I don't really want anything from this wave, so I can just save my money until Steelbane and Scorn come out.D-Maximus_Prime wrote:At least there are only 2 figures from this wave I want.

The street date for these toys is April 24th and it was clearly not respected. Navy Exchange is a retail store run by the Navy for their people and they had the voyagers (Prime), deluxes (Barricade, Bumblebee and co), legions and turbo changers, according to other users who confirmed the finding. The leaders are not part of the first wave and are due to come out later, so they were not there

Bingo.
And I don't know about legions either, but I feel those are one of those RiD wave 3 and beyond minicon things where I never see them and I have to work extremely hard just to find them

Should be Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Grimlock and Barricade, or C1326 through C1329. In other words, the redeco wave.

I wonder if the Uk supermarkets get that less than great redeco wave in and it fails to sell due to high prices and repeated moulds they won't get the later moulds that are actually likeable stuff - like the Dragons.

In other words the wave that will probably clog up shelves and prevent the good waves from being stocked. But I could be wrong.
This wave of TLK is definitely the least exciting so far. Barricade and Voyager Prime are still wait and see for me.

Same here, since its so repaint heavy. And not even repaints of cool toys that some of us never got but instead repaints of toys we just got in the last film line (most of which already got repainted). I am gonna wait a good while for that voyager Prime. Hasbro has a habit of milking their voyager primes with redecos until the utters bleed, so since this toy is in serious need of a better deco I am gonna wait to see how else it will be released (either as a boxset or retail exclusive redeco).

Just a thought, maybe due to their close relationship with Michael Bay, Hasbro allowed military stores to break the street date on the figures?

Military stores? What exactly are those? Sorry, never seen one in Australia before.

I don't think Hasbro is into giving preferential treatment.

I'm from that opinion as well. I have enough of Optimusses. Even if that voyager Prime look fantastic, I'll wait for some deco that is more unique. The only one I may buy early is Barricade.
The one I'm awaiting the most though is voyager Megatron. To complete my Hasbro voyager Megs quintet.

I just want it now. Any superior deco is likely gonna cost too much for me (especially if in a box set) and I can customise this one enough to get it the way I want (and am sure there will be Reprolabels for any additonal details too tricky to paint like more flames and such). I haven't owned a version of movie Prime in his 'knight' form as they were usually Leader class figures too expensive for my wallet and too big for my collection scale. I am excited.

Not looking forward to this at all, not because i dont like the movies but because having a 3rd transformer line out in the market is going to make it extremely difficult to find anything. This might have worked years ago when transformers hand almost an entire isle but now that its relegated to a few pegs this is going to complicate things. If a store is overstocked with movie stuff they are not going to order rid or tr stuff cause as far as theyre concerned they have transformers. Hasbro really needs to get back to one line replacing another or just merging it all together into one single line.

I know I'm in the minority here, but I think that Voyager Prime looks great, mould wise. And this is coming from someone who doesn't even like this design for Optimus. I much prefer his Movie 1-Dotm Form.

in Cambridge Toys R Us the Transformers section in it's aisle has halved with the space being used for more Star Wars and Marvel figures and the TFs they do have there are mostly RID with a few Titans. I can't wait for TLK stuff to start appearing so I actually have a reason to make the long bus ride there and not be disappointed and empty handed when I go home.
I'm hoping that with the TLK toys that TF section will reclaim it's lost territory and fight all that damn Disney owned stuff.

I can understand wholeheartly. Voyager is a nice format and is it just me or the leader's biggest flaw, the huge backpack, have been fixed for the voyager version?
