I almost pulled the trigger on Grimlock, but I'm gonna wait and see if I can catch a sale in-store.

Of note, I saw that leader Blackout is currently the #1 seller in action figures on amazon.

Hmmm, wasn't Stinger new with Grimlock in Movie 4 and not 3? If so, then Amazon's error not Seibertron's.

A 2 headed ksi shockwave bot would be awesome. I'm probably one of the few but I really want a leader class rotf demolishor

Awesome,

Really glad to see that whole series is available on Amazon. My Grimlock and Blackout from Hasbrtoyshop.com are on FedEx truck for delivery as we speak. Saving $15 is nice. I would have bought this morning on Amazon had I not snagged Monday.

I would definitely love a leader demolisher. So glad I jumped on these and even got the Amazon prime free trial so theyll be bere on Saturday. This is why Jeff Bezos is a genius. Had to support Amazon, cant be no chump ! :BOWDOWN:

I would rather have that than Thundercracker to be honest. >:oP

Not that I'll ever see Thundercracker.

dang... that scene with Prime and Bones was awesome and a decade later we still can't reproduce it well with figures.

can a 3P/KO company upscale the deluxe (with some improvements) if nothing else?

Demolishor was completely different than any other bot in the movies and he was huge! It would go great with the new Voyager prime but since he is a decepticon from the most hated movie it probably won't ever happen (for the record rotf is my favorite).

A two headed ksi shockwave clone wouldn't be too hard for Hasbro to make. Just make some sort of tr compatible two head attachment but that is also a pipe dream. Thundercracker is cool enough I guess but the only reason I will buy him is that it's the last toys r us exclusive.

I'll be patient and wait to see how much Walmart prices them. If they remain the same, then I will pass on these.

I got all excited and googled it but it turns out the only one i can find is a leader class sized one which looks nice but is far too big (and expensive) to scale with Studio Series and is why I asked for voyager. Dangit.

Oh well, hopefully my Starscream arrives tomorrow.

I ordered Blackout. Had a $10 gift card to Amazon. He'll be here tomorrow. Probably the only in this series I'll pick up unless I come across Thundercracker. Not a movie fan, but Blackout just looks amazing.

thanks for the heads up on this lads.

Grimlock was going for $49.99 which with conversion and postage/import duty to ireland he came out as €63.84.

bog standard leaders here (like sixshot for instance) when they DID turn up retailed for €60 euro so im well happy with snagging him at near that.

cause i can tell you one thing, he WONT turn up at retail here and amazon.co.uk is looking for over a hundred euro for the lad.

ive spread the word to fellow irish fans so more can take advantage of this.

Hey. So i was just checking HasbroToyShop on Ebay (http://stores.ebay.com/hasbrotoyshop?_t ... 7675.l2563) for any good deals on Tfs, they have some petty good deals (including free shipping on orders of $14.99 or more), but they also have Studio Series Bumblebee in stock for $19.99 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Transformers-St ... 4b3f83ce8a) and Rescue Bots Knight Watch Optimus Prime in stock for $24.99 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Playskool-Heroe ... 33e67965e2)

I nearly jumped on Grimlock when he was on HTS and again last night on amazon, but I really need to wait, and it's hard to wait when he looks that good.

The leaders to me appear to be the shining stars of the line. They are both really good and apparently very popular.

Want to know my secret shame?

I really wish we were getting a new Skids and Mudflap in this line. :michaelbay:

Do we know yet if the figures revealed this far are the only ones in the line or could there be more based on sales/fan feedback?

We haven't seen Deluxe Bee Movie Bumblebee, Voyager Ironhide, or Voyager RotF Starscream with the marks all over his jet mode. Ironhide is supposed to be wave 3 in September and Screamer is wave 4 in November. Bee was supposed to be wave 1, but where the movie got pushed back to December there's most definitely a Deluxe wave 3 and 4 since they wouldn't put that figure in wave 2. Plus a Japanese retailer order list included two more unnamed leaders. So the line is definitely running to the end of the year and there's likely several figures we haven't seen yet. No Voyager Bonecrusher, though. Not in 2018 anyway. If the line continues into 2019, you never know.

That's a relief. Aside from wanting Bonecrusher like everyone else, my real dream toy would be a figure of 1st movie Megatron. That design was always my favorite and no toy ever came close to doing it justice.
