I pre-ordered Cosmos and Road Rocket on Hasbro Pulse U.K. today, but Override was already sold out. I'm not too bothered, though; I really need to curb my spending!
TF Hot Rod
So I got Blurr, Scourge, Override and Cosmos through Walmart. Mostly got the last two due to not wanting to pay scalper prices if I regret not getting them, IDK if I will keep them. Also ordered Blurr and Scourge (the main 2 I want) through Pulse just in case.

My Walmart pre-order shows it's supposed to arrive to me on August 11th, so I guess start checking your local Walmart(s) first of August.
Nemesisprime1975
Preordered Road rocket and Override from pulse.
Scrapper6
Not a fan, scored everything except Cosmos and Clampdown. How are those ones both sold out, but not everything else? UGH. I hate Wal-Mart Exclusives.
MintCondition
Does anyone know when they're supposed to start showing up in stores?
MintCondition
Looks I missed Cosmos from every possible website. Cool
Nemesisprime1975
Good to know
Dann86
Override and Cosmos bagged. Glad they hit Pulse UK.
AnonymousDwell
I never even saw him on Walmart lol. (As expected.) Searched for him and he never popped up. He still doesn't, not even as sold out. Oh well as I said before, not going to sweat it. And not going to pay aftermarket prices. The mold will come around again, doubtful they did all that work just for a one-off.
KibblerGrrrl
She's thankfully supposed to be repacked in Velocitron wave 2. I'm hoping that's remains the case, as I couldn't afford to preorder her right now after grabbing two Velociton deluxes, my Wreckers order, and TFSafari order.
jamarmiller
I got my road rocket and Nitro Convoy / Override but missed out on Cosmos, but to be honest, if I dont get it my kids are going to be just fine with thier Zeta Toys one which is incredible. THis one would have just been back up. not going to fret too much about it. Its loss money to hasbro.
NexMix
Managed to preorder Override from Pulse before they locked preorders to premium members, so I'm glad I have that slightly more expensive safety net in case I don't find her in the wild
SlenderSphere
I SPAMMED THE CHECKOUT BECAUSE IT WAS STILL IN MY CART AND I GOT AN ORDER THROUGH !!!!

Q Prime
Pre-ordered a Road Rocket and Cosmos on Pulse, says they're shipping on the 1st of August.
AnonV3RG3
Yeah there's a reason Walmart tends to be the worst regarded place to pre order. Id like to say you'll get another crack at him legitimately but I can't say for certain. However I just want to throw this out here for next time because it's how I managed to secured Netflix bee and soundwave and how I managed Cosmos this time too.
Basically never expect to times Walmart said to be right because both times they went up before and people that track preorders on twitter like lets say Preternia or lightningfigpr puts links up before they're live and I just mash F5 maybe 5-10 minutes before the published time.
Now if we're being honest here no one should have to jump through these hoops just to buy some toys but unfortunately this is where we find ourselves, so regardless good luck to anyone still trying to get a Cosmos too
Optimalprimal
Got all of velocitron and terrorsaur!
