    I wonder if toysrus.com will get these in. They seem to have removed all but three Universe toys from their online store.

    ...the HELL??? Since when is the US the last one to get things like this?? Can't feel too bad, as the poor chaps in the UK get screwed over on so many figures...

    What the heck?!

    Okay, I need to get to a TRU and find me a Darkwing. Or find someone going to a TRU with a Darkwing to get me one.

    Wow, I didn't actually realize these weren't out in the US yet. Would have made a bigger deal out of it myself if I'd known!

    (I only got Darkwing, who really is quite lovely. I found a Silverbolt for the first time about two weeks ago, but passed on him in what I ASSMED was a vain hope that Darkwing would turn up months from now. Imagine the surprise!)

    Good for those in the U.K., but not so good for those here in the U.S. since this kind of suggests they may not get released here.

    When was the last time exclusive figures showed up in both Canada AND the U.K. before hitting the states?

    Maybe I'm just being paranoid...

    According to a TRU employee who posted in a Darkwing/Countdown thread some time ago, they'll be released in the U.S. in April.
