    No DVD for the int'l types. IP legalities suck.

    I do like OP and Megs in each other's faces like that though.

    Oh, joy. First I'm not allowed to enter the caption contest, now I get no DVD in my Robotmasters Prime knock-off two pack. Hooray for living in the British Empire!

    Those new Minicons look great. I can't wait to find both the Prime/Megs set and the Minicons!

    The Megatron/Prime set doesen't have the usual '!' that dumbs down most Euro release TF packaging these days.

    I wonder if it's made for a speciffic store - perhaps a TRU UK exclusive?

    I'm still not sure about the VS set. Classics Prime and Megatron are the ultimate Prime and Megatron as far as I'm concerned, I'm not sure that it's necessary for me to get these. It would've helped if the DVD had some new material.

    They need to retire "Firebot" for God's sake.

    Huzzah, Classics Prime + Megastorm, these are deluxes arent they?

    If so, my Classics collection will be made up of only Deluxes, unless I find Megs cheap. Prime + Jetfire dont do anything for me.

    i would love to pick the 2-pack up. unfortunately, my wal-mart only got 1 FRIGGIN case of classics. when i asked about them, they had no idea what i was talking about!

    they said wait for new mods in a few days. its been about a week, all i see is the rollback display for Cybertron.

    We don't even have the titanium figures or the Attatix sets yet!

    They're deluxe-sized, so probably close to equal in height to Starscream or Rodimus.

    knightwing, the two-pack is still a few months from release, so your hunt is a waste of time at the moment.

    I'm liking that the 2 pack of Prime and Megs is going to be relased over here, but I might pick up the US version as it'll have the DVD. And I'm a sucker for extras in packaging :(

    Is that two pack an exclusive or general release?

    In the US, the two-pack will be a general release for Spring 2006. It will include a DVD that's not in this international version.

    I think Meg looks BETTER than Prime now. Without the paint & windscreen, it seems that Prime is NAKED??! :D

    I'd imagine that the reason there is no DVD is the fact that we have different DVD regions over here.
    Still, nice to see they will make it to the UK (and here too, hopefully). My son will like them, the jurys still out as far as I'm concerned.
