Combiner Wars Deluxe Wave 3 – Protectobots – Out at UK Retail

I got a good deal on deluxe wave 2 combiners.
TRANSFORMERS 2015 COMBINER WARS SERIES 2 ALL 4 DELUXE LOOSE FIGURES No Packages | eBay

£63 total for the four of them with comics and shipping from America. I was going to throw the packaging away anyway.

I'm **just barely** willing to pay £16 off a shop shelf here, and I ate £17 for QS and BN because they're exclusive – but post and customs turns that $19 into £19, and NO.

I know. I don't like it either. £15 is the most I would pay for the toy itself, but £2 shipping from America for something that won't get released here for months, if at all… I'd rather pay a little more than to miss out entirely. I don't know if its because you're in Ireland, but I've not been paying additional customs costs. Or I've been lucky so far. The price I see on amazon is the price I pay. Its not always a good deal but sometimes it is.

Why aren't more people in the U.K. ordering from Amazon.com? Just use Standard Shipping and they cost less than they would do in the U.K. Sometimes combining orders results in even cheaper shipping, sometimes not. Two deluxes cost less when shipped individually, whereas two Legends cost less when combined with a second, but more when combined with a third.

Brake-Neck just cost me a little over £17 and will be in stock Wednesday this week.

I normally would – I ordered Quickslinger and Break-Neck, and I've got a Leader Megatron coming who worked out at £45 – but Amazon's new fondness for charging $19 for an ordinary deluxe can, basically, jump right up its own ass. I'm **just barely** willing to pay £16 off a shop shelf here, and I ate £17 for QS and BN because they're exclusive – but post and customs turns that $19 into £19, and NO.

No TRU in Italy, there were but now we have a lousy monopoly of Toys Centers which overprice and get toys months laters if at all… We felt so very lucky when Wave 1 got released countrywise in normal stores (ie: Deluxe CW at Toys Center 30 €, retail store 22 €, mall 17 €).

For it to be a verified Hasbro UK release it needs to be in one of the chain toy shops like The Entertainer, TRU or Smythes, a supermarket or other non sci fi specialist.

It also needs to be in UK multilingual packaging and not have an importer's sticker on it. For example the Generations Voyagers in B&M and TRU have an importers sticker on and the Legends in the Entertainer, despite not having a sticker, have been identified as being Canadian/Mexican stock.

Yes it's VERY confusing!

Ah, well now I feel silly. Thanks for clarifying, though!

I found wave 2 at my walmart in florida on the panhandle

Forbidden Planet is the answer!

Hi all, I pre-ordered mine from Forbiddenplanet.com a while ago, and have them in hand now, the pre-order still says June, but I think they are gradually getting more shipments. I wanna put this out there because it seems nobody on here has noticed. TRU is not the only hope, the UK ones suck anyway. Forbidden Planet is the answer! Got all mine in hand now from them! And I have Megatron and Blackjack on pre-order, they haven't come in yet.

Man I've got 4 protectobots. Need Hotspot.

It's nice to know the Protectobots will finally get a retail release here, but I want to see what's happening with Takara's Defensor before I buy anything.

Kapow Toys are my fave UK retailer for the UW imports. They're very reliable and friendly, check them out! They've got UW Defensor up on preorder now.

Some of them are more expensive, take a look at the prices for Motormaster, Air Raid & Deadend…all more expensive than the others
