    I've asked, but have not yet had a reply.
    Maybe Goktimus would have better luck since he has actual contact with the Hasbro people.

    Today I got a reply from Hasbro, and it was only delayed because the person had been away for the last couple weeks.

    The reason for the limited amount of restocking we've been seeing in recent months is apparently due to Hasbro moving their warehouse, which is said to have disrupted their supply chain... and it may not be back on track until towards the end of the year (which relates to what the original email referred to - a worst case scenario could see the last three waves not hit stores until next year, BUT, if sales are good, we could see them before the end of the year).

    What I can quote from them, to help calm down the masses a little, is...

    In summary, we will be getting all the later waves of Combiner Wars.
    Now it's just anyone's guess as to when the remaining Combiner toys will show up in Australia.

    This is very good news, even if they are delayed it's still better then not getting them at all.
    Just a question though, will we be getting the full waves or will we still be missing out on a few size classes, just wondering about that particular bit since while we've gotten all the deluxes from wave two we haven't seen the Voyagers, Legends or Leaders.

    You know, now that you mention it, at work we are low on all Hasbro product except Nerf. Hope it won't effect Devastator showing up this month.
    I have a list of all G1 characters that have been released in CHUG form. You can find it here. Please feel free to let me know if I got anything wrong so I can fix it.

    Awesome. I'm glad I have Superion and Menasor. Not too worried about Defensor but Rook looks cool. Now for the wait for the optimus maximus limbs and other un-announced combiners. Lucky theres a few masterpieces coming up and want to get maketoys cupola (chromedome). So plenty to look forward to. Happy hunting/waiting for those still trying to get the combiner wars wave 2.
