I have bought from redrobottoyshop.com.au. They are pretty good. Fast shipping and decent pricing.
I have pre-ordered my Groove from them.

Was it a local or international transaction for you?

Local. They do ship internationally and I don't see why their international service would be any different to their local service.

I'm waiting on Amazon. Whatever you do, don't pay more than retail. Groove's good, but not that good.

Well, my local store got back to me and it doesn't seem that they will have Groove in stock. So I may go with the Australian store after all. I'm happy that some people had good experience with them. The August release still sucks though. :(

I'm waiting for amazon. Hasbro just released info saying its coming to retailers today. It is more unlikely that the familiar places dont stock him than they do. especially since they had them last year. Aside from BBTS, its all small places we dont frequent often. That doesnt make any sense.

But hey do as you wish. But I am pretty confident I will own one sooner and for cheaper just by waiting a bit longer.

Interstingly enough, I've found this figure listed on Amazon.com from another store at a price similar to BBTS but with a November release date.

There is the link to the Amazon.com listing available now: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/ ... dition=new

As much as I want an accurate G1 Defensor, I think I might wait a few days and see just were he pops up :)

Heh, I already paid $160 for a Groove. ;) Yeah, I'll likely be selling my UW Defensor set at some point...

Hey, WJ, where do I post that HTS has a price drop on most of the Generations line? The only exceptions are the CW boxed sets, CW Blades, and those items no longer in stock. It looks to be about 20%, but even the Leaders are discounted so people can now get CW Ultra Magnus for $36 American. You can pretty much tell which ones are sold out now because they are still at regular price like Shockwave, First Aid, and Air Raid.

Please remember to write your opinion when I post a certain list that pertains to the very subject in 2 weeks.

We're sorry. The item Transformers Generations Combiner Wars Deluxe Class Protectobot Groove is no longer available from the seller you selected. To see if it's available from another seller, click here to return to the item's product detail page.

As of 12:30 PM CDT, I get the same. #GladIOrderedBBTS ;)

[Edit] And in a great coincidence, I just got my notification that BBTS has Groove in. Shipping! :DANCE:

[Edit2] Now Amazon is now letting me order, calling the availability a "back order." Perhaps they are sifting through people ordering large quantities... At any rate, with tax, it comes to $18.23, just $6 and change less than BBTS. I'm okay with my BBTS order at this point...

And it's gone again. Looks like they are putting a few up at a time? Or sourcing more to put up? It's almost fun to watch it go up and down. (Well, probably fun for those of us who already have Groove. :-s )
