For any Canadian which couldn't find this in stores, this is good news since the $109.99 price (USD 81.94) is easier to digest than the $161.08 (USD 119.99) that importer sites have been charging.Hopefully it reaches the rest of the world soon.

Because... ?

Sometimes I wish Hasbro operated like the Club where you can just select the option of getting it in plastic bags and cut your price by a quarter.
Which is basically what Lena was.

I agree it is a pretty expensive set for what you get and 2 of them are basically the same with the same colored plastic, I don't know what you are really buying.

Menasor is driven by one thing and one thing only: a desire to obliterate the enemy. He attacks Decepticons – on the ground or in the air – with all-out force.
Convert, attack and destroy with this incredible 7-in-1 Menasor Collection Pack! There’s a whole force of Decepticons in this pack and they’re spoiling for a fight with their Autobot enemies. Whether these sneaky Decepticons are in robot mode or vehicle mode, they’ll attack with everything they’ve got! And when that’s not enough, they’ll combine to form a massive, unstoppable Menasor figure! Maybe the Autobots could defeat Motormaster, Decepticon Dragstrip, or Dead End alone. Maybe Breakdown, Brake-Neck and Blackjack won’t be enough to stop the Autobot advance. But when they combine, Autobots beware! Dominate the Transformers battle with your Menasor Collection Pack!
•Includes 6 figures, poster, collector card, poster, accessories, and instructions.
• 7-in-1 Menasor Collection Pack includes 6 Transformers figures
• Each figure converts from robot mode to vehicle mode and back
• Includes Silverbolt, Air Raid, Powerglide, Quickslinger, Skydive, and Firefly figures
• Figures combine to build a Menasor figure (other figures sold separately)
• Includes poster and collector card
• WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD - Small parts will be generated. Not for children under 3 years.
• Ages 8 and up

Dont worry guys, it will come back and be available everywhere. This just means we all have a bit extra time to save up for when he comes in stock elswhere.

Whew! (I hope) I either just got my order in before they ran out, or I'll be getting a cancellation notice pretty soon. I did get my confirmation email, but not a shipping confirmation yet. Keeping my fingers crossed.
I hope it does come back for all of you soon, 15% off with code SPRING16 is so nice for this.

Funny how this goes all the way back top the original Transformers. I remember in 1985/86 seeing the Superion gift set numerous times, but I never saw the Menasor one in a store. Saw plenty of the individual toys everywhere, but no Stuntacon Giftset/ Come to think of it...I think Superion was the ONLY gift set I ever saw on in store (never saw Defensor, Computron, or Piranacon)
*(In the United States, Gift sets of Bruticus, Predaking, and Abominus were never released as they were in Japan & Europe)

Oddly enough, my parents must have found it somewhere because I got it for Christmas. I think I even basically plagiarized the entire back of the box for a "What did you get for Christmas" writing assignment once winter break ended.
Menasor, Sideswipe and Skywarp were and still are my favorites from childhood, so I basically look out for any incarnation of them.
I almost pulled the trigger on one on Amazon for about $105 just 2 days ago. So glad I waited for HTS and they had a code. Can't wait to get the neon badass.

Still a cool story though. I remember getting Omega Supreme in 85, and Fort Max in 87. Good times.

Wow, they didn't fix the issue with Motormaster's hips like BC OP for this release? And it seems that all the tolerances got even worse from the regular release that I have.
Posted by DeathReviews on March 10th, 2016 @ 4:56pm CST
It was funny to read how they took the bios from Superion and just plugged Menasor's name in his place. Who knew that Menasor would 'fight the Decepticons with all out force in the land and in the air'? And that Silverbolt, et. al., are the figures included?

Yeah, I noticed the hatchet job on the Listing description too, pretty funny. I'm wondering if they actually ran out of stock, or if they didn't mean to release the Listing until the 15% off code expired.
Posted by DeathReviews on March 10th, 2016 @ 8:27pm CST
Still, who's complaining?

Nice, Glad I could help. I really lucked out, I wasn't sure if the brief availability of G2 Menasor was actual stock or an error and was waiting to either get a ship confirmation or cancellation notice. Got the ship notification last night and FedEx already has delivery scheduled for tomorrow end of day. Whoo-hoo! Now I just have to find a 90's inspired neon shirt to wear when I open it up.

First off, SPRING16 gets you 15% off of your order. It expires on the 16th of March.
The better code is SPRINGFF, which is 20% off AND free shipping through March 31st. I don't know why there's an overlap, but there might be some stuff that SPRINGFF doesn't cover which SPRING16 does. They have all the Combiner Wars Deluxes from wave 3 forward in stock except for Rook, but including repacks in those waves like Dead End and Air Raid. The wave 3 figures are $15 each, everybody else is $17.
Voyager figures they have are Silverbolt, Motormaster, Cyclonus, Battle Core Prime, and Scattershot for $25.
Leaders are G1 and Armada Megatrons, Ultra Magnus, Thundercracker, Starscream, and Skywarp (twice) for $45.
Legends in stock are Thundercracker, Bombshell, Huffer, Windcharger, Blackjack, Groove, and Warpath for $10 each.

G2 Menasor has also shown up on toysrus.com for the actual MSRP of $99.99.
Also,
At toysrus.com Year of the Goat Platinum Edition Optimus Prime has been marked down even further from $149.99 to $79.98!
If I wasn't going to Botcon, that Goat Prime would be in my cart.

It was there earlier but they probably broke the street date and Hasbro C&D'd them.

Just by way of clarity, which forum should online stocking and sightings be posted? In this one, or in the online sightings/available one? They're both kind of the same. Should one be consolidated into the other to avoid confusion...?

Thee is no difference, its just a subline which reminds people that these guys have fists which can hold 5mm weapons, which is what the minicon weapons turn into.
It just means "and remember kids, hey can also hold weapons in their hands... each sold seperately"

I dont know which other one you are reffering to. Is another thread being used recently for the same purpose? Give me a link and I will check it out.
