Pretty sure Tarn is 1/04, so maybe tomorrow and Breakdown got bumped back to the 17/04.Quote:

I put an pre-order in to Amazon for Shrapnel and Crashbar today and just got a dispatch notification.
I've also got some pending transactions, so many that my CC got flagged and I got an app notification just a few minutes ago to yay/nay one as suss or not right when I should be in bed. Then I had to go to Amazon to revise the payment method for a few others.
Mutant Tigatron for $23
Transmetal 2 Megs for $50
Don't even want these. But at those prices....
New preorders for Wave 3 of Legacy Evolution
Core Class
Skar https://www.amazon.com.au/Transforme...dp/B0BDJ1F64S/
No preorder for Swoop who is part of this wave and is up for preorder in the US but appears to have gotten Needlenose'd here, this is becoming increasingly common with Hasbro products and not just with Transformers, I've seen it happen recently with Gi Joe Classified and Power Rangers Lightning Collection as well
Deluxe
Axelgrease https://www.amazon.com.au/Transforme.../dp/B0BDGMT55N
Beachcomber(and Bird Friend) https://www.amazon.com.au/Transforme...dp/B0BDJ3DVYD/
Devcon got Needlenosed too
Voyager
Dirge https://www.amazon.com.au/Transforme...dp/B0BDHMR164/
Nemesis Leo Prime https://www.amazon.com.au/Transforme...dp/B0BDHWDW1F/
Leader Class
Armada Megatron https://www.amazon.com.au/Transforme...dp/B0BDHZQB23/
The only 2 I wanted from the recent waves were Twincast and Needlenose FFS.

The only two left for me as well. Twincast has been spotted at Big W, so that one's just a matter of time (as the stock seeps out across the country).
Needlenose, though... That's starting to bug me (and I'm not about to pay $60 to get one from the US). As is the lack of sightings of the repacked Bomb-Burst.
I ordered Needlenose and Twincast from Popcultcha when it became obvious Amazon and JB wouldn't get them. Looks like I'm going to have to do the same for Devcon.
Here's the PR of Bomb-Burst if you need itQuote:

Transmetal 2 Megatron EVO delivered today for $45
Breakdown delayed again until April 30.
Some modest savings on a few figures, including the Guardian Robot for $277.
Legacy Evolution Commander Armada Universe Optimus Prime
https://www.amazon.com.au/Transforme...dp/B0BDHHBXN1/
179.99

Not sure if I should preorder prime or not. I typically wait for mainline stuff to go on discount, but the unicron trilogy was my g1 so I kinda want this guy asap.
On the other hand, Big W should be getting it in first (world first with the year's commander class toy is their thing), and last year that sale was in mid-June.
I'll be ordering at Amazon as a back-up, but I expect not to need it :)
I'd recommend pre-ordering at Amazon as a backup, because you don't have to pay anything until it is released.
And I don't know what the BigW June Toy Sale "exclusive" is this year. It isn't always the Commander Class toy, as it was the Titan Class toy for a few years first (from Metroplex to Omega Supreme).
Plus... Hasbro Australia would often prevent pre-order listings at other Australian outlets until after BigW has their release, to protect their "exclusive first release" status of the toy. Since Armada Optimus was listed on Amazon Australia today, it makes me think that it won't be this year's Transformers exclusive at BigW.
That's a very good point. Now I'm extra glad I already preordered.Quote:

Heres something new from Amazon
I just received TM2 Evo Megatron from Amazon, from when they had preorder for $50
It was NOT shipped in a box at all, no packaging or material like bubble wrap.
Nope.
They just stuck the shipping label to the actual toys box and sent it that way.
Attachment 6696
Attachment 6697
I thought Amazon had stopped that BS, but apparently not.
Well that sucks.
(Meanwhile ours got lost and never delivered, maybe someone saw a cool dragon and ran/s)
It sucks. Not the first Predacon box to be mailed that way. Shocking to see that was 10 years ago!Quote:

After sitting at $32 without any competition, Amazon AU has finally dropped Legacy Evolution Core Slug to $20.99 (matching Mighty Ape).
Now to patiently wait for a $99 clearance deal in 8 months.Quote:

Of course they do not check for that :(
Sorry that happened, hope Amazon get that refund to you with no hassle
I bought a Phillips Hue Bridge base station that was marked as a returned product, so I knew what I was getting. It was an 80% discount on the thing so I bought it instead of new. I found everything in the package that should be in there, but really concerning was the fact they didn't reset the device. So I got access to the original owner's account. Amazon doesn't give a damn.Quote:

Breakdown finally in stock
Nemesis currently matched at 284
SS WFC Optimus is starting to ship, just got my dispatch notification
Studio Series Core Class The Transformers: The Movie Exo-Suit Spike Witwicky for $6.12.
its never the cores i dont go for immediately that go on sale. Thats a nice enough price Im wondering about a Daniel though
Last night Hasbro (the Transformers facebook page) revealed two new 2-packs for Legacy Evolution, exclusive to Amazon in America.
One is "Humble Origins" with Senator Shockwave (a really weird looking light blue remoulded Siege Seeker Pyramid Jet) and Orion Pax (a remoulded Siege Hound).
The other pack is "Rise of Tyranny", with Senator Ratbat (a remoulded Studio Series Scourge) and Miner Megatron (remoulded Seige Megatron).
Then today, Amazon Australia put up a pre-order listing for just one of the 2-packs... but... someone screwed it up. The product page title, the URL name, and the product description paragraphs are all for the Humble Origins 2-pack, while the images are of the Rise of Tyranny 2-pack.
https://www.amazon.com.au/Transforme...dp/B0BDJ6XK2S/
After I pointed this out to Hasbro to get it fixed, the listing has just been edited. Instead of just changing the images to match everything else (including the most important part - the link that has the product named in it), they changed the product page title and the product description paragraphs to match the images... leaving it with a URL that says "Senator Shockwave" who is in the other 2-pack.
It also means that, even if they list the other 2-pack later, if Amazon Australia have fixed the wrong bits on this one and it is still a listing for the Humble Origins 2-pack, people who only want one of the two 2-packs, may get the wrong 2-pack sent to them if the listing is not matching whatever product code goes with the set.
Hopefully they list the other 2-pack soon, as I want to order both... so it then wouldn't affect me if both listings are actually selling the other 2-pack.
My SS Gamer Edition Bumblebee was cancelled and appears to be out of stock vs Barricade and OP...
