I do have to wonder if Hasbro would be willing to give Decepticons some UT homages of their own with Demolishor (an easy retool of any tank guy, really) or even a Cybertron Megatron. Latter seems unlikely unless they can figure a way to make him a retool of someone else in the next two installments. Sadly can't think of anyone.

I would love to see them take the opportunity with Fasttrack to really have him integrate well with whatever Scorponok ends up being. Like have his component pieces be great guns but can also double as towers or repair equipment, something like that.

Hmm, I wonder if they'll just retool Omega Supreme for him.

I was looking at my Trypticon for the longest time just at his torso and wondering if there was any way they'd end up repurposing that for a future Titan and I can see a little Scorpy in there.

I do hope that we'll get Scorponok as the titan in the next line. Mostly because he's long overdue. Though, I can't decide if I would want them to keep the headmaster the same size as the other headmasters and give him a helmet, or give him a legends class headmaster maybe with the option of storing a normal sized headmaster (sorta like Trypticon with Full-Tilt storing Necro). And I'd imagine that if they did, they'd either include Fasttrack with Scorponok or make him available in the same line

I just assumed that they would make him a double head master, with the larger head master being Fasttrack. He's pretty much the right colors to turn into most of the head, he'd just need a face reveal!

He's got better things to do tonight than die...like hang out in Maryland Wal-Marts! That's right folks just in from Rocky Fon Leard on Cybertron Cafe facebook group is an image of what appears to be a Wal-Mart with a case worth of Springers...ok that's two Springers but you get my general drift. Unfortunately there was no word provided on any other size classes they may have seen from this same highly expected wave.

Take a look around at your local Wal-Marts gang and if you happen to pick one up please be sure to hop onto our sightings section to report where the new wave is creeping up. Happy hunting everyone!

Found these guys at my local Walmart here in Daytona Beach, Florida!

I found two reflectors in a Walmart in Richmond CA. Along with two grunts and two red alerts. Unfortunately there were only 2 reflectors so I'm still on the hunt for one more.

News Credits: 55 · by **o.supreme** » Mon Jun 17, 2019 10:52 am

^Question though, do you find this particular Walmart to be an outlier that typically gets things early, or more to the normal end of the spectrum? Having these sighted in CA gives me some hope, but there are so many stores in my area, and they all seemingly get toys at different times.

Richmond isn't too far, so hopefully soon, even though a single Brunt is all Im looking for.....

by **G1OPT1MU5PR1M3** » Mon Jun 17, 2019 10:56 am

Then if I were you, I would go to the Walmart connected to the hilltop mall, because the box was out on a pallet and I left the two grunts. I just wanted the reflectors. And that was an hour ago. They get the toys randomly though.

News Credits: 56 · by **Nathaniel Prime** » Mon Jun 17, 2019 10:58 am

Yeah, my Walmart had the same thing too, so I believe they are being shipped as cases of two each, which means it won't be too hard to find a third Refraktor or Brunt for your collection.

About what I found:

1) All the complaints I had about Red Alert disappeared as soon as I saw him. His colors are perfect, and he looks great. The missing text don't bother me anymore, and the light bar looks great as translucent red.

2) Brunt is every bit I expected except he's shorter than I though he would be. But overall, probably my favorite Weaponizer.

3) Refraktor is just great. He's taller than I imagined, and I guess that's a good thing, and he has a really cool looking space cruiser mode. Camera is where it takes the cake though, but I only have 2 right now so I can't fully make it. I really feel this is a superior product to all the 3P versions out there, in terms of look, posabilty, and value.

Overall, this wave has some really great figures going for it, and I'm excited about the Voyager waves coming soon!

I just checked my NorCal WalMarts last night one right along the main 5 freeway where shipping seems better - nada. Totally dyin’ for these guys too.

So it begins

I have a mix of online retailer pre-orders, Hasbro Pulse pre-orders, and planned brick-and-mortar purchases. Hopefully that will help me be patient, as my local stores historically shelve after the early retailers.

That sounds super complex and efficient. My plan ends up feeling like a live action round of Chutes and Ladders with too many chutes, and so many ladders...so many.

And the other guy's plan sounds like a live action Monopoly movie with Dwayne Johnson as the Monopoly Man! :lol:

Either way, I hope the best of luck to all of you, may you find the figures you so must have in your collection soon

back on 2/20/19, news broke about listings for a Voyager Apeface & Leader Astrotrain for the Siege Line:

https://www.seibertron.com/transformers ... ore/42973/

However...since this news broke, we've gotten a few nice reveals of other figures presumably being released before these. I just wonder though... are the lines fluid enough that they could be pushed back as early releases for the 2020 line? It's just the lack of news thus far (which could change with SDCC)...and the fact that these are only 12 months lines now has me a bit skeptical. By this time last year, everything about PotP had been revealed, aside from any Selects or exclusives.

It is nice that Siege seems to have a more robust 4th wave, of which these 2 could certainly be a part of, but one would think their target date would be closer to October rather than December...

by **G1OPT1MU5PR1M3** » Mon Jun 17, 2019 2:31 pm

Found all three "Reflectors" (keeping it G1 at all times).
Just had to drive to a couple of Walmarts, but no springer

by **awesomelozinc** » Mon Jun 17, 2019 2:59 pm

Just found Siege Refraktor, 2 Red Alerts, and a Brunt at a Walmart here in Las Vegas, NV

by **G1OPT1MU5PR1M3** » Mon Jun 17, 2019 5:05 pm

SWEET, I use to live in Vegas. Good toy selections out there.
Even at the fleemarket on Decatur.

Went looking for Springer at my local Walmart, sadly they didn't have him yet, but I did get Shockwave and Ultra Magnus

Found the Wave 3 deluxes last night myself, but unfortunately, it looks as though Red Alert, Brunt, Reflector, and frikkin' Hound are packed equally. No Camera mode yet! Booooooooooooooooo

News Credits: 1641 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Mon Jun 17, 2019 6:40 pm

Also, does anyone have the codes for the WFC wave 3 deluxes? I'd like to take a peek at my other walmarts nearby to see if they stocked

Hey DMax do you mean UPC codes? When I look up on WalMart.com or Target I think there’s a default of Skytread for deluxes and Screamer for Voyagers.

Is there any way from home to check to see if my nearby stores have logged in the new guys but maybe don’t have a more formal listing yet? Am I making sense I feel like I’m not making sense...

Are you able to show me how or do you have to work there? No clue how that works but have always been curious.
