As has been mentioned in the "Argos" thread, getting uptodate Transformers in the UK is shamefully bad.

 

I saw a Shockwave in a local comic store like once......same goes for Blitzwing, now it's just Bulkhead and Starscream.

I've never seen Shockwave in stores and I saw Blitzwing at a Shopko once but their price for him was ridiculous (they wanted around $38 for him)

 

Nowadays all I see are the typical shelfwarmers (Lugnut, Snarl, Elite Guard BB, Ratchet, and Blackarachnia). The luckiest I got was finding a Blurr and Wreck-Gar at a Toys'rus.

Interestingly enough, there are a lot of Blurrs around here! Somestimes I feel like getting a second one because he's just that damned cool!

I've got 3 and I still wanna have more he's so damn nice. Don't know what I'd do with more but the urge is there :yay

I never really cared for Blurr's toy. I mean it's nice and all, and the robot mode is cool but its just so damn skinny.

Maybe thats why I like him so much... I am tall and slim...

Hasbro has rendered this thread as moot lol

I had no idea Shockwave, Blitzwing, and Thundercracker were so rare....I've seen all three sitting on the shelf at my local TRU for the longest time...

I dont think they are all that rare, but they certainly were harder to find then Lugnut or Grimlock. Still, they werent nearly as rare as Wreck-Gar (at least as far as my experience goes.)

 

And Thundercracker was likewise harder to find then others, except maybe Cliffjumper. I've NEVER seen activators CJ at retail.

I can still get almost any Animated Voyager or Deluxe in TRU.

 

The one I never saw was RB Magnus though
