    Good idea. Lots of little hearts are about to be broken because they only read part of the thread.

    I'd love for this to be true. I'd like a Que...but I don't want to pay THAT much. I'd also like to get a FE Vehicon.

    It's probably not true though.

    Look at the track record for FE's so far though:

    We saw FE Bulkhead get a small re-release of sorts.

    FE Megatron Vs. Optimus have appeared for preorder at two retailers.

    FE Terrorcon Cliff is the SDCC exclusive.

    At this point, re-releasing regular Cliff, Arcee and Vehicon in Asian markets really doesn't seem like that much of a stretch, you know?

    Yeah, it's not much of a stretch, but seemed from the beginning of the thread people were implying this was stateside.

    So, besides HLJ...are there other reliable online sites to order from if these do end up in Asia only?

    But he's not being redecoed into QUE. You're thinking the Wheeljack retool with the G1-y head. And I don't think the op would easily confuse the two.

    Ah, I also missed that. I tend to scan sometimes, not read the whole thing.

    No biggie though. I'm interested to see what kind of Vehicon we get. If it's at all different from the Japanese FE, I will likely import one. :)

    Me too, cause I was a little slow in jumping on ones that were in my pricerange. I can't bring myself to pay $80+ for this figure, but my movie collection just isn't complete without one or two of him in it. A release of Leadfoot would be the topper (would love to have one in both modes in the display).

    Everybody has to buy online at sometime so they can deal with it. Not sure if you were serious.

    And then there's the fact that the US version was being called Wheeljack.

    GD Right, at $30-$40 I will likely be in for two. Really, really hoping this turns out.

    Um, didn't they already release those FE figures there? That's like the only place you can find them now....not unless you can find them in Canada still :/

    Wasn't it already confirmed that the Movie All-Stars line was going to be made into a Hasbro Asia exclusive line?

    I'm probably in the minority on this, but when it comes to the First Editions, I really couldn't care much less (only thing that comes to mind is movie figures).

    You're thinking Takara. This is Hasbro's division in Asia.
