    Bah. No normal Magnus yet but we get the fugly repaint instead? This is why I dislike repaints, especially within the same line as it means things get shunted off sooner than they should in favour of repaints of them.
    Oh well, just have to look elsewhere than the shops here for the normal Magnus. No wonder UK sales suffer when stuff like this forces people to import or whatever.

    So, apart from these, we ain't getting diddly squat in regards to Animated (ie Shockwave, the next lot of deluxes, etc)?

    Red did say that he's still waiting on another email form hasbro about the other waves.

    And argos have a pic of blurr in the new catalogue, so i think its safe to assume where getting him and his wave.

    Further update on the Roadbuster, Safeguard etc, they are currently scheduled for UK release at the beginning of April.

    As it stands we're not currently set to see Ultra Magnus in his original colours this side of the pond :(

    Catalogues have been wrong before, though I hope that is not the case.

    HaHa I was wondering how long it would take before that came out. Very disappointed with Hasbro UK, not the first time though.
