you. Maybe with a small deposit...

Good luck! Hope you get one.

 

Hahahaha... Those paper wires around Optimus.. reminds me of a movie from Japan..
Hentai Kamen  

 

Fareham Smyths has tons of Siege, way more than their website said.
Optimus, Megatron, Starscream, Thundercracker, Hound, Sideswipe, Apeface, Springer, Spinister, Crosshairs, Refracktor, and a couple of deluxes I can’t remember the names of.

they also had SS Starscream and Cogman for £15 and £10 respectively

I might be heading to every entertainer and Smyths between Brighton and Southampton tomorrow, got some time off work and my birthday is round the corner so time for a treat and a hunt! I’ll be sure to post my findings,

 

Has anyone seen the BotBots series 4 5-packs out in the wild, by any chance?
I’m looking for this one in particular, and don’t fancy playing the old “Amazon lottery” unless absolutely necessary...

 

Just received my Earthrise Starscream and Grapple and my Starscream is missing his Null Rays! Gahhh how annoying, will see what Kapow can do about it.

 

So definitely don’t believe the stock checkers for Smyths and Entertainer! Here’s what I found today:

Smyths Portsmouth:
Jetfire, Omega Supreme, Optimus, Megatron, Starscream, Thundercracker, Springer, Sideswipe, Hound, Spinister, Crosshairs, Apeface, Impactor, 2x SS Blackout

Entertainer Whitely:
SS ‘07 Starscream
Soundwave, Starscream, Refracktor, Spinister and Crosshairs

Smyths Hedge End:
Omega Supreme, Jetfire, Megatron, Springer, Optimus, Starscream, Thundercracker, Apeface, Sideswipe, Hound, Cog, Skytread, Barricade, Mirage, Brunt, Impactor
also managed to score SS Grimlock for £30!!

overall pretty good day, came away with Thundercracker, Soundwave, Barricade, Mirage, Grimlock and Refracktor.

 

SS KSI Boss still available on amazon. Get it by saturday if you have prime.

Battlemasters in York B&M (Clifton Moor). Not many left at all so guess I was lucky.



Sorry for the iffy pic, literally quick snap after putting them in my boot!

 

No Battlemasters in my B&M. Either someone keeps getting to them before me or the stock out there is very limited. They have had a very good sale on Lego there though.

As far as I could see today, my local Tesco branch doesn't have a single TF figure in it.

Found these lollies in Home Bargains though:
