Nope. It was just out of stock the first time.
They don't 'put up more' for non-Premium members...even if there was an issue affecting untold numbers of customers. But take heart - She's listed on Walgreens, and she was not as of Tuesday. Keep checking there, as she's 18.74 on their website.
Yeah, I haven't had any problems getting Walgreens exclusives for TF or Marvel, so I'm sure it'll be fine. Though Twitter is my primary source for drops and, well, *points at dumpster fire*.
Preternia said he's 'going to post here until they shut it down' so keep using him. He's the man.
I use him too, my wallet hates him.

Am I the only one who thinks that Needlenose mold would make a good Cybertron Thundercracker?

Pvp mentioned being curious about needlenose being a potential combiner or something down the line. Maybe if retooled into dreadwind?
It also makes pretty much no sense but it looks like he could make up part of the Armada starsaber. I guess with another deluxe jet bot down the line
But it makes no sense for this character to be part of that, and it'd be a ridiculously huge weapon. So.... just me with a dumb idea lol

I dont like either of the ideas I had haha those were just thoughts that popped into my head, I don't support them
Windsweeper does sound like a solid idea

I think since 
made amends to fans with Legacy Menasor over that pile of garbage from CW it only seems fair that they do right and improve Liokaiser. Maybe someday over that unknown horizon.

And the last few posts suggested Dreadwind and Windsweeper (and no one loves Hasbro's '88 lineup more than myself!), plus Hellbat being a Dassault Rafale opens up the possibilities of Storm Cloud, Skyhopper, MW Tundercracker and Skywarp and BWII Dirge...
Well, in this new mold, Needlenose may finally live up to his function of fashion designer, if that many other 'Cons end up copying his style.
Or did you mean he could become LeoZack, since the torso is the biggest improvement CW LioKaiser begged for? I need to get going on making one out of PotP Starscream, and Jalagar out of...would it make more sense to have a missile-dune-buggy that turns into a big gun than one that tacks onto LioKaiser's butt?
Regardless, given his height for a deluxe, couldn't they have kept him a tad shorter and used the extra plastic to improve ZigZag and Sunbeam within budget? Oh well, he scales great with Spinister, and I can't pass up any '88 update.

In other words, you think he's intended as a premold for Hellbat?Nemesis Destron wrote:I think since

Wave 3 sightings but my stores only have the wave 1 Core and Deluxe figures, wave 2 voyager, some Galvatrons, and the respective store exclusives. Studio Series is a little better but that's its own topic. I wound up buying everything online. I'm not entirely sure where the blame lies but I'm getting flashbacks to Earthrise where something similar happened. If history fully repeats itself, a deluxe Legacy assortment will show up at Aldi with no announcement for the holiday season.

Yeah, my Target has had the same single Elita on the peg for at least a month now. As well as 4-5 Red Cogs and Galvatrons. But between Pulse and Amazon I got all the figures I needed so I'm giving up brick and mortar stores for a while, especially over the holidays.o.supreme wrote:So while wave 3 is just starting to make it's way into some areas.

Actually a little more complicated of a transformation than we thought. Looking forward to getting our hands on him

Surprisingly with all the stackable coupons, all the Red Cogs sold at my Targets, but still plenty of old Buzzworthy Terrorsaur, Dinobot, and Kup clogging shelves, and yes Galvatron and Coronation SS ( which is why I have yet to still see Sludge). For some odd reason I was able to sneak in an order on Amazon for Dead End a couple of days ago, but it's always my backup just in case I see it at B&M first, but as you say, I doubt that will be the case.

Could it be that due her color scheme some people are mistaking her for just another Arcee release? lol
I mean we've had a very heavy dose of Arcee lately one right after another while she was still hanging around.

I've yet to see even a single Elita release at any of my stores. It's still nothing but Wave 1 Deluxes over here.

Also the same at my Wal-mart; Full shelves, but full of wave 1 and every Velocitron figure except Cosmos and Hauler. SS Core class Ravage and Shockwave as well.

The above pics I posted were from Target. I've not heard reports of any Walmarts in the United States with Deluxe Legacy Wave 2. It's almost like they opted for Velocitron instead of standard Deluxe wave 2. Also, while Targets do have them, they are reduced to one peg instead of 2 ( can't even get a full case out) because Buzzworthy is clogging up all the other deluxe space with toy deco Terrorsaur and Kup.
