I've been having a root through some of my still packed toys from the move in January and pulled out my TF keshi. Full sets of Japanese numbered red Cybertron and purple Destron decoys and a full set of clear blue Beast Wars II figures. A bowl of washing up water and a toothbrush are in their not too distant future, shortly followed by a new home somewhere among my already overcrowded shelves.

Dang those foc deluxes are nice

ill probably get magnus and that voyager soundwave, and a grimlock if he gets made (which he better do, hasbro)

Hi guys and gals. Just found Prime RID Arcee and Ratchet at Asda. Just giving you a heads up, good hunting y'all!

by **Lockdown91** » Wed May 09, 2012 4:46 pm

Which Asda is this? Last time I checked my Asda all they had were the smaller legion and maybe commander figures :/ Asda's been lacking around my area transformerwise

But this looks like a sign that we're finally getting new figures!

Also what was the price range, the usual £13 I expect?

It was an Asda in Hull, Yorkshire. So North for the minute. The best part is the deluxes are now £9.73 each.

I bought Arcee yesterday and Wheeljack, Soundwave and Ratchet today because its pay day :ic$:

. I told my self I wouldn't collect Prime but a few deluxes can't hurt at a tenner a pop.

Dammit, new figures are out when I need em, but I got Ratchet from the US and I don't want Arcee.
Grumble grumble...
When's Starscream and Bulkhead getting here? Come on hasbro!

Gahhh Im up north too, other side though to you, Warrington, near Liverpool, rechecked my Asda today and nothing new, they don't even have wave 1 deluxes :S

I've rechecked at Argos a couple of weeks back and they've only restocked on wave 1

I wonder how far we'll get in this line, considering the amount of figures that just simply never made it here the past few years :/

It's not a new trend, we almost never get the last few waves of any given line. The sodding Energon combiners remain one of Hasbro's biggest cock ups when it comes to not finishing a figure set for the European market, the Constructicons and Combaticons being impossible to finish with what actually got released this side of the Pond. Where finances allow I try to get in later wave cases from BBTS so can sometimes help out with the end of line figs, keep an eye on this thread as I always offer the doubles here at or close to cost or for trade.

Yeah I remember having trouble with the Energon combiners, I could only ever find Duststorm (I think it was his name, dark blue crane) and Sledge (again think it was him, Bonecrushers green twin) on the shelves, and never had any luck finding any other combiner part from this team or any of the others :/

I think stores stock too many cases of the first few waves of figures, they never sell them all which then means they can't really order new waves in really until the older ones budge :/

I'm still seeing DOTM deluxes all over the place, nowhere here is budging them down below £10 and no one is buying them, why not put them on clearance prices £4 a pop for a deluxe, they'd easily fly off the shelves making more room for the new toys that'll get them the most money!

My local Tesco is the same, DotM deluxes that will never sell still at £9.72. Other Tesco stores have had them down to £3 and Sainsbury have them at a 70% mark down. Ultimately I've already bought everything from that line that I was prepared to pay anything near full price for, so I need to see some serious reductions if I'm going to even consider buying any of the pointless repaints.
