kind of a sad state of affairs when just finding these items in stock at normal price is newsworthy. Just to be clear, I'm not berating the messenger, its just that these items should be widely available to everyone at this price, for more than just a few minuets. Discounts are what should make news.

I am soooooo excited!!! :D I've been looking to get Moonracer at regular price for several weeks, and have been in and out of stores quite a bit. Hopefully they'll stay in stock for a while longer so more people can buy them.

Not when it's a brand new product. Finding a hot new toy at a regular retail price when it hasn't reached saturation at regular retail is definitely news when you can find it!

But its also motivated by fear. Fear Hasbro wont produce enough product, or that scalpers will purchase them all, so there never will be proper saturation (i.e. TR Deluxe wave 5) . Gotta get it NOW, because I might never see it again...that sort of thought saddens me.I have Rippersnapper, and I've seen one Sludge (which you could tell had been opened and returned). Expecting not to see these toys at B&M, or a case of *blink and you'll miss them" is frustrating. I've already told my family if they see a Blackwing, or Moonracer, those are the priority ones right now, since they are shortpacked. But as it is, I can only afford to get one of these each time I get paid. If ever I start to see them with regularity that is, or if these are still available at this price on Amazon come Friday...(yeah I know, not likely...)

It is when said product is shceduled to appear in April. These figures arent released anywhere else in the world, so of course their release at the moment is sparse in the US. This is more like a preview with stores getting one or two cases at a time. And since fans want them now rather than waiting, we try to help you out to get these early appearances.

Basically, finding them before april anytime is lucky enough and newsworthy enough, for these sought after products.
Good luck in your hunt.

Everything at the $16.99 price point is gone. My tip for everyone would be to keep checking back on them from time to time. Hopefully, they get more in stock soon.

Agreed. I've seen it in stock a few times at $16.99. By the time it makes the news, if at all (I never bothered reporting it in the past), it's likely sold out or close to it.

I only ordered Dinos. I'm hopeful HTS will have the rest of wave 2 and the leaders available with a discount code.

*slightly off topic* The one thing that worries me is... situations like Cogman... we've blown past him and into PotP... and he's never even shown up on Hasbrotoyshop.com. What will happen to MPM Barricade?

I appreciate knowing when Amazon gets new things in, but like many say... by the time it hits the news the scalpers have swooped in and "private warehoused" them for resale... T_T

Nothing kills me more when I see "fulfillment by Amazon" and it's a scalper...

I use something called camel tracker to help set price and in stock reminders but lately figures have been coming and going before I get a notification.

I recently bought a Cogman on Amazon from a scalper for $35. I NEVER do this. I hate scalpers and, up to this point, have refused to give them my money. But, all signs have pointed to him never showing up at mass retail in the US, similar to the final waves of Transformers Prime or TR Slugslinger. It makes me angry to feel like I have to pay absurd prices in order to get an item that was distributed so poorly that it will probably never find its way to your local B&M. What's more is that this situation seems to be becoming more and more prevalent, as if it is now just par for the course.

A big part of it and it started with The Age of Extinction which introduced all that extraneous (non-core transforming toys). B&M would blow out their budgets/warehouse on Wave 1 to make sure they had STOCK!!!! and then would fail to either purchase the later waves due to full inventories... or lack of moving product, which when Hasbro shoots their fans in the foot with repaint/repacks like in Last Knight... it becomes a nightmare.

It's like either the B&M logistics/purchasing folks don't know how "waves" work, or have no clue *how* Hasbro works. That doesn't even take into consideration the fact that distribution in general seems to be a crap shoot. For whatever reason most retailers seem to get their shipments on the East Coast and proliferate that way, as opposed to West Coast (which if they're coming from Asia would make more sense imo). So you'd think East coast or West Coast would get product first. But more often than not... everything seems to pop in the mid-west/great lake region...which makes not sense to me. Unless there's where most B&M keep their primary warehouses.

Hell wave 2 TLK was hard to find on the West Coast for a long time. It's only really started showing up at Toys R US due to them liquidating inventory. I've maybe seen wave 2 deluxes once at a Target or Walmart in California... and that was by no means "during the window of relevancy" when the movie was out.

The rare exception seemed to be the Voyagers. Wave 1 and 2 seemed to be pretty regular. Though Scorn and Nitro were very hit and miss.

Robots in Disguise were hit and miss, though I think there was also a BIG lag between waves. Or got lost with wave repacks.

ah cock.

i didnt know it was the entire wave 2 that was going for 16.99.

managed to snag a rippersnapper before he went back up but it wouldve been a great chance to pick up the last two dinos i needed for volcanicus.

like others have said i reckon itll happen again so i'll keep the eye out.

with shipping included its only 1 euro odd more than retail in my country so its deffo worth it.

I am currently compiling a list of toys that seem to have been skipped in the US. While there were not a lot of them, the US did get wave five titans return, at target. But you guys have yet to get the cyclone us and heat seeker legion toys from robots in disguise.. Also can somebody confirm if the last night legion dragon storm and hound were found at retail, along with all spark squeaks and Megatron?

Yep... This is why I'm skipping Blackwing. If Hasbro want's to continue hiking up the prices then I'm going to be less likely to collect every Generations figure I spot.

He's going to be the most likely to shelf warm in this wave anyway. So let me know when there's a 25% off clearance for him in May or June.

you have a better chance at buying at normal prices when buying from places like BBTS or TFsource
then you can just buy the whole assortment or wave in one purchase and you sometimes save money that way rather than buying individually

Um, isn't $15-$17 what Titans Return deluxes went for? How is Hasbro hiking up the prices? I'm pretty sure MSRP has remained the same for PotP as it was for TR. Stores may have increased their prices slightly over time, but that isn't Hasbro.

Also, Blackwing being single packed in the case isn't likely to shelfwarm that much, at least not in this wave. Possibly in wave 4 when he is re-packed, and out around the lead up to Christmas. This is when you'll want to look for a deal. And clearance usually doesn't happen until the end of the line, so again wave 4 around Christmas or just after like Titans Return did earlier this year. The 17 Blurrs and Scourges that were shelfwarming my local Walmart for 9 months didn't get clearanced until PotP was out in stores.

Agreed. The only time I've found PotP wave 2 in stores, all of the figures were still in stock, EXCEPT Blackwing and Moonracer. Rippersnapper seems to be the shelfwarmer.
Titans Return Deluxes were also $16.99 at my local Target. Walmart had them for around $15, and still does, so I don't think there's been any sort of price jump.
And my experience with getting Transformers on clearance is basically non-existent. If a figure's popular and rare enough, it's never gonna be found on sale. Take TR Perceptor for example. I saw his wave once in stores, and waited to get him, hoping for a sale at some point. Eventually someone bought him and I never saw that wave resurface again.

Just so everyone is all on the same page, the MSRP for these wave 2 deluxes is $19.99. Target and Walmart lower them to whatever price they want. But there has been a price jump, some retailers just arent doing it on their end yet for these toys.

Will, any idea on how that compares to Titan's Return's MSRP for deluxes? I though that was also $19.99 meaning Hasbro didn't hike the prices, at least for deluxes. I thought I remembered that possibly Voyagers and Leaders might have gone up $5 each like the TLK line did before them.

Frankly, I thought so too, but as it turns out, we were never given an MSRP for those.

Neither in their individual descriptions
https://www.hasbro.com/en-in/product/tr ... F17A01F8F9

Or in the material hasbro sent us
https://www.seibertron.com/transformers ... ion/34036/

The first time we were given a pice lately was with the TLK deluxes which were indeed 19.99

What are you Hasbro's marketing team?

In my neck of the woods TR's ranged from $14.99 to $15 and change at retail. Even the first wave of PotP's were 14.99 with 25% off back in November. But if you wanna pat Hasbro on the back for charging $17.00 for Dlx Dinobots that look like little baked potatoes with legs then go ahead.

That's NOT going to dismiss the scale and quality issue's accompanying the price hike (In My Area) that bothers me and many others...

I actually found a Toys R Us express near me that had a bunch of wave 3 Deluxes (only place so far). However, there wasn't a single Bumblebee among them. This seems to be a common trend, because Bee was the first to sell out (and not get restocked) on Amazon. Was he shortpacked in the case?

Hasbro's marketing team? Where the hell is that even coming from. I'm just pointing out what you are blaming Hasbro for, is more likely the retailers pricing decisions.

So, lets see. You are trying to compare a sale price and discount from November, when toys are marked down for the Christmas rush toward a regular non-sale price in March, and insisting is must be Hasbro raising prices. Um, okay, whatever feeds your rage man.

In any case, if you are deal hunting, then November/December is your best bet, been that way for years. There will be some smaller deals right now leading up to Easter, but the best time for deals is November/December for a current line, or the start of a new line for clearance on the previous line.

No, every character was 2 per box

And holy shit, the cases are sold out at BBTS, that means people bought all these toys just to get BB and crosshairs (since the other is a repack and another is a straight redeco).

No, every character was 2 per box

They probably just broke the cases open, because the set of 4 is still for sale

Did you order them at the same time? I ordered my two figures separately.

Yep same order. I don't think there are smaller boxes so if I only ordered 1, it probably would've came in the padded yellow envelope.

I've never ordered any item from Amazon proper that came in an envelope. Even a single dvd, always came in a small box with padding. If it came as you stated it would have been from a 3rd party seller

I think it may depend on the DC it comes from or maybe the individual packaging the order. I most often remember having my orders arrive in a box, but the condition of the card can vary. Sometimes a figure will come to me with the card/ box in pristine condition & other times it will look like they sat on the figure while they were taping one side of the box together.

Amazon has the POTP Wave 2 Deluxes back in stock. Rippersnapper & Sludge are available for purchase at the price of $16.99. Blackwing & Snarl are also $16.99 showing an in stock date of March 24. The one catch is it doesn't look like Moonracer is on sale right now.

FYI - It isn't really a case of on sale, versus not on sale. Amazon's regular price for the PotP deluxes is $16.99. The ones that are showing up higher, are sold by other sellers, which means that Amazon itself is out of stock. That is why the price seems to fluctuate so much. When Amazon gets some in stock, the listing will default to Amazon as the seller at their price. As soon as they are out of stock, it will usually default to whatever other seller has the lowest price.

Ebay is at it once again, bringing us a new day and a new deal! Today's special offer is a chance to make an eBay order and get 15% off the whole order. This deal can only be used once, but it can be used on multiple items paid for at the same time, as yours truly was able to prove by just using said coupon.

The code for the deal is PREPSPRING and can be added in the window where you finalize your payment. The offer is only good until tonight at 11pm Easter, 8pm Pacific time, so make sure to place your order in the next 3 hours to get the deal!

And stay tuned to both Seibertron.com, for all your latest Transformers news, and to Ebay as more than likely they will continue dropping these few hour long deals on us without warning. And if they do, make sure to report it to us so the rest of the fanbase may have a chance!

As I would expect, now that the sale is over, my local Target had all the Wave 2 Deluxes (except Moonracer) which I purchased on Amazon last week. Maybe if I'm lucky the Walmart I'm heading to next will have the Prime Masters or Voyagers.

Looks like you won't find any POTP on their website. I just see some leftover Last Knight, Titans Return, & some Playschool offerings.
