Here's the post for cannonball and ferak
I love the pirate lingo on these posts lol
Ferak is looking pretty cool still
I'm happy with the way cannonball turned out. The updated decal is still pretty cool, and I'm glad he's got the grimace and not a smirk

It's intriguing that the first choice was the reactivate Soundwave mold, but the robot mode proportions are so weird imo. I like the way he looks better with the skids mold, especially because I don't have anyone else from that mold and don't plan to get any other version of the mold unless they give crankcase the idw head (highly doubtful)

I'm pretty excited to get all of this subline, I like that in the instagram story he put the guardians of the galaxy song. These guys would be like the transformers version of the ravagers I suppose

Just to be clear here, the toys are only selling out at retailers that offer free shipping through subscription services (Amazon and Pulse). They are still available at specialty retail stores.

I've been examining all the new pictures of Magmatron & Tidal Wave from the Hasbro China event this past weekend.

Its a shame they didn't design AIRLOCK connectors on Tidal Wave for city-building fans like myself (at least none that I've been able to spot). Seems (after skipping them on The Ark) they went out of the way to add them to Cybertron Metroplex & The Nemesis when they really weren't necessary, but skipped them on Tidal Wave which they actually designed a base mode for. :???:

Just looking on Hasbro Pulse, looks like Gears is available again for preorder.

It was only officially revealed less than a week ago, but we can now confirm that Legacy United's only new Wave 2 Core Class figure, Beast Machines Cheetor, has been found at retail in the U.S. While most retailers show a shipping date of April 1st, he can be found now in stores. This example was found at a Target in Centerville, Utah, along with his repacked Wave mates, Energon Megatron and Infernac Bouldercrash.

If Wave 1 distribution was anything to go by, the rest of wave 2 should trickle into stores in the next couple of months.

Have you found any new or newly announced figures in stores in your area? Please let us know, and let us know if you plan plan to pick up the latest addition to the Legacy United line.

I've only seen Core figures and nothing else from wave one and only at Target. Usually wave one is the wave that gets over saturated in stores, and here we have what will likely be wave two showing up first for many of us.

Unfortunately with all of Legacy using the same SKU retailers don't know the difference. That's why you have 2+ year old product still in some locations. Hasbro made a smart move back in 2018 starting with PotP and making every year a different SKU. I wonder why they changed it for Legacy? Because of my current schedule I barely go into retail stores anymore. But I know I'm not missing much. I believe I had the same experience , only seeing the core class on one occasion at a Target. Thankfully, there's not a lot in this line I'm interested in, just getting them on Amazon.

Thanks to Notrab on Weibo, we have new in hand images of some big ticket Transformers items soon coming our way.

They have in hand images of Legacy United Tidal Wave, Magmatron and the Target Exclusive Target Optimus and Bullseye set. Of course, these images are enhanced with filters, to make the toys look as good as possible. We go get good shots of all of Tidal Wave's many modes. Enjoy!

All these reveals - and yet somehow it all seems profitless since they still haven't revealed SS86 Leader Swoop

That Tidal Wave looks better each time I see him. I hope eventually we get a toy/game colors version, and maybe even an Energon version. I'm just annoyed he won't be able to directly transform from warship to robot. He's basically a giant parts former. So was Omega, but still.

Tidalwave steal the show.

Tidal Wave looks amazing :APPLAUSE:

He actually looks scary, like any

seeing that headed toward them knows their scrapped.

Corporate Prime looks so Evil.... I mean .. it kind of makes sense. :DANCE:

Tidal Wave looks amazing. If only I had the space for him.

Magmatron's rocking a kick ass electric guitar. :michaelbay:

Well, it's nice to know that the designers haven't lost their ability to use the crappy "robot slipped on a bar of soap" base mode...

If you really loved him, you'd make space for him. In your home and in your heart.

Man that base mode certainly has Fortress Maximus city base mode vibes to it! :-?

just back from having a root about SMYTHS in dublin.

theres an absolute RAKE of leader blitzwings in for 27.99 euro

https://www.smythstoys.com/ie/en-ie/toy ... e/p/225321

which is a great deal.

i presume its the same in the UK with a price about £25 or so. dunno where they came from as he's been absent for an age now.

also TITAN class Nemisis has been reduced to €150. but its pretty much sold out everywhere so thats worth feck all.

theres ONE left in my local (even though the website says its NOT there

) and im tempted to chance another reduction to 100 but TBH its not that bad a price now so may pick it up.

News Credits: 56 · Wed Mar 27, 2024 4:09 pm

That is a great deal. IN North America, to my knowledge, there hasn't been any reduction in prime on The nemesis. Its sold out at most places. BBTS is taking pre-orders for retail price at $199.99, for anothjer order expected any time, but they've been known to get late orders on Titans (That's How I got Omega Supreme) .

The cheapest 3rd party seller on Amazon is asking $300 :shock:

Cheapest on eBay currently has multiple bidders at $162 + 53.05 shipping. So... People are paying above retail for Titan Nemesis less than a year after its release.
