Try to relax, Dave, I'm sure we can working everything out if we just think things through carefully.

Seems a bit weird these two have arrived without any news about others. Is this a wave of two Deluxes? Surely not.
£30 is too much for those. I'm sure Smyths will get them in time. Where they'll also be too much. I'm sure in time they'll be discounted in Smyths.

We've known the rest of the case for a while. It's w1 repacks, not Cosmos.
Can't find the post with the proportions but my memory and the photo when the case was found suggests Road Rocket, Clampdown & Burnout

It looks a lot better than what we got, but not better enough to justify buying it again.

Yes, I’d been hoping that these might appear in Singapore whilst we’re out here, since stuff does have a habit of appearing here early. Alas not, so far, but on the other hand you’re probably right about the sales, so it’ll be better to wait… |

I think you're probably right there. They could have made this nailed on by putting a Targetmaster partner in with him, missed opportunity. Although I suppose we've got Battlemaster Firedrive.

A TM Hot Rod will be later. How else to make us buy it three times?

As an aside, I did notice that the Legacy W3 deluxes are back to £21.99 as their starting price in Smyths. The £23.99 price point only lasted for W2. I wonder if that's due to a wholesale price change or that they found sales really dipped on £24 deluxes.

They finally got some Velocitron wave 1 and Legacy wave 2 on the shelves in Smyth’s here in Germany, but €34 a pop is a big nope from me.

Paint it Pink/Magenta. Or Black. I see a Hot Rod and I want to paint it black… But aye, had we known this was coming I might not have bothered with the Studio Series version. As it is, it’s nice, but no. Unless they do it again in hot pink with a Targetmaster. But that’s never happening. |

It's surprising they're using Override instead of Nitro Convoy

Scourge instead of Black Convoy too.
Japan's been using western names last few years
