July

Isn’t Long Haul in the same wave as DOTM Optimus? Pulse doesn’t show Prime coming into stock until September 1.

I don't understand, DOTM Optimus is leader class wave 3 while Long Haul is Voyager class wave 7

Waves in various size classes are rarely in synch for across the board.

Ah, ok. I thought they were coming out at the same time, hoping there was a chance that I get Prime earlier than Pulse’s estimate. It’ll be a long wait, but I have paint work on Ironhide and hopefully Sideswipe and Barricade to do in the meantime!

I found all Rampages and BB Optimus Primes this side of Texas at my local Walmart. Same story with Jetfire and DotM Megatron at the other: on the shelf en masse, with leftover on the top. The Voyager case ratio does seem a bit lopsided, I counted... 12 boxes on the main shelf, and only 2 of them were Optimus Prime. May not have that much trouble getting him later :lol:

I wish I could make up my mind on what to get tho: Skytread and Cog before they go, or Scrapmetal and Rampage... :BANG_HEAD:

Out of those 4, Scrapmetal is by far the most fun to me, and I have 3 Cog's.

Ugh!

Ordered Bonecrusher online, and then today he showed up in Target! Unbelievable.

Oh well, still stoked for him to get here, and now he really can't get here fast enough.

Also funny, so far Scrapmetal is the figure disappearing fast around here, and Shatter is the one that seems to be the slowest moving of the new figures.

That’s awesome to hear, unfortunately sometimes that happens. I have held back trying to ordering anything on line. It seems better when you can find it, in a store.
Funny to say, Scrapmetal is hanging out also in stores around here, to include Shatter, which at this point, she is keeping her counterpart, Dropkick company.
Definitely depends where you are at and which store on which ones hang out.

You are exactly right about Shatter. That’s why she is in car mode without arms, lol!

I prefer to find things in stores, and it's more laid back and enjoyable to find!

It's just been 3 months since I saw the deluxes and I have had no luck with the voyagers, I wanted to make sure I don't miss. Bonecrusher is my fav too, so I really was sad I hadn't seen him

That is exactly what I am talking about. There is just something about finding that particular bot or con you want in the store. It’s like you achieved something.

Wolfman Jake wrote:We reported a while back that a listing for Transformers: Studio Series SS-31 Voyager Class Battle Damaged Revenge of the Fallen Megatron (Whew, what a mouthful!) had been found on the United States Target.com website. At the time, this special edition of the Revenge of the Fallen Megatron figure, featuring a resculpted head and scorch-mark paint applications, was not available to purchase or pre-order quite yet. That's changed now as Seibertron.com user bounti76 was able to order SS-31 Megatron from Target.com as of last night (Wednesday, March 27, 2019)! It's important to note that, as of the time of publishing this article, the Target.com listing for SS-31 Megatron again has his listed as "Temporarily Out of Stock" for online ordering, so you may need to keep checking back frequently. Luckily enough, if you want your Battle Damaged Megatron sooner rather than later, he is available in select Target stores now too! Check with Target.com to see if SS-31 Battle Damaged Megatron is available in one of your local stores! A lucky fan named Grimlock25 over on http://www.tfw2005.com found one about a week ago at a Target store in Largo, Florida, USA! Take a look at this photographic evidence provided by Grimlock25 below, along with some nice stock photography of this highly anticipated figure for the Studio Series line!

Will you be picking up Battle Damaged Megatron any time soon? Had you passed on the first release in favor of a redeco down the line? Are you impressed enough to double-dip on this figure if you picked up the regular SS-13 Voyager Class Megatron earlier? Tell us what you think in the comments below, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com for the latest news on all things Transformers!

HEY! been meaning to reply to this one but been a bit. I was debating getting the ebay ones that were at $60 to have it sooner. so glad I waited lol. As I also saw this online while out of stock. Then got lucky enough to purchase thru target website for shipping but then, Walk into a local target that said limited Supply?! and Voilà! Now a week later and online order still not ready =( just waiting to see how long it takes then cancel order. went to a another target yesterday and saw 2 there.

It feels better and feels more relaxed too, like oh wow, here are the deluxes I have been looking for! Scoops them up, take them home, and instant gratification.

I got all my shipping notices, so all 3 are going to arrive tomorrow along with MP-43, and I will be away for my sisters birthday for the weekend so I won't even get to see them till Monday

Picked up Deluxe Shatter tonight. Haven't transformed her yet, but bot mode is pretty good.

News Credits: 2 · by **Spider5800** » Fri Apr 05, 2019 10:58 pm

Did some store hopping between Target's today and found the new waves, although none of them had everything (one had the new voyagers, one had the deluxes, and one had the leaders, weirdly). Grabbed a Bonecrusher and Bumblebee Optimus Prime at one and Cogman at another, couldn't really afford to pick up any more right now.

REEEEEEALLY debating picking up all the new Constructicons and selling my old RotF ones, but I also really don't have anywhere to put Devastator if I manage to complete him

You don’t necessarily need to sell of your ROTF Constructicons, considering that the climax of the film reviled there were multiples of many of the Constructicon components scattered throughout the battlefield.

Huh.... specifically talks about combining with 44. Now I want to double check the instructions. Was compatiblity with the second voyager just a “happy bonus”....

Not really, 32 Optimus Prime is simply a "cheaper option" compared to the 44 Leader from DotM since they're the same base mold (the trailer bumped 44 to Leader Class). The abdomen is made to be switched out.

I missed out on TLK "Premiere" Cogman when it came out. In fact, in my location, it appeared he wasn't even stocked. However, I went to one of the better-stocked Walmarts this last Saturday, and found Studio Series Cogman. Granted, he may go on clearance, but I didn't want to risk missing out on him again. ;)^

Wave 4 for TLK was a lost wave for the US, it never made it to regular retail and only showed up at TJ Maxx/Ross ahead of Christmas time last year.

I was lucky enough to find one at Ross, and got the Studio Series version a couple weeks ago. The Studio Series one is far better on the paint apps, so if you collect the movie lines, that is the one you would want anyway.

I agree, No problems, except for the loose arms. Easily fixed.

She's really good, especially after giving her some better hip articulation.

Had a little luck at my local Target yesterday. Picked up Scrapmetal and Shatter. Scrapmetal is essentially everything I thought he’d be. Very cool looking bot mode. Lots of fun. The transformation is just a little lacking for my tastes, and the vehicle mode is fine. I do wish he had been a voyager. But given how cool he is in bot mode, and that I know he’ll be combining with his fellow Constructicons, I can overlook any very minor personal quibbles I might have.

I’m a little luke warm on Shatter. The sculpting and level of detail on her is fantastic, and I really dig the long legs. My main problems are that she’s kind of a pain to transform. Partly because her arms and the two side pieces of her hood pop right off if I so much as touch them. I’m also not a fan of her head sculpt. It just doesn’t look like her.

Much like Dropkick, I really do feel like him and her would have been better served if they had been Voyagers. Maybe ones a little on the small side, but Voyagers nonetheless. Whereas Dropkick was a disappointment all the way around, at least Shatter is heavily detailed and looks good.

Sadly I didn’t find Bonecrusher, Rampage, Bee movie OP, RotF OP, or the Target exclusive Megatron. There were a few Cogmans (Cogmen?), but seeing as how I absolutely loathe that character, I left them. I’m sure he’s a fun enough toy.

@Bucky, what state are you from?

News Credits: 1641 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Mon Apr 08, 2019 5:58 pm

Got Optimus, Bonecrusher, and Rampage and opened them tonight.

Optimus feels so good! This is a great Optimus so far, glad I waited for him. I need to combine him with Jetfire eventually.

Rampage is so heavy and tight. He feels great, awesome quality.

Bonecrusher is adorably hateful. I love him so far!
