But I ususally wait til they hit retail stores. I have all of wave 1. Waiting on Wave 2 atm.
Sucks that we the Canadians have to wait longer to get this awesome stuff in stores.
Anyone else here from Canada? How long does it usually take for most toys to hit our retail once it hits the States? And have any of you seen the Wave 2's here yet?

Well, Offroad came through on that wish.
Viking style!
Now that I have had a chance to really give these wave 2 guys a good play, I gotta say, they are AWESOME!
Air Raid is kinda old news, but I'm happy to have a full squad of Aerialbots. His jet mode looks great. The stunticon punks are really doin' it for me though. Breakdown is fantastic. Offroad really works for me too. I think Dragstrip is still my fav though. Something about the puffy pirate shirt with it's billowing sleeves, and the bell bottoms. Put a head band on him and I swear he'd be a dead ringer for Jimi Hendrix.
Did everybody get their HTS orders?
Nemy Max, have yours shown up yet?
Pfft, Offroad don't need no shield! That's just putting something between you and THE AXE!
I wouldn't bet on that, but that's what I'll be using the Stunticon limbs for. Galvatronus. It's almost a shame, really, as Cyclonus by himself is a pretty good figure. Maybe I'll get 2 of them. Such is Hasbro's plan. Make us buy more.Bradimus wrote:I have to wonder if the real reason Hasbro retooled Silverbolt into Cyclonus/Galvatronus without providing official Decepticon limbs is because they realized they needed to provide a figure to replace Motormaster as the core of the gestalt.

Got my wave 2's from BBTS today, but I haven't opened them yet (the cat is insisting on lap time instead lol)

Really LOOSE?
No, mine was fine. Maybe yours has been turning tricks?

We received a report that Scattershot will be a heavy retool of Silverbolt, and it's likely Lightspeed will be a retool of Dead End, so that only leaves Nosecone and Afterburner as new molds for Computron. And someone here suggested Nosecone may be a heavy retool of Rook, so maybe we are only looking at one new mold for the Technobots.
Taking that into account, and looking at the Combaticons who may not have a single new mold, just retools and heavy retools, I'd say Hasbro did a great job in designing reusable molds for maximum profitability.
That just blows me away.

If... Afterburner is still a limb... You don't know, as a bike he could be getting the same treatment (but not same mold) as Groove. We could have a "newbie" on every team.

Is Afterburner a bike or a two wheeled armored car? He has a cockpit, so I think we'll get him as a limb, and that very well could mean Takara Defensor will give us our first look at the figure with their initial use as Groove.
