Re: GameStop.ca (formerly EB Games) Transformers Sightings and discussion

I got the call from my GS today for the pre-orders for Wreckers Spindle/Impactor, Springer, Twintwist, Vintage BW Tigatron, and Scorponok. Only reserved Twintwist and it sounds like they'll have him late November/Early December.



I don't yet have a WFC Impactor yet, is this decent version to get or should I just splurge for a Netflix one? I think there are a few available to me. Spindle also seems cool. I do like the fossilizors and seeing what abominations I can create with them.

Good to know about wrecker Springer. It’ll be cheaper than on amazon.

Sucks that they don’t have Shattered Glass wave 2 figures. I would have bought a second Blaster for cheaper and without the comic. I recently lost my Rewind tapebot, and For the life of me I can’t find it.

I have the original release and the 3-pack one, and without questions, the one from the 3-pack with the Spartan helmet is the better looking one by a mile, and that also includes the "Wreckers" version that just looks bad to me.

BUT, that said, Impactor is one of the worse figures for gaps, with the legs so empty that it's just really bad, just moving them you can see them bend/twist, so I highly recommend the investment of the gap filler kit, with the better shoulder cannon. his kit elevates this figure to being a definitive version for me.

My first one I simply filled with yellow hot glue and painted just so that I had something in the legs and didn't want to spend for the kit twice. (and it ends up looking like battle damage anyways)

Re: GameStop.ca (formerly EB Games) Transformers Sightings and discussion

These were zero dollar preorders according to the rep and they only mentioned it to me when I was there because they had received the email saying these POs opened yesterday.

I only had the SKU for the PO I made since I was missing it from Amazon. If someone calls your GS and mentions Transformers and Wrecker, they should find it in their system.

No idea what the release date is, but GS seems to be able to grab exclusives from other retailers (except TRU?) months after the fact.

I was told early November for Springer, and late November for Twin Twist.
