Website only so far, I think. There's none in my local anyway, and if there were, they'd be full price.

Re: United Kingdom Transformers sightings
Shockwave seems to be sold out on the Entertainer website. Still, picked up a £10.66 combiner wars Prowl, then popped over to Kapow toys who are having something of a sale and picked up generations Scoop, Skrapnel and Tailgate for £20 altogether. That softened the blow on missing out on Shockwave....for now!

Sorry fella! I think anything in TRU is as likely as pre-rub Fort Max being a thing I'm aware of!

btw i spotted RID Warrior Class Megatronus at my local Smyth's Toys store, so obviously the release has gone beyond Asda now.

In the last week, I've seen Onslaught and Leader class Skywarp in Smyth's in Edinburgh as well Scattershot and Sunstreaker at Toys R Us here, too. Onslaught was also available in Jenner's in Edinburgh city centre for £15.41 (key word, "was", since the one I bought was the last one on the shelf).
In February, I also saw Swindle, Blast Off, Vortex, Brawl, Ultra Magnus, Skywarp, and Megatron in Forbidden Planet in Newcastle. I don't know what they've got right now, mind you, since it was several weeks ago that I was there.

Re: United Kingdom Transformers sightings
I would be interested if anyone see RID Legion Ratchet or RID Legion (white) Sideswipe any where.
I'm trying to see if I'm going to need to import them from the USA or not.

Re: United Kingdom Transformers sightings
So Onslaught and Scattershot have been available for ages, Shockwave and co. are/were available at the Entertainer and TRU. Yet, still no sign of the deluxe Combaticons. Have we had a situation before where only 2 of the 3 main size classes have been released at regular UK retail?

25% off Transformers in Sainsbury's. Good chance to pick up wave 4 CW and some Robots in Disguise stuff. Mu local had quite a few bits and bobs in, worth a look maybe, particularly if you are after Scattershot or Onslaught.

Two nice figures there Stu!
I'm having a hell of a time tracking down the wave 2 Minicons everyone else is reporting, it's like we're at opposite ends of a stick and the distance can't be closed...

Anybody got a spare Deluxe Groove?

How in the hell am I going to find him, now that everyone's stock of him has come and gone.

They actually got a restock? I thought people who missed out on them ended up getting the asian market retail release?
I've seen the chosen prime still havent put their preorders up for them, so I'm hovering tenaciously around their storefront and facebook page for news. That's the best I can figure out so far.

I paniced like a madman and got both together from idtoys.com for £38 for the pair as the pre order was selling out in a day or so. Two weeks after release they were both restocked and at this moment are available for a reduced £16.99. So my panic to buy was all for nothing. I'm sure it will be the same this time around

Re: United Kingdom Transformers sightings
Be nice if it is. I'd like a deluxe groove, but not enough to go mental over it. Kapow apparantly sold out within 2 minutes. Folks had it in their basket but lost it to out of stock before they could finish checkout.
