MP Soundwave now out in TRU stores here

[Omega Metro]

Meh! All this excitement for Soundwave pfffttttt. I only want the A-Train such a pretty GREEN. Just bit the bullet and bought one off ebay for $140 aus shipped, Not trusting any TRU's in Perth to have any sort of supply and this was the cheapest by a long shot. I'd never beat the mad rush from collectors and scalpers alike so this was the safe option for me

I really have no interest in either 'Snot Storm' or Soundwave so I can sit back and relax by my pool drinking and eating and not have to stress over getting a toy or 2.

Hey guys toys r us at Knox city in melbourne are getting 12 in on Monday of which I have 2 reserved, they should be there Monday failing that on Wednesday because of cup day. $150 per unit of the shelf. Happy hunting

Who reserved 5 of them at Penrith?

I would like to think a board member but my dollars would be on a gutter rat scalper.

It was bound to happen though, wasn't it? Now that the word is out.

i called Gepps Cross and the lady said the store computer is telling her that there are 10 on the way and to call back tuesday.

hmm...

Why doesn't TRU Oz follow TRU USA and limit 1 per customer? All it takes is for one Scalper to clean out an entire store of its very limited stock.

It's definitely going to be harder to get hands on one from non-NSW stores given the word is out there.

Or a preorder system were you leave a 20% for example deposit & then collect from your nominated store. At present, TRU have no intent of implementing either.
Would i give preference to our members who contribute and are active here access to information like an MP release over those who use the site for their own benefit without contributing? Absolutely.

just rang Knox, was told 1-2 weeks, but after mentioning that I had heard they will be in on Monday she was like "oh yeah well if they get the delivery unpacked in time then probably Monday" LOL.

So after asking if I can get one held she took my name and number and added it to the "customer logbook" and told me they will ring when it arrives. Just hoping that this means one is on hold for me as she didn't specifically say!

Reserved one, mate reserved 2 which was lucky coz the box was edge crushed & no available replacement. All reserved. Another guy who wanted 2 but reserved one bought the extra crushed one. His lucky day.
