I'm giving some heavy thought of parting ways with my Timelines Punch/CP figure. :-?

I couldn't pre order, but they'll email me when available. Plus if I can't use PayPal I'm kinda hosed

Is that the Botcon version? I keep meaning to lookup how much he goes for on eBay... #Lazy

My Repugnus order with Amazon just updated with an expected delivery date of August 3rd.

It is the one you are thinking of, yes (the Universe Sunstreaker retool), but it wasn't a BotCon figure. Rather, a Club Store exclusive.

This is the one I was referring to.

I've seen it on eBay regularly and it can go from $80 and up Used and New. :VEHI:

Looks like the Amazon Blast-Off listing has been updated:

Indeed, that's the one I was thinking of. Club exclusive, Botcon, they were all too expensive for me at the time.

TYVM!

Finally got him added to my wish list (I've seen reports of people sometimes being able to add them directly from their wish lists)

We have a confirmation and a sighting, over on online retailer Amazon.com (the US branch), for the Transformers Prime Wars / Power of the Primes Blast Off figure, with Prime Master Megatronus - which is, at the time of writing, 'currently unavailable'. This has been the case with other online exclusives, appearing at seemingly random intervals and bursts, so keep on eye on the item's page here.

If you want a comparison with the previous Hasbro version of the figure, take a look at this older story, and compare to the stock images mirrored below!

Transformers Generations Combiner Wars Blast Off and Megatronus Prime Master
Includes a special edition Deluxe Class Blast Off figure with premium deco
Includes the special edition, clear Megatronus Prime Master figure
Comes in special edition packaging; celebrate the Prime Wars Trilogy with this collectible set
Includes Deluxe Class Decepticon Blast Off figure, special edition Megatronus Prime Master figure, 2 accessories, and instructions. Ages 8 and up

The paint mimicking the shuttle windows on the arms really sticks out like a sore thumb, and it's a shame. Without it the figure would be pretty much perfect.

:MAXIMAL:

Yeah unnecessary imo. I also don't like the fact they painted the window colour over the framing lines too.

I didn't notice that until you pointed it out and darn, that is horrible.

This is probably my favorite part about the deco. This is Takara Tomy level dedication to accuracy.

And this is my least favorite part. I get why they painted over the spaces between the windows, but I don't get why they thought the windows needed to be taller. It looks sloppy.

The images don't do the figure justice! Also, weird that his Prime master, Megatronus has a screw and not a rivet.(Mine is the RK release)

Repugnus and Punch are on sale again! Preordered both at Amazon.

So did Blast Off sell out quick like Punch/Counterpunch or is it not live yet and the listing is just a placeholder?

Probably a placeholder like Nemesis, Repugnus, and Punch/Counterpunch were...

I’m not sure if it has been posted, but Titans Repugnus is also up for preorder on Amazon now. I was able to successfully preorder it. I think the ship date is August 1st. Punch was Sept. 15th. Both were $24.99.

4 posts above yours

But thanks, I ordered both Repugnus and P/CP

Now I cross my fingers for a 25% off $100 orders from HTS, and the wave 3 figures, so I can finish the terrorcons and the minibots.

PS: any idea if they'll restock the wave 3 terrorcons soon? And Novastar?

What come sin at HTS is very random. Uually it is overstock items, and frankly I'm surprised the deluxe wave 2 items showed up at all. It appears that Hasbro did listen to fans that complained about the short supply of them. Since wave 3 is kind of just starting out, we have no idea if these will appear on HTS or not. Also TS has a reputation of selling out of items wuickly. If the wave 3 terrorcons do ever appear, this would be the best place to look, and to hopefully order very quickly.

The Item all eyes are on right now mostly on HTS is the Throne of the Primes, scheduled for release on August 13th, this will consist of any remaining supply not sold at SDCC this weekend, and will no doubt sell out within a few hours.

So has anyone actually been able to buy Blast Off yet? I've been waiting for a US release for him, and I am keen to get him at MSRP since I just had to pay double for my last 2 dinobots.
