Titans Return Wave 3 Titan Masters Found at US Retail

Now for a few pictures of Ptero!

Oooooh, I do love a pterodactyl crossbow!

Pictures of Overboard, with comparisons to Crashbash and Clobber.

I found all of Wave 3 Titan Masters sans Fangry at my local Target here in Wilmington, NC too. Wanted to get at least Sawback/Lione, but funds will be tight until Friday...

Awesome! I hope you can get Sawback, he's my favorite of the wave 3 Titanmasters. He's very fun and just all around cool. Even though his jet mode is really dumb. I quite like having a lion that turns into a shield. I still can't get over the jet mode, though....

For those of you still looking for a good deal on the 2016 releases for Titans Return, we have a few more options for you.

Thanks to several users and anonymous tips, we can tell you that Titans Return Leader Soundwave is now up at Hasbro Toy Shop for $44.99. You can find him HERE and you can use the current CYBER2016 coupon code to get him for 25% off!

The other big set of news is that HTS must really want rid of its Fortress Maximus stock, as he is now on sale for $74.99, half price! Now, we must tell you that this deal is in flux, such as when the G2 combiner sets went on sale and came in and out of stock at very rapid rates, so keep a sharp eye tuned to the store and you can get yourself or someone you love an awesome Titanic-sized present! You can find Fort Max HERE!!

ALWAYS between my paydays! Anyone want to get it for me and hold it until next Friday? PLEASE??????

Why not get a credit card?

Fort Max out of stock.

I just had For Max in the cart and was just about to get him and then blam their all out in a matter of seconds.


Why are figures so darn expensive does no one get that more people are willing to buy stuff when it doesn't cost one their darn grocery's and other necessities?

I'm sure plenty of people bought it at the retail price. Some people are impatient. Others don't want to take the risk of these things going out of stock and then having to pay inflated after market prices.

Then there's us... the bargain hunters.

Still $100 at TFsource and maybe Amazon?

It does make me wonder. Was there that many Fort Max's still in stock that these stores were desperate to unload?

Go git 'em fellas!

Well, Soundwave at least is already 'out of stock' on HTS. Still, it is wise to check periodically. HTS has a weird habit of putting an item up, and the item is immediately out of stock. And only after a day or so does it ACTUALLY become available.

I almost bought Soundwave last night, but before he came in stock I spent $200 on myself and Christmas presents. and then he's gone

Probably more a space issue - need to make room for new product.

Why would you get it from the states if you are in canada? Do you have a buddy it would ship to what you go visit regularly by car? Because if not then it would not been a deal at all. Shipping to Canada would have been an easy $50-70 USD, making the product the same as if you bought it from amazon.ca yesterday: http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/ ... ada/36818/

It's the shipping that's murder!

Because it's expensive to manufacture in terms of both materials and labor, and as a large item it costs a lot to ship to the warehouse, and every step along the way from the factory to your house requires someone to get paid. So an item that costs ~$40 in materials ends up with a retail price of $150 to cover all those costs. When they sell it at $75, they're barely scraping a profit from it, or maybe they're even selling it at a loss (relative to how much it costs them to stock) to clear space.

Ordered mine yesterday and got it in today.

Pays to be patient though I doubt I'll be all that patient with Trypticon if he's done right. Ft Maxx and Metroplex I waited till they were on sale. But Tryp he'll likely be a day one pre-order.

Absolutely no friggin' clue what gimmick that could be though. Then again, not like the name Titans Return would immediately make you think Headmasters.

From the Machinima Combiner Wars thread, since we got news on two more Prime Wars machinima instalments.

ooh high chance i will be able to get the other titan for christmas this year

Guess i wont be getting apeface then, hasbro better be shipping out a metric ton of wave 3 to make up for their stupidity on wave 2. Not to mention its christmas shopping time and its going to be even harder to find stuff.

All my stores only had wave 1 stuff. I have yet to see wave 2 stuff in the wild, and the stuff that the stores had in the back to restock... was all wave 1.

Argh

This is really odd to me. How one area of the states could be completely ignored. In canada, everything is pretty much equal. The warehouse gets a shipment, it is divided up in weighted averages to stores across the country and sends it out. Specific areas or stores are rarely ignored.

Pretty big weighted average

Hasbro evidently shipped out ALL of their wave 2 stock, so the problem lies not with them. And Apeface has been readily available in my area for a few weeks now. Where do you live? Have you checked your sightings forum?

Thanks for telling me about the shipping.


My previous comment was just me upset and tired in the early morning for not picking him up.

With wave 3 hitting US retail, we are realizing that this is happening before Titans Return Soundwave, who is from wave 2, has been found at any brick and mortar retail store. What is odd is that we know he has hit US retail since he is readily available on Amazon.com (ship and sold by Amazon) for 44.80. So, just in case some of you were looking for this toy and thinking he had not hit retail yet, you can get him on Amazon.

I couldnt resist. I like Megs too much.

Too early for a "Power of the Primes" product thread?

We're not even half-way through Titans Return. Anywhere between Summer and Winter of next year should be fine.

But you can get him Prime with free shipping whereas BBTS you have to pay for shipping. Store is luck-based.

yeah but people were saying they wanted him and havent seen him anywhere, so this was more of a reminder. its retail price so anyone willing to pay the retail price could get him right now with amazon.

im poor and dont have prime

This Leader class Soundwave is a pass (the cassettes to). FOC's Voyager version is still my go to Soundwave with Classics G1 reissue as my second.

The OP that turns into a flying Pringle's can is a pass but I'm still hopeful for Octane and the Takara version of the new Meg's is a possibility "IF" his paint job is more G1 accurate and no cheap @ss stickers. Blitzwing isn't that much of a priority since the Thrilling 30's version still fits the bill.

I'll just throw out my wild Power of the Primes prediction:

13 Primes? Maybe. But I'm half-expecting some kind of updated Cyber-Key functionality where you can plug a Matrix into different characters and Matrix "upgrades" for more characters.

Bumblebee had a couple of later identities alluded to in Devastation. Maybe he gets the "Matrix of Speed" and becomes Race Welder.

Rodimus could be up for a new Rodimus Prime.

But my guess is that the new gimmick is that a ton of other Matrices are discovered and almost everybody gets a Matrix and becomes a Prime.

I think I saw Soundwave last time I was at Target but I can't be sure. If he's still there next time I'll snap a picture. Speaking of which, Target is actually becoming reliable again for Generations with TR(after sitting on Wave 4 of CW for several months). As far as I know it's the only place around here that stocks every mainline class.

Many of us are fairly certain Takara will not be releasing Blitzwing as Megatron just like they did not release Astrotrain as Sentinel Prime. Some of us are completely certain Takara will not be releasing Blitzwing as Megatron. Takara just doesn't do that. They don't need to because they don't have standard pricing like Hasbro does so they don't need to release multiple versions of the same mold. Your best bet will be Reprolabels releasing a sticker set to correct Hasbro's sticker issues.
