    I'm still looking for everything from Wave 2 onwards. Also 3 more copies of Swoop for customising but that's beside the point. UK's distribution has been quite frankly, horrific.

    I'm very impatiently waiting for the other three Terrorcons to drop.

    I'm also really looking forward to Optimus Primal, Outback and Firestar.

    The rest of the Prime Masters.

    MAYBE Nemesis Prime.

    Repugnus (if it's technically classified under PotP).

    I hate saying this but I'll probably wait for Predaking to get clearanced. Normally I'll support the Titans at full price but I just bought a new house so I have to be pickier about the more expensive items, and I'm just not overly impressed by Predaking. Seeing it in person might change my mind but there are too many wonky design choices IMO.

    Still waiting for:

    Wave 2 Titan Masters
    Wave 3 Terrorcons
    Wave 3 Titan Masters
    Repugnus
    Predaking

    Gave up looking a couple of weeks ago and picked up Blackwing from an Amazon seller for $22 shipped. Never seen him at the store.
    Pre-ordered the TT Hun-Grrr for $45 since I haven't seen the Hasbro one in a store, and don't expect to. Got lucky and saw Rippersnapper, Snarl and Sludge once, and glad I picked them up when I did.

    I'm skipping a lot of figs in PotP as I either don't like/want them, or cannot readily find them. Don't understand why HasbroToyshop of all places doesn't even carry them.

    So far I've picked up Swoop, Slug, Snarl, Sludge, Grimlock, Rippersnapper, Vector Prime, Liege Maximo, Micronus, Tailgate, Beachcomber, Windcharger, Roadtrap, Battleslash, Dreadwing and Blackwing.

    I kinda want to pick up the Rodimus Prime, but if I'm honest I don't really need it since I already have both versions of TR Hot Rod, and I'd rather wait for the next MP version.

    I actually gave up looking for wave 2 in stores long ago and ended up ordering Blackwing, Moonracer, Rodimus Unicronus, and Hun-Grrr all from Entertainment Earth for exactly retail price at the end of April plus free shipping over any order over $99 promo code from their printed catalog (2103172). Moonracer was actually only $13.47 since it was a 'not mint' box. Shocked to find out in hand that 'not mint' by Entertainment Earth standard is basically minor shelf wear like when you buy off the shelf from your local Target or Walmart.

    They ship each individual item as they arrive and only charge you for the item that ships each time, which is actually pretty sweet. I basically got one minty fresh Transformer a week in the mail for the month of May.

    I was lucky enough to find the wave 2 deluxes a few days after the initial sightings at Walmarts here in Oklahoma. They were findable for about a week in my area. None since then. Wave 2 voyagers hit some stores here a couple weeks after initial sightings but now have dried up. Wave 2 Prime Masters never appeared here but I got them on Amazon for about $10 for Alpha Trion and $12-ish for Alchemist.

    As for what I am waiting to find:
    Wave 3 Deluxe, wave 3 Prime Masters, Outback, Inferno, Leader Nem. Prime, Shuttle Blast-Off (probably), deluxe Repugnus (probably), Counterpunch (maybe), Leader Primal (probably), Predaking (maybe).

    If Walmart ever goes under, I hope I’m alive to see it. I’ll happily piss on its grave.

    I still need wave 2 deluxes and voyagers, then wave 3 everything. Also waiting to hear the damage for Predaking.

    Still unsure if I am buying any leader size figures for POTP. Don't really need Optimus when I have PM Prime from TR, but would like to have the Matrix. Don't like Rodimus Unicronus at all. Considering Rodimus Prime which would garner me a Matrix, and maybe Primal.
