    oh god, i despise these amazon exclusives! - Coneheads i've had to source from a guy in HK (tiny bit more expensive, but comparable to ordering from Amazon.com) - should be here in a week or so - The Autobot pack is driving me nuts - orders on both sides of the pond and both are stuck in limbo - although my UK one has now updated expected date to this saturday (14th) where it previously had january 21, so that might be progress? - will cancel whichever doesn't dispatch first

    also, has anyone with ER wave 3 deluxes from Kapow not had a dispatch note yet?- ordered the full set and have not heard a peep.. (have shot them an email to enquire..)

    Smyth’s Netflix season 2 VOYAGER figures not arriving until early December.

    Bumblebee and Elita 1 still showing as due this week.

    I had assumed that they were always all being released together- maybe I got that wrong.

    Soundwave will be mine eventually!

    Bee and Elita were showing October until a week ago then had no date at all. They only just changed to the November date.

    The Voyager 3-packs have been listed as Early December since the dates got written up on the listings, I'm hoping they don't slide later like the Wave 2's have!

    They were in Hong Kong when they came out a month ago. I grabbed both Voyagers and BB from Robotkingdom while they had them

    Careful getting Enegrax out the packaging, he's in real tight and I busted one of the wing clips popping him out...... and sent the wing spinning away across the room!

    I hope this isn't a silly question - but has anyone in the UK actually had stock of Tigertrack yet ?

    Do you mean shops or people? It was an ID toys exclusive if I recall correctly.

    Edit** it wasn't an ID exlcusive... according to the page for him, he's still 'coming soon'

    I'm just rather keen to get some of these obscurist things before we all mentally move on to the Kingdom line.

    IIRC there's no UK stock of this one and they're all imported which may mean availability is a tad more limited

    Colour me interested in going in with you and splitting shipping costs if the individual has more than one remaining and if that sounds favourable to you, my friend?

    Anyone else that's ordered these sets but had no success had any movement? It still tells me my American order is arriving Friday but it hasn't shipped yet, and no payment has been taken so I'd be surprised if it did.

    Amazon froze the money on my account on the 2nd of November, but the set didn't ship till Sunday night. I have just checked and it says it's departed Castle Donnington already and says Arriving Saturday. However the last time a package (The Coneheads) left Castle Donnington it arrived next day.

    *** Quick Edit ***

    It's been updated and will be arriving by 8pm today. It's with my local distribution centre already.

    Anyone else who has ordered the Autobot Alliance 2 pack from Amazon.com found their tracking to not been updated? Mine shipped on the 3rd to arrive by Friday, but the tracking just says data has been received and no other updates. Concerned that it may not actually arrive on Friday as it says! :confused: 

    Wish I could get one from Amazon UK!
