Movie figs are out in the UK! You can pick them up from Argos. Check out the website listings here
http://www.argos.co.uk/webapp/wcs/store ... atHits_2=1
Check all 3 pages to see all of them!

Eager beavers aren't they?

The early retailer makes all the moolah I guess...

Good for them. Maybe this movie will see us Brits getting a lot more tfs available in stores than ever before. Maybe even almost the same as, dare I say it, the US!!!


I hope so. I have always prefered going to toy stores to buy my transformers the buying over teh intranet.



EDIT:- It also looks like Argos is having a sale on their transformers stock. This may be the time to pick up the other Titaniums...

well I just went to my local Argos and they only have the Protoforms in stock. All the others are on the site but if you check stock availability they are not in. The girl at the counter also confirmed that NO stores have them yet, they are just listed awaiting stock in June.

Oops! Sorry, I didn't see that! Also did you get the figs from Argos or did you import them?

I got the Legends from Argos (they also had Blackout in stock!), I bought Starscream off of Ebay, I have Blackout and Ratchet on preorder and I bought the first wave of deluxes from Toyzandgamez.com.

This definitely does seem to be the definitive first wave though from what I can gather from all the retailers I have spoken to!

Thanks, do you have any idea why Scorponok, Ironhide and Starscream are missing. I would ask about Wreckage, but I am only interested in getting characters that actually appear in the film to start with.

Scorponok and Wreckage were supposed to be in wave 1 but for some reason were omitted but will appear later.

Not sure about Ironhide and Starscream but they are both listed on the Hasbro UK website so should show up at some point.

looks like even the UK isn't safe from Bayformers

Yeah, it would be sorta stupid if Starscream and Ironhide didn't show up seeing as they are main characters. Although, I was kinda hoping they'd forgotten about Scorponok because of the robot mode, but if its getting released then due to my completist ways, I'll have to get him. Damn.

What are you talking about. The Bayformers rule! Except Scorponok in robot mode.

they rule at being deformed lumps of unidentifiable plastic

Meh... Just because they aren't G1!

just for the record, i did actually try the other lines. Movie and its toys are the only ones which actually make me want to claw out my own eyeballs and vomit at the sight of them

That's a bit OTT, don't you think?

Who Hoo, Titaniums are right down in price. Will try to get down their tomorrow lunch to see what they have.

Wonder if this will get front paged? When I posted about the Protoforms appearing on the TRU website it was just ignored. Lets see shall we?

I was a bit unsure as well at first and I am the complete opposite of a die-hard G1'er! I think the figures are great they have really grown on me. I've even bought a brand new shelf for my room to display them all on!

I've decided to save my money totally and skip all the movie toys

Exulted Unicron wrote:I've decided to save my money totally and skip all the movie toys

Im going to skip the smaller figures. I like detail and complexity. So I will have save my money.

I'm waiting more for robot heroes and encore

Lucky brits. Well wen I'm back to the uk i'll be picing some up and some classics from Argos sale.

What size class is Blackout?

Remember, they are up on the site, but that does not mean they will have them in stock. Remember how long after the catalogue came out it took for Alt Ravage mkII to appear in store?
