    just a heads up. my local shop showed me a retailers pre order checklist which included sdcc alt rodimus, slated for a 20th july release. so watch out for those in hand auctions on ebay from around this here parts.

    FYI, target/walmart/sdcc exclusives are only real exclusives if your in america/europe. its seems that out here in the far east, the regional distributors sell em, most notoriously apparent from last years SDCC ex. (we got the ex. SW fig too.)

    they really shouldn't be exclusives in Europe as well

    thats just rubbing it in our faces that we don't even get entire lines anyway let alone exclusives

    I think I got my Alt Nemesis Prime from a seller over there. Through ebay, came to just a bit over UK retail price for Alts (inc p+p)

    No huge surprises, but it's nice to have it more or less confirmed that it's not going to be too hard to get a hold of.





    We don't want solutions. We just want to complain!

    Yeah, but that's because of the dramas last year with their system.

    If I remember correctly, the CLUB said it wouldn't be available on their site due to last year's problems. HTS is planning to have it, as I understand. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong on that.

    So, does this mean that it will be pretty easy/cheap to get one then in the US? I've never been a fan of scalpers, so I refuse to pay outrageous prices from people that went to the convention but don't care anything about the toys other than a way to make some quick cash. I had no clue HTS was planning to sell them either.

    Ugh, I wish some hard facts about whether or not HTS would carry this guy would come out.
