Visited Liverpool One TRU today, Scored Sentinel Prime, Terribull, Loudmouth and Nightbeat, (but no crashbash!!). They had the full voyager wave, and dupes of all the titan masters I got, along with a healthy restock of the legends wave.

I picked up a galvatron for £30 shipped off ebay so the galvayron on the shelf I left behind for another one of you lovely lads.

Happy hunting!!

Seriously guys, those of you still looking for titan returns wave 1, check this guy out:

https://www.facebook.com/The-Nottingham ... 607260633/


Message him or something. He's also got all of the wave 2 titan masters in, including Apeface (who is pretty damn adorable!). For who was after him earlier.


Not only can I vouch for him, but he's a dealer at TFNation.


And yes, I am going to keep pimping out his little store. Because that's what friends do. :BOT:



As for me, I've got Skullcruncher and Takara Hardhead this week. I don't know what it is, but I really love the deluxes. Moreso than the voyagers. Can't wait for Takara Blurr and Scourge to turn up.

The new Smyths store in Rotherham (Parkgate) had TR Powermaster Optimus Prime, Galvatron, and Sentinel Prime, as well as CW Leader Class Skywarp (reduced) when I was there on Friday. Very happy to bag myself Powermaster OP - brings back some serious childhood memories!

Not a sniff of them at all, and maybe just as well, after a quick 'brainstorm'. Classics brought me back in and made me look forward to the point they got around the '87 crew. I could handle the CW replacements, because there were replacements. This exclusive rubbish has made me think I'll draw the line here.
Please keep on topic.

Titans return deluxes in both Leeds smyths stores! 2 cases in each store so 4 of each figure. Just picked up Blurr, couldn't afford Hardhead as well so he will have to wait. Happy hunting!

Kapow have just restocked Brainstorm if anyone needs him :)

I ordered one quick as he is already silly money online.

Sainsburys in Crayford had CW Wave 5 in as well now... So glad I panic bought them as soon as I saw them thinking they weren't' going to hang around for long lol - The joys of being a British TF collector.

Might be in store only... And so far, I am the only person I know that has got them for £6, others I know have got them for £9. No Onslaught.

I picked up Swindle and Blast off, I have a Spare Brawl from a previous outing. I am going to check another branch in a while...

Might be a good opportunity to pick some up to keep minty fresh in box. Can't argue with that price. Might check this out.

Not really been into the combiners but for £9 or £6 a limb it seems like it could be fun......if I can muster the energy to haul myself down to local Asda Living.

I'm glad to hear that Sainsbury's have had wave 5 (you mean the Hound/Wheeljack/Trailbreaker/Smokescreen wave yes ?).

The only thing that puts me off buying them if I see them is that Sky Lynx is often more expensive bought on his own and I already have a set of Autobot Car limbs (Ironhide,Mirage,Sunstreaker & Prowl) who have no proper Torso and a Silverbolt with no limbs.

I got all the Combaticon limbs recently but as I never saw Onslaught I have to put them on Cyclonus... I've not even seen a Scattershot in the wild yet.

I hope Hasbro wake up from their slumber and realise they can do a refresh case of Combiner Wars Legends that includes the ones that are actually out in Europe like BlackJack, Viper & Huffer. they had no excuse for skipping them if they exist in European packaging already.
