Totally. I read it both ways. Just based on what you and DMax wrote, it sounded like BBTS had a flat shipping charge that's all.

I find it's more to the consumers advantage to place larger orders with both TFS and BBTS. Which sounds somewhat similar to what some of you guys describe with some of the Japanese import sites.

Oh boy, that is a loooooong conversation. But to keep it short, I will say that shipping from Japan is very different. There arent flat rates and it all depends on the service you choose, the weight and the package dimensions. I seem to get a better shipping price if I make multiple smaller shipments than a very big one. Shipping a deluxe costs about 5$ at the most, for instance, but shipping 10 deluxes might be more than 50$.

Hey, for all interested: Entertainment Earth has G2 Superion available for $109.99 and free shipping!

http://www.entertainmentearth.com/prodinfo.asp?number=HSB3774#.VpiHyvkrLIU

It's been in Canada, it showed up in Malaysia, and Amazon.com briefly had a blink of it in stock - if you're US-based, and want to grab a box set featuring bright redecos of the Combiner Wars Aerialbots set, now's your chance. Several members have sent us notifications that the G2 Superion set is currently available (for $99.99) at site sponsors BBTS and TFSource and the online versions of the Toys'R'Us and Target chain- head over there if this is your thing!

Just to let people know, the post has been updated to include that both TRU and Target now have him in stock

I'm still baffled that Combiner Wars gift sets weren't available for the Christmas season. Maybe these will be available in varying quantities for Christmas 2016? Seems like sets like these have Costco written all over them, especially if multiple retailers are getting them.

In case the news has not yet leaked, my Death Minions inform me that 3 of the Combaticon deluxes are available at Hasbro Toy Shop's website: http://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/SearchDisp ... geSize:18&

Blastoff, Brawl and Swindle are listed. For some reason there is no sign of Vortex or Onslaught. But you can get those three, listed among other available figures, and a mess of other figure links that will inform you they are out of stock.

Love,
Death

Dear lord this g2 superion is EVERYWHERE.

And for the right price too! Man, does this mean that this G2 set has a better distribution than the individual CW toys?!

Takara Legends LG20 Skids is up for pre-order at amiami.

I really want him to. I hate seeing only 3 limbs and knowing the fourth may come too late for one of them to stay in stock

Yeah, really, I need that free shipping too, if it really is active (as it's not advertised on the site) otherwise, I would've just ordered a case of them from bbts days ago - as I was specifically postponing ordering them til hts got them

Indeed, that's some hard-core trolling on hts' part

if you're feeling sneaky, Premium Collectables has an "early" pre-order for the Computron box set, it's not on their site, but you've gotta email them about it - they did the same for the G2 combiner box sets.

details on the Ozformers site here.

Doesnt look that secret to me, here is the preorder for Computron folks! Crazy cheap too!

http://www.premiumcollectables.com.au/products/hasbro-computron-combiner-wars-giftset

Site Sponsor Premium Collectables has a preorder for the fabled Transformers Combiner Wars Computron set. This is the first preorder available for this set. The only details offered are the following:

PRE ORDER AUG/SEPT 2016 ETA- EARLY BIRD OFFER

Full Set of Combiner Figures to Create Computron

The price is discounted due to the early bird offer, with brings the set to 82.33$ US. This also gives us the release window of the figures, which would be in late summer 2016. While there are no accompanying images, anyone curious can check out the previously leaked image of this set here.

These box sets are really nice. The G2 sets have some killer decos. I'm starting to get real tempted to pick up the Computron set.

Never heard of premium collectibles. Im assuming its one of these rinky dink one man dealers who wont let you cancel pre orders without a penalty. (not saying it definitely is, just never heard of them) I know it costs more but ill stick with BBTS or TF source because I know I am free to cancel my pre order if pictures come out and this thing sucks. Also, I like buying hasbro figures as individuals generally in mass retail. If im gonna have to buy a gift set to get computron as a whole, I might as well just wait for takara. I already have a hasbro scattershot.

And Maketoys is re-issuing the set individually to attract more budget oriented collectors who are disgusted with Hasbros "Silvershot". Smart move by Maketoys. They need to supplement for the loss they are going to take on Guardia.

What gave the change of heart?
