The Energon Pub

To be fair almost all in the poll need a new toy, and I think some were a bit miffed that beast wars was not getting anything for a major anniversary. However that being said, now hasbro can give us both star sabers and deathsarus in one of the future lines.

Amazon seems to have removed the pages for Transformers Combiner Wars Blast Off and Megatronus Prime Master Transformers Power of the Primes Punch-Counterpunch and Prima Prime, and Transformers Titans Return Repugnus, Dastard, and Solus Prime Prime Master. I went to check the pages I saved to see if there was a update and got the image below on all three figures. I could also no longer find them by searching amazon. I even tried the links from this site and got the same results. Seems has of now we cannot buy these from amazon.

No, these should be fine from Amazon. The Nemesis Prime set did the same thing, and just became available in spurts yesterday and today. If you have them saved in your list, just keep checking them periodically as well as this forum. That is how I snagged a Nemesis Prime last night. Someone else indicated they were able to order yesterday.

Also, a personal thank you. Due to your posting of the Wave 3 PotP Deluxes in the sightings forum, I was able to snag a set myself.

I just realised since Prime Masters and Titans Returns are compatible,you can take this scepter,to make it look like Optimus Primal has been collecting faces!

I concur. to be honest, even being a prime member, as often as I use amazon, I can never find these exclusives with any search parameters, I have no idea how they are being found, and even when they are, and I save them in "my list" for later, they come back as inactive as well. It's for this reason I stopped linking to things that may not come out for several months, and just wait until the item is actually available.

Thank you for the information I will keep an eye on them. Good job on getting Nemesis I just got the information on availability after he was no longer available. And finally you are welcome; it is nice to know that my sightings postings have help others find the figures they are looking for.

^Seconded on the sightings. Even though I don't think any of you even live near me, I appreciate the reports more than you know. If something is sighted on the east coast especially I know it may take about a week to get out to where I am, if at all, so it gives me a general idea, even if it is occasionally false hope. But keep up the sightings, I know we are only a very small section of the fandom, but every little bit helps. My family is out grocery shopping today in fact as I work. My kids are the look out for Terrorcons .

I still see no way to add it to my cart.

I can't even find the listing.

I had the listing saved in my list. I've been checking ever since a few others reported being able to order theirs. Most of the time clicking on the link went straight to "Page not found" and a photo of one of the dogs of Amazon. But last night, I lucked out.

Here is the link to the product from my order. Hopefully this will work for some of you. It says currently unavailable for me now. I'd keep checking, they seem to be releasing a few at a time.

Sweet Thanks!

Anyone one got any listings for Blast Off, Grotesque or Deluxe Wreck Gar?
I actually had blast off saved but it stopped working.

A repost of the image from the Unicron Micron Combine Color post:



PP-41 Wreck-Gar?
PP-42 Nemesis Prime?!

The numbering suggests general retail, but how wide-spread is the line over there in Japan?

If you have the one you saved, keep checking that. The Nemesis prime listing did the same thing until just yesterday. They also always seem to trickle a few out before a wider release. Nemesis Prime is at the trickle out phase apparently with July 17th (Prime Day on Amazon) the main release.

I suspect the Blast Off, Repgunus and Counterpunch listings will behave the same way. Saying not found up until they go active, trickle out then main release. I'd say Blast Off is a possibility for Prime Day as well since we've seen his packaging and the Amazon "not found" Listing updated with the packaging photo in my Amazon List.

Wreck Gar is presumed but not confirmed to be a Walgreens exclusive in the US. No real update on that yet.

Grotusque might be hard to find other than ebay sicne it was a TRU exclusive from last year.

Edit: Prime day is July 16th, not 17th.

Here's a Guess, but from what I kbow from worjing in an Amazo warehouse, I wonder if what is happening is this "trickle" is that when someone is checking in the actual Cases from the Semi, its adding that stock in case by case. (I doubt these are coming in as a solid-wrapped pallet of nothing but Nemesis Prime) the Trickle effect is coming from us ordering as fast as the guy can scan product in, and each burst is a different shipment arriving.

I picked up Blot today and flipped his peg up to see if there was a better way to transform the guy and spotted little bit of detailing on the back of the peg.



Either this is new or I've never looked at the back of any of PotP limb-bots combiner peg.

So, this is interesting. I'm fairly confident I'll be able to get PotP Wreck-Gar from Walgreens at regular retail price (I saw TR Brainstorm a couple times even though I never wanted one, and a couple stores in my area still have the clone 2-packs), but in a *worst case scenario* the version can be pre-ordered for less than the pre-order for the version. What a strange world we live in.

Rippersnapper has it too, given they share parts. I don't think it's based on anything in particular tho.

Huh? It's weird because you can only see it if you flip it around. I don't have Rippersnapper, but I'm going check the rest of the PotP limbs I do have.

Now I HAVE to give the Scepter of Sparks to a movie Optimus figure. "GIVE ME YOUR FACE!!" and all that.

Mindmaster wrote:Kinda tired of seeing this figure, honestly. Just makes me angry thinking about how we got jipped out of a Leader class Star Saber.

I'm sure Star Saber will happen soon enough, John Warden and co. clearly hold Japanese G1 in high regard, so I think it's bound to happen sooner or later.

TulioDude wrote:I just realised since Prime Masters and Titans Returns are compatible,you can take this scepter,to make it look like Optimus Primal has been collecting faces!

Yup. The only thing that makes that a little more amazing is I described the news to my son (who has not seen the pictures yet), and last night, just from my description of the scepter he came up with the face thing all on his own.

I'm really tempted by Nemesis. I really do want him, his head sculpts are killer and he has awesome weapons and colors, and I am still Nemesis Prime-less. I'm trying so hard to justify him. That SDCC Primal doesn't help matters, cause now I can get a black repaint of all 3 Primes! Grrrr

You never know. No one expected Hasbro to import Groove back when they did.

I did, 100%. Hence why I never got Rook and still dont have him to this day.

And you really did miss out on him too. Best CW bot.

I don't buy exclusives, but FRIKKIN BOUGHT!!!!!!!!!! That is such an awesome deco! And the throne with the faces of the 8 Prime contest losers! And the Halo! And the Staff! Everything here is awesome. I also need him to finish my collection of the 13.

Also, I will still get the regular Primal as well. I will get both.

itscramtastic wrote:So..the Scepter of Primes in conjunction with the Halo of Primus is the Infinity Gauntlet?! More reasons to buy.

I thought the same thing!!

starrhero wrote:So, any idea on what this version of Primal's name should be? are we going to stick with OpOp, call him just Optimus Primal, or something else? We can't call him Primal Prime, as he doesn't share the same colors.

I'm going with the name I came up with when his victory in the Prime contest was announced: Maximal Prime

Munkky wrote:John Warden and co. clearly hold Japanese G1 in high regard, so I think it's bound to happen sooner or later.

I think so and hope so too. Those 2 are high on my list of figures to get. Though if we get Star Saber, would Takara still go the Godbomber route and make Victory Leo, or would that be something for later or never?

Yeah, that was cool. Hey, question for you. How does it work for making him into an arm? The robot head keeps getting in the way.

And D-Max, was it the Repegnas stuff that made you curse me? I thought it was fun and it is technically the first ever image we have of him

I got completely fooled on that Repugnus photo promise thing... O_o *grumbleExpectingActualPicturegrumble*

We have some news regarding the Transformers Power of the Primes Nemesis Prime. It has been available for order at both Amazon.com and Amazon.ca. What we learnt is that it is a Prime Day item, but the dates of it coming have been all over the place ranging from July 12th to the 16th. Prime members have been able to place orders on this item and it has been coming in and out of stock. There will probably be more come the 16th.

While it is out of stock on both site you can sign up for an e-mail notification of when it comes back on.

It was $52.99 USD and $69.99 CAD respectively.

Wait, does this mean you can only get him on Prime Day? also, $70! That's expensive.

Their debuting the toy on Prime Day. He should be acailable for longer than that, depending on stock

william-james88 wrote:Prime members have been able to place orders on this item and it has been coming in and out of stock.

I will be livid if they only let Prime members buy it at all. Maybe that's why I haven't been able to add it to my cart when other's have seen it in stock? If that's the case, then that is poopy.

Wow, that is... incredibly bad stock photography. This is beyond not understanding how to transform the toy; this is someone who has no concept of anatomy or even symmetry. Truly a sight to behold.
