And Deadput, they ship to canada too, so you could get it for yourself on HTS when it shows up after the show: https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/webapp/wc ... n%2Fhtsusa

I know Hasbro toy shop carries exclusives after the event but would any other place sale him like BBTS? (Kinda expensive for Canadians I know but I'll put him in the "pile of loot" to save on shipping until I'm ready for him)
No, only HTS, but they ship to Canada too so you are ok

These are only the initial images, of course, expect the full Seibertron.com treatment as the event continues across the weekend, with the Hasbro Breakfast Press event Thursday morning, panel coverage on Friday and Saturday, and follow-ups with official images and more!

We have included a few pictures below but there are always more in the Seiberton gallery, incuding for Voyager Optimus Prime and Primitive Skate Prime!

Except Star Wars, those will be up on Force Friday. Keep in mind a lot of these SDCC sets are supposed to be available at HasCon, so if you don't get something tomorrow you might get a second chance

Still haven't seen the SDCC Exclusives up yet on Hasbro's website, unless they sold out just that quickly.

11 AM - 2 PM is the historical sweet spot. Only 2013 was a strange case where they didn't hit until much later in the day (~3:30 PM)
Posted by william-james88 on August 14th, 2017 @ 8:57am CDT
You can see detailed images of the Transformers centric exclusives here and you can click on the image below to be brought right to the page to order (once they are up).
Good luck to you all!

Ditto on the still waiting. Is HTS usually so late in actually making things available on the day they say they will be?

Refresh my memory, just a reminder, the SW figures won't be going up until force Friday in September
Posted by ScottyP on August 14th, 2017 @ 10:29am CDT
I wouldn't call it "late" for them yet. Next half hour to 45 minutes is a good time to watch (just going off previous years, I have no secret info)Kyleor wrote:chuckdawg1999 wrote:Still waiting here. At least I got the grill going

Click on the product links in the news story which should take you to the page that has all the exclusives and you should be able to add it to your cart. Had the same problem myself

What kills me is if you just go to the main page you can still add them to your cart

You should get a message that says there is not enough stock when you try to add them to your cart

Seriously. Was there some reason they waited until the middle of the day to make these available?

Everything went up at 2pm ET. I got my Primitive Prime ordered within the first ten minutes. After about the first 15 minutes, it sold out.Relic0037 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Hasbro only just now sent out an email officially announcing the availability of the SDCC exclusives on HTS, 35 minutes after they went up and about ten minutes after some of them have already sold out.

Going off the chatter on TFW, I think about 5 to 10 minutes. A lot of people had the item page on refresh and the "add" button wasn't available right away. That may have added to the delay. Interesting that TLK OP is still available. I hope that becomes available at a discount later on.
Posted by Emerje on August 14th, 2017 @ 2:46pm CDT
Selling out in 20 minutes is pretty common for SDCC exclusives. I still don't understand why they don't make the HTS exclusive pre-order "made to order" like Japanese stores do it (including Takara Tomy Mall's Legends Black Convoy and the Legends reissues). It isn't like these are solely SDCC exclusives, they're SDCC and HTS joint exclusives. This isn't just leftovers from SDCC, some of these sold out there, these are an allotment set aside for sale specifically for HTS (mixed with leftovers). Instead of setting any aside only sell the leftovers on HTS for people that want a chance at getting them now and open pre-orders for people that can wait. Why intentionally make us anxious like this refreshing the page all day?
Oh well, I've been complaining about this since the first day they started offering these and the only thing that's changed is the site doesn't crash anymore. I think in all these years I've only been successful two years in getting what I want. It's still the same complaints of things selling out in minutes and things being sold out of people's cart after completing checkout. Hasbro doesn't care about individual experiences when everything sells in the end.
Movie Prime is still available, but after not getting Primitive Prime and finding out the free shipping on $49 and over doesn't apply to exclusives (seriously, why do you have to be that way, Hasbro?) I wasn't willing to pay $60 for it.

So people now have to spend money on travel and a hotel to attend a show and then upurchase a 50$ toy? Buy it for double on e-bay would be much much cheaper.

Ah, i see, makes more sense.
And as for the stormtrooper, it was 2 years ago and was for the upcoming Episode 7 film. Everyone wanted one and there were storries on bleeding cool of people tripping eachother over it and it being chaos at SDCC. You were waiting for HTS but the second it was live that toy was sold out.
