Hope the local Argos will have any at all by the time I can get round to buying them.  The catalogue so far as shown that they'll be getitng some in, but will they?  If anyone here finds out that Argos is selling new TF's at last in the Grampian area, then I would love to know.

probably your best bet then tony is to go to argos.co.uk and get them to send stuff to your nearest store

If they'll listen, I'll see what I can do.  I'll be having a look into my local Argos as soon as I have enough money for a TF or two after paying the bills.  I'll post if I have any luck.

Just to tell people, the micromaster train sets are lucky dip.

 

Somebody over at tfnet bought the bunch in hoping to get a complete combiner, ended up with 2 doubles me thinks and missing swindle(?) i think.

 

Basically if yours going to buy these make sure to view them :P

Im pretty sure Superion is next. Id warn against the lucky dip even though it is "cheaper"

looks like when getting the trainbots there may be alot of trading for the needed pieces

I got Sideways today from Argos so I was wrong - Smyths don't have the full Wave 1 in. They don't have any of the £9.99 price-point items.

Well, not having any Cybertron toys I just went for the lucky dip approach and bout a deluxe from Argos.

 

Ended up with Sideways.

 

While the catalogue shows Hot Shot, the mini-catalogue thing that comes in the toy doesn't. According to that, he three language catalogue shows Starscream, Scorponok, Jetfire, Scourge, Megatron, Prime, Wreckloose, Snarl, Sideways, Undermime, Brakedown, Backstop, Leobreaker, Evac, Mudflap, Armorhide and the car team as well as mentioning a few others in the promo stuff. But no mention of Hot Shot or some of the other Wave 1s. Weird.

it seems to depend on which planet map you get as to what toys are shown as so far i have the earth map i got with Crumplezone and the speedia map (with Jetfire) and apart from a few that are the same they show different figures

it seems to depend on which planet map you get as to what toys are shown .

The maps seem to be no guarantee of what will be available, looks like they just took the standard maps and changed the languages. For example; The only European release of Megatron has been in Italy, but none the less each country in Europe has received maps showing Megatron, IIRC they're printed with something along the lines of 'Not all toys are avaiable in each country' or the like.
