My latest order came in. FoC Shockwave is tasty if small, he's at least got the sort of elegance that I expect from the big-brain robots. FoC Jazz is neat, but something about his legs feels cheap. FoC Optimus Prime is...disappointing, I guess. Cool figure, but SO dinky.

But with those, I FINALLY got my hands on a Henkei Jazz. SO glad I shelled out for this one after missing out on the RTS version. He's already making the rest of my collection look bad.

Missed on shockwave so I'm stuck choosing a stupid autobot. Though if they sell so well how come autobots are warmers the first shipment.

Just got Universe Silverstreak today, which means I just need Ironhide and Ratchet to complete my G1 Classyverse Deluxes. Skipped out on the Voyagers (though Inferno and Hardhead look good).

Just got WFC optimus in the mail today. (Amazon ftw). He's amazing, but his sheer complexity is kind of annoying. Worth it though? I think so.

I went shopping looking for new Transformers Prime from Hasbro, I came home with Voyager Breakdown. Score. They have 12 more so I'm going back on payday. Might get the two Vehicons they had too if they are still on sale.

I found a Sky Shadow at Tuesday Morning! Always happy to get a Harder to find figure for a Discount. I was looking for G2 prime, but all they had were SS, WJ, and Tracks on the shelf.

I bought the Hasbro Optimus Prime when it was released 10, or so, years ago then couldn't afford a lot of the others. Since then, I've gotten all of them but Megatron. I'm bummed that they're releasing FOUR of them this year because that's nearly $500 of figures. That's a bit over the top.

So, popped into Derby TRU on the off-chance of seeing some new content today, as I hadn't been keeping up on release dates. I was pleased to find FOC Prime and Jazz, so I picked up Op this time.

Have to say he's a good looking toy although, as others have said, he is quite small. Also, compared to WFC Prime, the transformation (2? Really?) is child's play. Looking forward to seeing some more next time I visit as I think I'll like this line (especially if they drop the price by 2 or 3 quid ;) ).

The Target store in Huntington, WV, has had plenty of Jazz, Optimus, and Shockwave since release. I just wish wave 2 would hurry up.

Slight delay in listing these, but oh so glad I have found them!

Cybertron Vector Prime... not sure if I have already mentioned him? Awesome stuff! I love his 'knight of old' look, great detailing, cool little 'targetmaster' fella to attach to his arm and a large rubber sword!!
Actually the rubber sword is somewhat crap as it is permanently bent out of shape, probaly from storage or such like?
A cool figure!

RTS Mindset... I debated between this little guy or Hailstorm but could get past Hailstorms gold tracks! Not actually as small as I first thought, he looks very cool in blue n black. Hes becoming one of my Movie linked faves!
Good stuff!

Cybertron Landmine.. a very nice, slightly older figure from the Cybertron line, quite large actually, deluxe sized I guess.
Picked him up to be my Neo-Wrecker Scoop and fits quite nicely! :D

Sweet little boxset exclusive is now MINE! Im talking the Henkei 'Sons of Cybertron' with crystal deluxe Optimus and Rodimus!
A lovely little boxset which I got for a bargain of £30! Both figures are cool, Rodimus being the better of the two, which I am planning on using with a KO Shadow Scyther kit?

Phew! :P

My shipment of the FoC Combaticons arrived today, along with the Ultimate Gift Set. Hoo hah! Gonna combine me some robots and stomp on FoC Jazz.

Still hunting TRU Generations, though. *UPDATE* Just bought the deluxe and scout figures online at TRU.

Prepare for... Fall of Cybertron!
FoC Shockwave Jazz.JPG
FoC Shockwave & Jazz

Finally got into Bedford Toys 'r' Us yesterday where I was actually shocked at the amount they had stocked! Really was! :shock:

Entering the store there was a large extended shelved display with loads of BotShots Cyberverse Legions and Commanders (or whatever theyre called!), Prime stuff, wave 1 & 2 (no vehicons!) a few Dark of the Moon bits and various odds n sods!

Got around to theyre main section... Wow! Seemed really stocked up which was great to see for a change with all the current and recent lines represented.
Very good Bedford!

Thrilled to also see on the main display, Fall of Cybertron figures!
No Bruticus, but that was just wishful thinking (Id prefer The Wreckers).
I picked up FoC Deluxe' Shockwave and Jazz for £12.99 each which seems a little steep for such small figures...?
Optimus Prime was also on the hangers but decided against him for the moment, just seemed like an upscaled Commander? :-?

These along with the Transformers Prime bits I bought too gained me a free Optimus Prime RiD Mask with built in quotes and noises!
The shelves where flashed with "spend over £30 and get a free mask" so cant complain!

:grin:

Thanks for the above pics! I've been looking for decent ones for a while now. 13 pounds for those is pretty expensive...
