    I still need to find Tailgate and Knockout legions, managed to find a Fallback thankfully though in the Oxford St John Lewis (only one though!)

    Haven't been to Makro for aaaaages,
    Used to be quite good for toys, as long as you remembered to add the VAT on :) 

    Cheers,

    How many Airachnids and Rumbles were there? Did you notice if there were any more boxes on the top shelf?

    Boswells in Oxford have got:

    Cyberverse commanders latest wave with Skyquake et al
    Latest Deluxe wave with Kup, Rumble and that repaint of Wheeljack
    Weaponizers
    Wave 2 Voyagers
    No FOC though.

    I picked up Airachnid. I got home and opened Airachid. I wish I hadn't picked up Airachnid.

    Tesco at Neasden had signs of the new deluxe wave (aka a single black bumblebee mixed in with a hotshot, ratchet and of course...bumblebees), but no Dead End or Airachnid in sight.

    They also had the black Bulkhead and Skyquake commanders...emphasis on had though eheheheh ;)

    Yeah, Makro used to be very good, but alas no longer.

    They also had wave 2 TFP voyagers (saw a Starscream) and wave... 3(?) Deluxes, I saw Knockouts, Hotshots but no Vehicons.

    Crayford Sainsburys had wave 4 legions briefly though I sort of cleared them out for myself and tikgnat :) 

    There's a rumour that the Sainsburys toy sale is due to start on Wednesday though I can't guarantee it!

    I've heard all sorts on that too :)  Some say its not happening this year others say it starts first day of half term or next week - just have to be ready and waiting :D 

    On another note nothing new anywhere - Tesco Southend had only up to wave 2 deluxes :/ Good job i've already got kup and rumble!!! :D

    Why does everyone complain about Airachnid? I got her yesterday from Gillingham Tesco (they still have Kup and Dead End, no Rumble though as I Bought him last week!). Airachnid is fine as far as I am concerned!

    Ye thanks for the name. They replenished the deluxe range this week but no basic HAs :( .

    Well its not a very good transformer when compared to other stuff in recent years. Limited Articulation and its doesnt look all that pretty.

    Trafford Centre Manchester :

    Boots: I got TF: Prime Rumble, Kup and Knock Out with the 3 for 2 offer. Still lots of Knock Outs and a couple of Kups left but I think I got the last Rumble. (I asked and they said that's all they had)

    John Lewis : Got a Vehicon! Had to ask tho, and a nice man got one from the back. Plenty of Hot shots and Knock outs on the shelf.
