Go git 'em fellas!

Well, Soundwave at least is already 'out of stock' on HTS. Still, it is wise to check periodically. HTS has a weird habit of putting an item up, and the item is immediately out of stock. And only after a day or so does it ACTUALLY become available.

I almost bought Soundwave last night, but before he came in stock I spent $200 on myself and Christmas presents. and then he's gone

Probably more a space issue - need to make room for new product.

Why are figures so darn expensive does no one get that more people are willing to buy stuff when it doesn't cost one their darn grocery's and other necessities?

Why would you get it from the states if you are in canada? Do you have a buddy it would ship to what you go visit regularly by car? Because if not then it would not been a deal at all. Shipping to Canada would have been an easy $50-70 USD, making the product the same as if you bought it from amazon.ca yesterday: http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/ ... ada/36818/

It's the shipping that's murder!

Because it's expensive to manufacture in terms of both materials and labor, and as a large item it costs a lot to ship to the warehouse, and every step along the way from the factory to your house requires someone to get paid. So an item that costs ~$40 in materials ends up with a retail price of $150 to cover all those costs. When they sell it at $75, they're barely scraping a profit from it, or maybe they're even selling it at a loss (relative to how much it costs them to stock) to clear space.

Ordered mine yesterday and got it in today.

Pays to be patient though I doubt I'll be all that patient with Trypticon if he's done right. Ft Maxx and Metroplex I waited till they were on sale. But Tryp he'll likely be a day one pre-order.

Absolutely no friggin' clue what gimmick that could be though. Then again, not like the name Titans Return would immediately make you think Headmasters.

From the Machinima Combiner Wars thread, since we got news on two more Prime Wars machinima instalments.

ooh high chance i will be able to get the other titan for christmas this year

Guess i wont be getting apeface then, hasbro better be shipping out a metric ton of wave 3 to make up for their stupidity on wave 2. Not to mention its christmas shopping time and its going to be even harder to find stuff.

All my stores only had wave 1 stuff. I have yet to see wave 2 stuff in the wild, and the stuff that the stores had in the back to restock... was all wave 1.

Argh

This is really odd to me. How one area of the states could be completely ignored. In canada, everything is pretty much equal. The warehouse gets a shipment, it is divided up in weighted averages to stores across the country and sends it out. Specific areas or stores are rarely ignored.

Pretty big weighted average

Hasbro evidently shipped out ALL of their wave 2 stock, so the problem lies not with them. And Apeface has been readily available in my area for a few weeks now. Where do you live? Have you checked your sightings forum?

Thanks for telling me about the shipping.


My previous comment was just me upset and tired in the early morning for not picking him up.

With wave 3 hitting US retail, we are realizing that this is happening before Titans Return Soundwave, who is from wave 2, has been found at any brick and mortar retail store. What is odd is that we know he has hit US retail since he is readily available on Amazon.com (ship and sold by Amazon) for 44.80. So, just in case some of you were looking for this toy and thinking he had not hit retail yet, you can get him on Amazon.

I couldnt resist. I like Megs too much.

Too early for a "Power of the Primes" product thread?

We're not even half-way through Titans Return. Anywhere between Summer and Winter of next year should be fine.

We can only have a thread on products if we have products to talk about.
