Not sure if it the right discussion thread (my question is about Titan Return, not CW) but I was wondering if anybody knew if Fort Max will be available at stores like Toys R us or Walmart? An do any of you think he's worth picking up?

Here would be the best place to ask this from here on out: transformers-titans-return-product-reveals-news-updates-rumors-leaks-and-more--p1793745.php#p1793745

But yeah, he should be available at those stores. Though he might just be available online to free up shelf space in the physical stores.

No, this is definitely the wrong thread for that, that's actually a discussion that happened a few days ago. And he is being released to retail, but the question then becomes: are your TRU's stocked well enough and often enough to be there when he's there. I have never seen a titan figure at any store, so there's that...

The stock availibility is a valid question but there is very little I can do for that. I did pick up Metroplex at a small store for 100$ plus taxes a year after he was released and I know it was a good deal. I'm wondering just how big the difference will be between the prices at retail stores and 'specialised' stores.

I don't know where you live, so I couldn't tell you specifically, except that costco had metroplex for ~$50 at christmas that year (I think, it was pretty out there) and Amazon had devs on sale for ~$100 a couple times, (I believe...)

So with recent developments in IDW, I now find myself really really lusting after more CW guys for an IDW Galvatronus and Sky Reign.

My Combaticon limb figures showed up today... Gotta hand it to HTS... Between their sale, free shipping, and now getting these within 5 business days, I have no regrets with getting both versions of this group.
I really do like the look of Blast Off, and tbh, this actually makes me more okay with UW version having a different color scheme. Probably would've bugged me if both molds shared a color scheme that was too similar. I do wish the highlight color over the knees was black instead of yellow, but oh well. Still looks good overall.
Also, still not a fan of Vortex's yellow missiles... Wish those were black or even purple.
This is the one character where I think UW got it spot-on.

Oh quick question-- I have a bunch stacked and on pre-order with TFSource.
If I have my stack shipped now, will my other pre-order items still ship for free since both are well over $150??
Seems like they would, but if not, I'm willing to wait.
I emailed them back on the 28th and still haven't heard, so figured some of you would know.
Thanks!

I see what they did there: instead of a proper listing, it gave a page for the product in general, including the lowest price available on the site.

Cw cyclonus is still readily available here in the north east but as for sky reign Internet will be your best bet :-)

Someone remind me, did the red version of CW Prime have the same problems as the 1st release of Motormaster?

Yeah. And I don't believe he had later release with fixed hips like Motormaster did. The white version was fine, though.

Not entirely sure you understand... take a look at the latest issue of RiD. Things get a little insane.

That's as I understand it. I believe you'll have to go United Warriors route to get fixed hips on Optimus.

You do know that he's apparently getting a very wide release in October, right?

Yes, but I'm impatient and cheap. Hence, my frustration at repeatedly missing this dude. :-D

Ah, now that, I get, can you sign up for an alert, or just keep the tab open, and refresh it 100 times a day, like I do? Or talk to another member, I know Megatronus had an extra one at one point a few days ago...

Nope, keep missing it, and haggling with Megatronus would likely be too complicated - I'd probably have to sign up for stuff, and transfer money... I can wait until HTS gets them in October - being broke can make one very patient
