Thanks to 2005 Boards member AcidStormReflux for giving us the heads up of his sighting of the new Transformers Legacy: Evolution Wave 4 Voyager Tarn at UK retail.
Tarn was spotted at Forbidden Planet International at Middlesbrough. His wave partner Leo Prime hasn’t been found yet, so it may be a solid case.
Happy hunting!

For example my tarn last week with Leo prime and then 3 days later the two Street fighter power Rangers to the morphed Ryu and chun-li so that\'s £150 all together roughly

Is anyone getting burnout well it wise like have a reasonably healthy budget for toys and Transformers but it kept announcing stuff and not releasing it and then put wild release dates like July 2023 right after they release something and now everything\'s coming all at once and if you collect more than one line from hasbro well good luck I buy nearly all the Transformers some g.i. Joe and most of power Rangers and it\'s getting pretty hectic at the moment.
I mean I\'d space them out more but then they disappear off the shelves and never to be seen again some of them

I was literally about to order Hotshot when i realized no Jolt

Man, my local stores only started putting Jhiaxus on the shelves about a month ago….

I would say writing this much:

screams “triggered” more than any of the couple-sentence complaints on this thread. So I’ll just repost this; hope it’s not too triggering:
“What a ridiculously stupid hill everyone has chosen to die on. Were we calling Kingdom deluxes WFC wave 8? Does anyone announce toy lines based on Hasbro’s retail code? “Oh boy #F2990 is out in stores!!”
It’s a new year with new line with a new name and a new gimmick. To use Hasbro’s internal retailing product code instead of the nomenclature advertised to the consumer is a level of pedantry only possible on this site.”

It’s….Cyberverse. Do we really have to play dumb here? Lol Why would people care nearly as much? I didn’t even know that happened, because myself and most adult collectors don’t collect the Cyberverse kid’s tv show toy line.
Not to say you can’t happily enjoy buying those, but this is just the reality of most adult collectors.

Where were you people when the Cyberverse Deluxes were persistently being referred to as "Cyberverse Deluxe Build-a-Figure" regardless of whether they included a BAF piece or not?
TFfangeek
It, somewhat bittersweetly, means that you get the most "bang for your buck" buying Needlenose, since his two Targetmasters mean you buy 3 Transformers for the price of one deluxe figure. This is why I am passing on Hot Shot, since he lacks his Mini-con partner Jolt.
Skyquake21
I was thinking of picking up Needlenose, because the two Targetmasters make for a really good deal, retail wise. Then it dawned on me that shouldnt EVERY deluxe have two targetmasters with that logic, in this economy?
i digress, but like, damn. Id be more inclined to collect if that were the case.
despicablebhao
hey would you mind asking bmac if there are plans to release skywarp with his guns in a package refresh?
YoungPrime
I guess this means that I can estimate Tarn starting to show up in the US the early to middle part of February then.
……Unless Amazon throws us another curveball for this wave.
jtanimator
Plenty of people have already said it, but I\'ll reiterate so we can stop making this confusing mistake: Its either Legacy: Wave 4 or Legacy: Evolution Wave 1. NOT both.
Ottertron
They are solid cases of each character. I was in FP Manchester just before closing today and they had two boxes each of Tarn and Lio Convoy ready to go out tomorrow.

Retailers are probably just doing what Hasbro has officialy been doing with the Studio Series line, and just counting the new subline as the next wave of the entire mainline/series.

I can't wait to see the first wave of 2024, otherwise known as "Legacy wave 8"
Cardion
I think the use of Wave 4 versus Wave 1 is probably a retail thing to make it easier for corporate buyers to understand. If end consumers (us) prefer to think of it as Wave 1, I don\'t think there\'s any reason we can\'t think of it that way. Both things can be true.

I love how this triggers so many people.

Ah nice. I have him on the way from Pulse in the UK.
Plus its Evo wave 1, its been said by Bmac the marketing guy. Its not Legacy wave 4, but it is the forth wave under the legacy banner as a whole just like WFC was Siege, Earthrise and Kingdom, this is Legacy, Evolution and whatever the 3rd one will beView attachment 29792428
