New Argos Catalogue Time of Year - phantomfish - 07-20-2010 09:40 AM
So its almost the time of year for the new Argos catalogue to come out. Which inevitably means we might see some new TF's and there is always much speculation about the contents. TF@TM is usually one of the first with catalogue scans and product info. Last time saw only a minimal amount of new figures (Legends Devestator and MP Skywarp).
So what are peoples expectations for the new book? I would guess we will see Generations deluxes, Hunt for the Decepticons deluxes, voyagers and possibly leaders and also Powercore 2 packs and 5 packs. Possibly the odd curveball thrown in (Seacons would be a long long long shot!).
Any other ideas/news anyone?

I'd be happy with just Generations figures, but if they could throw in most of what the americans have had, I'd be a happy Sharp-O
Re: New Argos Catalogue Time of Year - iPrimus - 07-21-2010 08:26 AM
If they stock the following I'll be happy
HFTD Banzai-Tron
HFTD Hailstorm
HFTD Darkmount
HFTD Voyager Optimus Prime
HFTD Voyager Payload
HFTD Leader Starscream
WFC figures
and Power Core Combiners

Just picked up the new Argos book.
Not impressed that they have Battle Damage hooky prime but no Starscream. Looks like argos' toy buyer played it safe and ordered packs of a retooled figure they have stocked for over a year.
They do have the new HFTD Legends though. Red Rampage,Ravage
and Prime @ 4.99 on a 3 4 2 offer.

Well that blows.
Re: New Argos Catalogue Time of Year - Unitedbot - 07-23-2010 07:03 PM
They have the Voyagers but the pic is of ROTF Long haul. I doubt he will be availible but the code is different to the one used currently for ROTF voyagers. So maybe Seaspray,Ratchet and Payload. maybe.
The deluxe code is were the problem occurs. This is the same code as used by the ROTF deluxes. Therefore each Argos will have to clear the old stock before getting HFTD and Generations.
I hope I'm wrong though. The Generations line is great and so are some of the HFTD.

oooh the anticipation!
Any idea if the website will actually show specific voyagers instead of one picture with 'assortment' label?
Re: New Argos Catalogue Time of Year - Hob - 07-24-2010 08:58 AM
