I'm going to have to wait for the zombie version, at least it's the same mold. I'm not paying £40 on ebay for a £13 figure.

Just got my FE Hasbro Bulkhead in the mail today. While he is positively awesome, I might be inclined to wonder if he was $72.00 worth of awesome if I wasn't just so glad to have him and thus end that particular ill fated hunt. Its done. Over. And his online prices are already exceeding what I paid.

I'm expecting my FE Prime and CJ to arrive probably tomorrow. Not going to bother with the FE Vehicon, but it would have been nice to have gotten that entertainment pack with Prime and Megs and kids. You would think that the EP would have been the ONE TFP item that Hasbro would have made sure was available everywhere, but what are ya going to do?

Right now, I'm unhauling my spares. I planned to hold on my MIB collection, but if I can just lower the credit card bill a little, I will be happy.

Click on my Ebay icon to see.

By the way, since I will never be able to get the pack with the kids, deluxe Megs and Prime, I openned my Comic Con 1st Ed. Prime box. The magnet is on the fridge, the box with Matrix is in storage, an Deluxe TF-Prime Optimus Prime stand proudly in my OP shelf.

I should get my BBTS order at work tomorrow (Starscream, Bumblebee, Arcee and Takara Cliffjumper) and my Tracking number for the FE voyager Prime I bought off ebay shows that I should get him tomorrow as well. It's going to be a good day for TFs.

Toys R Us and Target in the USA started stocking TF Prime figures very recently. Lucked upon a Cyberverse Cliffjumper, Arcee and Ratchet along with RiD Prime at my local Target. The shelves were nearly empty...still some Bumblebees there last night along with a single Bumblebee at Toys R Us. Not a fan of the B so I left him there.

Just took a couple of pictures to add...

My local TRU got in the deluxe and Voyager RID figures today. I missed out on the Soundwave and Megatron, but grabbed a Wheeljack.

Got th FE Entertainment Pack from eBay today :-)

RID Cliffjumper, 2 days ago. I also customized his horns

Why does everyone have better luck than me at TRU and Target with these Prime figures. I have to order this **** off of ebay for twice as much money :BANG_HEAD:

Picked up Deluxe Bumblebee and Cyberverse Cliffjumper, Bumblebee, Ratchet and Vehicon.

Got my Voyager FE Bulkhead in the mail today from an ebay seller in Canada. Awsome figure. Still waiting for My entertainment 2-pack to show up.

Received TakaraTomy FE Bulkhead in the mail today.

Wow.

This is one of the best looking Transformers ever made. Really. We're talking Buster Prime territory. If you thought it looked good in pictures, it looks at least twice as good in person. The worst thing that can be said about this guy is that he will make nearly all of your other Transformers look a bit (or a lot) wanting by comparison.

And I happened upon a bunch of fresh Prime: RID stock at TRU. Picked up Deluxe Soundwave and Cliffjumper along with several Cyberverse Legion figures: Bumblebee, Arcee, Cliffjumper, Ratchet, and Vehicon. (I have a feeling those Vehicons are going to be in short supply for a while.)

They had Voyager Optimus and Megatron, too; but, I passed on those. $27 is just too steep for these guys. I'll wait for them to show up at Target or Walmart. Both of these figures are kind of a let-down, anyway. Megatron looks especially drab (and quite fiddly in reviews). It's too bad they didn't just scale the First Edition Deluxe figure up. Hopefully we'll get a Leader class Megatron.

Snagged me a Soundwave out of a full 8-figure Wave 1 Deluxe Assortment from the Stock Room at Target. One of the best **** figures ever! I'm going to get Wheeljack on Saturday >:)

Plastic crack got the best of me. My wallet opened despite having spent by budget (and then some) on Takara FE's. Picked up Wheeljack in Target this evening.

No luck finding Soundwave though

by **Cheesinator** » Thu Feb 09, 2012 12:57 am

Got Soundwave, FE Starscream and 'Powerizer' Megatron so far. They're all great figures but Soundwave is easily my favourite.

As a bit of forewarning to others though, Soundwave is a fair bit shorter than Starscream (almost a full head shorter). I have no idea if Screamer is an especially large deluxe by today's standards, or if Soundwave is just smaller than average. It must be said though, Soundwave's size puts him in much better scale with Megatron.

FE Prime arrived this morning. He looks amazing!

by **Period** » Thu Feb 09, 2012 1:26 pm

Caved and bought Powerizer Prime, Deluxe Wheeljack, Cliffjumper and Bumblebee off of TRU.com. Should be getting it this Saturday. Though the prices were marked up a bit, I've had an itch to buy something and the stores around me only have DOTM stuff.

I think this is the line that will finally draw me away from my scale issues. Each piece looks nice, regardless of accuracy.

I also grabbed a few Bot Shots Monday for son. Not sure if that counts for Prime though.

Nabbed a Tf Prime RId Wheeljack and MAN is he fantastic.. Great transformation and articulation.. Looks like I may sub classics WJ for this guy..
If you have not picked one up already don't hesitate when you come across one!

Picked up my first Prime Haul at Target today. They had them on the shelves, so I guess they aren't waiting until the refresh or w/e its called.

Soundwave still evades me, which is a shame as he is the one I wanted most. I probably could have passed on BB for now, but I figured I mind as well get him now. I'm sure there will be 400 Bumblebee lying around from this line just like all the ROTF and DOTM BB.

I found a decent haul today at Target.

Transformers Prime Cybervere Legion Class Ratchet
Transformers Prime Cybervere Legion Class Vehicon
Transformers Prime Cybervere Legion Class Arcee

$5 each. they had an entire peg dedicated to Bumblebee (8-10), a handful of Cliffjumpers, 2 Vehicons, and only 1 Arcee and Ratchet so a pretty nice find all things considering.

That you are right. The Prime Deluxe RID Wave 1 Assortment includes:
Bumblebee x3
Cliffjumper x2
Wheeljack x2
Soundwave x1

I found this to be true when the nice people at target let me pick what I wanted from a full assortment of Wave 1 Deluxes. Of course I picked up Soundwave.

Maybe that's why many people can't find Soundwave. He's short packed. And you'll see Bumblebee warming up the shelves.

Takara Cliffjumper arrived today!
Oddly, without its "stand"..

by **Mr_Wayne** » Fri Feb 10, 2012 4:34 pm

Fe bulkhead just came in. He's pretty cool. And a buddy of mine just called me from toys r us he's gonna grab me a rid cliff jumper, but bc there is only one he is getting a wheeljack for himself. Other than that i got Fe prime last week and picked up Fe bee and arcee when they were released on toysrus.com.
