Around 2wo weeks ago, we see Final Battle Jazz, Longarm, Ratchet white and Thundercraker, plus Real Gear waves 3 and 4 . Fab that come here are Op, Ironhide, Starscream, Jazz and Ratchet. Cyberstompins from july, Cyber Slammers BB and Barricade out only at Auchan; no TECH role play, but Optimus helmet and Arm Blaster out from august. G1 Robot Heroes only at IperCoop, Bumblebee Unleshead was included with vieogame in a videostore. Others like Robot Replicas and 2 pack Bumblebees are come trough not italian importation. Bye! ^_^
I wish I lived in Italy. I could be friends with puffmarko and we could have gelato in Florence. Those would be good times.
Movie Voyagers Evac, Offroad Ironhide, First Strike Optimus Prime, Movie Robot Heroes and the Screens Battle sets found in "Toys Center" stores.
And I wish I lived in USA! I could find Transformers everywhere (I mean, in stores ) and they wouldn't be as much expensive (and hard to find) as they are here in Italy. ^^
I was on vacation in Italy in November, Rome, Florence and Venice. I loved it and want to go back, but the dollar value sucks too much to go back anytime soon.
I just mention the comin' of Animated Leaders 2 weeks ago in the News board; now here in Venice I found the Loc Universe Starscream, Onslaught and RedAlert.
Can you send me a PM when you get universe deluxe figures? And how are the prices going for deluxe figures over in Italy?
