lets see how long till sold out. also 4 pack legends is back.

For future reference, proper etiquette is to post a link with your web finds. Good intel, though.

HERE

I got a Wheeljack and even a Kup! I've been waiting for Kup for a long time. Sure they don't ship til May but at least they're coming! Wanted a few more guys but they didn't have them or I just coudn't afford them too. Can't remember. lol.

If you haven't procured or fear not being able to find Generations Wheeljack and Thundercracker at retail HasbroToyShop can help! They now have preorders listed for these guys, scheduled to ship on or around May 9th.

Shouldnt they start appearing in local stores ??? Even after the RTS screwjob, I just cant see ordering online for Hasbro stuff. It freaking crazy when you cant find figures in a big city like Miami...

The"screw job" also comes from how department managers view action figures. They think of them like any other toy, like a baseball bat. The better ones actually view certain toys like produce, and realize that after a while some go bad, and stay on the shelf, and need to be replaced with new ones. The problem arises from the first view and they over order a big shipment late in the year to gear up for the holidays and not make any significant orders after that, just restocking the same ones over and over again, until Hasbro forces one on them or a movie comes out.

Personally, I'd given up on some of my local and/or surrounding area's retail stores to get anything in. Either nothing's being ordered or they just can't get the merchandise in. My local Wal-Mart got in a special cardboard display (so much for going green) that featured the DOTM Cyberverse Preview Optimus Prime w/3D glasses and Generations figures. I happened to mention to the toy manager that they could really use those Generations figures on the Transformers aisle, since the pegs had been empty for a couple of months now. She said they had to feature them on an endcap to promote the movie toys, which wouldn't be coming out for yet another month or so. So not only are the retail stores not able to get any in, when they do they lack the commonsense to put them where they should go.

Anyway, I've been getting all my latest Generations and RTS finds from http://www.hasbrotoyshop.com as I can't depend on my local stores to get anything in. Sure, I might have to pay for shipping, but it sure beats burning up my gas (as it closes in on $4.00 a gallon) going from store to store and coming up empty handed.

BTW, I got my order in for Thundercracker and Wheeljack at http://www.hasbrotoyshop.com. Now I'm just waiting for RTS Scouts Chopsaw and Windcharger, RTS Legends Prowl and Trailcutter, and RTS Deluxe Rumble, Frenzy, and Warpath to get "in stock" so I can order them.

and most of the time at HTS they are running a coupon that negates the cost of shipping.

BTW, Wheeljack is awesome.

I pre ordered Wheeljack, Thundercracker, and Scourge. I can't waite to get them. Hey does anyone know of a online store that sells large display cases?

Any coupon codes for these?

Ok, strike one. How about HTS10 or 003255

I've got my Wheeljack pre-ordered along w/ Scourge. Still waiting on Grapple, Windcharger, and Wreck-Gar to be released.

BBTS just received their restock of Wheeljacks, mine is now safely in my pile of loot.

I think SPRING20 is working. It was not too long ago when I ordered Grappel.

Well im going to TFcon and apparently Canada and Europe have a better TF market so im gonna try to get Grapple and Windcharger multiple hopefully

I'm very happy I saw Seibertron's post about this on Facebook! My girlfriend and I each ordered two Thundercrackers. Wheeljack was already sold out, so I added Generations Cybertronian Optimus Prime to my order. I figured he'd go well with Cybertronian Megatron. I couldn't get any of the discount codes to work, but even with shipping, each figure averages to $16.14. Not bad at all! Thanks again, Seibertron!

they have been there for weeks. and wheeljack has been sold out for just as long.

Aaaaaaand Wheeljack is out of stock again.

That didn't last very long, did it?

Really psyched for Wheeljack! Thundercracker, however, is a maybe. It depends if I have the cash to get him if I see him.

Thundercracker, Wheeljack and Windcharger are already out of stock. Whoosh!

rts & gen \n?
May be speculating but, presales usually last longer than this on HTS... we're talking stuff that won't ship until May, correct? Warpath is gonna might end up like Energon UM.
