Gen Select 27 Galvatron

Screenshots of a video of Galvatron in-hand... by someone who appears to be proud of having stolen toys.

It does look great without all those stickers, yes. Not exactly what I want, but close enough (and some things can be done about at least one of the things I want different). Happy I ordered one through EB, although I now feel kinda like I'm paying $20-odd for a bunch of shitty stickers I'll be throwing away

Still not watching the video, though. Thought he was annoying as hell before he started buying stolen goods (and presumably soliciting their theft).

I hate thieves, and hate people profiting from thieves.

That aside, maybe pick it up if I see it in a store

Well, that won't happen. It's a Selects item. Even EB Games doesn't just get them in and put them on the shelf, they only supply what is specificaly ordered.

I've picked up plenty of Selects in store at Zing. If not, I'm not overly fussed and like anything else, I usually find a cheap alternative online

Here in Canberra my local zing stocks a lot of selects on the shelf. I just picked up Tricranius yesterday off the shelf.

I take it you don't have a Zing near you because they do, at least here in Brisbane. My usual has Transmutate and Ramjet still sitting there.

The EB Games in the same centre admittedly doesn't do it as much.

Usually items that are removed from their site within a couple weeks are ones that they are only ordering enough to cover pre-orders... but if it is an item that stayed there for pre-order until it was released, it generally means that they were allocated stock, and often leave the listing up even if they sold out of their allocation.

Then if items show up for sale in stores that was an item specially ordered to match pre-orders, they are probably cancelled/unfulfilled orders.

Most vic stores don’t get them in. WA and QLD seem to get lots.

Always exceptions to the rule... I think 1 Melbourne store stocks lots
