I guess the promo is that WA has stock!Originally Posted by The Ghost
I tested it before when WA had no stock available and it worked. Today when there is stock, it rejected both the VIPBONUSOFFER and the WELCOME ones. :P
No matter, I just want Soundwave.
I'm debating on whether to order acid storm online or get him in store...

If not wrong Acid Storm had less stock than Soundwave, so technically if you are a true fan you buy it online and not risk. I decided to buy it first and decide whether I want to keep it later or sell it.
After being mislead with Soundwave, I think I decided not to waste my time at the store FOR WA, is basically a loosing end.
I am pretty sure this would sell as quick once people realised Soundwave is no longer available they grab the next best thing.

That term gets thrown around a fair bit without meaning to sound condescending. A better term would be "focussed" or "desperate"... as it suggests that a person is more passionately keen to acquire certain key figures or complete a set or series. Using the word "true" is very subjective, and gets some people defensive, when it isn't being intended as an insult.
Wow... it was there just a couple hours ago when I posted about Soundwave's page being taken down.
It shouldn't have sold out already. Perhaps they are just trying to prevent over-selling it like they probably did with Soundwave.

What Griff said. "True Fan" gets thrown around a lot and is very very subjective these days. We are all fans, and personally I think there is no "true" fan because it doesn't matter whether someone has been collecting for the last 30 years or only just recently.
Not trying to have a go at you though drifand, just trying to show my view.
But in any case, I am glad I got someone to get one for me from a store. I prefer to buy instore. Yea I can miss out but knowing it was actually coming out here to stores I wanted to give it a chance to get it that way. Lots of other things however I buy online (Generations, Tak MPs,) when I am not so sure we are going to get them. The latter I know we won't get instore, earlier we used to with MP Magnus, but as far as I know he was the only one to come to Target, and Ghost Starscream to Toys R Us.

Okay whatever dudes......I am sorry. My context was meant for the crazy nut who collects all.
Give it a rest and move on.

Were you able to buy soundwave online on TRU? If so how much was he online? I just ordered one from BBTS with some other transformers. Got Acid Storm from the TRU website though
EDIT: Don't worry, just found the price on the news page- I'm out $50 but oh well.

If that's the case, I'm not not a 'true fan' either so you are not alone. We can be 'Non True fans' together!

yah I would think so, I have no problem with that though. Like said a True crazy nut wouldn't care and buy it. That doesn't mean you are not a Transformers fan, I meant towards the all out to "collect them all" kind of people. sorry if that sentence kind of put some of you guys off. gee... my bad.If that's the case, I'm not not a 'true fan' either so you are not alone. We can be 'Non True fans' together!
