Yeah man, I was just over there today and saw nothing...however, the dotm was bare as well. Like maybe 3-4 figures for walmart and target?
And from this point, wait it out. Its about a week and half until they are out.

The US sites says they are in TRU's stores now as of two days ago. went there yesterday (TRU in Amherst NY) and they had the Botshots (Just 3 OP's and 4 Bees) and 2 CV's 1 Ratchet, 1 Bee. That's it. DOTM selection down way much. Asked the dude working there and he said that is all they got in the shipment. Other then that haven't seen them anywhere else in Buffalo or Tonawanda

Well that saves me from visiting one TRU tomorrow. Going to hit two more in that area tomorrow. Hopefully have some luck. We will see.

Just got around to opening up Soundwave. I dunno. You would think that they could at least put one decepticon symbol on him. He is pretty accurate to the show, but scale wise .
I really think that Hasbro should hire an actual transformer fan/collector as an advisor. These mistakes get me so frustrated. Along the lines of lack of paint on Voyager Megatron.
I guess that it is all about business and thier target market is children and children do not care about scale and detail.

His height can be fixed by pulling down his legs down a little. If you watched Peaugh review of it, he will show you a way to fix his head

You're worried about scale in a Transformers toyline. Seriously, as was stated, Peaugh seems to have figured out a way to make him appear taller. I don't think it'd bother me that much anyway. This is Hasbro we're talking about, the company that took RotF Wheelie, an RC Car and made him a deluxe who towers over Sideswipe and Bumblebee.

Scale is useless in TFs and has been since day one.

This. Also, a fan advisor wouldn't help much. Removal of paint and shrinking figures has to do with the economy and everything in China getting more expensive very quickly. It's beyond Hasbro's control. All companies dealing with chinese factories are feeling the crunch. The alternative is paying more for figures.

This scale issue reminds me of the scale issue the Play Arts KAI has. Even some lines of the figmas have a scale issue between series.

Just got a notification from TRU Canada saying that my order is being processed, Wheeljack has been located in warehouse and Soundwave is on backorder.
