Japanese Transformers Sightings

Jarodimus · 11-25-2008, 05:27 AM

MP Thundercracker is out and about in Tokyo: ¥10,500 at Kiddyland in Harajuku, ¥8999 at TRU in Ikebukuro, ¥8400 at Yodobashi in Akihabara, and ¥8380 at Bic Camera in Shinjuku. Plenty available at each store.

Also, Bic has BT Arcee marked down to ¥2980, Yodobashi has Henkei Ramjet at ¥1680 (they had a ton of him), and TRU Ikebukuro has one Encore Megatron with a roughed-up (but sealed) box for ¥3000.

I've been down at the Moritown TRU and it's stocked with beastwars, Sky Lynx, Voyager Megatron for only 1000 yen which is a really good deal, henkei hound, cheetor, galvatron, and starscream, Masterpiece starscream for 8999 yen, and a few of the 2007 movie deluxes such as Arcee and swindle for 1599 yen.

Target Exclusive Animated 2-Packs are now in stock at online retailer Mamegyorai. I'm not sure it is already released in US or not...

I received E-Hobby's Black Megatron and Sunstorm reissues today, so if you've got yourself one or both of them ordered, be on the look out! They've finally made land fall.

A deluxe Ratchet!!!!!! I saw one of those in the Military Exchange up here where I live, I'm mad I didn't grab it when I had the chance.

Why would it be so shocking that a Japanese TRU stocks Japanese toys?

I just received my Henkei Thrust from Ganbo Toy Store this morning. For anyone else that has one on order, you should be expecting its arrival /very/ shortly.

Cheers!
