I picked up the only Perceptor I found back when the wave first hit stores but I had to return it because I could not get any of my other Titan Master heads into the joint at all. Plus I had concerns about the longevity of the microscope arm slider. That thing scares me.
Good to know your joint loosened up. I've been working on Triggerhappy and I do think it will loosen over time so I don't plan to return this one. Without question this is the best jet-former I have. And it transformers very quickly, which surprised me. Well done

But I have one small issue: The head connection joint is very tight on my Triggerhappy. I have found a way to slide the head in on an angle like I do with Hot Rod but there is still more resistance than I would like. I was wondering if anyone else has this minor issue and if it will loosen up in time?
Dude, good call on Triggerhappy. To many (myself included) he is the best design in all of TR.
I haven't had the head issue on my Triggerhappy, but I did have an extremely tight head joint on Perceptor. In fact, the first time I removed the head right out of the package, the TM head actually pulled out of the TM body and stayed in Perceptor's body. The good news there is after a few times of putting the head on and taking it off very carefully, the joint loosened up and is about as tight as the rest of them now.

Are you talking Walgreens/Clones or ToysRUs/Grotusque? (Heart began pounding as I am looking for Grotusque.)
I'm glad the Walgreens exclusives have been available online. I have hope for Grotusque since Arcee is still available on the Toys R Us website, despite going out of stock several times in the past...

Managed to finally snag the remaining clones. I like Wingspan the best of the four. He really improves on the original. It's a shame Cloudraker seems much weaker than his original.

I decided to try some other heads on Triggerhappy that I hadn't tried earlier and I could barely get Megatron's head into the head slot. After careful examination of Triggerhappy, I compared his head slot to Hot Rod's and noticed that Hot Rod has quite a bit of space between the outside of clips and the red body plastic while Triggerhappy has almost no space. Thinking this is a clearance issue I used a hobby knife to shave a little blue (purple?) plastic away along the outside of the slot. The result is I can now insert and remove Triggerhappy's head into and out of the slot without the previous frightening resistance. I still have some difficulty with a few of my other heads, but this seems to have solved the worst of the problem.

In reference to the Clones, my friend.
Although, i am glad to have that link to the Grotusque listing.
At least i have a good reference point for that now.
Hopefully it will prove to be fruitful.

I went to sleep half an hour before the email. But I wouldn't have seen it because it goes to promotions.

Guys, no one was able to order the figure. All that happened was that their system went from "Notify me when available" to " add to cart" mistakenly and that meant that everyone who signed up for an e-mail got an e-mail. But there was never any actual stock in and anyone who tried got a message saying ti was sold out. So TRU glitched and was premature. Sucks but it happens all the time and there is no shame in being premature.

I was just about to say the same thing once nobody appeared able to order it.

That's a relief -- I guess I was expecting it to have sold out in minutes....

If I remember correctly, we went through the same thing with Arcee back earlier this summer. And she is still available on TRU.com. I'm just hoping Grotusque releases in time to take advantage of both the sale and the free shipping...

Hey Folks,
Spoke with a TRU representative via the 800 number listed on the email. According to her, there are 7000 listed as in their warehouse. She was unsure when they will open up the sale of them. I'm figuring once the 20% off sale ends, so most likely Monday as it would generate an extra $35K in sales right of the bat.

We don't always have a clear idea of inventory when it comes to big box retailers so it is always pleasant when we get any kind of clue. Fellow Seibertronian Tranzilla called Toysrus customer service to clear up any confusion there may have been with users receiving e-mails that their exclusive Titans Return Grotusque figure was in stock. They learnt that not only has it not actually been in stock yet on the site, but that they have 7000 in their warehouse. This is great news to all fans waiting anxiously for Grotusque since it shows that as with Arcee, any American fan who wants that figure will be able to get it thanks to such high numbers.
Them being ready in their warehouse and accounted for in their central inventory is also a good sign that they should be available to order soon. Of course, as with Arcee there is no indication that this will be found in stores and will most probably instead be an online exclusive. Here is the listing on Toysrus.com and below is the message Tranzilla wrote informing us of these facts:
