    Kreo Microchangers wave 2 - is that the original wave 2, or the AOE collection 2, or the combiners wave 2? 'Cos I thought the latter 2 already had a release here, and I'm not sure if I missed the original wave 2 and I would very much like to get Groove, to complete my Kreo Protectobots.

    Those are all 2014 Kreo classes.

    So the Microchangers Wave 2 are...
    Autobot Gears (Gen1)
    Autobot Seaspray (Gen1)
    Autobot Wheelie (Gen1)
    Decepticon Blackarachnia (Animated or BW)
    Decepticon Runamuck (Gen1)
    Decepticon Skalor (Gen1)
    Frostbite (2004 Universe)
    Fuselage (Gen1 Octane?)
    Scattershot (2008 Universe Airrazor?)
    Skimmer (?)
    Sunstreaker (Gen1)
    Trailbreaker (Gen1)
    (these are the ones without numbers printed on them, which haven't been sighted here yet)

    Custom wave 2 (also yet to be sighted here) are...
    Galvatron
    Crosshairs
    Hound
    Bumblebee

    And the Custom wave 3 (which we should NOT be getting here)...
    Grimlock
    Scorn
    Slug
    Strafe

    Thanks for the news, as Hasbro AU runs Hasbro NZ now these lists show what we can expect over here (aside from any exclusives)

    Good to get the chance to purchase something locally, but I hate whoever decides what we get verses what we miss out on.

    The ones I meant (the ones I haven't seen and may have missed are the ones listed here as series 2, which include Groove. Listed on the TF wiki as a 2013 release. I was hoping the ones you were referring to were a late release of the 2013 series 2, but looks like I'm outta luck.

    I meant to say "they" instead of "those", as in the ones Hasbro were referring to. My wording could look like I was referring to the groups listed in your post.

    Meh...

    Hasbro AU and local retail has had its day, foreign online companies are providing the far better avenue and service - It'll be nice to MAYBE see something worth buying on a peg domestically, though, I wont be holding my breath however.

    with the dollar quietly tanking it might work out cheaper in the next 12 months to actually buy stuff here on sale than import. maybe

    It'll have to tank A LOT to justify buying $90 Leaders.

    well of course, but deluxes, maybe and smaller stuff most likely, especially Kreo Microchangers, it's already pretty good value buying them in singles here compared to the states.

    Griffin, I'm assuming the

    TF4 Deluxe wave 3 (Snarl, Hotshot, Bumblebee)Yes

    will probably arrive some time prior to Christmas?
