Yo! Check out that totally G1 Bumble Bee reissue packaging behind P/CP. Those Walmart exclusive reissues had totally slipped my mind.

You know, between the latest reveals for the "War for Cybertron: SIEGE" series and these exclusives for the end of the "Power of the Primes" series coming soon, I'm getting that feeling again. That "It's GREAT to be a Transformers fan" feeling! Last time I felt like this, we were in the peak of "Titans Return." Things took a little bit of a dip with Power of the Primes at first, but I feel like we're back on track now.

That is the funniest thing I heard all day! I feel sorry for everyone with the preorder and stock issues though.

POTP Starscream arrived today and, well. . . It’s something. I’d say he’s worth the $9 though. The robot mode is at least ok and the combiner torso is actually really cool. The jet mode, however, may be the single lowest effort thing I’ve seen from Transformers. Like, the Cyberverse stuff puts this to shame. But like I said, for $9 he’ll be a cool torso if we get some seeker limbs. And he does scale nicely with TR Megatron (who ironically has a much better jet mode).

Long story short:
“Ha! I was right all along. It was a Gobstopper, and it is Tutti-Frutti!”

I always thought this character was the perfect one for a couple of rubsigns...

Thanks for reminding me to buy rubsigns to put on my Punch/Counterpunch: it's going to look much better that way.

I'm not 100% sure but I think there might be some mechanism built in to let the two insignia fold away from sight in each robot mode.

You guys realize the symbols on P/CP are on little doors that flip over to hide them, right.

Although G1 Counterpunch did have his rub symbol on a door as well so maybe that's more authentic that way.

I think there is too. We'll find out soon enough

Hmmm, looks like HTS took the Throne of Primes Listing down. I can't find it with a search anymore and using a link from a google search turns up a pretty much blank page.

While there is a lot of excitement for what is coming after Transformers Power of the Primes, some fans are still in need of the wave 2 deluxes. Hasbro had said that they would rectify the situation and not only did those appear on Hasbro Toy Shop, but the wave 2 toys are reappearing at brick and mortar retail as well. The entire wave was found by Scotty P in a North Carolina Walmart.

This wave includes Blackwing, Snarl, Sludge, Moonracer and Rippersnapper.

Can confirm, one case in tje Meijer in Camby, IN

News Credits: 55 · by **o.supreme** » Fri Jul 20, 2018 2:15 pm

Yeah I reported here and in the sightings last week at a local Target new PotP deluxe wave 2 and studio series 12 & 13.

News Credits: 48 · by **Nemesis Primal** » Fri Jul 20, 2018 3:30 pm

I was just at my local Walmart looking for Cutthroat and Blot, as they got wave 3 Deluxes a few weeks ago but that half of the wave that I actually want sold out before I found that out. I asked someone working there when they were getting more Deluxes in stock, and they said they would be getting more in on the 24th.

So now after reading this, I'm paranoid that knowing my luck, they'll get wave 2 Deluxes I don't need in instead, great. :BANG_HEAD:

Glad to see Hasbro is restocking wave 2. I truly appreciate it when they listen and act on the concerns of fans and collectors. ;)^

I'm glad to hear about the wave 2 restock, I still need Sludge and Snarl.

What about Hun-Gurr and Elita 1? Those two never made it anywhere near here. :BANG_HEAD:

Meanwhile my local Walmart is overflowing with Hun-Gurrr and Elita-1, they just stuck five more unopened cases on the top shelf overflow space along with the six cases worth of figure still waiting to be sold. Also sitting on five cases worth of SS Voyagers wave 1 (three opened, two not). Not likely I'll be seeing Inferno any time soon.

Right now the only thing from wave 2 that I really want is the Prime Masters. At this rate I'll have all of the exclusive PMs before the retail versions.
