Try ebgames. Though he's not available to ship to home right now I got mine in store with edge discount for $35 which was not too bad.

Became a moot point inbetween; listing is now 3rd party seller only, guess Amazon's own stock got picked clean while we were talking, lol

I got another "still no idea when you will get your order for both Prowlhide and Dirgejet two packs" email. Is there still hope that these get reissued and fulfilled? Anyone have any more inside scoops?

I was never a huge fan of Hotrod, but I jumped on this as fast as I can given he's pretty much sold out everywhere and I have never seen any SS86 outside of Grimlock in stores.

I got my coneheads email about a week ago. I suppose if they haven't outright cancelled it there is hope. There are rumours they may produce them in April but no confirmation that I'm aware of. I got prowlhide last December so I have no idea about another run on them.

The Thrust & Dirge set popped up a few days ago and is in-stock on Robotoybase (affiliated with Tony / chimungmung, who has always been awesome with selling)

https://robotoybase.com/index.php?ro...roduct_id=6119

From this, I imagine that Amazon will eventually get them in stock.

If you can't wait, it's about $150 USD from robotoybase and shipping is likely to run you another $50 USD. (I recently placed an order for some 3P figures. Only EMS was/is available).

Lol, that's robbery at that price. If it's popping up in Asia, then we're bound to get it soon. These are made for the North American market. Patience is key here and it will save you a ton of money.

Do you think they will be made available for sale, or just to fill the preorders?

I can't imagine them only getting just enough to fulfill the preorders -- they will likely have extra. Unfortunately, scalpers are also likely to act on acquiring as many as they can.

Yeah. These aren't like the Amazon siege exclusives, these are four key characters with no filler, vs only Skywarp in the Siege one. I can't imagine they will hang in stock for long, if they ever do...

I gave up on IH and Prowl ever coming back and bought at 2x the price in the USA... And bought Dirge and Ramjet in Japan for a 2x price as well... Better than the 3x-4x price on e-bay... If I ever get my Amazon.ca preorder for D+R (I+P was cancelled) I guess I can try and recoup on e-bay...
