    Mods, please delete if not relevant or discussed before.

    Did I miss something ? Didn't Hasbro said that G1 Insecticons & G1 Perceptor would be out in September? Well, we are already in October and I didn't see any exclusive TRU Re-issues....

    I've checked the boards, other online retailers but I didn't see any evidence that these two re-issues had been released yet. So whats going on?

    Release dates are very flexable beasties. Especially with exclusives. TRU may be holding onto them for Christmas even though Hasbro has shipped them out.

    They said they'd be out in September, but they said that 6 months ago. Things happen.

    I saw them, but they were in VERY small ammounts, like two of each.

    They are out, but each store
    does operate a little differently.
    They may be holding them till a pre-arrainged sale date.
    They may be holding them till the DVD release date.

    I'm glad I bought the TFC reissues of the Insecticons and Perceptor years ago. Saves me the trouble of hunting them down now.

    Yeah... I kinda figured out that that is the situation.... bummer.
    I do have my TFC re-issues. But I sure want to get those insecticons...
