    Still no new legends in the Rayleigh & Southend areas :( 

    Smyths has the Protectobots minus Groove, Tesco has a selection of RID, same for Sainsburys. Checked both the toymasters too. One literally has a couple of construct bots, the other a mix of AOE power battlers, a couple of old BH bits and a few thrilling 30 voyagers.

    Not a sniff of Rodimus, Warpath or Skywarp anywhere

    I generally don't keep the packaging so I can't get a pic :/ this was a couple of days ago now.

    But I definitely saw viper on the bottom of grooves box and huffer on the bottom of skywarps

    Definitely Viper (and I think Huffer) on the bottom of the packaging for Groove. Just, y'know, to rub it in.

    I'm sure Hasbro UK has some cardboard stands for the Stunticons it could start putting up (and not fill), just to flick us in the balls a bit more.

    Yuptea, Our Sainsburys has the Legends wave too (Stanway), Groove and Rodimus are well nice, but a tenner?
    Wait, I have Sainsburys points, Batman, to the french-made station wagon!

    One each of CW Rook and Cyclonus into TRU Cribbs Causeway along with RID Deluxe Wave 3. Looks like they also had Marvel Legends Ant Man with Wasp being the only figure on the peg.

    John Lewis has RID Deluxe Wave 3 along with Legends Fixit and Underbite.

    Funny thing is I drove past that sainsburys today and thought to myself " I wonder if they have groove in? Proberly not."and drove right past. Oh well at least that's a tenner saved...

    No Legends beyond wave 1 in the Huge Sainsburys Colliers Wood or the Wandsworth one today.

    I don't reckon our chances on Viper in the wild.

    Found the groove and warpath legion wave in the Crayford Sainsbury's, typical as I've just bought them elsewhere but it would've only saved me a couple of quid so I can live with that :)

    Basildon TRU had all those legends on Saturday - I bought a Rodimus and Skywarp and left one of each plus a groove and 2 warpath - so they've come and gone really!

    Ant-Man marvel legends are also out in force now - I spotted them at TRU and somewhere else (possibly amazon uk?) in full force at the weekend :)

    Damn it! :(  I was in there this afternoon, not a sign anywhere. I didn't even see a price tag for them. They must have come and gone like a whippet. I was in there Friday as well they weren't there then either.

    Were they with the rest in the main aisle near the Marvel and Star Wars stuff or the other end bit over by the bikes?

    Main Aisle - there was just one peg of them though with indeed no price tag on the front. I got them early Saturday morning so they must have been gone by the end of the day!

    Well I never. Can I have a picture of the entire cardback? The International ones are completely different.

    Anyone got the cardbacks from their UK CW Wave 1 Legends? Were there co-sells there?

    Because payres asked me, here are Warpath and Viper's European cardbacks:
    [​IMG]

    Viper bought at Müller in Germany, Warpath at Real. Both chains have all three wave 3 figures.

    Rodimus and Skywarp haven't been found in Germany yet.

    So i would imagine Viper and Huffer are somewhere, surely.
