Walky (over on the Allspark) says that he was able to pick up a Scorch set "minute or so after the convention ended". So the possibility is that some of those toys are out there after all.
saberconvoy
Can't wait to get a hold of some of these
mostly soundwave and the blue fallen
Optimus_Prowl
Yep, I'm still waiting for them to show up round here. Nothing yet though. The wait is incredulous.
protostar8
Actually, that's great news for me. Means I might be able to pick them up at the local walmart instead of hitting the very unsafe semi-local TRU.
Optimus_Prowl
Nope, they supposedly just came out there first for the game's release. However they didn't and i don't think they are out en masse yet. Kind sad but thats how it goes.
protostar8
Refresh my memory, are Thrust, Drift, and the War for Cybertron toys TRU exclusives? I was thinking they were.
Optimus_Prowl
Here ya go mate

primenemesis
can someone direct me to the proper thread that discusses this original 13 information the hasbro panel put out? I did'nt go today but i went to most of the panels yesterday and did'nt hear anything bout them.
G.B. Blackrock
Understood. I prefer my information on such matters to come from FP whenever possible. I also know that they don't always like to release this information in a timely manner. I'm still looking for official confirmation of Punch/Counterpunch (widely accepted to be 1800 + 300) and SG Cyclonus (widely accepted to be at 1200). To say nothing of Heatwave, Dion, and any convention attendee exclusive figures.
payton34
Sure, although you may want to try and get a different source just to corroborate. The guy I was dealing with looked like he was ready to get out of there and may not have been giving me 100% accurate numbers.
G.B. Blackrock
Very helpful. If I don't get more precise or official information (especially direct from FP. I appreciated that they "tweeted" the sell out of the Sharkticons earlier), may I reference you as a source on the datasheet?
payton34
I left around 2pm and was told that the Scorch 2-pack was sold out, so only Rapido & Cindersaur was remaining (and less than 20 or 30 of those were left).
Autobot Burnout
I don't think so. Get rid of the green on the alt. mode for Lockdown and he'd make a pretty good Movie (or even Classics) Runa-theblackone. You might want to somehow make the head look less like Lockdown eventually, but it could work.
Thundershot
Oh! Yes… With any luck, there'll be some in the club store when they get back! If so, I hope they limit ONE OF EACH SET PER PERSON..
But they likely sold out…
G.B. Blackrock
So, any word on how many souvenir sets were left at the end of the convention (or if any besides the Sharkticons sold out)?
Auto Morph
I guess WFC Soundwave is the nail in the coffin for us ever getting Generations (ie G1)Soundwave?
Still, mustn't complain after what we've heard today.
einis
WFC soundwave -awesome!
jetfire4321
they must be trying really hard to get rid of cannon bumblebee
Valkysas
I'm glad he's going to be doing a different voice for him, because he can't pull off the G1 voice anymore and it's just embarassing when he tries.
Hopefully it isnt anything like whatever the hell he was doing for the 2007 movie game.
Paxtin
Me too. I'm actually really happy to hear that he's trying something different with the voice. Because his "classic" voice just wasn't working anymore.
