    Indeed. If it gets a UK release, it's almost definitely going to TRU, and there probably wont be any bargains to be had either.

    If the US version price is about £100, I would rather ask my friend to buy a TT version for me from China.

    Last i heard they were claiming it may be put off til January.

    Toys that pricey that don't usually get a UK launch til well into the middle of summer.

    Whole thing is looking very sketchy, imo.

    People do keep asking this question on hasbro uk facebook page and the general answer seems to be mid Nov/early Dec. The January rumor never got followed on when asked about I believe.

    £89.99 has been the most strongly evidenced price mooted so far.

    But the price gouging by TRU in the US would make me expect a higher price.

    Just seen on the hasbro UK Facebook page that they have delivered the mp-10 to TRU in the UK. So they should be appear in store in the next week or so apparently! I was in there today and they had rodimus prime for £49.99 and I nearly picked it up glad I didn't knowing this now!
