[Super_Megatron]

Thanks to StarwarsTF for reporting that the Toys R Us exclusive reissue Generation 1 Soundwave should be out on Canadian shelves along with the release of the Transformers Movie toys on June 2nd.

TRU employee RHansen confirms that many stores have already received their shipments of this item. Click here (http://www.cybertron.ca/boards/showthread.php?t=1968) to talk about this topic.

Sweet!

Keep forgetting this but what's the retail on Soundwave again?

[tilallr1]

Thanks for the update!

[RHansen]

actually bud it wasn't me who confirmed it, all i knew was that they were on their way. I don't work there no more sadly, I was forced to quit

[Benzo]

yay!! I've been waiting for this for a long time! :)

[StarwarsTF]

$39.99<--------------ouch
You know what, you get ravage and laserbeak with that so really thats a bargain.
Or is it?

[thomas maximus]

about freakin time

[Autovolt 127]

HELL YEAH! :D

[Mega_Zarak]

Finally, some great news.

[vectorsigma2]

phew!!

i was just about to overpay on ebay!

[zuffyprime]

whoa whoa whoa... RHansen, "forced to quit"... wtf... that doesn't sound good man, what happened?!:eek:

[Dinobot Swoop]

'Bout frickin' time it showed up. Just one thing bothers me tho'. Is the Canadian release to have both English and French on it? 'Cuz if it doesn't, I know a lot of TF fans (myself included) here in Quebec who are gonna be mighty dissapointed.

[General Tekno]

So, it's 39.99 now then?

Geez, they keep updating the price.

Ah, well. Still cheaper than getting it at my nearby collecting store.

[StarwarsTF]

Yep!!!!

[Paradigm-Shift Prime]

do you know when it changed from 34.99 to 39.99 SWTF?

[Paradigm-Shift Prime]

whoa whoa whoa... RHansen, "forced to quit"... wtf... that doesn't sound good man, what happened?!:eek:

Yeah that sucks dude. Dipping into the not to be released movie toys maybe?

[RHansen]

haha no it wasn't anything like that Paradigm, just reasons between me and the store director, I don't feel it necessary to get into.

But I'm much happier now :)

[zuffyprime]

sorry man, wasn't trying to pry,
glad you're happier now man:D

[Paradigm-Shift Prime]

sorry man, wasn't trying to pry,
glad you're happier now man:D

yeah same

[FreakNasty]

Would one of you fine TRU individuals mind posting up the SKU?

Thanks :)

[StarwarsTF]

Reports (from my TRU guy) have our friends to the west have already been selling/buying him boooo on the west coast! skn#507059. Oh yah to all the french TF fans sorry your SOL!!! For now. No soundwave yet...

[Cruellock]

Kind of expensive, but I guess since I always wanted a G1 Soundwave, I'll get it.

[grock35]

[Sokar]

I'd suggest checking your local TRU's as they appear to be putting them out early.

I picked up mine today

lucky you! I went to TRU today and they had nothing new.

[Mega_Zarak]

Expensive? please guys!
It's still cheaper than the Takara reissues, Soundwave and Soundblaster. The retail price for the Takara reissues when they first came out were about 50$US and it was when the 1 US$ was about 1.60$CAD.

[Paradigm-Shift Prime]

Here, Sokar found him in Alberta:

Is it too late to flip that coin? ;)

[BadJeff]

Only if we can flip for your movie Leader Prime;)

I wonder if TRU would consider putting a limit of one or two per custumer per day on Soundwave so more people would have a chance at it.
If they didn't order lots I could see them getting sold out very quickly, with most ending up in the hands of Flea market dealers and the like. I know some local dealers would strip the shelves given the chance.

[mr_lude2000]

well...to offset these scalpers i say we buy them up and re-sell back to each other for COST-only.

thats what i'm gonna do if i can get to them first.

so in other words...
if anyone in calgary sees them before me, can you get me one pls:) i'll do the same if i am able to:)

I'm game for this! We should set up a thread where we put up our shopping lists so if any local guys find extras we can scoop them up.

[BadJeff]

Totally agree. I hate scalpers but nave no problems at all to "hook a brother up". Also, as some of you may have noticed, my employment gives me the flexibility to do some serious hunting when needed.
