Also Japan stores are so much better at keeping stock. Also had a pretty nice display at a couple of stores

 

I'm wondering if someone will see these photos without noticing the context and go "OMG! WHERE IN OHIO IS THIS STORE!?!"  

 

Aaaaaand MPM-6 broke during the first transformation. I contacted Hasbro we’ll see what happens

 

Sorry to about this! I hope Hasbro can come through for ya!

 

Only stores overseas stock like that, unless you've been to transfans and they do stock like this in similar ways. Otherwise, step into your time machine and dial it back to the 80's and hit up Children's Palace and TRU where toys was stocked from floor to ceiling!!

 

Man... you are completely leaving the Toy Department out of this one.. thats a real step back into the early 90's--- even some of the same stuff for sale!

 

I opened this up,just now,and was I got to go. There,then I got to the bottom of the post

 

I’m banking on the fact that both releases are the exact same other than writing on the box that they’ll be able to replace it

 

Made a hunt in Milford and Eastgate Saturday afternoon, nothing notable, specifically Wave 3 Siege Deluxes. Only place I didn’t hit in that area was Beechmont Target

 

I left the The Toy Dept out of this because I was comparing stores that stock new items from like Hasbro and other companies. The Toy Dept does not work with nor get anything new in stock from toy companies or manufactures, its ALL based on collectors in the community far and wide. Heard this from the owner himself. Unless something has changed very recently, like in the last 3 weeks.

 

Tri-County Target is dry unless u need a Siege wave 2 deluxe or leader. They had 1 BS Battle Droid...which I bought...to hug things...

 

Siege Leader Shockwave = shelfwarmer

 

The figure is a good toy, he’s just unfortunately the repeat figure in the Wave 2 Leaders which also has Galaxy Convoy

 

And it’s not helping him he’s 50 dollars, and unlike UM looks in box like a voyager with extra parts. His wave mates are also voyagers plus but have a much more integrated look.

 

I anxiously await picking him up for $20 on clearance.

 

For the stores I’m seen him at, this is the wave 1 release; stores barely have any TFs.

 

Any chance of helping me out with BS Battle DroidS? I'm needing more for my Gen Grievous army.

 

I'll keep my eyes peeled...I think that was the first time I saw one in-store.

 

Thank you! I know collectors are army building him and the Mudtrooper from the Solo movie.

 

Update on MPM-6: Hasbro is replacing him with a different figure of equal value. However, I’m not sure what that might entail since he’s about $135 in the States but I only paid about $100 for him in Japan. I tried to get credit so I could get Siege Jetfire but that wasn’t an option. I’ll update what I end up receiving back
