This one doesn't do anything for me. Not sure why.

Smyths had a fair amount of the Netflix deluxes in (besides bee). Asda home had cyber verse repugnus - not sure on the price.
And tk max had this.. At £8 more plastic for the buck than a hasbro voyager (that it will probably break or kill ya is just the sugar on top).

Smyths now has all of wave 2 of kingdom listed on their website arriving march 1st. And, if anyone was worried that Smyths wouldn't stock the core figures then worry no more as they have listings for all of the wave 2 core figures (wave 1 is yet to make a website appearance but they do have internal listings for them). The link provided will bring you to the wave 2 stuff due to the inconsistent nature of Smyths' website listings but just searching for 'war for Cybertron' will bring up everything currently available/coming soon.

I finally managed to visit the newly opened Smyths store in Carlisle today, they had a decent amount of Earthrise product, nothing from wave 2 but a lot from waves 1 and 3, including Fasttrack, Sunstreaker, Megatron and the Quintesson Judge. I bought Hoist, and was nearly tempted to pick up a Judge as well, but eventually decided not to. For other stuff, they had lots of Studio Series Shockwaves and Scavengers, one Skipjack and a handful of Deluxes (I saw Jet Shatter, Topspin and DOTM Soundwave), as well as a lot of Netflix Spoiler Ultra Magnus boxes. Netflix wave 2 was also there but not much of it, only one Elita-1, two Wheeljacks and two Red Alerts. Bumblebee has been pushed back to the end of the month according to the Smyths website.

Newest arrivals at Smyths

News Credits: 11 · by **CyclonusG1** » Sun Jan 03, 2021 2:14 am

The vast majority of wave 1 of kingdom are now in stock at Smyths warehouses for home delivery, this also means that they will be showing up at stores for click and collect in the next few days. (only Megatron and the Optimus repack aren't available, as well as wave 1 core class which aren't listed on the website)

Smyths has core class starscream and Megatron listed on the website so maybe some hopes for a rattrap coming in? Seems odd they wouldnt get the other two figures but maybe not when it looks like Hasbro is letting retailers pick n choose certain figures over others.

Smyths dates for MOTU origins figures is more baffling to me at the mo, with all single figures supposedly coming out a month or months apart from each other and not in waves, plus it looks like grayskull has had a price hike compared to the dollars at £80 vs $70

still it beats the price of the classics but if it wasnt for the figure included I'd be happy to stick with my two £20 200X castles.

Buzzworthy bumblebee and Spike at indemand £23 oooowch, imports be imports I guess

Also potp ricochet £7 bargain, can even paint the unsightly white bits black at that price. Red swoop same price but he's probably outdated by the over size kos and upcoming ss86 figure at some point.

News Credits: 18 · by **blackeyedprime** » Wed Jan 20, 2021 5:17 am

Smyths have got the expensive Xpanse Xmen jet cross over prorder listed at £75 but a gentle reminder that it can still be found for preorder at £66 saving almost a core figure worth of money.

Yep, trying to justify it as two selects deluxes and a selects 4 pack of micros like the spy patrol only gets it to £71 tops for me. Helps a little bit, but it would help even more having the cash to splash on it hahaha. Better than paying out £65+ that scalpers are trying to sell runabout on ebay for

News Credits: 1350 · by **ZeroWolf** » Mon Jan 25, 2021 7:07 am

Scalping prices are getting even more ridiculous. Hasbro UK should have reached out more to make a local supply. Sometimes I wonder what good they are even doing now.

Safe to say I won't be preordering from Zavvi anymore after they have failed on three orders, one of which had an item in stock for months that I preordered day 1 (Prime Breakdown and vehicon) and had seen multiple palces during the duration.

Kinda looks like Hasbros distribution isnt getting any better for this side of the pond

Smyths have fasttrack reduced to £13 (Entertainer now has him instock too but not his wave mates)

Also it seems like only Leicester smyths have a few instock, Grapple at £15

by **ThunderThruster** » Thu Feb 04, 2021 8:15 am

Is that Fasttrack listing on the website?

yep Smyths

and yep Entertainer (tho when I got the stock notification it was saying not able to add to basket/out of stock but their website aint the best). Think I got trailbreaker and runamuck from them and then had to get fastrack (with netflix Bee) from Smyths during which ever lockdown it was.

So, some updates from the Smyths website (I don't know if there have been any additions to the internal system yet and I won't be able to check until we reopen).
So firstly we have all 3 of the core class wave 1 bots finally listed:
Optimus:
https://www.smythstoys.com/uk/en-gb/toy ... e/p/194802
Vertebreak:
https://www.smythstoys.com/uk/en-gb/toy ... e/p/194803
Rattrap:
https://www.smythstoys.com/uk/en-gb/toy ... e/p/194804
And finally the Studio Series 86 voyager figures:
Hot Rod:
https://www.smythstoys.com/uk/en-gb/toy ... e/p/194807
Scourge:
https://www.smythstoys.com/uk/en-gb/toy ... e/p/194808
All 5 are currently listed to arrive March 1st whilst the SS86 Deluxes are listed to come in February 15-22 (hopefully they don't get pushed back again). I don't know about SS86 Grimlock unfortunately, last time I checked, he wasn't listed internally so we may not be stocking him but as always I will keep an eye out.

If anyone missed him the first time (or a few months after when he was at a bargain price) Kapows got TR Leader Sky Shadow in £47, shame it never got reused as Thunderwing

My fave use of the mold in all fairness and is a fair bit taller than recent leaders. One of the mold uses is sitting on a shelf he cant fit in standing up, whilst siege magnus fits in with at least an inch to spare.

In Demand Toys and Kapow have announced today that they're FINALLY getting their stock of Kingdom Megatron in this week, so fingers crossed my pre-order will get to me at the begining of next week. In Demand Toys are also getting stock of Deep Cover and Ectotron this week, while Kapow are getting the Studio Series 1986 range.

According to the delivery updates at Smyths, the SS86 Deluxes and the wave 1 Kingdom core class figures will be showing up at stores on their next delivery. My store are getting 8 of each so, presumably one dedicated box per character for the SS86 figures. This is probably going to be similar numbers to other medium/large Smyths stores so unless you only have a small store locally, there should be plenty of stock. The website has yet to be updated but expect them to be available before the earliest listed date of the 23rd.
