Just checked my local Target, and I can confirm that the Wave 3 Titan Masters are starting to spread across Australia. My Target has also just stocked, and I counted, 40 Leader Skywarps. I never even saw those stocked when they were new, and now they've flooded the place and are all immediately 40% off - so, um, hooray?
Wave 3 TMs (at least, the three new molds that I got) are pretty fabulous, I gotta say. Ptero's and Sawback's "vehicle" modes are pretty doofy, but in a charming way (though Sawback's instructions, if followed exactly, leave one with an even stupider vehicle that has lion legs just straight-up sticking upward off the back). Fangry's dragon mode, meanwhile, is fantastic except for the handle sticking out its neck and difficulties actually getting the Master to sit in properly.
All three have pretty great 'combined' modes, with Sawback's TM integration standing out as particularly great to me (that mane though!). It's also fun to play around with Fangry's 'Krangry' configuration, but sadly the TM doesn't lock in as solidly that way around.
Weapon modes are overall fairly decent: Ptero's longbow is a bit weird, especially the way it connects, but is still somehow fairly convincing; Fangry makes a good gun but I'm sad the barrel isn't a bit wider - as it is, it's just shy of a 5mm port; and Sawback is a fantastic shield actually.
As a last note, I'll also cast my support toward the A3/Sawback partnering. They make a great pair thematically and visually (those colors go together way better than I thought they would!), and the shield works really well for A3's robot mode. Sawback's head-mode face is even big enough that he looks fine on the Voyager body - in theory. In practice, the thin yellow face robs A3 of a lot of his intimidation factor, turning him from a fearsome Viking into Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III wearing his dad's clothes.

if you look at this then compare it to sky shadow the jet turbine intakes are different hence I do believe that image that was at botcon was overlord not sky shadow
