Finally got United Megatron, £50 off eBay brand new

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!

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!

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

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...

by **alternator77** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 4:25 pm

Generations Wheeljack arrived this week, damn that's a good mold.

by **bonesy91** » Sun Oct 14, 2012 10:36 pm

out of a stroke of luck (and being quick on ebay) I ended up snagging the following..
War for Cybertron: Optimus
War for Cybertron: Bumblebee
War for Cybertron: Soundwave
War for Cybertron: Cliffjumper

All brand new never opened for 66$.

and Tonight I found a War for Cybertron: Megatron in it's package as well. Got him for 24$

Been doing the happy dance all weekend. Now the boring waiting part lol.

and I finally got a complete set of transformers.

My first (out of the g2, beast wars, RID, Armada and energon I attempted to collect as I was growing up.)

My friend picked me up a TRU Wheelie to go with MP Rodimus and Grimlock. Probably my last TF for a while.

And I don't get why the face is considered so terrifying.

Classics Skywarp at last!

just Thundercracker and hound to go and I'm done.

TRU had the GDO deluxe figures so i picked up Springer, Wheelie, and Swerve today (already had Cliffjumper)

Then my HTS order came in (well most of it) and i got FOC Onslaut, Brawl, Swindle, Vortex and Prime Dreadwing. Now if they would just ship my Blastoff id be set for Bruticus.

Just got GDO Megatron. Skel Legs Megs will look great on the G2 shelf wondering why no one will play with him. Until Powerdive shows up to pat his back at least.

Transformers Masterpiece MP-12 Lambor/Sideswipe arrived a few days ago, but you all know about him already... :-(

Arrived from China the day before Lambor was Universe Swerve, and just how awesome is he? AWESOMEAWESOME thats how much!! :lol:

Few pics below...

: In-package Swerve

: Bring forth the Chevrolet!

: Swerve - "You've got the Brawn, I've got the brains, let's make lots of money!"

: Sideswipe - "Will I still be able to play the piano?"
Swerve - "Maybe but don't go scratching your nuts!"

Nice score on the Aveo Swerve! :APPLAUSE:

I got a total surprise from the neighbor just now. A box from the UK. Yep, a certain sneaky Brit has sent over the figures he got me earlier without telling me :lol:

Gen. FoC Shockwave
Gen. FoC Autobot Jazz

The best part? Compared to mainland prices I got a 2-for-1 deal. :grin:

No, wait, somethings not right here? There must be something wrong with the space time continuum 'cos since when do we Brits get some Transformers from a current line, send 'em to our U.S. cousins, with shipping and they still work out cheaper?

If I ever make it over the water I will be taking a huge suitcase just for TF figures, believe! :lol:
