Transformers Power of the Primes Wave 1 of Prime Masters on HTS.com

Thanks for heads up. I ordered the the 3 prime masters and saw that all legends figures were also available. I picked up Beachcomber and Slash as well. I wish the 12DEALS promo would have helped but nope...at least there was free shipping.

The December 21st availability date may have changed. When I placed the preorder just now, HTS said that the figures would be available on December 14th and that's the date they would be shipped out.

Just ordered all 3 Prime Masters. Got a date of 12/14 for the ship date for the Prime Masters so looks like that moved up. The set of 4 Legends figures were also in stock so I picked those up as well. The 12DEALS code does work for these. Got $15 off plus free shipping.

HTS has something going on with their promo code where it's effect changes every day this week. Yesterday, it was to randomly get X% off of something. But the Prime Masters obviously didn't qualify, so I got no special deal on those. And I didn't want to risk waiting a day for a deal that might save me a couple bucks, and perhaps finding them 'out of stock' again. We all know how HTS loves to list things out of stock....

HTS finally seems to be a little up and doing, even if it is late to the game. Are you still having trouble finding the "Apeface" Titan Master? He's been restocked and available for purchase at HasbroToyShop.com!

This one has been REALLY hard to find in stores, and prohibitively expensive on Amazon - sometimes over double the retail price. So be sure to grab this one if you haven't seen him in stores (and as far as I know, NOBODY has....)

Another update for Titans Return figures from HasbroToyShop.com. They're all currently listed as 'coming soon' - you know how they are But hopefully that means they will BE available before long.

Among the new figures listed:
Quake, Slugslinger, Octone, Krok, and Kup. Still no sign of Misfire, curse them! Check out their listing to see if there's any you wanted, but still can't find in store!

KUP: https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa ... 0?catName=
KROK: https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa ... 0?catName=
QUAKE: https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa ... 0?catName=
SLUGSLINGER: https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa ... 0?catName=
OCTONE: https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa ... 0?catName=

On the down side? Ramhorn is gone from the hasbrotoyshop.com listings. On the plus side? All the OTHER figures that I mentioned in the post just above are now actually available, including Quake, Kup, Octone and Slugslinger!

So order yours before Hasbro can change their minds - again!

Fellow news staff user william-james88 has just let us know that the Toys'R'Us website appears to have in stock - at the time of writing - the elusive and surprising Transformers Titans Return Grotusque, the remold of Twinferno, and carrier for Titan Masters Fengul and Scorponok, including two collectable cards!

Currently limited at 1 per household, priced at £24.99, with $29.99 eligibility for free shipping in the US, head here to purchase yours now.

Imagine harnessing the power of not 1 Titan Master but 2, with this special edition Transformers Grotusque 3-figure pack featuring a Titans Return Deluxe Class figure, a Titan Master figure, and a special edition die-cast Titan Master figure. The Titan Master figure becomes the head of Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader Class Titans Return figures (each sold separately).

In Titans Return, the Autobots and Decepticons unite with Titan Masters, small bots that carry a power boost. Titan Masters are key to controlling an ancient race of warriors the size of cities: The Titans.

Character Specs:
Grotusque
Function: military strategist

Decepticon Fengul
Function: optics scorch

Scorponok
Function: super firepower boost
Unite and power up for battle.

Figure Specs:
Deluxe Class Grotusque
Modes: robot, gargoyle
Converts in 18 steps

Titan Master Fengul

Titan Master Scorponok

The Transformers Titans Return Grotusque Action Figure Set Features:

Includes a G1-inspired Deluxe scale Grotusque figure and 2 Titan Master figures

Includes special edition die-cast Titan Master Scorponok figure

Comes in Transformers special edition packaging

I ordered my two Grotusque Exclusives (separately of course because of the limit of 1 per customer) and while I had to pay for shipping for both instead of qualifying for free-shipping had I been able to order both together, it's worth it just so I'll have this figure after waiting so very long for it to finally be available to order.

Now my fingers are crossed that both are shipped without incident and also that Hasbro releases a Deluxe Class Repugnus in the Power of the Primes line. We need the complete team of Monsterbots!

Yeah good luck waiting for a deluxe repugnus. Think there’s room in that corner where people are still waiting for Takara Liokaizer

Might pick up a second Blot and customize it for Repugnus, because I don't see a deluxe being released either.

Ordered Grotusque. Trying to think of a good body to use for Scorponok.

Tidal Wave works out pretty good! And you can pair him with Trypticon too, with the headmaster slot in the back of his head, you can have Scorponok make him smarter

Whoa, got em. Well I guess I can thank Visionaries for something after all. Wouldn’t have seen that report if I wasn’t reading the thread.

Thank you for the heads up!!! Just ordered one!!!

I think a deluxe Repugnus is quite possible when you think about what other somwhat obscure characters hasbro has done solely to appease fans by compleating "teams"

* Broadside to complete Autobot triple changers

*Quake to complete the Funpub targetmaster juniors team

*Slingshot, Wildrider, and Groove for the fans unhappy with the addition of new characters replacing traditional members

*Kickback because fans kept bitching and bitching and it made sense.

While a more accurate Liokaiser from Takara could have been done with the silverbolt mold, the 6th member would still be missing. I think that was enough to make Takara shy away from doing Liokaiser. Whether due to budget constraints or just out of respect for the Hasbro concept, they didnt want to eliminate the scramble city concept with a double bot torso. Not to mention Hasbros Liokaiser was already at Takara standards in the paint app department. So it would have been the torso or nothing which is what Takara chose.

On the other hand, Hasbro likes to make retools like Grotesque and Arcee to bring in easy $$$. While a future deluxe repugnus might not be a headmaster to go with the other 2 monstrobots, the upcoming terrorcon molds make it entirely possible and profitable. Rippersnapper, Blot, and even Cutthroat would be too easy to resist for Ha$bro.

I think we are going to see a few "black box exclusives" from the POTP molds this year.

Ordered mine! Giggity

That does look good. Thanks for the suggestion. And I do have Tidal Wave with no special attachment to the character. I was thinking a spare Brainstorm or Slugslinger until your post.

got my order in. he'll go well with my Hasbro Twinferno, Takara Doublecross and 3 Repugnus

I don't like this figure. It looks kinda stupid.

Insult to injury is that Scorponok head instead of releasing an entire Scorponok even a Voyager one would be cool until a Titan class is released.

Pass!

Normally I am not a pink person but I like so many robots that have pink in their color schemes. (I think Victorion is responsible for getting me started.)

Nice to see that Grotusque is finally available! I've been waiting for him to come out for months now. Managed to order mine.

Just ordered mine this morning lol

Leader Evolution Rodimus is in stock on Target’s website, if anyone is interested, for $44.99. Oddly he’s the first and only PotP figure to be listed so far.

Whew, I had a feeling it would FINALLY come available while I was in the middle of a 24 hour whirlwind of international flights and airport layovers. Thankfully is was still available as soon as I got to my hotel and some reasonable wireless. Threw in a Barbie for my youngest to get the free shipping. I have finally completed Titans Return. Sweet feeling.

Just a heads up, I made a titan master adapter for the energon scorponok mold family just for this release on stairways.

Thank you. Just ordered online then paid in store with in-store credit.

Sweet! I just got one! Thanks!

I'm jazzed to say that my TR Grotusque shipped out today, I should have him in hand this Friday! And thus it was though the screams of a thousand Scalpers were suddenly silenced!

Glad I could help!

Mine shipped out today too.

... And it arrived today!!!

Got my Grotusque today, haven't had a chance to even open the shipping box.

We've received notification from a fellow Transformers fan based in Singapore, that the regional Toys'R'Us website is now showing a listing - and it's marked as in stock at the time of writing - for the new re-release of Hasbro Transformers Masterpiece MP-10 Cybertron Commander Optimus Prime!

The item is a second release of the 2012 MP10 mold, not counting the Platinum Edition Year of the Horse version from 2014, and is still considered a Toys'R'Us Exclusive in the United States too. We seen the figure arrive in the country too, but Singapore fans can already purchase theirs with this information - and at the currently discounted price of $279.93 Singaporean dollars (approx 210 USD).

The Transformers Masterpiece-10 Action Figure - Optimus Prime Features:
Classic Masterpiece-10 Optimus Prime figure

Converts between robot and truck modes

Converts in 24 steps

Comes with roller, Matrix of Leadership accessory, and battle accessories

Includes Spike Witwicky figure

Weird that they're using "Cybertron" instead of "Autobot" for a Hasbro product.

I mean, it's not like Optimus is the ruler of all of Planet Cybertron or something, he'd never want that job.

Attention mortals! A bit late as usual but PotP voyagers Grimlock and Starscream are finally actually available to purchase at Hasbro toy shop online!

https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa/-e1136as00
https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa/-e1137as00

If you still can’t find them in stores, now is your chance! Try the “NEW2018” promo code, and if your order is over $50, shipping is free!

Edit - the NEW2018 code only seems to work with a very few items here and there on the website. But there is a new code - "JAN2018", that gives an 18% discount and free shipping for PotP figures, and Titans Return figures! Get Grimlock, and Starstream, and Slugslinger and save money!

Rodimus Unicronus is available on TRU’s website, for anyone interested.

https://t.toysrus.com/product?productId=0415416F

HasbroToyShop.com is at it again! They've posted PotP Elita-1 and Hun-Gurr on their website!

But don't get too excited, because they've done their usual 'thing' of posting them when they don't actually HAVE any available for purchase. But keep your eyes peeled because this usually means it's only a few days before they DO become available...

Not on purpose! And besides, it's HTS that keeps yanking our chains like this, posting the toys when they don't actually have them yet - with that, what is up?

HTS finally has Rodimus Prime from Wave 1 on sale and in stock.

https://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/en/htsusa ... 0?catName=

And Grimlock is back in stock, though I don't know for how long. I have had a real hard time trying to get this wave 1 voyager and leader. I haven't seen them in stores in my area, and Amazon isn't much help either (they are selling Grimlock at $35.84 as of this post).

Also there is a 15% discount for all action figures using the code at the top of the page. Transformers (at least Rodimus Prime) can use this discount code.

It has something to do with their (questionably executed) efforts to integrate the product listings on hasbro.com to the shop listings on HTS. Can happen in reverse too - find a listing on hasbro.com, click a "buy" button to go to HTS, and nothing but Mr. Potato Head and his 404 message.

Yeah, I consider HasbroToyShop to be Hasbro's personal TJ Maxx. The fastest clicker gets to scrape the barrel.

HasbroToyShop.com has the first wave of "Studio" Series figures up on their website:

Everything seems to be in stock except for the leader figures Blackout and Grimlock, which are listed as 'Coming Soon'...

I really like this thread, so, dragging up from the depths...

BBTS has Power of the Primes Titan Predaking up for preorder. $159.99. Lists the release date as mid-July 2018 (which is pretty specific for BBTS, so I bet it will come out in a couple of weeks. )

Power of the Primes Predaking can now be preordered at various online retailers. The price across the board is $159 USD. The Takara release is also available for Japanese fans (or international fans located close to Japan and fear the Hasbro release will not be found at retail). As fellow Seibertronian Agamemnon points out, the release date on certain sites is very specific, with BBTS claiming it will be available mid-July 2018. This means fans of the toy are only a month away from holding this bad boy in their hands. For those hesitant, we have a video review for you below the list of various sellers offering a preorder.

Bigbadtoystore

TFSource

Robot Kingdom (currently in stock, not a preorder)

Ages 3 and Up

HLJ (September release)

Best choice would probably be tfsource. It’s free shipping and ships fast. BBTS changed how they process and it now takes me 3-7 days for them to process my payments and another 3 to ship. Robotkingdom is also fat to ship but is in China so you’re looking for $30+ on shipping.

I wish Walmart would pick up Titan class for retail now that toysrus is gone. It was the only place that carried Titan class toys in my area

Amazon too.

https://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Gen ... 079VNNGM5/?tag=seibertron07-20&

I pre-ordered him, though I have the bad feeling I'm going to regret it. I'm afraid there's going to be another Trypticon issue where his waist breaks easily or something and I should've waited for the revisions.

Walmart usually stocks the titans online.
