Yep, it's been fairly obvious since the beginning that it wasn't intended to be a Titan master. every time I look at it I shed a single manly tear for what was lost.

At least you don't still need Stunticons limbs

Never did need them actually, decided not to bother with Menasor. I'd be very disappointed in myself if I did still need them though.

Unless you have a pressing need to have Wave 2 right this instant, I'd wait off and get the Combaticons instead. The latter are just gonna be harder to find the more you wait now CW's ended, and Wave 2 TR are only this price right now because they're new and few other places have them. Wait a bit and they'll go down to a more normalized price; wait even longer and they'll be reduced.

Yeah that's my train of thought as well for the most part. I guess Wave 2 will be around for a while. You're right about the prices too, I just didn't expect such a markup.

So outside of some Platinum sets and Liokaiser, and ignoring stuff that's released but will take awhile to reach certain regions in saturation, we're uh, close to done with 2016 Hasbro releases, yeah?

If indeed that answer is "yeah", don't rush on Wave 2 if you don't have to. It's gon' be around.

Admittedly I have not really been keeping up with what is coming out. Is it true that Wave 2 is it for 2016? If so, you are probably right that stuff will be around later in the year. I'm curious to see how these figures sell, and if any will be available at a nice discount later in the year. I generally avoid paying MSRP + shipping/tax for figures. But I've jumped on many of the TR figures much earlier from release than compared to CW, and thus have paid MSRP. Luckily I have been pretty lucky in at least getting a discount on most to offset shipping/tax. I get the sense most of the TR line is well received (at least from the forums) and thus, will be harder to get a decent discount.

Yes, 4 waves of product per year. Waves 5 and 6 of Combiner Wars (combaticons and Autobot crew 2) took up the first half of the year, Titans Return waves 1 and 2 make up the remainder. TR waves 3 and 4 will kick off next year, although much like previous years, the first wave of the next year will probably start hitting late this year.

I had preordered Alpha Trion on Amazon.com last Friday. I will have him this Friday. Just got the shipping notification. Anyone else preorder him or Astrotrain? Did you get your shipping notice?

Sorry for the double post, but now the TR Legends are available at BBTS too!

Transformers Generations Titans Return Legends Wave 02 This is Ravage, Rumble (or Frenzy if your head canon works that way ) and Laserbeak, who is very black.....

In stock as of this writing, but I expect the initial stock to fly "off the shelves" so to speak, with a preorder to follow.

I'm kinda liking how BBTS is doing this now with their early shipments. Release the small initial amount as in-stock, with a preorder to follow.

Except, my poor wallet....

I pre-ordered Astrotrain last Friday and will be receiving it today. I'm guessing Amazon didn't have much stock of either figure as they sold out fairly quickly and none have come back up.

Sweet. I'm really looking forward to Alpha Trion.

And I look forward to knowing what you think about him!
