    Hi Folks,

    I don't know if this has been posted yet or not, but i received an e-mail from U-Toys in Singapore that they will start shipping some Revenge of the Fallen Toys in mid-march.

    See below
    1. Item description: Hasbro Transformers Movie 2 Voyager Class - Demolishor
    Estimate arrival date: Mid Mar 2009

    2. Item description: Hasbro Transformers Movie 2 Voyager Class - Optimus Prime
    Estimate arrival date: Mid Mar 2009

    3. Item description: Hasbro Transformers Movie 2 Cannon Blast Megatron
    Estimate arrival date: Mid Mar 2009


    4. Item description: Hasbro Transformers Movie 2 Electro Whip Jolt
    Estimate arrival date: Mid Mar 2009



    So are these "official releases" or otherwise. You decide! Either way looks like the lucky folks in Singapore will get their hands on these first from a non-ebay source.

    Maybe they want to go ahead and ship them right away to get the economy going.

    A toy in singapore selling any transformer toy two months before release date is very normal. It in no way impacts the U.S. street date. Even if the rotf figures start shipping in march they still have to go the big retailer distribution centers and be reshipped to the actual stores. Rotf will probably hit stores in april to give them time to stock up before putting them out for sale in may

    Singapore got a Universe version of the Bruticus and Superion Boxed set but America seems to be getting the same product but in ROTF packaging - so that is perhaps one reason they got them early - it makes more sense for them to be classics toys anyway as it matches the pre-existing Devastator set already produced as a Classics toy some years back.

    To those of you in the U.S.

    Go to your nearest K-Marts come april, chances are they'll put ROTF figs out to the shelves already.

    but Mid-March? naaah don't think so.
