And how early are we looking at here?

Post above (quoted) indicates what's in the wave.

Although i heard the original release date was Nov1 so technically anything earlier is going to have to be next week already because anything later is just the time they had previously stated.

So is it *that* much more of an improvement? I kind of was hoping to give my wallet a rest but.... oh well.

If it were me. I'd show her who's boss. Put down my foot and say, "I WILL... take your suggestion under advisement, dear."

Finally something to look forward to.

I know, I was starting to get sick of seeing nothing but Movie Bumlebees and Deluxe Primes on the shelf.

.... This is no longer a board about TF:P First edition toys, it is about the things Vancouver men go through o.o ... Also it seems like we're all Asian...

Anywho, Oh yay, now I have a reason to keep my SDCC Matrix Prime MISB! I'm sure finding Voyager Prime shouldn't be a big problem...

Paradigm-Shift Prime · 10-21-2011, 10:32 PM

Sweet!

Finally something to look forward to at retail indeed.

The BB mold is quite nice.

I bet we are looking at a $34.99-39.99 price tag on the Entertainment pack though, knowing TRU and with the PVCs in there to add more content to the pack than 2 deluxes (TRU usually charges 29.99 for 2 deluxe two packs).

10th generation Canadian -half- South American. (me)

does anyone know if a 3rd Party is working of TFP stuff yet? I'd really like a set of arm blasters for arcee.

the source stated "Available at Toys R Us Canada exclusively the items that will hit in the next few weeks are the Transformers Prime First Edition Deluxe Figures and the Prime First Edition Entertainment Pack."

Does that mean we're only getting the Deluxe class and the Entertainment Pack for the meantime, and have to wait a while longer for the Voyagers?

Onslaught · 10-21-2011, 11:57 PM

Hm, I was going to get everything, but I may not now. It seems like Bumblebee at least is going to get some sort of little revision done, where among other possible things he has 2 of his arm guns (I don't get why the 1st edition one only has 1 arm gun). At least he had 2 of them when he was displayed at NYCC. Can anyone confirm what is with that?

Arcee looks great though, and no sign of revisions with her, though I wouldn't be opposed to a Commander Arcee for some better scaling.

Starscream looks good, but he's short and the Voyager looks really good. So I'll probably just wait for that one.

I'll probably get the Enterainment Pack. It's cool to get the humans and both deluxes look pretty good. Megatron in particular is looking quite nice, and there's no sign yet of another larger Megatron (though it's a given there will eventually be one, though maybe he'll get a new form in season 2 and they'll make a figure based on that?). Now that they got the main 3 humans done though, they should also make June and Fowler.

Oh, and if Optimus and Bulkhead are in the First Edition, they will be bought. Bulkhead on sight. I think there'll be enough Optimus to wait for a sale.

Given the fact that TF:P hasn't aired anywhere other than North America, and where most 3rd party company are located in Asian, I think we're gonna have to wait a bit to see if we get some add-ons. Though I wouldn't be surprised if Venksta has something planned.

Also, good job on not being an Asian! Because Richmond and Vancouver's being infested by people of my kind.
