Has Legacy Breakdown Come and Gone?

I honestly don?t understand how to navigate Hasbro?s distribution patterns anymore. I missed the preorders for Legacy Breakdown, and I?ve never seen him on shelves anywhere although his wave mates have apparently been released. Mass retail in my area is bone dry on any recent TF releases which makes gauging the current market difficult. Have I missed the boat on completing Menasor or is there hope I might be able to grab him online or in stores without resorting to aftermarket scalpers?

Looks like it's sold out everywhere. Maybe ask some of the independent stores if they are getting a Restock

Re: Has Legacy Breakdown Come and Gone?

I dont know in which region you are, but retails (Walmart) in my area are still stuck at Legacy wave 1 and I believe it’s similar all over the country. Maybe there is still hopes the other waves will pop up eventually, but we’re basically 4 waves behind now. As for online hobby stores, he’s pretty much sold out everywhere, so yeah, its not looking good. I personally haven’t received my preorder yet and it’s starting to get me nervous

Re: Has Legacy Breakdown Come and Gone?

Legacy has been rough. As others have noted, WM has been stuck on Legacy Wave 1 forever. Recently Deluxe Wave 3 showed up, and wave 2 core showed up once, but nothing else for any other size outside of wave 1.

At this point it seems it might make a brief appearance at WM but more likely it will be independent stores or Winners/discount chains.

So these are from US sites and they are pre-orders for this April. Hopefully that means there is some more stock coming for other sites.

I've dealt with Entertainment Earth one time and it was an okay experience. I have no experience with ChosenPrime. I usually pick USPS with tracking and I avoid DHL shipping as they charge what they call customs fee but really it's a brokerage fee that doesn't have Canadian customs paperwork on the package. Whatever you chose, I hope that you find that figure. Good luck!

Stay patient. Wave 4 has hardly started trickling out. Some GS locations are getting them out to the shelf.

Re: Has Legacy Breakdown Come and Gone?

I saw a single copy at the GameStop in Kingston back in January

Didn’t take it cause of a paint QA on his chest, but in hindsight I probably should have

The FOMO is real when completing an expensive combiner is on the line.

GS already got its breakdown shipment, it was in-store, and is now sold out. I doubt they?ll get more.

Re: Has Legacy Breakdown Come and Gone?

Got mine from Amazon.ca in early March but the box was messed up. Have been looking since then for better box but looks I am one of the lucky ones at this point.
