I was expecting to go into a toy event. I wasn't expecting it to be a mob frenzy of people snatching primes left and right  I feel somewhat sorry for romhel and co, they probably were a bit pissed at said behavior. Also, I was supposed to stay for the later part of the show/event, but work called, so I wasn't able to grab me a sideswipe and fallen  |

A warning for those who will get ROTF Leader Class Prime. Supposedly, there's a weak spot in the chest lock? Quinjester over at RobotJapan broke his due to the weak joint. He recommends carving these grooves into the chest to help minimize the lock from breaking.  Gold |

Gold ...wow, just wow Also, yeah, that chest piece is kinda hard to remove, so that is a VERY good suggestion, thanks ;D Also, I wasn't able to attend the whole event(I left at 2-2:30), but some ppl are saying they released skids? Also, did any stocks of sideswipe, mudflap and the fallen get released? |

With the recently held rotf launch, they sure know what items that are hot and considered popular. Poor megatron and the others, seems they didn't get much attention just like LC prime, sideswipe, soundwave, and others did.

even rotf ironhide wasn't a hit. At the opening of the event, people were at a mad rush to get LC prime,sideswipe,sideways. I congratulate the organizers for keeping their cool.

A weird thing happened to me at the rotf launch. While I was looking around, a lady was holding a rotf sideways and a LC rotf prime. All of a sudden, she just dropped it at the toy rack and left. Without a second thought, i just grabbed those two items, and paid them, for fear that someone might get them. Thank the toy god |

Possible Leader Class Starscream? tformers.com/article.php?sid=11545&ss=asBTW for folks who didn't notice it, ROTF Voyager Starscream is practically a whole new toy. Youtube reviews show a different transformation, and it's smaller and leaner looking compared to the first Starscream, most reviewers recommend getting Prime, Sideswipe and Starscream as their top picks for the line so far. Soundwave and Bumblebee, Sideways are abundant at Trinoma TRU according to a friend who's there right now. Sideswipe is selling like crazy, even kids are begging their parents for one. Sigh... I'm surprised that Skids and Chromia made it out. No word yet on Wheelie? Hehe, folks already know Ironhide repaint is inaccurate (promo pics of Ironhide in vehicle mode in the desert show him still in black, and the desert is the final battle setting for TF2). Gold |

Apparently the toy launch for the malls was delayed?
I was waiting for the items to arrive at Southmall(since I wasn't able to get me skids, Sideswipe and The Fallen) and after like 2 hours of waiting they suddenly tell me the release will be tomorrow(monday). I was like, WHAT.
