I know that at first sight, Laserbeak seems to just be black. But when you compare him to Buzzsaw, you can see how much more paint he has, and none of that extra paint is black. His inner wings are fully painted in this nice red. Its really cool to see since fully painted pieces are rare these days. Plus, the buttons on the side of the tablet/phone (which are at the bottom of the feet) are painted silver on laserbeak and left unpainted on Buzzsaw, and Lazerbeak has more paint on his head and an extra purple paint app within the silver square at his tail.

Speaking of paint, I was curious to see if the older gen toys did have more paint and well... yeah they did. I was very surprised to look at Roadbuster again. Painted hubcaps/mags, and most of the alt mode is painted with half of it being a green piece that is covered in brown overlapping orange paint. I was retroactively impressed (no wonder takara's isn't that different from hasbro's).

Oh just like Rumble being blue (Red) and Frenzy being Red (Blue) :lol:

I would laugh if they did an unaltered re-release of Rumble (ergo, in red) and named it Frenzy. FIRRIR!

Despite the sticker issue, I'm very excited about the upcoming Voyager Megatron. My current Classics representation of Megatron is the GDO Bludgeon repaint and while I like that figure, the TR version is much more of a proper representation of the character.

I know what you mean, I'm using a custom Prime voyager Megatron as my CHUG Megatron. But not sure if this new one will replace it until I see the Takara version(if they do one). Hopefully it will have silver paint and none of the lame stickers. But I do use Prime First Ed. Optimus in my CHUG collection so its not that bad of a fit so far.

fenrir72 wrote:Different time, different animals but browsing among online orders, TR Fortmax seems to range from US$ 100 to US$ 150. And he is less "meaty" than the 1986 version which retailed at around US$ 80 up. So by inflation adjustments, US$ 80 ++ is the buying power of US$ 100 to 150?

$80 in 1986 would be $176 in 2016. Inversely, $150 today would be about $68 in 1986. What a deal!

nevermind.
youre talking about deluxes right
tman978 found wave 2 at walmart for 10 in his latest toy hunt if that helps

The attachment IMG_20161105_095339.jpg is no longer available

Yes I was talking about deluxes, many have said they spotted them at Walmart but there is no photo proof out there. We can only make an article if we have proof.

Good thing I've got a bad habit of not throwing out my receipts right away.

Note the date.

Fellow Seibertronians, hot on the heels of being alerted to their being out at big by stores by Tfurry2, fellow Seibertronian Lonhaullaser has provided photographic proof that the Titans Return deluxe's have filtered their way to stores other than Walgreen's. Below is a receipt of his that shows that all four deluxes were available at Walmart afew days ago just northeast of Pittsburgh. Have you had any sightings of the wave 2 figures? If you have, be sure to not only sound off in the comments below, but also in the sightings thread of your area to help fellow fans out!

Bought all 4 of them last Sept 2@ walmart

News Credits: 387 · by **Bounti76** » Mon Nov 07, 2016 3:46 am

I posted on the sightings page for each of the individual figures when I found them. September 4th at a Target in Centerville, Utah. I would have kept the receipt, but I didn't know this was news.

News Credits: 3 · by **MarkNL** » Mon Nov 07, 2016 5:34 am

Bought Alpha Trion on September 21st in the Netherlands. They also had Astrotrain. Few weeks ago the wave 2 Titan Masters started popping up as well.

: Titan Returns Deluxe Wave 2 Receipt

These are just northeast of Pittsburgh. They didn't have many when I bought them. Walmart near me has horrible distribution, which often requires me to buy online.

So like, Peaugh's Megatron has stickers already applied and he says they're factory applied but

Megs doesn't seem to have any stickers on his chest in the box.

News Credits: 1642 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Mon Nov 07, 2016 8:55 am

Other reviewers have also had the stickers pre-applied. It might be a case of the in-box display at the conventions did not include the stickers applied and they decided to make it a last minute thing, like how Laserbeak has instructions for putting stickers on but they are pre-applied

MyFigureCollection.net collection · by **Emerje** » Mon Nov 07, 2016 9:30 am

Yeah, I wouldn't consider anything shown at a convention ahead of release to necessarily be a 100% representation of the final product. Hasbro seems to suddenly like stickers and it's probably cheaper to have a big roll of stickers at a factory a worker can apply than to make individual sheets to stick the box.

If the factory stickers are as bad as Peaugh says I really hope Reprolabels gives us options with a separate factory replacement sticker set in addition to their usual amazing sticker set to chose from should the factory stickers need to be replaced.

On a side note, do you think Hasbro and Takara will redeco Megatron in his G2 colors? I only ask because that's how he was listed a while back.

Dammit, I didnt note the date, I just sent this in to the news team as proof that they are at walmart. They had appeared briefly, back when you got it, and then dissapeared only to reappear recently. And with everyone wanting wave 2 and not finding it, I was hoping that was proof that they were at walmart now. Many epople have said hey were but there is still 0 photo evidence that wave 2 deluxes are presently at walmart. However, you still helped quite a bit Emerje since that news post helped us get photo evidence of more recent findings from longhaulaser so it all worked out in the end.

I hope you guys and girls all find your wave 2s!!!!!!!!!

I was just looking at Reprolabels' Chromedome stickers and I wish I could just purchase one version of the sticker sheet once I get Chromedome instead of having to get all the options. All I really want is the sticker that turns his visor into his ninja eyes.

I hear you, all I want for soudnwave is the stickers for his knees since that part looks blatantly empty. But no instead they give you a whole kit completely turning the alt mode into a boombox (getting rid of any retooling) and turning the inside into a disco. That's fun for some people, sure, but I wish they gave options where you could get the more wacky stuff aside.

You did a good job Bounti, your instincts were right on track, it wasnt news then since they were being found there, but since there wasnt any restock since, we were looking for news of them being there now.

It was odd that wave 2 came and then the only restock was wave 1 (both in the US and Canada). And now we just wanted to show that the US (and canada, in a previous post) were finally getting wave 2 back

News Credits: 4835 · by **william-james88** » Mon Nov 07, 2016 11:00 am

I just got Astrotrain and Alpha Trion. Not a huge fan of Trion, I really dont like that lion mode and there is a real missed opportunity getting the lepvis to peg in with a tab right under the torso.

Anyways, Astrotrain is great. Just great. I liked the mold before but the colour scheme is a great cross between teh g1 toy and the cartoon and it is just the right tone of grey for the details to pop out. There is so much detail that was invisible on the bright orange Sentinel plastic. Most especially, I love those little squares at the base of the Astrotrain helmet. This toy looks awesome. I much preffer him to my Evilastar.

Not yet, Walmart doesnt price match very well but they have a kickass return policy. So, I buy them at walmart (for $22.50 USD) so I can have them right away and guarantee that I do have them and then when they show up at TRU, I buy them with my raincheck (which would make them $16 USD each) and return them in box to walmart to get my money back. I just did it with the wave 2 deluxes and Rumble last friday.
