    Oddly enough, the online store still has those on the catalogue numbers for the Classics... they better sort it or there will be some very unhappy campers...

    Edit: Just noticed that Megatron and Prime are *American* packaging.

    Classic DXs are starting to filter thru to Argos in the U.K - only the first three so far it seems.

    Got Ravage from Argos end of week before last.

    As for Cassics: As long as their are no postal screw ups, i'll be finished the line about the middle of next week.

    was shopping with the missus earlier,tesco artane have a lot of cybertron ,mudflap hardtop etc.. and star wars transformers, luke xwing ,darth maul sith infiltrator,boba fett slave 1, with 50% off marked price. still only silverstreak alternators for 24.95.

    whats the chances off champion sports carrying the nike transformers runners??????!!!!!!!nothing is safe now as we get closer to the movie!!!

    on that note,has anyone heard if the release date has been changed from july 27 to sometime earlier????now to watch tonights battlestar.

    there will be "preview", and then there will be ""preview"" of the dodgy disc varity!!!! i really dont want to be bombarded with people wanting to lending me copies cause they know im a fan. really considering hopping a plane bout 6/7 july,for a shopping trip!!that way everyone happy,i just happen to see movie while i there and get lots of movie line toys,and the girlfriend gets to go woodbury common,and get some louis armstrong bags or whatever his name is!!!

    but it will be a good day out on 27 july,double bill of transformers and simpsons.
    anyone know when movie line expecting to start hitting stores???im sure they will be everywhere when they do hit.

    June apparently. Yes, they'll be everywhere - taking up space long after the movie line is over because retailers over ordered them.


    Protoform figures were solicited for April. (Or was it May? - I 've kind of blanked them out.)

    It hope it's not too bad - i have a terrible weakness for oversized TFs, and am liable to buy it either way.

    I suspect it's going to be bug ridden (pun semi-intended) so i don't know if i should import it it (90$ + shipping)
    or get gouged for it locally (circa €130) so i can bring it back when it breaks.

    nice one! good to hear that some stores are getting them. megatron is one of the best figures in the range i think,got used to the "wings" and colour.
    bumblebee and mirage are pretty cool figures too.

    nothing new in dublin,although smyths got in the 30th anniversary star wars figs.

    got word this morning that smyths have done a u-turn on stocking the classics.
    they will be doing wave 2,but have ordered what they can get from wave 1. apparently they are rushing them to select stores,dont know which ones.
    prime and megatron will be the first to hit shelves in next few days from warehouse! go get em!

    traded in some star wars figures for credit in modelmania last weekend,good thing cos these came in yesterday! they also got classics devastator , reissue soundwave, and couple more titaniums. i just missed out on the fallen figure by 30 seconds! they are expecting a lot of beast wars soon they said.

    nothing new in other places this week.

    Well they got (The) Fallen quick, it's barely out in Asia.

    What price tag did they put on Magnus and Skywarp?
