Got Dead End and love him, no Airachnid of course. Surprised since it was out here instead of the bigger capital city area which hasn't gotten it yet. Yes, I asked.

^ Wrong series mate.

[King Kuuga]

Man, Wave 4 is showing up in some places and I've only seen one store in my area with wave 3. Still haven't scored a single Vehicon. I did pick up Hot Shot the other day, though. MAN does he make that mold shine.

[datguy86]

Thanks to my lovely wife and a gift card, I snagged Airachnid, Dead End, and the new Bumblebee figure.

Yeah, that's right. There's one less Bumblebee on the shelves.

[Cobalt Prime]

Went to my local Y'All-Mart hunting for Dead End, Airachnid, or a Vehicon. Found none of those, but got a Cyberverse Starhammer and Energon Driller as consolation prizes.

[Archatron]

Got Airachnid today. I don't care if she transforms again or not, those "arms" are getting replaced and that stupid chair removed ASAP. It's awful as it stands out of the box.

[PrymeStriker]

Pretty much went to Target looking for Knock Out or Vehicon and ended up getting DOTM "Movie Trilogy Series" Deluxe Prime w/ Trailer on clearance instead. So I went over to my local Wal-Mart in hopes to find them, and had no luck, but instead picked up Deluxe Hot Shot and Cyberverse Knock Out w/ Energon Driller.

I return home with $50 gone from mah wallet and 3 boxes to open. Oh dear...

Have to agree, Arachnid is not quite what I would hope in a fig, arm articulation is the pits…actually, articulation in general stinks.

Arcee's arms will work with some modding. A guy on TFW (Tcracker) did his that way and it's so much better even though the alt is heavily hurt. I'd much rather have a better bot mode considering we've seen the heli mode like two times tops IIRC. Heli is spot on though besides the blades. They got that right at least. I wish they could've done better but guess they can't all be great.

[SkyWarpt]

I think they should have taken more time to possibly make her a triple changer….although that may be tough to pull off…hate the bot mode. I tell you what though….the Dead End is friggin awesome! I never buy repaints…but between the paint apps and piping, I would have chosen him over Wheeljack any given day. He looks like a wicked exclusive fig.

[Archatron]

He really is. It's surprising the repaint (Dead End) is the star of this wave. Takara Breakdown coming soon will wash the Airachnid funk off for me. I am impressed with how well he turned out.

I was actually about to buy Wheeljack when Dead End was announced, haha. I'm perfectly comfortable skipping him, as I don't like to buy repaints. Plus, there's a Marlboro decoed Legion Wheeljack slated for release, and I've long since decided I'm just going to go the cyberverse route to collect the cast with a few Deluxes or Voyagers I really like, like voyager Optimus and I'll probably pick up deluxe Arcee at some point.

[Sirtank]

After striking out on my toy run tonight, I ordered the Drill and Starhammer from hasbro, and bought Am-12 Breakdown from and ebay seller in Japan.

[Cyberseven]

I haven't updated this post in a while so I am not sure where I left off.

I am well into my Prime FE and RID collection now.

Voyagers:
Optimus, Megatron, Starscream, Bulkhead, and (AM-12 Breakdown is on his way)

FE Deluxes:
Arcee, Starscream, Bumblebee, entertainment pck Optimus, entertainment pck Megatron, Arcee & Bumblebee NYCC.

RID Deluxes:
Cliffjumper, Ratchet, Wheeljack, Vehicon (3), Soundwave, Knockout. (2 Takara Jet Vehicons on the way)

RID Cyberverse Commander:
Bulkhead, Ironhide, Megatron, Dreadwing.

Now I am just waiting on some more Voyagers coming out and a couple of Deluxes. After that I will be focusing on FOC.

[King Kuuga]

Today I snagged Commander Dreadwing and Nightwatch Optimus Prime. Haven't found Ironhide or Ultra Magnus yet.

[fenrir72]

Is Optimus Maximus and the cyberverse commander class counted? Got that one and FE Tomy Optimus and Tomy Soundwave.

[RAcast]

Snagged deluxe wave four's Dead End (who is hideously AWESOME) for myself and Airachnid for a friend of mine (who actually managed to find a decent pose out of the thing!).

[Fox Thiagarajan]

Cyberverse Night Watch OP and Ultra Magnus as well as Energon Driller set with Legion Knock Out.

[Autobot032]

Energon Driller with Knock Out.

AWE. SOME.

I still want the Starhammer with Wheeljack, but after looking at it, not all that impressed, really. I went for the shortpack, first. I think the Starhammer will be a big shelfwarmer, honestly.

Oh, and even though it's out of scale, the PRID and FE Vehicons can stand in the cockpit and touch the controls. How neat is that?!

[PrymeStriker]

Wow that's really neat! I have the driller, but no Vehicons. Now I know how to display at least one of them

[Archatron]

Got another Airachnid and you can pull of a decent spider mode with two sets of propellers. You actually need two Airachnids plus an Arcee (to hack up for new arms) to come out with one decent (-ish) figure. Pretty slick Hasbro........

[grimdragon2001]

Picked up Dead End today at TRU, was really surprised since we normally dont see new waves til weeks after everyone else gets them here in FL

Amen. I saw Knock Out once here in the Palm Beaches but I didn't have money for him, and he's gone the next day. And guess what; that was May 20th. I haven't seen him in what will be 2 months. The only Wave 3 figure I've seen since then is Hot Shot, and I already have him >_>.

Florida gets tail end of this crap
