While Toysrus Canada has had the Platinum Planet of Junk set available for a while now, the set had yet to come to the US. It was only available as an Asian import with the high cost accompanying it (i.e. 120$). Thanks to fellow Seibertronian AZT, we now know that Target, the exclusive US retailer for this Platinum set, finally has this in stock. So if anyone has been interested in this set, it is finally available online for the more affordable price of $74.99 USD. For those unaware, this set is made up of:

Wreck-Gar as a redeco of Reveal the Shield Wreck-Gar
Autobot Hot Rod (NOT "Rodimus") as a redeco of Classics Rodimus
Junkion Scrapheap as a redeco of e-HOBBY United Scrapheap

My minions inform me that CW voyager Onslaught is now available through HasbroToyShop. They also have a promo code for free shipping (APRILSHIP). If you still can't find this boffo remold in stores, nows your chance to get it for a good price online. HTS gets there slow, but they get there....

Fellow Seibertronian Kurthy sent us some great news for all US fans. While Canadians have been enjoying their latest Warrior Robots in Disguise figures, this latest wave which includes Quillfire and Thunderhoof has yet to be found in the states. Or even available online, until now. Hasbro Toy Shop has the latest wave, broken down below, along with Combiner Wars Wreckgar.

For Thunderhoof and Quillfire, it does say this is the Mini-Cons Weaponizers Version of the molds. Is there any difference from the standard Warrior Class?

Comment by DeathReviews Apr 20, 2016

They've also posted CW Onslaught at HTS - noted by me a few days ago. But hey, who listens to Death, right?

transformers-toys-now-available-online-t104484s25.php

Just by way of clarity, which forum should online stocking and sightings be posted? In this one, or in the online sightings/available one? They're both kind of the same. Should one be consolidated into the other to avoid confusion...?

Thee is no difference, its just a subline which reminds people that these guys have fists which can hold 5mm weapons, which is what the minicon weapons turn into.

It just means "and remember kids, hey can also hold weapons in their hands... each sold seperately" :lol:

I dont know which other one you are reffering to. Is another thread being used recently for the same purpose? Give me a link and I will check it out.

Dammit, I was holding onto the hope that I could wait to order the guys till next week when I got my paycheck, but at this rate, I don't know if I can wait. How long is that free shipping offer lasting? :MAXIMAL:

Looking back through that thread, it looks like someone asked you to 'retire' that thread a while ago. So maybe it ain't the place for post in'.

I've been posting online sightings there, including Wreck-Gar, which turned up last Saturday, and Onslaught, who was there last Friday (and still is)... Still no sign of Sky Lynx

I have merged and moved all of this into the Sightings section. No idea why we still had it in Toys. :-?

I'll go update news stories now.

Interesting, I look on there every couple days, sometimes once daily, but last night was the first time I saw Wreckgar. I didn't post about Onslaught since my local stores have three or four each.

I checked either last Friday or Saturday and spotted Onslaught. I know he's turning up in stores now (finally), but for the benefit of those who still can't find him... HTS with free shipping is still as decent a bargain as you might find. And better than Amazon, probably... As to Wreck-gar, I'm sure it was either Sunday or Monday that my minions spotted him on HTS. They check the numbers of CW figures. One day it was 36 - then 37. So they wondered, what's the 37th one?

44 including shipping is too much, but I can't miss the chance.

Is anyone here from Mexico who has seen CW Sky Lynx in stores?

Continuing their game of availability whack-a-mole, HTS put the Devastator box set back up for a day or so, but took it down again soon thereafter...
