Normally I am not a pink person but I like so many robots that have pink in their color schemes. (I think Victorion is responsible for getting me started.)

Nice to see that Grotusque is finally available! I've been waiting for him to come out for months now. Managed to order mine.

Just ordered mine this morning lol

Leader Evolution Rodimus is in stock on Target’s website, if anyone is interested, for $44.99. Oddly he’s the first and only PotP figure to be listed so far.

Whew, I had a feeling it would FINALLY come available while I was in the middle of a 24 hour whirlwind of international flights and airport layovers. Thankfully is was still available as soon as I got to my hotel and some reasonable wireless. Threw in a Barbie for my youngest to get the free shipping. I have finally completed Titans Return. Sweet feeling.

Just a heads up, I made a titan master adapter for the energon scorponok mold family just for this release on stairways.

Sweet! I just got one! Thanks!

I'm jazzed to say that my TR Grotusque shipped out today, I should have him in hand this Friday! And thus it was though the screams of a thousand Scalpers were suddenly silenced!

Ordered Grotusque. Trying to think of a good body to use for Scorponok.

Tidal Wave works out pretty good! And you can pair him with Trypticon too, with the headmaster slot in the back of his head, you can have Scorponok make him smarter

That does look good. Thanks for the suggestion. And I do have Tidal Wave with no special attachment to the character. I was thinking a spare Brainstorm or Slugslinger until your post.

Glad I could help!

We've received notification from a fellow Transformers fan based in Singapore, that the regional Toys'R'Us website is now showing a listing - and it's marked as in stock at the time of writing - for the new re-release of Hasbro Transformers Masterpiece MP-10 Cybertron Commander Optimus Prime!

The item is a second release of the 2012 MP10 mold, not counting the Platinum Edition Year of the Horse version from 2014, and is still considered a Toys'R'Us Exclusive in the United States too. We seen the figure arrive in the country too, but Singapore fans can already purchase theirs with this information - and at the currently discounted price of $279.93 Singaporean dollars (approx 210 USD).

The Transformers Masterpiece-10 Action Figure - Optimus Prime Features:
Classic Masterpiece-10 Optimus Prime figure

Converts between robot and truck modes

Converts in 24 steps

Comes with roller, Matrix of Leadership accessory, and battle accessories

Includes Spike Witwicky figure

Weird that they're using "Cybertron" instead of "Autobot" for a Hasbro product.

I mean, it's not like Optimus is the ruler of all of Planet Cybertron or something, he'd never want that job.

Attention mortals! A bit late as usual but PotP voyagers Grimlock and Starscream are finally actually available to purchase at Hasbro toy shop online!

https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa/-e1136as00
https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa/-e1137as00

If you still can’t find them in stores, now is your chance! Try the “NEW2018” promo code, and if your order is over $50, shipping is free!

Edit - the NEW2018 code only seems to work with a very few items here and there on the website. But there is a new code - "JAN2018", that gives an 18% discount and free shipping for PotP figures, and Titans Return figures! Get Grimlock, and Starstream, and Slugslinger and save money!

Rodimus Unicronus is available on TRU’s website, for anyone interested.

HasbroToyShop.com is at it again! They've posted PotP Elita-1 and Hun-Gurr on their website!

But don't get too excited, because they've done their usual 'thing' of posting them when they don't actually HAVE any available for purchase. But keep your eyes peeled because this usually means it's only a few days before they DO become available...

Not on purpose! And besides, it's HTS that keeps yanking our chains like this, posting the toys when they don't actually have them yet - with that, what is up?

HTS finally has Rodimus Prime from Wave 1 on sale and in stock.

https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa ... 0?catName=

And Grimlock is back in stock, though I don't know for how long. I have had a real hard time trying to get this wave 1 voyager and leader. I haven't seen them in stores in my area, and Amazon isn't much help either (they are selling Grimlock at $35.84 as of this post).

Also there is a 15% discount for all action figures using the code at the top of the page. Transformers (at least Rodimus Prime) can use this discount code.

It has something to do with their (questionably executed) efforts to integrate the product listings on hasbro.com to the shop listings on HTS. Can happen in reverse too - find a listing on hasbro.com, click a "buy" button to go to HTS, and nothing but Mr. Potato Head and his 404 message.

Yeah, I consider HasbroToyShop to be Hasbro's personal TJ Maxx. The fastest clicker gets to scrape the barrel. ;)^

I really like this thread, so, dragging up from the depths...

BBTS has Power of the Primes Titan Predaking up for preorder. $159.99. Lists the release date as mid-July 2018 (which is pretty specific for BBTS, so I bet it will come out in a couple of weeks. :DANCE:
