Get Air Raid instead. The rest of wave 2 are shelf warming, but Air Raid is nowhere to be seen.

I think I've heard of hotspot turning up at Toymate stores.

I think Handsprime recently spotted it at Toymate Top Ryde

Pre-Order MP Hot Rod or hunt down a Hasbro MP Grimlock

Maybe pre-order MP Hot Rod from an online store like HLJ which does not take money up front and hunt down MP Grimlock in the meantime. Prob have about 4 months to search for a Grimlock at the right price. If you then get a Grimlock you can decide what you want to do with the pre-order as you may also have funds for it at the time of release.

I went to Toymate top ryde yesterday and didn't see a hotspot, may have been hidden though, there was a massive amount of stock there.

Pre-order MP Hot Rod. Assuming that MP Grimlock's inflated price will not increase too much in the next half year or so, you're better off getting Hot Rod while he's cheap, rather than risk falling into a situation where you hunt & buy MP Grimlock at scalper's prices and then find that MP Hot Rod is sold out & have to resort to scalper's prices as well.

k cool.

If you can't find Hot Spot at toymate, check out Kmart. Don't go to Hornsby since it's boring there, but Castle Hill might have Hot Spot there

I'm not definitely getting either but an opened MP Bumble for about $80 or G2 Bee for about $70 sealed? From what I've read both sites are alright but I don't have a preference to either.
