TRU MP Acid Storm and Soundwave Images!

[Trent]

I'm amazed you managed to find it dude, especially being an 'out-of-towner'.
Glad you've secured a TC though mate , it sucks that stocks were so sporadic & minimal in quantity for Australia , where apparently they can't move TC at all in the US.

From my understanding, TC isn't shelf warming in the states so much as they are just not flying off the shelves. People seem to have this idea that because this or that local TRU still has 1, 2 or 3 still available that the release was a major failure and its shelf warming and OMG this has done irrepairable damage to the Habro masterpiece line and Hasbro should listen to everything that I say cause I am a true fan!!!!1!!1!1!11!!!

Oh I've no doubt that it's likely blown out of proportion, North America has no clue what True shelf-warming is like , but I've heard it said often enough from a range of sources to the point I thought it was worth mentioning.

I'm just glad I managed to secure one myself without too much hassle.

I can't find a TC locally, so I'm getting it shipped for $113 from TRU America.
I wouldn't mind picking up an Acid Storm, but he's not THAT much of a priority that SW is.

I never saw MP Thundercracker in the stores in OZ so I am currently tossing up whether I buy him online too. The only MP figure i have been able to buy in store was MP10 Optimus Prime (and what a cool figure he is!). I really want MP11 Starscream but I dont think he got a local release? Although I want Sideswipe even more but I am reading he will not get a Hasbro release

That's correct. Thundercracker is the only version of the MP11 mould that was released in Australia.

I've read the same too. I skipped MP Red Alert... so if Hasbro won't do it then I guess I'll just to live without one (unless I happen to find a TakTOM version cheap).

I'm also hoping that Soundwave gets the mini Megatron gun like the takara version did.

[Bidoofdude]

I really would like that Megatron and maybe a couple other accesories, which would totally be worth the price, but probably not.
