    In case nobody else has mentioned it Smyths are selling off their Titans return Soundwaves for 19.99. At that price I might even get one...

    Plenty of CW Sky Reign limbs in my local B&M store in Clevedon.

    Picked up a Trailbreaker to replace my teeny CHUG version and a Smokescreen to fill a gap for now as think I'd prefer a Henkei in my collection.

    Hadn't realised that T'Breaker was part of the 'Lynx King' sub-group?! Prefer the name 'Sky Reign' to that.

    I just cannot bring myself to pick up that dull Wheeljack. I also really dislike CW Sunstreaker even though his alt mode is cool. Happy to stick to their Classics versions in my display.

    Right, bit of a random one. Cash converters in Warrington (Near the Looking Glass Wetherspoons) have pre-owned Masterpiece Sunstorm for £34.99 I think, and in the window they had a couple of 3rd Party Transformers:

    This DO 1 Dinosaur King Grimlock for £24.99, almost got it, looks complete, he took it out of the box for me to look at, have no need for it but was such a random find I was tempted haha. They also had another Dinobot 3rd Party, think it was Snarl? not too sure on that one as it was hidden behind other boxes and the guy had already gone to the trouble of getting the Grimlock down for me to nosy at. Think the snarl was around the same price as the Grimlock, maybe a little more like £30-£35

    Wish the Norwich B&M's would stock CW Prowl!! I'd buy a 2nd to custom a barricade in a heartbeat. Sadly nothing so far and probably wouldn't now the 2nd lot of repaint autobot cars are popping up

    To add to the B&M Sky Reign limb sightings, our local larger B&M (we have 2) also had plenty of Starscreams and Skywarps - none of which they had previously.

    Unlikely - Skywarp & Starscream together is CW Leaders w6, which had a limited UK retail release.

    United Kingdom Transformers Sightings

    and

    Thundercracker was Wave 2, which didn't get UK released, but might have been grey imported at some point - my head is going TK Maxx, will need to check. EDIT: yup, lots of TK Maxx for £29.99.

    How much were the Gen Jetfire's that appeared in B&M? Weren't they £19.99 originally? I got mine for a tenner though...

    I'd hazard a guess that Starscream/Skywarp will be £24.99

    Didn't somebody on here already post a pic that they were £19.99? Could have been on Twitter, come to think of it.

    Picked up the Leader Starscream from Smyths last week for £5 on clearance. Was missing 1 of his small blue guns, but 5 quid for a leader I ain't complaining.

    Smyths had plenty of Wave 3 TR Voyagers for £18.99 alongside some CW Onslaught and Scattershot for £14.99. As for Deluxes some Wave 2 Highbrow and Mindwipe, with a case of Wave 3 (I think) sat on the top shelf. As for RID red/white Drift, Bludgeon (Autobot?) with others, and I think the prices were £17.99.... Nothing much into Asda other than remains of Wave 1 Titanmasters and no idea with TRU.
