But I do hope his wave shows up soon. I tempted to buy another just for his vehicle mode.

I was at my TRU a week ago looking at the TF things. I ran into an associate there and they said that Monday was the day for the new transformers as well, so maybe that guy is right....I can only hope so!

Well, so for now let's just keep our fingers crossed and hope that it'll come out asap.

And mine from work. Hey, it may be in the opposite direction and takes 15 mins to get there, but hey, whats a half hour drive before work?
Luckily for me, I don't have work until 4:00 in the afternoon, so I have mostly all day to go and get him, though I'm going at 10:00 am when they open.

Finally owning one, I really don't see how people can break this toy so easily. Automorph works very good on this guy and the instuctions are clear. Maybe I'm just lucky.

I went to TRU and Target at lunch and didn't see any Wave 4 deluxes.
Target had the 3-pack of Titaniums (Protoform, Truck and movie Optimus).

I checked my local Wal-Mart today and they had restocked with the current wave, nothing new. I grabbed Swindle though, the only deluxe that I had yet to pick up.

Powerglide fab frenzy, that things even more fugly than the bot design! i'm gonna pick up the robot replica version, it might not tf, but it's soooooooooooooo much better than the fab version and the one that comes with barricade (yay barricade will get his chest back!!!!).
i dunno why i'm being so Outback about getting the movie cast as i've NEVER been this way before, but i must have them all O_O. i even want SS, the one movie bot i couldn't stand. he just looks sooooooooo kick ass in the trailers. ah well thats the way it goes, at least i can say no to multiples (that includes voyager prime & megs as i've already got leader prime and will have leader megs eventaully). of course theres an acception to every rule (i gotta have leader brawl)

I say "rumor-ish" - since it has cropped up in a number of different place, there could be a grain of truth to it.

but even then, if you're getting the new bumblebee, you're willing to take the chance on the 14th right?

Well, I got an email from BBTS today and they listed the following for TF movie merch.
QUOTE
TRANSFORMERS MOVIE - WAVE 2: Late friday night we'll be listing a big batch of new Transformer Movie figures! We can't give specifics yet, but these new items will be available: 4 new Voyagers, 5 new Deluxe, 6 new Movie Robot Replicas, 8 New Robot Hero 2-packs, 5 Transformers T.E.C.H., 2 Unleashed, 1 Leader and much more!
So if BBTS is getting 5 new deluxes this Friday night, then I'm betting that we'll be seeing plenty of proof that July 14 is the official street date for the next wave of figures, which should include, Arcee, Long Arm, and of course '08 Bumblebee

Digital Toys also has an auction for Bumblebee right now, in hand. Says the next wave ships on the 20th.

Well, I'm holding to the July 14 date. Besides, I'd much prefer to buy the inidividual Camaro Concept BB than the two-pack one that comes with *shudders* Voyager Prime. I'd be wasting money.

Jul 11 2007, 12:46 PM
Its no doubt a rumar, i know this because its not even on the actual Hasbro site yet for some odd reason, also on TRU it doesn't have it listed BUT it has the Ultimate figure listed and that doesn't even come out untill september, all i know is its a random date that probably won't be confirmed
xentar
Jul 11 2007, 05:57 PM
although the 08 BB was available here since June 9..... he's already been sold out in all our local malls and hobby shops since the TF movie started in our cinemas last june 28...
there's a lot of collectors here who is still waiting for his restocks... hopefully very soon...

I got mine today, and I have to say that it's the best one among all of the Deluxe movie toys. The Automorph features on the legs and chest are brilliantly engineered. It may not be 100% true to the film version, but it looks way better than the old Camaro version.

Jul 12 2007, 10:23 AM
I just called the owner of whitewizardtoys.com They say its coming out in augest for America, i said he was probably thinking about the ultimate but he says the small $10 one... i think BBTS is just getting direct imports, and since the 2008 camaro bumblebee is sold out there but not in a set
http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product...amp;mode=retailThat actually has two of the bumblebee's and its not for a preorder sold out, i ordered that so i can get the bumblebee and ALOT more guys without spending $80 on just one bumblebee on ebay, i think it will still be coming out in stores since areaseven got it and hes in America but i doubt itl be as soon as we thought...

Jul 12 2007, 02:56 PM
