Also thank you to everyone who contacted me via PM about my recent purchasing issues. Just as an update, Kapow has missed out on about £400 worth of sales from me so far which have gone to Ebay/TF express, and as of yet(3 days short of 1 month), I'm still waiting for them to complete my order. I've sent out no less than 10 emails to both Mat and Andy to resolve, and even though they have stated they will ship out the missing item, I have yet to receive anything. So for all of you who have had great service, I hope this continues, but please be aware that if something goes wrong, you could be in for a long wait to get it resolved (if it gets resolved). Very close to taking it higher if nothing is done soon.
Just to keep in the spirit of toy sightings, My local Smiths (Teesside)have the TR Soundwave, Generations Skywarp, and Starscream Leaders in stock. They don't scale well with my current collection, but good to know they are still being stocked for those who do like them. My local Tesco's have the combiner force figures in stock, but none of the new wave of Titans yet. they do have about 10 wheelies though.

Sweet naff all else apart from endless Chromedomes.
All the local Toys R Us have stopped stocking Titans Returns and just have pegs full of RID at stupidly high prices.
It really looks like the major toy retailers are dropping Titans Return lines in favour of RID and maybe clearing space for movie lines in the near future. No hope of seeing Wave 4 or 5 properly in the east of england

I don't think we've had anything from wave 4 yet, except for stuff at Orbital comics, and those were grey imports, London only.

Ha! If that's what these boxsets are going for, massive pass.

What the ****
I expected like, 120 or 130 for RRP at most; and granted IDT does dabble in a bit of scalping, but... this is utterly ridiculous. I get there's MTMTE and Laser Prime fans out there but I don't think any of us want to pay that much, bloody hell...

I'm interested in the set as well, but I'll wait to get it elsewhere. I believe it's cheaper at Robot Kingdom.

Not sure if any of the older members here remember me but I used to be extremely active a few years back until having children scuppered things lol.
Good to see there is still a uk contingent keeping seibertron active.
Now when I used to collect it was either tru smyths or kapow. I've done some business with I'd recently but is there anywhere else new around? Not a fan of importing from the USA though
