    That explains why BBTS referred to this item when they posted it as "revived" as opposed to a new release.

    Yes, we've got confirmed case assortments that are something like two of him, one Hot Spot and one Powerdive. Brawn's the one that's not coming to the US at least.

    Good line of thought, but I'd respectfully disagree on the grounds these never made it to the US before. AFAIK they never even made it to the warehouses to be put out. Factor in Hasbro said at SDCC "about October" for the second run, and right now it's pointing to this being the new run. Perhaps a scalper had the others, but left that on the grounds that the damaged box harmed the resale potential?

    Perhaps...but did the Entertainment pack even get a U.S. release?

    So maybe during the next week, we'll be getting reports of FE figures being found State side. Can't wait. :D

    Yes! Hopefully this means voyagers aren't far behind. Still need to get a second Prime to have the Dr. Wu head on it at all times, and a hasbro bulkhead, since i dont like to mess around with my takara too much. Can't wait for zombie cliffjumper either...it's been too long!!! yay!!!

    So, is First Edition CJ going to be released in the US TRU or just the FE: Terrorcon CJ? I'm hoping for both.

    From what I've seen, just Terrorcon Cliffjumper will be released. Hopefully a revision wave later on will include the regular Cliffjumper and maybe (vomits) even Bumblebee. lol

    I hope these start filtering into other TRU's. I don't have any Optimus or Megatron from the Prime series yet because I'm not fond of the PRID versions. After those 2, all I need is Starscream and Bulkhead and I'll have all the characters I want.

    I was in Canada in early August and let me tell you, those TRU's are drowning in this shit! Surprised those didn't just get boxed up and transferred down to the states. It would have been smart for them.

    no. This is in California. You should look in the Texas Sightings Thread for Texas postings.

    ^^ my guess would be whatever was originally released last year would be what we get again... so if it was in canada or wherever its probably gonna be the same thing.

    good luck guys ill try to update with spotted locations as this thread progresses...
