And the "W" stands for "WHERE" as in where the F are they? I know that they are on Hasbrotoyshop, and all over eBay from Singapore or China for 20 bucks shipping, but why the hell are they not in stores? I thought that they were due out in April, but not a single retail sighting at all, to my knowledge. No one has listed a sighting in the sighting sections for them.


Grrr :-x

End Rant.

I've been waiting ages for The Fallen and G1 Magnus to show up but my TRU is still clogged with Diaperwave and Starscream. :sad:

They could've been delayed to ship along with the movie figures.

I have not seen them at a retail store anywhere either. I went with BBTS. Get the Fallen whenver you get the chance! He is menacing looking and my favorite Titanium.

I thought the same thing about them being held back to wait until the movie line hits. It gives time for all of the Spider-Man and Shrek toys to get off of the shelves.

More likely it's some dumb store manager that is holding back any and all Transformers until the release date, instead of digging through and figuring out which ones can and can't be sold yet.




Disclaimer: Not all store managers and employee's are dumb, just the ones that piss me off are. :P

I got WWI Megatron online, but have no idea where to find G1 Magnus. I hope it is just waiting for the movie line to be released and not that there were only 7 made and now their sold out.

I feel your pain.

I still look for him every other day...yet nothing. RID Prime and purple floppy limbs Megatron are abundant as dirt and hookers in Las Vegas, though.

I want G1 UM, WW Megatron and perhaps Sunstorm...luck would have it they only made 7 of Sunstorm...probably.

Then I have one of the 7 :)

I pre-order all 6" Titanium's from BBTS. The mark up isn't that bad and I keep them in my pile of loot so shipping isn't that bad either.

It beats having to wait months to get them or never finding them retail at all.

I also get my Titaniums online becuase I've never found a store in Chicago that has them. Only ones I found at a store were the first crappy wave with Prime and awful, awful Megatron.

I also have Sunstorm. :D

The WW seeker design is awesome, very satsifying to transform, diecast in all the right places, and very poseable.

Too bad I have to kill Starscream. And Ultra Magnus.

I just have to find Magnus first. If ever.

If I can't find him in a few more weeks, I will take the plunge and just buy him online for up to $30...yes, I am stupid, and yes, I want him that badly.

The timing just sucks right now.

Well I don't know your problem. The TFs just came back to Germany a few months ago and wer only having the resent ones excluding Classics. :-x :-x

But we've got titanum Magnus and WW Megatron! And thery are both at my home :)
Magnus isn't that grate you just have to hate his arms!
The color is to light but overalvery nice.

Megs is just awsam, his alt may be just him lining on his back but he's got this nice clasic paintaps, nice and hevy, badass guns, but his head is made of rubber just like his guns exept his shulder black and red one his arms are kinda puny but I still like him a loot more than that crappy Soundwave. Megatron is very cool he may not be very posable but he looks realy badass. 8)

PS Alt ravige is a regular relase in Germany.

But no classics means nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Thanks for the company, says misery.

I figured that they were on BBTS and a few other online stores, but for me, like many of you out there in TF land, it's the thrill of the hunt. BBTS is like shooting fish in a barrel for me.

Well, yeah, but shooting fish in a barrel means that you definately get a fish.

Yeah G1 Magnus is a mystery to me, he just kind of popped up on BBTS and then sold out right away. I lucked out and got him through hasbrotoyshop. I have yet to see him anywhere retail, and I've been checking a lot lately.
