Interesting that they've made it into shops before they even got listed on the website. Been a while since that last happened
Legacy Metalhawk is available for delivery on the Smyths website Hopefully the deluxes aren't far behind
All of the SS ROTB figures barring Scourge are no longer listed as pre-orders at BigBangComics in Dublin, so it seems they're in stock. There's also a lot of other figures in stock there like Origins Jazz. Great shop I'd wholeheartedly recommend, excellent and friendly customer service.
They really are. Ive been using them since the beginning of Kingdom. I dont order from anywhere else for mainline stuff. I recently received my Ss Cheetor and Airazor and cheetor arrived with a broken shin and they sent me a brand new figure and didnt bother asking me to send the broken one back. Theyre really nice people and its a great store
Also have a really good alert on what's shipping in and when - either keep an eye on their socials or sign up to their news letter, you'll know the Thursday before what's coming in the next Wednesday - for example, Skyquake, the Wave 2 deluxes, and core Ironhide are due in this week
BigBangComics have a newsletter? Looking at the site right now and I don't see any option to sign up but maybe I'm just blind.
Got it, thanks. Looking at their past issues it seems they've had Battletrap in since the 13th or so. I guess that means they're saving shipping out my order till Scourge comes out. I had pre-ordered Battletrap, Freezer and Scourge all in one go to save on the shipping cost but I guess they must send the orders once every item is available and not individually. Which makes sense. Hopefully Scourge is sometime soon but he hasn't shown up anywhere yet so I'm not too hopeful he'll be this month like what I thought he was gonna be.
Yeah they'll ship once the whole order is in, unless like all but one arrives at once (happened to me with evolution wave 1 - Slug was a few weeks later)
ROTB and the next wave of Legacy Evolution are now on shelves on Smyth's and thankfully they've given some more shelf space for TF's again, at least a bit Still nowhere near as much space as the glory days in 2000's though
I emailed Big Bang Comics today, they said they'll be getting Scourge in between April 4th and April 6th. I imagine that'll be the same (give or take) as when Smyths gets it in.
So what are the chances smyths and toymaster get the mainline rise of the beast stuff in? Really hoping they get most of them as a lot of the stuff look really cool
Apparently Scourge has a "street date" about a week after that and they've told retailers to observe it. Good odds it Will be broken though. Once one retailer does it....
Here's hoping. At some point I might ask Big Bang if they'll stock them, I doubt it but it'd certainly make my life easier because I could just throw in some of those weaponisers into a bigger order. Not sure if Big Bang ever really observe street date, they're a... well "mom & pop" probably isn't the best way to describe it but they're sound, regular people and not corporate. They sent out Tarn on like, January 25th or so. I think as soon as they get Scourge they'll be sending him out. I sure hope at least. Was also wondering, where do you get your used figures from? Ebay.ie can have some decent deals but mostly just price-gouging and the shipping costs are outrageous for some reason, even to EU countries. Donedeal? Adverts? I'm curious as I want to snag some more older figures that are considered "essentials."
Tesco used to get stuff that would have been store exclusives in other stores, like those Platinum Edition multipacks back when they had a more diverse toy section Nowadays you be lucky to find one-steps in tesco
As it turns out I was wrong, Big Bang are going to observe Scourge's street date. They'll be sending him out so that he arrives in accordance with the April 10th sell date it seems.
