    Cheeky sods - The Entertainer has put Springer up from £16 to £23. Still not in stock, of course, as has been the way forever. Still £12.49 (and out of stock) on TRU.

    How much are the CW deluxes appearing in Tesco for?
    I visited our local branch last night but there were no signs of them just yet.

    Re: The Entertainer - wake me up when Brainstorm appears. Really looking forward to him becoming available!

    You mean IF he turns up..... Don't get me wrong I'm hoping he does as he looks awesome and I'd grab him in a heart beat but as non have been seen with the other voyagers past few weeks I'm not so hopeful. Fingers crossed tho

    Wasn't Brainstorm in a different wave to the others though? That's probably why he hasn't been sighted with the others just yet.

    I think it was mentioned in the UK TD thread that amazon.com have it available to ship to the UK, £50 all in.

    Glad to help. That's what this thread is for, imo. It was the one in East Ipswich (Ransomes Europark) if that helps.

    Was in Gloucester TRU on Easter weekend and noticed they still had one YOTH Optimus on the shelf. The box was a bit knackered with some damage to the plastic windows, but it looked like the figure & accessories were all fine. Sorry for not posting about this sooner!

    edit: Also, FP Bristol have a couple of leader Jetfires and a couple of revised edition voyager Brainstorms - full price though (£50 & £23).

    Probably already been mentioned way back during the movie merchandise, but I found these AoE watches in the Norwich Castle Mall Poundworld last Friday:

    [​IMG]

    Also picked up RID Warrior Optimus and Drift in Norwich Entertainer. Staff seemed a little miffed they had to climb into the window to get them for me. Should make sure there's stock on the actual shop floor if you're going to display them in the window to entice customers.

    Must get around to checking Yarmouth B&M to see what Gen Voyagers they have now. Been busy working the last couple of weeks so I'm kinda out of the loop there. Come visit me at Pleasurewood Hills. :) 

    And additionally, I picked up an AoE 'Flip/Smash and Change' Optimus Prime, with sword, for £1 at a car boot sale yesterday. I think that might be the fastest I've encountered a TF figure going from store shelf to car boot sale stall. I mean these things are still being sold full price (around twenty quid?) in some stores.
    Although to be honest, I'm kinda expecting to find a lot of AoE stuff dirt cheap at car boot sales this year.

    Best car boot sale find though was a baggie of TF odds and sods (mostly Micromasters) for 50p and in it was Snapdragon's Nebulan partner, Krunk(?).

    Just updates really, TRU Ipswich no Gens, not much of anything of interest really, Stanway Smyths have put their wave 1 CWs up to full price, usually the sign they are due something new, or will flog them off, they had Road, Whirl, Rhinox and Sky Byte gens, at 22-99 or 29-99 (!), will they half them?
    Nothing new or any redustions in Sainsburys.

    The usuals in B+M Stanway, no gens, in there was the best thing I saw all day, an Iron Man Mr Potato Head, cool!

    CW on 50% off clearance in Sainsbury by me. Bombshell for £5 was an easy pick. Not sure if this is nationwide.

    Sainsbos

    Interesting - the Sainsburys near my work has only just got wave 1 of CW in, and despite having 25% off RID stock, the CW deluxes were full price. Will go back there tomorrow and check, though. Might check the other Sainsburys near home as well...

    Was this on deluxes too?
