and it never ceases to amaze me that people are paying 3-5 times the retail value of an item that just may well be a shelf warmer in a month.

He has flown off the shelves here in Australia.
The non-movie bots are the shelf warmers here, Wreckage, Swindle and even Bonecrusher (but that's more because he was also packed in with 08 Bumblebee, Arcee and Dreadwing)

Barricade and Brawl also flew off the shelves, much harder to find them than Jazz or Scorponok.

my cousin found an online toy store with an hq situated in australia that was selling the thing for roughly 15 USA dollars. we went halfsies on it, and we're hoping to ebay it when it arrives, because I've seen people willing to pay upwards of 200 bucks just to have it a little early. honestly how can somebody be that much of an idiot, and still have a job that affords them that kind of disposable income?

I'm thinking that BB comes out in about a week or so. That was the supposed release date in the US anyway. :-?

He won't be coming out around here for a while. My TRU still has cases upon cases of wave 2 deluxe figures in the stock room.

July 14th (iirc) is supposed to be the next arrival date for the new shipments. (According to an email from BBTS)

So I'd start looking around then.

EDIT: Might want to start looking now.

This auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/TRANSFORMERS-MOVIE- ... dZViewItem
is from Digital Toys, he has it in hand right now, and the next wave is due on the 20th according to him. (He's trustworthy, knows his stuff)

So they should be starting to show now, and probably hit saturation by the beginning of August.

I found him today at TRU Cannington. Damn fine figure. I also picked up Arcee but passed on Dreadwing.

Wait, he's in Australia for sure? (This would be the second sighting there, I believe, correct me if I'm wrong.)

Then he should be hitting stateside quite soon, and I mean within a week or so.

Yeah, I'm in Western Australia. Wouldn't be surprised if I have the biggest Transformer collection in Perth.
