I'd say yes. Even if there is no option to purchase directly, its not "unobtainable" if you had the right connections and enough money. How many of us have exclusives from conventions we never attended, or clubs we were never part of .
chuckdawg1999 wrote:The Double Targetmasters hit me deep in the nostalgia feels, they were some of my favorite later G1 figures and I dug the gimmick. Needlenose is much better than I think anyone thought it would be. Articulation is spot on, even includes swiveling wrists. Articulation is so good you can even pull off some good sniper poses. Transformation is smooth and intuitive resulting in a great jet mode. This should be the first purchase from the wave.
chuckdawg1999 wrote:Armada Hot Shot is the figure we should've gotten with the Universe release some years ago. It remains faithful to the classic design while updating the articulation and giving the overall look a modern spin. I am disappointed that Jolt, Hot Shot's Minicon, wasn't included as I feel that's part of the overall package. While maybe not the first deluxe from the wave that you should purchase, it should be close to the top.

In the interview Toys R Russ had a few days ago with members of the design team they mentioned a TF Fan Tuesday (or Friday?) event will be coming "soon". I imagine there will be more RotB Reveals as well as Legacy Evolution Wave 2 (Or Legacy Wave 5 if you prefer).
As far as we know, it will probably have 2 more Core Class Dinobots, & Thundercracker
Deluxe: Junkion #2, Crosscut, & Animated Prowl
Leader: Skyquake
What else? (aside from rereleases?)

This is exactly why the only two Evolution figures I've pre-ordered/ordered day before Amazon started shipping, are the Dinobots. Would it be neat to grab Hot Shot or Lio Convoy now? Yeah, but based on the amount of Kickbacks, Drag Strips, and Bulkheads I can see running to Target, I have plenty of time. But a combiner, especially Dinobot combiner, I feel like isn't gonna last long around me, so I might as well pick them up as I see them, instead of trying to find one of them on the aftermarket. Made that mistake with SS AOE Grimlock, and almost made that mistake with both SS86 Grimlock and Slug.
Well, that and I've stopped pre-ordering TFs in general when they're months out and suddenly they've been moved forward to tomorrow. Seriously, I get that the supply chain's messed up, but it's be nice if they would stick with the original ship date, or give you a Pile of Loot system like BBTS has

I'm trying to give up preorders unless it is something that will for sure be hard to get otherwise.
Do I want them? Yes. do I really want to rush right now? Not really? I'd also like to space them out, I feel like some bots last year did not get the love they deserved because I got a bunch all at once.
Plus, they aren't in stores near here yet. So I know that I will have time. I want those Dinobots too, but I think there will be plenty to find, at least of this wave. I will get more impatient once we get to 5 and 6.
