Amazon.ca has the next round of figures (Shipwreck, Wetsuit etc.) up for pre order. $35.99.  A dollar more than the last pre-orders.

Really looking forward to this wave, Scrap-Iron was one of my favourite classic figures.   Rock-n-Roll adds another to the original 13, with a fresh update that isn't a simple upsizing of the original line.

Waiting for my pre-order from amazon.  Looking forward to them regardless of how ugly they may be.

Agreed - I have no interest in the Cobra Island Roadblock that is still sitting at discount prices.

Once again, thanks for sharing.  Sucks about the bubble adhesive.  I look forward to your views on the the last two figures.

I stepped away from posting for a period of time, but always lurked.  Never been a fan of FaceBook.

I have picked up both the HISS tank and the awe striker - The carded figures are a fun, and in vehicle mode, Megatron and BB are great. The interior of the HISS tank has more detail than the original!  However as far as the robot mode - they are pretty flimsy transformers with lots of hollow gappy parts.

TRU has the classified series on sale - $38.17 - still too much money, but better than the regular $45!
The PP Bat and Viper are also available for shipping.

I wish for fewer exclusives - paying to ship anything out of the US is cost prohibitive.  And TRU prices are insane.

Zarana, Dusty and a CG arrived from Amazon this week.   Wow Zarana I think just moved into my fav figure of this line.
All three had no problem with stuck/stiff joints,  Hasbro might finally have the kinks worked out.

I totally agree, there hasn't been a "deluxe" figure that is worth more than $60.  If they are aiming for this higher price point, I want swappable heads/hands/ and painted accessories.  I also think too many "exclusives" kill a line.
