While I sympathize, several ans here have said they could not find Wolfwire in the wild yet.

Wave 2 was hardly clogging up pegs locally. I only found Wolfwire in the wild once. Highbrow and Mindwipe tended to last a few days, but not more than a week on shelves. Wave 3 has been nearly nonexistent. More often than not, pegs around here are either empty or have a few Wave 1 Deluxe leftovers.

Between Titans Return and Voltron, my store trips of late have been one big exercise in frustration.

I hope you find your Voltron, that combining toy is amazing!

Thanks. I'm just a red arm and yellow leg short!

Oddly enough, my local Walgreens has been good with moving Deluxe waves (just deluxe,mind you) They're up to wave three and I think I've seen all the figures out and one point or another.

My local Toys R Us. Not so good.

^All I've ever seen at Walgreens is deluxe, and yes they do move fairly well...has anyone ever seen any other size toys for TR there?

for anyone interested, and because I have not seen this on here, optibotimus has a review for Leader Class Titans Return Skyshadow.



Personally can't wait for Overlord though.

Since Generations toys are released first in Asia, and have been since Combiner Wars at least, we cover video reviews quite early on. The Black Shadow review was already on this very thread over a months ago: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=105496&p=1851165&hilit=chefatron#p1851165
So a video review ends up being old news at this point, relatively speaking, and we'd ask that they please be kept in their own section on the site: transformers-toy-review-forum-f227.php

Thank you

It seems pretty unlikely he'd ever get his own data pad though it would be a nice complement to Stripes

I wager he'd be an exclusive if they ever were to plan him, but the name maybe present a problem. "Decepticon Enemy" just sounds off.

I'm still waiting for an homage to Slamdance, the vehicle modes chosen have to be intentional:

Decepticon "N.M.E.," perhaps?

Just need to finaggle a way to combine them into Slam Dance.

Wow, some people out there really are desperate. You guys think that Walgreens $20 a deluxe is bad? Toy Dojo got their hands on Titans Return Wave 4 and is selling deluxes at 24.99 with Krok and Quake at one dollar more since they are shortpacked. And you know what, aside from Krok and Quake, its all sold out!!!



I am pretty baffled that people think it can be so bad out there that paying almost $70 for Black Shadow is fine.

Frenzy is red, Rumble is Blue. Crumble before Rumble, and everyone else can go suck it.

Get two of them! One can be toy Rumble, and the other can be cartoon Frenzy

She'll go on a decapitation spree... and that's how Titan Masters were made!

WJ - I'm a big fan of Toy Dojo, so I feel like I should speak up here. As the description mentions, the jacked up price is because they got these early because they paid for faster shipping. They explained it in more detail in their FB group (Dojo Disciples). I think these were shipped via air, and probably only have a handful. The collectors who don't care about price probably snatched it all up (needless to say, I'm not one of them). I'm not sure how they'll be selling the deluxes, but for Six Shot, they have the jacked up price version available now, and the regular one for $46.99 available for preorder.

Generally speaking, Toy Dojo's prices are in line with all the other big online retailers. Where they truly shine is their customer service.

Thanks! I realize it sounded like I was speaking ill of Toy Dojo, but my main point was to show that there are fans out there who really dont care and will pay that price. That always surprises me.
