Re: Amazon.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion
If I wait for a deal the figure will become impossible to get.
If I pounce fast the figure will be plentiful and go on sale for significantly less than I paid (cough, Ark, cough).
And the rare time I get it right and snag a figure at retail price right at release AND it then becomes hard/expensive to get, I avoid opening it and enjoying it because "now it's worth so much sealed".

Personally, I get it if I want it, and if it goes on sale later, it goes on sale. If I'm not comfortable with the price, I wait, and if I miss out I miss out. I use to have FOMO about things, but now that I've accumulated so many figures, too many actually, missing out on that umpteenth version of a character doesn't matter as much. Oh no, I missed out on the new definitive version of Bumblebee. I'll just have to settle for last year's definitive version.
Now, I realize, there's always something new coming down the road that'll make me forget I missed out on something. Missed out on CW Skylynx. Hello Commander Skylinx. And now I have one less figure to put on the mountainous pile of for-sale figures I'm making.
Plus if you have patience, it all comes back around. If you really want a figure, you'll be able to find it eventually, and for a price you'll like. Remember back in the day when stuff like the Fansproject City Commander was going for $300-$400. Now, if you even still want it, it can be had for way cheaper.
I've been trying to justify the Ark for months, but the overall look of the bot and the underwhelming bang for buck feel I get from it personally, I'm just going to skip it, and hope for a thrift shop find down the road.
Happy New Year everyone

I did this with the Ark 3 times and just recently with Waspinator (saved $10) and the Jurassic Park set (saved $50).

I went with Gamestop on these instead. I picked up Pipes and Slammer today in-store. Lots of stores are getting them.
You can still preorder the 4 Studio Series figures on Gamestop's website:

Re: Amazon.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion
Someone had asked for listing for these a week or so ago. Most other places don't say until April for them to come out so this would be another of amazon.ca's preorders that looks like a out of stock item.

No Ravage listing though, on EB or Amazon, that I can see.
