I'm staying in Ilford this evening so on my journey home I'm going to try Loughton and Luton Smyths to see if anything other than Perceptors and Dreadwinds are available.

Smyths Loughton had barely anything.

Smyths Luton look to have Rippersnapper, Sludge and Snarl for wave 2 but nothing else.

I need to check portrack Lane smyths, I'm actually hoping that they have a mix of wave 1 and 2 so I can grab all dinobots

So I went to symths today at portrack Lane, and discovered...that they had no potp deluxes at all. No spaces for them even, they had the studio series, and had starscream and grimlock but that's it. I was very disappointed, guess it's online only for me this week, if I can find deletes somewhere for a good price.

Those are some incredible deals on the platinum sets, did you guys get any? And if you have a pic, we could news it too, unless of course this is all old news for those prices.

Already picked up the platinum sets from A1 way back when in a sale from lurking on another transformers site. I picked up a double of the cone heads to turn into unreleased g2's but the plastic hated the paint that I'd tried on Dirges wings.

This may be very store specific as it will just be leftovers, B&M has the Generations leaderclass Skywarp for £9.99

(Also Arrow figures for £7.99 each but they don't transform...)

Thank you for the offer! These are old news, however. A1 has been trying to shift those platinum sets for the better part of a year now (maybe 2? idk). They used to also have the one with G1 Blaster and Perceptor but I guess they finally liquidated those XD. I'm tempted by the Insecticons tbh.

Cyberverse toys have landed at Symths Toys Leicester, I would have posted while in store but there was a hideous unruly child screaming and seemingly following me around the store :HEADHURTS:

They have Shockwave, Optimus, Starscream and Bumblebee but no Megatron. Pics to follow if anyone is curious, I passed as basic design didn't do it enough for me to add to the collection.

I'll be passing on them myself but thanks for the update nonetheless...knowing my luck my oldest will fall into cyberverse so I'll still have to buy them...though he seems more preoccupied by marvel currently

More G1 reissues up on Kapow,

4 minibot set £39
https://www.kapowtoys.co.uk/transformer ... lebee.html

Starscream £40
https://www.kapowtoys.co.uk/transformer ... cream.html

Devastator £95
https://www.kapowtoys.co.uk/transformer ... t-set.html

Not sure which of the mini bots I already have and whilst it would be nice to get a guaranteed genuine devastator at some point. Wonder if there will be more reissues to come as it looks like hotrods started them up again.

That £95 for devy seems a bit steep for what the toy actually is.

@ZeroWolf Yep it is.

Other sighting in stores, Picked up Tashimus Prime (Rodimus Unicronus) from the Entertainer £39.99
They had some skrapnels back in stock but I still couldnt find a Slash.

Still waiting to see if amazon UK ever have Nemesis Prime or if we have to get an amazon exclusive from Not Amazon

Entertainer in Northampton have a new case of wave one POTP legend class. I took a Slash but they still had one left. (No pun intended).
I also got Rodimus Unicronus. But his travel bud was Optimis Prime. I thought wave 2 leaders were Opimal Optimus and RU?
Smiths Northampton had the new Cyberverse line but did not see Megs or Shockwave.

Wondered who my local competition in the Grosvenor centre was.

Smyths Colchester have no less than 10 Dreadwinds but no other limbs.

They are doing a £5 off when you spend £20 so tempted to get Starscream at £18.99

So far there's is no Megatron toy in that class for this line. Any Megatron you might've have seen has been for a different size class
