    I also bought a preorder stuff from Hasbro official Shopee and they told me ETA is Nov, while dept stores and toyshops are already selling them weeks ago. Wont be buying preorders from them anymore.

    There are 2 ways to fix it. One is to rotate the arm around but means the tank threads cant lock in place and u get a peg hole showing at the shoulder. The other is the brute force way to pry open the shoulder piece and it looks so scary. Seem a few videos on it...

    Went to this store in plaza sing called movie replicas collection , was surprised they have core Soundwave inside, it says $20 , ok on! I buy…

    Took item to the counter, the old man say u need to buy set of two! (I can show you a picture - it doesn’t say it anywhere visible… a big card would be good )

    then I went back to the shelf - they only had the green Dinosaur core class which I didn’t want - so I went back and asked - do you happen to have Megatron? If so I’ll take megatron and Soundwave . He angrily walked there and ask me “u got eyes or not? Where megatron? Don’t have then don’t have”

    I put everything back and left. It wasn’t that there was a lot of people there - he was not busy - he was making himself a tea.

    I happily support brick and mortar stores but this kinda attitude especially during covid will not bring them returning clients

    Will never buy anything or support that store again - Crazy fella!

    A quick look at their google maps review show a hundred 1 star complaints saukfm the same thing - I guess I’m not the only one


    So ya if u wanna try ur luck with core sound wave for $40 (set of two with green core dinosaur) and get yelled at can consider going there haha

    I've also heard a lot of bad reviews coming from some customers.. all share the same sentiment that their staff is really unfriendly and not professional. Luckily i never bought something there cuz most of it is overpriced!

    Core Soundwave I saw some at OG Orchard and Taka last week, if you buying it at $20 might as well.

    Plaza Sing not much reason to go after Simply Toys switch to Funko only and Hamleys shut down. The two shops selling TF there is friend-friend one so no competition for them really, they can anyhow charge the tourists.

    Don't want to name names, but I personally feel, for some weird reason, that most people who run TF shops are either weird or rude, or sometimes both (model kit shops also a bit like that as well).

    The only good experience I have is from the peeps @ Falcon Hanger, but then again I don't frequent these shops often, so could be just me.

    Totally agree with u there. That's why I only buy from dept store where possible.

    Any bros interested in coming together to form a group buy or is there already one existed?

    stopped stepping into that shop years ago, I do agree they are eccentric at times... So rather buy them online or department stores instead... TFH is ok thou, i do po from them depending on items....

    if you want core soundwave, can try OG Albert or Taka... else Amazon, in stock after 17 July..

    I only visit mostly roborobo and TFH to get figures earlier and cheaper than retail and their services are pretty good, though prices and the way they sell may vary according to figures and availability. Other than that I go for department stores and TRU since those 30% discount all very worth.

    Just curious, do yall think kingdom red alert will be TRU exclusive like siege Ratchet and ER bluestreak since all 3 were walgreens exclusive?
