    Just went to ASDA (Farnborough) to get a sandwich for lunch and decided to check the toy isle and they had a re-stock since yesterday. I bagged a Windcharger (the only one)
    If you luck out at Tesco and you have an ASDA local might be worth a try !!!

    Woo-hoo another Manc in this thread. Just dont have the will or strength to check any of them ATM so that's saved me a journey. Cheers.

    At least Asda has a sighting now and that's a lot easier to get to.

    Has Toyz & Gamez had Windcharger in stock? I ordered a Windcharger back in November when it was a pre-order but haven't received anything yet. Windcharger is now showing as out of stock on the website.

    Tesco Handforth Dean has loads of scouts but sadly just the HFTD wave 2.
    Has anyone tried the Tesco Home Plus @ Denton?

    I have also noticed MP Grimlock is back in stock on TRU.co.uk so if you missed him it looks like you have another chance to get him.

    Good stuff, was hoping they'd get them, I live in what can only be described as Asda turf.

    Nice to see some Scout sightings I hope we get the other sizes soon - Supposedly the Powercore Combiner Constructicons & Dinobots are sitting in Hasbro's warehouse so hopefully Argos & Sainsbury's etc might get them pretty soon.

    I wrote to Hasbro UK asking them if they plan to sell Star Wars Transformers again or indeed the Marvel ones but no reply yet - I hope they do as I think they Yoda and some of the others are worth a punt.

    Excellent! I go past an Asda every day on the way to work. I'll pop in and buy all they have for us!

    This is typical of T&G I'm afraid. I ordered some stuff on back order before Christmas which I was told would be in stock in 2-3 weeks. It is now in the 5th week without any TFs or updates and they won't reply to my e-mails. I'm thinking of opening a Paypal claim. Anyone got any advice?

    Give them a ring - things get sorted a lot quicker and they're totally decent (and in the middle of a move!!)

    They moved last year, I think your confusing that with Nick being on holiday.

    And yeah they will sort it asap if you give them a buzz :)

    I've used them several times previously with no problems. It's probably that they've just not received all their stock yet to fulfil pre-orders.

    Aye, So just learned my dad gave away 'all' well most of my transformers save for a few recent ones I bought that are with me here. -.- Can't say I'm happy one bit.

    Anyhoo Sightings for Glasgow.

    A1 Comics - Bunch of universe Stuff. Seaspray and Night ops ratchet along with the yellow long haul guy and Axor and Jetblade.

    Toys R Us, Parkhead - Has been reduced to 2 pegs. One with those rpm guys and scouts. Thats it. Zero figures in toys r us.

    Forbidden Planet - Nothing really . Some yellow packaged deluxes never really looked.

    John Lewis - All the insecticons have gone and now stands one ejector figure.

    Pippenstoys - Bunch of rotf stuff along with yellow packages deluxes. Animated leaders.

    Shit day for transformers
