    From when I went on and bought them, they had been up since 7:00 a.m. here in Rhode Island. They may have very well been up for sale earlier than that time.

    Which would then mean it was roughly 4:00 a.m. in California when they were on sale.

    It was 5 minutes before 4:30 p.m. here in RI when they sold out, so it was around 1:25 p.m. in California when they sold out there.

    Yeah, that's still early for some people and I can see why they would miss it. Curse those timezones!

    The early bird catches the exclusives!

    Don't hate the buyer, hate the timezones!

    It obviously seems like they put them up for sale at a time early enough to accommodate buyers in Hasbro's home state by letting them place their orders and still be at work on time. *joking*...*maybe.*

    I made my purchase of the exclusive Mighty Muggs Optimus around 6:30 am, Eastern, and the Con exclusives, including Soundwave, had been up since 6:00 am.

    Ordered 2 for back up. This will be good sell or trade bait if HTS has sold them out. Also ordered Wolverine and 12" Baroness. Soundwaves SOLD OUT about 30 minutes after I placed order. According to some of friends that attended convention, those are the only ones left. Hasbro both panel mentioned that to friends when asked. At $69-$89 these suckers are selling like HOT CAKES on the bay. Soundwave will always be good character. These will be GREAT COLLECTORS ITEMS.

    Honestly, I wouldn't get your hopes up. Yesterday, they were up by 6:00 am, EDT.

    I'd still keep an eye out, but it's not worth refreshing every second of the day for.

    I hear ya, I got back too late to order, and it wasn't a major thing on my mind to do. Like I said, "oh well", if I wanted it that badly I would have made some extra effort to get it. One of those things, now its gone and I'm slightly miffed for not being on top of it when I had the chance...

    Damn, too bad I didn't read about this until 8:30 pm when I got home from work yesterday =/, I probably would've bought Soundwave on an impulse.

    My memory's fuzzy, but I believe the second set of nemesis went up in the afternoon of the second day. HOWEVER, for the record, last year was the only year that a second set went up. The previous years, Nemesis Prime and Hot Rod never came back. Hot Rod did end up showing up in Australia though.

    Not true. Hot Rod did eventually come back on HTS...it was just jacked up in price because they were AFA Graded.
