TRU MP Soundwave & A/Storm prices and codes

[Skript]

The 4 month countdown is on

Still waiting to see if PRID Magnus is coming..

Thanks Sinnertwin for the info, hopefully everyone who's after one will get one this time.

Acid Storm bought on site! Even at $100, it's still cheaper than that fershlugginer MP Sunstorm!

A stab in the dark, but did you get "fershlugginer" from the novelisation of Spaceballs?

Thanks Sinnertwin. I hope we can all get one. Fingers crossed I'll get one of those 30 Soundwaves.
I might get Acid Storm if I see him.

[Sinnertwin]

Thanks for the info Sinnertwin.

Do we know how many MP Primes and Thundercrackers there were, for comparison?

554 units for Optimus
288 units for Thundercracker. Which reminds me, 2 units on systems at Erina, NSW.

MP's SW and AC will also be packed two per case.

Hmm i do wonder why they ship less mp seekers? IMO it was harder to find TC not to say OP was not hard to find as well.

I'd be inclined to say popularity. OP is the flagship character of the franchise & everybody loves the cassette fellow. Could also be the feedback based on previous seeker sales

Hmmm... Interesting, similar number of Soundwave to Prime and 112 more Acid Storm than Thundercracker.

Thanks for the numbers.

I'm a bit unsure of what you mean by the case numbers tho. "Two per case" would give an equal number of each, but your opening post states 600 SW to 400 AS... Or does it mean that there are cases of two for each of them.

It would be difficult for TRU to be able to establish what MPs will move. Prime, Starscream, Thundercracker and Grimlock went fast. Ghost Starscream was overpriced and Rodimus went on clearance for $40,

[Sinnertwin]

Each case will contain two units of their respective toys. In that respect we're looking at 300 cases of SW over 35 stores, which means uneven distribution.

[Bidoofdude]

Darn. Hope they actually get most of them on the shelves this time, with even placement.

I dont get much of a chance to toy hunt so if anyone is keen to help out in melbourne when these come out it'd be really appreciated!
