Save the money for one of the upgrade kits.

 

Hold off for a little bit longer. Right now is absolutely horrible when it comes to toys and distribution. A lot of stores are delaying their Christmas reset because of how slow it's been in getting the figures needed to fill the aisles. As the last thing they want is to do a reset and clearance what little they have now and then be left with nothing. But that said stores are going to begin receiving figures within the next month or so. It's going to be lighter than years past but it will happen. And this also means that websites such as Amazon are going to begin having these figures pop in for retail price. The other thing I would suggest is keep an eye on Hasbro's eBay page. That's how I was able to get my sound wave. And because it's such a little figure it's also an easier one for certain stores such as Kroger to get in. And I wouldn't be surprised if Walmart has the core class as one of their dump bin items. As other said hold off on getting sound wave so that you can potentially use that money for other things.

 

Tracks should be arriving next week. I can taste the disappointment already.

 

yeah, hold off on not paying MSRP for Core Soundwave. The figure will be repack on Kingdom wave 4 so lots of opportunities to get it. For example I never saw ER Arcee at any of the dozens of Walmart/Target I went to and never saw the figure for MSRP online either. But since the kingdom Arcee repack, the figure is now readily everywhere and is a shelf warmer in most retailers.

 

Might as well get a reissued Soundwave for the next line.

 

Patience

 

Yup, mine should be arriving in a week as well.

I'm prepared for disappointment as well. It's pretty bad that I'm getting him just to check him off the list, and not because I think he's a good figure...

 

Haha, thanks all, I know patience is the thing. I don't usually get antsy, it's just frustrating when I actively try to get something and my efforts are continually thwarted. My 40th being next week might also be affecting me...  

 

Happy Birthday bro. I got you beat by 3 years.

 

So Galvatron is arriving July 30 - August 8.

 

This just updated. Figured as soon as I ordered the instock one from BBTS Amazon would be sending this out. Oh well time to start the separate Tracks collection.

 

Glad you asked, that seemed to get wheels turning.  

Core Soundwave should be here on Saturday, Tracks just got an e-mail update with the new range of the 28th to August 7th, with the tracking info showing it's in Georgia at the moment. No movement on Rodimus.

 

Kingdom Tracks shipped. Hopefully here tomorrow.

 

Tracks is out for delivery

No Rodimus though.

They charged me for both but only shipped one. I think thats an error unless they are going to start charging the entire order when items come later

 

It's always good to have alternate pre-orders. I got Tracks pre-ordered with both Target and Amazon. Got the email this morning for a delay approval from Target, and I approved it. Lo and behold, I also got an email from Amazon that I got charged for Tracks, and is scheduled for delivery today! Once I get it in hand, I'll cancel my Target order. LOL.

 

as far as modern day collecting goes…

 

Thanks. Yes, most definitely joking....unless someone wanted to pay that amount to me.  

Actually offered to sell Kingdom Soundwave for $11 if they picked it up from me in the New York Sightings section.

But I agree, be patient and don't overpay for Soundwave.

 

anyone who order tracks the other day did your tracks ship?

 

I ordered mine yesterday and it shipped today.

 

Oh thanks then I shall be expecting him soon
