With wave 2 stuff arriving, I think it's time to see scramble city taken to its logical extreme. Create some wild combinations, and share your pics!

Saw my first G1 Leader Megs today at K-mart.

He looked so good I just had to pick him up.

The Breakdown accessory can be placed in two ways:

Spent yesterday looking for mainly wave 2 CW stuff. Managed to find Motormaster. Only deluxe I saw anywhere was one wave 1 Aerialbot (the grey one) at TRU. Most places did have Silverbolt, a few also had Optimus. Huffer seemed to be at most places, TRU also had a Windcharger, but since I already have Tailgate I passed.

Every place is still cluttered the hell up with AOE, some about 50/50 with rid15, some with only a small bit of rid15 but tons of AOE. Target even still has last year's Gen stuff shelfwarming (but not the Arcee wave, that never showed up here).

So to preserve my sanity, I checked online, and when I saw how reasonable BBTS's price on wave 2 limbs was, I did not hesitate. I really would like to buy locally, but just can't. Such a shame. Get it together, retailers and Hasbro.

This is definitely the day for Combiner Wars News. Not only are the pre-ordered wave 2 figures arriving from HTS, and not only are those same figures finally available at US retail, but the extra limbs, Quickslinger and Brake-neck, (aka Slingshot and Wildrider) are now available for pre-order at Robot Kingdom. They are sold as a pair for 39.80$ US and start shipping May 4th 2015.

I agree, it's been a pretty exciting and fun day.

Got mine in hand too, but I tried reporting news too late...... :-(

Yep, my Wave 2 figures from HTS were waiting for me when I came home. I'm a happy camper again. :grin:

Just got home and opened the box. Only one I'm not happy with is Breakdown. He's terrible. Lol.

Uh, yeah no. RK says 39.8 for the two pack plus another 25 in shipping... So 65 for 2 deluxes or 33 each. (roguh rounding) Gonna have to think about that before I plunge. Paid worse in this hobby, but I don't mind the looks of Bravo or Offroad and am perfectly happy renaming them. I do kinda want Slignshot though, since I have a thing for Harriers

I think I'll wait to see if I can get the two exclusives without paying more than twenty bucks in shipping.

Was at a friend's house and I noticed something. CW Bombshell's head seems WAY too small. Thoughts?

News Credits: 3 · by **Optimizzy** » Thu Apr 02, 2015 8:02 pm

I didn't think so. Looks good to me.

Compared to what? He's a character from a science fiction land of make believe.

i love both insecticons. can't wait for chop shop and kickback

by **CombaticonsCombine?** » Thu Apr 02, 2015 8:11 pm

Okay, I could have phrased that better. His head isn't that bad...But the fact that his alt-mode horn is positioned SO FAR UP ON THE BACK OF HIS HEAD (which is the only thing I don't like about him) makes his head seem so much smaller.

Nah. Not yet. Now once we get the two exclusives and hit wave three or four, that's when we can get really wild.

And since the Combiner Wars system is based on Scramble City but is bigger, as well as more complex and advanced, I vote to nickname it "Scramble Nation". 8-}

I am sure. I'm sure I don't like it at all. Definitely gonna wait and see on this one, especially since I still intend to get Wave 3, as well as work on keeping up with the RiD toys.
