Nope. Yet to receive a call that they got their stock in. Not expecting to receive it either. Accepted the fact a long time ago that when you live in a remote part of the country, things either take forever to get here, or just don't make it at all.

I'm right there with you

Yeah ... no. You live in the US. You really don't know what bad distribution is. Go ask the Brits about bad distribution.

Oh man I feel so bad for them. It took 2 years for them to get the FOC voyagers.

Sure I do, I may live ~40 mins away from Chicago, but I never saw any gen figures after the skywarp/mini-con team wave; my store's have BARELY gotten cw wave 1 at all, I have to drive 30 mins+ to get to a town with half-decent cw filtration, most stores near me aren't even re-stocking generations figures; not trying to one up you, but just cuz people live in the states doesn't mean much outside of generalizations

Point is, ALL the waves are released in the US. You might not get them locally but even if you shop through online retailers, you don't have to pay international shipping.

Australia, UK, other countries ... we regularly miss out on various waves leaving us with no choice but to either go without, import from Japan (affordable for Australia, not affordable for UK), or import from the US.

So you'll forgive me if I don't feel your pain.

So kind of you win some and loose some (for the UK and Australia loose even more?) You get some TT releases but waaaaaay overpriced and some releases don't get released after all?

Anyways, is there any other seibertron Aussie aside from Arctorro and you here you might have snagged one Devs yet? It's only those guys from China who are lucky enough because of connections and geography.

Wave 1 refreshes.
All year.
Every year.

Forever.


Plus, now's a good time to share my own experience trying to acquire Titan Metroplex

Only released at Toys R Us
Even then, only the biggest stores got him in.
Sold out/scalped most places because TRU UK doesn't know how to limit to one per customer.
TRU website says 1 left available for click and collect in the entire of the UK.
In Cardiff.
Called the cardiff store, they don't have him. It's a computer error.
Then just happen upon 2 of them sitting on a shelf in Warrington which were never listed on the site.

Welp.

Thanks to fellow fan, Antoine Lewis, of the Facebook group Plastic Crack Fiends we now know that PCF member David Jackson has found Titan Class Devastator at US retail in Sunnyvale California!

The Toys R Us price tag is confirmed at $149.99 and Mr. Jackson will provide further proof with a scan of his receipt, which will be added to this article asap.
EDIT: He has provided the receipt!
You can use the following UPC to find him at your local TRU's customer service desk.

This is fantastic and unexpected news for those patiently (and impatiently lol) awaiting this beast of a Combiner.

Agh! It would be awesome to get my hands on this early for the galleries so that I can do comparison shots once and not have to transform them all twice.

Does anyone have the UPC for Devastator?

[Tranzilla]

So we can expect a price hike to $169.99 after SDCC then?

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Damn, so much for waiting on online retailers

Yes we do! Editing the news piece now!

[mooncake623]

Going to be hard to not pick this up if I see it.

[Hellscream9999]

Wonder how he got the 20% off, I could probably deal with no elbows if I got him 'round $100; scavenger, is easily my favorite, and the bulldozer guy is solid, but the elbows on TT's Scrapper make him a stand-out figure.

With the UPC you can go to a store and have them search for it in their systems by an exact item number rather than rely on the employees ability to determine what is or is not a Titan Class Devastator when trying to figure out ETAs or pricing.

Often times they aren't nearly as knowledgeable about this stuff as we are.

[MotorMaster85]

Just spoke with Toyrs R Us Customer Service and they said this item is still slated for an August 1st 2015 release date. No idea how it ended up in Cali Store.

[Mindmaster]

So do I get this now, or wait until Takara's comes out in December-ish?

*sigh* Decisions, decisions...

[mooncake623]

So BBTS now has CW Devastator listed to be due in Early July!

http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=has24518&mode=retail

Guess BBTS is real tired of every retailer breaking street dates and people canceling their orders with them cause they got it somewhere else first.

I bet BBTS already have it in their warehouse

I wouldn't blame them if they are, between TT's unveiling and the stores ignoring street dates, they're probably taking a pretty big hit on they're orders; especially if others find a way to get the 20% off, and blow online retailers' price outta the water

The Chosen Prime's also getting theirs in next week.

Ugh, I really can't decide if I want him now or wait until Takara's comes out!

[Cobotron]

Figures, the first place it shows up happens to be haunted. If "Johnny" combines your Dev all by himself, I'd take that thing back lol
