Re: Who is the hardest POTP, CW and TR figure to find?

CW
obvs Quickslinger & BrakeNeck
Saw everyone else in healthy quantities at retail, though I only started around 3rd wave and backfilled older figs through cons & comic shops

TR
obvs Ramhorn, only one I ever saw was the one I bought @ TFCon 2017 from CapturedPrey
wave 4 deluxes' initial release was pretty flash-in-the-pan; Krok&Quake got reissued but Kup, Perceptor and Topspin were tough to find, thanks be I found all five in a Gatineau WM, ad matched to a TRU flyer, was a good day
Saw enough of all the others

POTP
RodimusUnicronus, only one I ever saw at retail was the one I bought, though saw one at CMDstore's booth at an Ottawa con
also Novastar, again only one I ever saw at retail, I snapped up right away

All the CW & TR box sets I saw often enough when they were out (except the TR intelligence & fireblast sets ofc)

Only ever saw this at Target and it's gone from their website.

This isn't part of the official line but if you want a Rumble and gold Buzzsaw to go with Ravage, Frenzy and Lazerbeak....

Re: Who is the hardest POTP, CW and TR figure to find?

For CW I Never found SkyLynx at retail in my area, I bought him from a woman on Kijiji for $35.
CW Megs I ordered from Amazon for $42 but I did see him at retail once or twice.
All the other CW TF's Waves I had no problem finding at TRU or at WalMart.
TR I had to order Brainstorm from the Walgreen's site for me and a couple of others. I ordered Arcee from the Hasbro Toy Shop and got Grotusque weeks before TRU.Com in the U.S. folded. Had to order Ramhorn from BBTS because like everyone else he never showed at retail. Lucky enough to get Slugslinger at TRU and all the others there or at WalMart.
POTP I never found Rodimus Unicronus anywhere at retail so I ordered him from Amazon.com as well as the other 3 Amazon exclusives Blast Off, Punch/Counterpunch and Repugnus not knowing they'd show up on the Canadian site and for real cheap around Boxing day last year too...$12 for Blast off and $10 for Repugnus is what I remember them going down to. Also lucky enough to get Throne of the Primes Primal from Hasbro Toy Shop last year and the Bumblebee Cassette pack above from Target.com. Also had no trouble getting EB Exclusive Deluxe Wreck-gar as he was plentiful.
Now if only the Siege Leaders Magnus and Shockwave would show up, I have yet to see them anywhere in my area. Even EB is always sold out. Oh well, I can wait.

They do here. But they either have garbage or stuff I've never seen. More of the former. At one Co-op last year, I got the Evergreen Legends sized wave which I've never seen anywhere before.

Whatever stock they have, it is guaranteed to be over-priced. The Cyberverse Deluxes are $24.99.

I have a MISB WFC Amazon exclusive Greenlight with the case box that it came in from Amazon and I would like to do cash and trade for a MISB transformer that I am looking for and I can send pics. I would prefer a local sale in the Metro Vancouver area.

I really doubt it's worth that asking price.
