SofaMan - Occasionally Battling Evil with his Mighty Powers of Indolence
I have a funny feeling we may have skipped Wave 3 (his wave - which also contained Prime and The Fallen).
And only recently has Wave 2 started to make their appearance at normal retail (Banzaitron) and now it seems they've jumped right onto Wave 4 (RTS Grappel, Lugnut and Strafe).
We often miss a few figures over Christmas/near the end of a line when Aussie retailers aren't purchasing much stock anymore and/or Hasbro concentrates its efforts on the American market.
I think the problem also was that we had tonnes of Wave 1 Voyagers still shelf warming for ages - Seaspray, Ratchet and Payload still seem to be everywhere.
Having said that though, I think the Highbrow wave wasn't released in great quantities since even online places like RK don't have stock of them and there weren't even that many listed on eBay (believe me, I kept watch for ages and finally sourced one from the US for pretty much AUS Voyager RRP)
There's quite a few more listed now that Taktomy has released their version, so maybe that's your best bet (slightly superior paint apps too).
That's an interesting comment. the robot mode can be a bit ugly.
Mixmaster was sold in vehicle mode, which is a good thing, otherwise there would be nothing but them on shelves. that is one Ugly sof.
I personally only bought Seaspray because I already had the molds of the others. I do like scavengers robot mode though, very good propertions I think.
I am hanging for Highbrow, I love the new aircraft that they are producing, they actually look good in robot and vehicle mode.![]()
