Wilkinsons, bless them, now have the fore-sightedness to add Classic Deluxes & Titaniums to their shelves.
I was able to pick up Mirage for £7.99 ^_^ & saw Titanium Magnus & WWI Megs both for £12.99. There wasn't much stock, but I suppose we are fighting the general public for toys as well other collectors.
Happy hunting.

They seem to be selling the movie deluxes on their website too, at £9.99, but no idea which ones and no way of telling what you'll get.
By the way, there's already a Classics sightings thread in the G1 section. Not my place to nag, but there's a lot of clutter in the 'general' board these days.

What's you definition of news?
To me it's something you don't know about till you read it. Wave two Classics appearing in the UK & appearing in a place that isn't normally associated with TFs is news to me. This information was not obviously available anywhere on this forum, so it's news!

Typical - the two weeks I am off work in the summer. Guys just so you know I work at Wilkos and the Boys Toys layout you see in stores is now permanent. Stores should be able to get you Movie Legends, Deluxe Movie, Deluxe Classics and Titaniums for the time being, but the stores cant really order specific items, but can request in the special order field of the order form on the helpdesk computer - something like "Character "Ramjet" White/Burgandy Jet Plane" should be entered to try and get the right character. It seems its only DC2 stores that have had them which are supplied by the Magor distribution centre - ie everything South of Sutton Coldfield. Anything North of the West Midlands and East of the M42 are supplied by DC1 at Manton Wood, Worksop, and dont appear to be getting them ... YET. Hopefully as we approach xmas the sales of the movie toys in stores (which has been good, we did get jazz and co first I think) will have promtped the buyers to go for some of the other toys, and hopefully TransFormers will stay in the range through to next year... and knowing our buyers they will try to keep the prices down if they can  Now the moment I am back in work I am raiding our lower warehouse! |
