    Same here, all I've seen are the Protoforms and first wave Voyagers. Got Blackout from Woolies today without any hassle at all. Worth checking your local branch in case more stock gets put out, I know I'll be checking every couple of nights if I can make it.

    When I stopped by Argos yesterday they had the pages for the Movie merchandise already in the catalogue. Single page including the Alts, It wasn't in one of the larger catalogues it was in one of the smaller ones that was on the upright display above the catalogue.

    Is there a way of choosing from the multi-selection items in Argos? I don't want another Soundwave or Rodimus P!

    Scribble the catalogue number on the slip then go up to customer service and do what knook advised.

    Gaaah, Argos have caught on, if you tap the product numbers into the stock checker now it says 'not yet available'
    We'll all have to wait until saturday now.
    Titaniums are half price though so that's something.

    Oh and as for the problems with getting the half price offer - I had trouble on Sunday getting one of my alts half price cos one of them was 20p les than the other. Basically what happens is they put the most expensive one in first, the you have to tell then there's an offer (it doesn't seem to automatically come up) and the computer will then list items you can have for half price (i.e. cheaper ones). The silly cow at the counter kept putting the slightly cheaper one in first cos I wrote it down first and saying 'It doesn't the other one one there'. Which explains why you don't automatically get a half price deluxe when you buy another. I wish they would list the characters separately like they used to when i was a kid instead of as an assortment under one catalogue number. grrrr.

    If Starscream has been sighted, then there should be Ironhides to be found as well.
