    went to a different Asda yesterday at Great Bridge .....
    ... not a great selection but at least they had some transformers .

    There was a cyberverse scout Shadow Striker and Rachet , plus one step Wheeljack .

    Didnt buy them as my money was going on storage drawers for my already short of space transformers .

    IDToys have pre-orders up for the newly revealed Studio Series figures (Bumblebee, Soundwave, Arcee triplets and Hot Rod).

    That’s interesting, I thought they’re part of the Impactor and Mirage wave in October?

    Forbidden Planet Bristol has 2 Refraktors, 3 Red Alerts, 3 leader Shockwaves, 3 Galaxy Optimus, one or two Ultra Magnii and at least two Sixguns for their Siege stuff. Oh, and some Micromasters - Laserbeak and Ravage, Dropshot and Flak, and the first two car micromasters.

    Movie stuff they've got 2 TLK Drift & baby dino sets, 2x DOTM Leader Optimus, 1 DOTM Leader Megatron, 1 car mode Dropkick, 1 helicopter Dropkick, 2 WWII Bumblebees, and a ton of the older SS deluxe waves.

    Also POTP Grimlock x3, POTP Inferno x 3, Elita 1, Moonracer, Rodimus Unicronus, TR Brawn for £7, as well as Bee and Roadburn, a few Windcharger and the purple Dino lady....

    I think that was all of it.

    That’s pretty good for a Forbidden Planet. Whenever I visit them it’s extremely rare they have anything new and it’s all old SS waves and one or two Siege Micromasters.

    That was exactly the case until today, where they'd gotten a huge delivery over the weekend. Expect this lot to sit for weeks until maybe one or two new things turns up...

    I dunno, I believe they are technically the fourth wave of Siege Micromasters after the Sports Car Patrol?
    They've also landed at Notts Bots Co., so I've no clue what's going on. Did they send these to the UK by accident instead of the solid cases of Springer?!

    Very seriously considering making the trip to Bristol to grab one of those leader studio series primes even though it’s a 2 and a half hour journey.

    Unless someone in the area is willing to pick him up for me and I can paypal the money? I would seriously appreciate it

    Perhaps, Kapow has had a delay on Springer and they’re my go to so that could be right

    I may be able to but I think it would be a lot cheaper to order from somewhere online - he's already £50 in FP, then add postage of £3-4...I'm sure some of our favourite online places would have him for less than £50 delivered.

    I’ve already checked and sadly most are out of stock until September which is unfotunate.

    I’m willing to pay the cash if you would be kind enough to pick him up for me, I can PM you the details.
    i was about to buy a pack but I kept getting distracted damn

    I’ll be keeping an eye on it then in case my eBay shipment falls through. If I can find one in the wild I’m going to be selling the eBay copy if it shows up.
