Thanks to Seibertronian Bounti76 we have news that the Robots in Disguise Wave 2 Warriors have reached America! Bounti76 purchased Blurr and saw Soundwave and Windblade at the Walmart in Centerville, Utah last night. Skywarp had already warped away before the sighting. With this news that the figures are hitting retail, head on out to your local Walmarts and other toy stores and start hunting! And if you need a little help deciding on whether or not to pick up Blurr and Soundwave in particular, check out our pictorial review!

Happy Hunting!

Same, I found part of the wave at Toys R Us 2 days ago and the whole wave at Target. Only really wanted Soundwave since I was buying a bunch of Lego Star Wars stuff too, but I got to pick between two and one had a much better paint job than the other.

And a reminder from the Texas Sightings Thread:

Sadly, no Bludgeon yet, have to wait a wave.


I'm gonna wait for the battlemask Windblade to be redecoed.

Could have sworn they weee spotted in the US before. I grabbed Blurr from a ToysRUs and didn't think much of it other than, "no shipping!" :lol:

To be fair, that was on a local sightings thread;I hadn't seen it reported as front page news, so I sent an email with the picture to news at seibertron.com in addition to reporting it on my local thread and noting it in the Toy Sightings thing at the bottom of the main page.

I think he's/they are going to show up this week by the looks of the UK stores putting listings up for them with coming soon - I was hoping for a Activator Combiner Sideswipe too - I think the smarter thing to do would have been to offer a revision case instead of these single character editions - they make finding things kinda tricky and make things hang around way to long.

So I feel pairing Sideswipe and Soundwave Activator Combiners would have made better sense for a market like Europe.

Likewise the Optimus & Luna Strongarm would have been better released with Skyhammer.

I'm rather irritated by the missing Warrior Wave with Bisk & Ratchet
& Scatterspike in it - as well as how hard it is to get Legion Blurr and Legion Bisk too.

But the rumour is a lot of stuff is due to land on or around the 24th April. (Strange date) I'd think they'd want them out for Easter Saturday or Monday or before Good Friday even.

--

But on a positive note for those lamenting how small Megatronus was Wei Jiang is doing a overscale version of the Warrior Class soon :

http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/attachmen ... .27706401/

(Behind the Combiner Wars stuff) A nice complement to the existing RID overscale Grimlock and Optimus too).

They usually get made in Plastic and part Metal versions too.

I hope they make Bludgeon too and that he's not all on his own - as Thunderhoof, Scatterspike or Quillfire would be great bigger too - Heck even Windblade might be nice in a bigger scale too !

All the crash combiners are available now. I got PrimeStrong and SkyHammer, with BeeSides on the way. FYI, anybody else not getting updates to this thread?

Oh I've seen them available. but with virtually no word on Skyhammer online or in the US, it was surprising to randomly google and find him. He arrives tomorrow

That's not how you use FYI. You mean BTW. :-P

But yeah, I gave up on the email notifications a long time ago. Much easier to just come to the forum and click on the buttons to see the latest posts. There's two ways to do this: 1) on the main forum next to the title of the topic there's a little orange box that will take you right to the first unviewed post. 2) Within the topic there's a button next to the page count that'll do the same thing.

Subscriptions tend to fall off sometimes. It happens to all of us. I've inquired as to why, and there has been no clear cut answer. I've found the easiest way to reactivate a preexisting subscription is to simply visit the thread. You don't even have to post.

Might become the next minicon wave 1 and 2.

But I honestly recommend them. I have Primestrong and Skyhammer arrives tomorrow. Primestrong is really fun and Skyhammer looks boss

I thought that Canadian and US dollars were of similar value.

But even for 15$ I think most people would choose a deluxe or something from one of the other lines.

If you guys are still looking for Mini-Cons, here's a steal for ya. Thing is, it's from Five Below.

Five Below is selling the first Mini-Con 4-pack consisting of:

  • Blizzard Strike Swelter
  • Scorch Strike Beastbox
  • Blizzard Strike Backtrack
  • Scorch Striek Undertone

... for the low price of $5!

These were found at Preston Village in Frisco, TX, just off TX121/Sam Rayburn Tollway and Preston Road, and they had plenty in stock. Shame they only had one particular 4-pack, wish they had the second one too.

And yes, I did get one ;)

The second 2017 wave of Robots in Disguise warrior figures (or wave 11 for those keeping track) was found in Canada this Easter week-end. This is the wave that includes Soundwave, Blurr, Skywarp as well as a redeco of Windblade with a new face, and a reissue of Grimlock for good measure. They were found at Toysrus in St Bruno, Quebec, but cybertron.ca member innermanchild. These have already found their way to the states but it's nice to see not a lot of time in between sightings between these two neighboring nations.
