Great...more reasons no one will be able to find wave two POTP voyagers...retailers are treating this line like there's an actual movie out - studio series is all I see out in force right now.
I am struggling to man. I never even saw wave 4 or 5 of Titans Return. Hope to see at least a little love with POTP. But most likely I'll end up getting them online.
As of yesterday: Fenton walmart had 1 Inferno, 4 Grimlocks, & 1 TR Broadside. Fenton Target had 1 PoTP Blackwing Today: Grand Blanc Walmart had 1 Inferno & 1 Grimlock Thanx for the Ollie’s post about Trypticon. I got the last one in Waterford last Friday. Found Quake & Krok at the Flint Ollie’s!
Fenton Target: 1) Rodimus Unicronus. Grand Blanc Walmart: 3) Potp Grimlock, 1) Potp Inferno, 1) Potp Rodimus Prime
TRU Flint, Pontiac (Summit Place), and Novi have pretty much nothing. I been to all three in past 2 weeks. Maybe a cpl of the most common prime masters & titan masters. That’s about it!
Hey guys, I haven't been out much lately and then the two weeks I've been out of town. Has POTP wave 2 Prime Masters shown up anywhere finally? I hit a few stores on Thursday, partially to take stock of what's out there and enjoy being home and having a nice day to get out and about, as well as using some coupons before they expired. Also, I buckled and picked up Grimlock at Walmart, Slag and Swoop at Meijers, so I'm guessing that we're in a weird drought of wave 2 deluxes as well. POTP isn't winning me over, but at this point I'd like to complete the Dinobots and the Prime Masters (Who I've really been enjoying).
Here is what happened, from what I have gathered from sources and first hand accounts: About 2 or so months ago Meijer got in a new shipment of Wave 2 Deluxes and Prime Masters while Target got the Voyagers. They sold insanely well so they ordered more... and Hasbro sent the last remains of the Wave 1 stock. Since then most stores have sold very little of the Wave 1 stuff and thus it is less of a drought and more that we are flooded with the wrong stuff. Also keep in mind that Hasbro's own website hasn't put up the Wave 2 stuff so it is still out there... just waiting to be released. I wouldn't be surprised if we begin seeing a massive push in the next month or so for wave 2 and 3. That said, if you can afford it, buying a box from Entertainment Earth or Bigbadtoystore would honestly be your best bet. I did that to get Wave 2 early and in the end it cost me shipping plus roughly 1 dollar more per figure than I'd pay in store... but I saved on gas.
Different Topic: Anyone in the Rochester/Auburn Hills/Washington/Hall Road area who hits Targets... rumor has it that the Jurassic Park legacy Spino is suppose to begin showing up in stores by the end of this month. If anyone sees it please let me know. I really want one to be facing off against my Legacy T-Rex.
If this is true, Hasbro can't seem to help shooting themselves in their collective foot...can't they, by now, figure out exactly which assortments are selling? They have to know what they shipped and when. I ordered wave 2 deluxes from EE...and I was paying attention to the boards so I was able to pick up a couple of extra deluxes plus one each of the wave 2 voyagers...I hope wave 2 hits again for everyone else before wave 3 hits the saturation point and clogs shelves.
Megatron is at Lenox Meijer, Brawl was sold to someone from what I was told a few hours before I went looking I'll post if I find anything new for JW. I got the Legacy Rex, and three legacy figures (Grant, Ellie, Muldoon), Blue, and the Owen that came with baby Blue. I got my Young Rex deluxe figure from the TLW line from my dad's place and he is now Rexy's baby
