Hi all,

Was at Crown Point shopping park in Leeds yesterday and picked up Titans Return Power Master Prime - they had a few of him and Blaster. Sadly none of the others.

Went into the Asda Home store a few stores down and picked up all the Combiner Wars combaticons limbs on sale at £12.00 each - Bargain!! They had quite a few so get down fast if you need them guys :)

Oh man, hope they get more in soon so you can pick one up.

Tried to log on here yesterday to spread the word and forgot my password - had to reset it which didn't come through until this morning.

I'm still hunting for Galvatron - Knew I should have pre-ordered him from Kapow months ago as can't find him anywhere.

Tried Argos at Crown point and then White-Rose as their new Catalogue shows Titan returns figures, but all they had at both were CW Hotspot rather than Sentinel Prime/Galvatron and Iron Hide rather than Skull Crusher and co which is terrible.

If I come across anything, will post here straight away.

Thanks Jinnai. Cheered myself up by picking up crashbash and terri-bull from birstall toys r us so at least not a total loss! They still had at least one of each titan master left if you need any. I've got sentinel prime, I really like him, but yeah I need galvatron too. Him, powermaster Optimus Prime, Highbrow, Chromedome, Mindwipe, Fangry, Sixshot....you see how this is going to go! Transformers are my crack. :KREMZEEK:

Sixshot has been revealed at SDCC on the back of the Titans return Megatron packaging. Can't wait for it!

Thanks Crankcase79 for the heads-up. Will try and get down to TRU at Birstall tomorrow. Was passing Morley and stopped by ASDA there yesterday evening. Picked up CW Buzzsaw and chopshop for £7.00 each. They had all but Wreck-gar in stock.

Sixshot is going to be awesome - he will be mine lol! Don't know what to make of CW Liokaiser though. When I heard he was coming I was looking forward to having a Deathsaurus figure, but I just don't know how I feel about a repainted Sky-lynx. Maybe Takara will do something as epic a they did with Grand Galvatron.

If you're interested in picking up TR Galavtron, I stopped by Hobbylink last night who have the Legends one now in stock and reduced as well already. With SAL Shipping he worked out at around £34.00 which isn't that bad considering the exchange rate we're getting here and I usually don't get stung with customs with this shipping method. Worth taking a look :)

If I come across anything, I'll let you and the gang here know straight away.

Good man Jinnai. I picked up cw Shockwave for £7 from asda Killingbeck this morning, Leeds must have finally got some stock in! They had the full set but to be honest shockwave was the only one I wanted.

Last Saturday, in at toy shop called "Toy Planet" in Derby, I spotted some of the new Titan Return stuff at teh back of the shop. :shock:
They had,
1. Blaster :-D
2. Galvatron :-D
3. Sentinel Prime (Not the Animated version :BANG_HEAD: )
And some smaller ones, but I didn't care for those.
A worker said they imported them from the USA, but I checked some of the boxes and it said Hasbro UK? :roll:

They do look good though, but VERY pricey. (A small one cost £7, while a Leader class one cost £40-£60)

Why does :HASBRO: UK take AGES to release all the good Transformers?

Oh well. :roll:

Just a theory, but might be worth us all checking Argos stores now for the Titan Returns stuff as the 3 for 2 Toy sale has just ended and we all know they hold that just as the new catalog has been released to get rid of all the old stock and make room for all the new stock.

I'll be popping into my local Argos this week to see if they have any new Titan Returns bots, if anyone else is passing a store, it might be worth checking :)

Whoops, missed this!

TFNAtion is taking up the mantle of Auto Assembly, with much of the same organising team and a lot more ambition it seems! Check the thread out: tfnation-new-uk-event-coming-summer-2016-t104919s50.php

Spotted these at my local Toys R Us, £25 a piece (sorry for the awful quality)
Only had one of each, I got neither because 1) I am broke and 2) I am more interested in the second wave of Titans Return (or whichever one has Astrotrain)

Been around a few places, Toys R Us in both Poole and Thurrovck have had nothing. In fact in Thurrock the display has been shrunk! (Only the usual mass of RiD one steps and old stock)

Smyths in Thurrock did yield Galvatron, Powermaster Prime and Blaster (I bought all 3)

I was really on the fence with Blaster, but in hand he is really nice and surprisingly solid!

I have heard rumour that Toys R Us will have some kind of Transformers section at the front of the store (Not the big wall, but in the entrance area) So perhaps they will Roll Out the Titan Masters when that appears?

Phoned ahead at liverpool paisley street TRU.

No Voyagers, no Titans return stuff. (Guy on the phone even said the only titan thing he could find were the movie Titan heroes figures.) So I would save yourself the cab fair to get there scousebros. Liverpool 1 TRU had the full compliment of legends. No sign of titan masters.

Sentienl and Galvatron are both listed on the TRU website now tho, but they're out of stock

The only ones I want from this wave are the deluxes, and they are the only ones I can't find anywhere! Toys R Us has practically all the TR stuff except leaders and deluxes now :(
