Tesco have also pulled a lot of their TF's from their website! with an Out Of Stock notice! I wonder if they will be also getting those Generations figures that B&M & The Entertainer are getting in?

Picked up a Whirl, probably looking for Sandstorm and Roadbuster for the Wreckers shelf next week when finances are a bit better. Only 'Buster on the shelf in Leeds today had some paint issues and no sign of a 'Storm at that branch.

another day, another B&M. Checked bootle strand and found nothing, not even a tag. Checked out switch island again. 2 sandstorms and a blitz wing. Nobody seems to be after either right now so I didn't grab em.

I did find the TRU exclusive version of the Kreo destruction site devastator set with the yellow g2 devvy and extra parts to build iron hide. Snapped it up in my excitement for £20, even though I already own the standard version of the set JUST for the elusive G2 Yellow Devastator Kreon.

I got it home, opened it, iron hide parts, check, ...


Green Devastator Kreon.

2 Years hunting for that little swine, finally thought I had him and it ends in a total waste of 20 notes.

This may be the single most disappointing moment in my collecting life so far. :-(

Yeah, I was at Killingbeck yesterday. I'm actually North Yorkshire based, way out in the sticks, so from here I can hit up Leeds. York or the multiple branches around Teeside about as easily as each other. I'll be looking at doing the Teeside ones next week I think so I should be covered. Thanks for the offer though.

The big B&M in Widnes (on the retail park with the new bowling alley and cinema) had one yesterday.

If thats too far, I may be able to pick it up for you tomorrow night... whereabouts in Manchester are you? I work in Altrincham if thats of use to pass it over?


Thanks for the offer - I work in Runcorn and live in Warrington which is a pain in the arse. I really should update my location as I've been in Warrington now for nearly 5 months. I should be able to get myself to Widnes at some point this week after work!

Hello,
I've just been out and cleared the shelves of B&M Milton Keynes :grin:

Anyone local to Bedford or Milton Keynes wants one of the following dropped off to them for cost + fuel money?

2x Roadbuster
1x Rhinox
1x Whirl

I am quietly hopeful I now have an in at my local b&m! One of the managers there has taken my name and number and offered to ring me whenever they get the generations stock in again. Tonight they only had 2 rhinoxs left which personally I'm not interested in.

I've got a whirl and a springer for myself to go with the doubledealer I bought from kapow a while back.

Will be interesting to see if they stock in some of the deluxe generations like windblade eventually.

Exactly what I'm hoping for, I like your thinking. We did see the Beast Hunters deluxes in discount shops after all. Maybe the 'lost' AOE stuff will turn up too. It's always an exciting time to be a TF fan over here...

I would love to see them stock things like that but as far as b&m go, they just stock what gets shipped to them

Yes, what a strange strategy to adopt ;). There's a shop around here which is just called 'Bargain Shop'. I can vouch for their honesty as far as Beast Hunters deluxes and 12-packs of Wotsits go.

Man, not driving makes this hunting business somewhat more of a hassle :lol:
I'm gonna have to see what I can do about making it down to the B&M that is apparently in Reading somepoint this week, I suppose even if I'm outta luck there it wouldn't be a wholly wasted trip as there's a some CW I need to catch up on from either the Entertainer or TRU

Yay! Birthday Goodies!

MP Wheeljack - lovely figure
MP Bee - I hate bumblebee because of his over saturation but I think MP is rapidly becoming my favorite TF EVER. HE IS SO CUTE!!!!! And there is some really amazing engineering there Love him.

Both of which came from TF EXPRESS (tm) so I am pretty impressed with them at this point.

I also go Brainstorm but I havent had much chance to play with him (other than to check he was the fixed version, by popping his head on and off 50 times).

In sightings news, my office mate is taking me to Smyths today to buy me toys so Iwill see what is there :)

Woot!

By "office mate" I mean "girl I share an office with". Who happily buys me toys TF's for Birthdays and Christmas. Because she is awesome. My wife also buys me TF's for Birthday and Christmas. She is also awesome. As does my Mum. I am a lucky 37 year old man-child. :)
