    Nice find man! I passed on him here in Canada because I had the Takara version and pre ordered the Encore one. I really like the pop up packaging.

    Aargh! I've just ordered an encore version from HLJ. If he's comming to the Netherlands, I'll go mad. This one has Ravage.

    I was surprised I payed so little for him. After looking on the internet for a while I had seen him up for £30 - £40 + postage. Nice little surprise after I had foolishly been hoping to find an 08 Bumblebee :(

    Ones in shops like Forbidden Planet and Toyz and Gamez (where I've also seen him) are american imports (hence the £50 price tag). This is an official UK release and so is far cheaper.

    It seem the UK is getting better distribution lately.

    And big news considering that the last official UK reissues were 2 years behind the US.

    Me and a friend snapped up one each at the TRU in Leicester, for the reasonable price of £25. They have quite a few in stock, for anyone else in the area!
