Today I found wave 3 in its entirety at the same store.
They had 3x Groove, 2x Viper and 2x Warpath (as far as I could tell; their toy department looks like a war zone), which suggests this case assortment.

No sighting for Rodimus and Skywarp yet as far as I can tell, and with all sightings of the Legends hailing from the same chain, I'm fairly certain this is wave 3 proper.

Was the Warpath with Viper or, as per the uk, Rodimus & Skywarp? (both options involve a Groove so…)

UPDATE: Both Groove and Viper at the Müller store in Wuppertal-Barmen!
And fellow TFW2005 user Nightshadow found Warpath at the Müller store inside the Köln Arcaden shopping mall in Köln-Kalk:

Fellow German fan Philister found Groove and Viper at a smaller store named Faix in Weiterstadt:

Still no trace of Warpath.

At this point it wouldn't surprise me if the Voyagers arrive in Italy or the Netherlands first.

Hoping this means they're gonna show up in he UK soon.
But damn when are our Voyagers showing up?

Minor update: The fellow fan who found both Groove and Viper saw them at the Müller store in Ahrensburg (near Hamburg).

Officially not enough requests from retailers, in reality (in Italy at least) no advertisments whatsoever of the line for wave 1, so all the line is a shelfwarmer, and bad distribution with regions submerged with toys and others with no sign of them.
Let's just hope we really see wave 3…

So EU won't see Wave 2 except online specialist stores, too bad, but why?
Hmm anyways my wave 3 order is on the way from Archonia.

Seen today at the Müller drug store in downtown Gelsenkirchen. They had four in stock, now they have three.
A fellow German fan also reported having found both Groove and Viper at a Müller store just a few hours before I got home today (not sure which city).
Coupled with the UK sighting of the Combiner Wars wave 3 Deluxes, this is more confirmation that wave 2 is indeed being skipped in Europe.
