I'm guessing we'll get the gacha arms microns at least. Still pretty good.

 

         

too stumped for words....

 

TFW!!!!!!!! shoping trips with the wife just got interesting........... if they get picked up by a major store. wouldnt shock me to see em pegged up in tescos petrol station like the minicons were a while back.

 

I hope for the kit form microns more to be honest but this is pretty cool, especially if the bulkhead knuckle comes over here.

 

Come on Canadian release.

 

Come on Hasbro Australia. Apparently you often release Takara exclusives. Don't start getting beaten by the UK.

In the words of Armada Megatron, I want the minicons. Well, Arm Microns.

 

I don't get it! Why not release all of these arms micron toys in wide release? Why only the Asian market? Makes no logical sense in business. The USA markets gets the boring versions of these toys. And hell the cartoon is an American made show!!!!!

It is so stupid to read about a "confusing rumor...that hasbro denys" on something that should be widely released.

Can someone explain the logic here? Seriously I really want to understand the mind set of the crazy decisions hasbro is making. Thanks!

 

Oh man, either make these available in the US, or at least have the UK ones be a cheap purchase! Hey, who knows? If this works out, maybe Hasbro will also take the ones that come from the larger Arms Micron figures (like Optimus and Megatron) and have those released as blind bags too!

 

It has happened before there was a time I saw UK TOMY and American Hasbro Zoids on the shelves at the same time in the UK

 

i bet Hasbro doesn't even bother to read this thread!

 

I know some folks here would definitely be interested in a stateside release... question is... would it sell well? Maybe they can test the waters by doing an US online-store only thing if that. Considering how kids readily lose accessories to a toy... I'd say they wouldn't care too much for these Microns.

 

no thanks.

i haven't liked a single one of these things. the robot modes aren't that great, there's really nothing to do with them.. especially the ones that look like prime or bulkhead..etc. and i'd rather have a weapon that actually looks like that characters weapon rather than a mini transformer that needs to take liberties because it has to transform.

i wouldn't mind getting a couple if they combined real well.. but they don't, the combinations just look like something that a fan figured out by accident.

i'm surprised hasbro hasn't released these here.. i mean, they look ridiculously cheep, no paint, not even assembled.. i bet they'd cost around $5, but they'd cost hasbro nearly nothing to produce.

 

Agreed, as do quite a few other things.

 

^^yes, but how would the casual collector react to the need to fix-up these AM's themselves? TBH and IMHO, even as a 'seasoned' GUNPLA bulider, I am having bruised knuckles and twisted fingers myself!   They are NOT, I repeat not for the casual non-hobby fixing people.  

 

Esdevium Games are a UK based distribution company that mainley deal with Comic book and miniature based products. They do import and repackage a lot of items so there is a very good chance that these are getting a release.

The only real high street store that they supply to is Waterstones, thats where they get all the Fantasy Flight games from. Also Forbidden Planet and Close Encounters, though they aint as common.

Another company that has an account with them is Voidsign Collectables, though they have not used them in a while. But I reckon I might start again ^.^

I'll give Esdevium a call later and see if I can get some confirmation for you all.

We gotta start somewhere!

 

Mr R?
How you been mate?
Still in MK?

Cheers,
Doug

 

  I suppose.  
Sometimes I swear fixing those little AM's can be a real pain, but in the end, it's all worth the minor injuries sustained!  

 

Yeah still in sunny MK.
All diff now though, moved, have a family etc.
How have you and yours been ?
Probably best to take this to PM ^.^

 

They'll be available to buy from this week.
