Yes friends, here is the release news you have all been waiting for! Transformers Generations "GDO" aka China Import Deluxe series has arrived in the US! This Toys R Us exclusive assortment of Wheelie, Springer, Swerve and Cliffjumper has been sighted at Toys R Us stores in Illinois - and with a bit of luck, other assortments will soon follow them to retail so all fans can enjoy this excellent series of toys that until now was limited to Asian markets.

LegoTFGuy

Just the Deluxes, or Deluxes and Voyagers? And how much were they?

Thundershot

Which ones?? I really want the Voyagers...

DX7879

Will have some later for sure. Just not sure I can post pics from my phone. They weren't in the system though so they just scanned a Generations figure

UltimusPrime

Deluxes?

UltimusPrime

This would be a great time to show up with that buy 2 get 1 sale still going on. Better then the $40 shipped each that I paid earlier this year and I won't feel guilty ripping them open.

DX7879

Yep. Edited my first post. 2 of each per case it seems

Starfire22

Dammit, my TRU doesn't have these.

Maybe next week.

I have had the Generations Voyagers for almost 2 months.

Thundershot

I need Springer and Wheelie just to be complete, I guess. I REALLY want those Voyagers though.

UltimusPrime

Prepare for Cliffjumper pegwarming! I like the mold maybe none of the figures will pegwarm since the case assortments are even.

Bought in a US retail store?

That's why I said "until now"... The Asia ones are the first Generations Voyagers.

From a US Seller. There are more outlets to buy these then TRU and have been for several months now.

You never know which Class will show up first. Thundercracker popped up out of nowhere. The Voyagers are going to show up in the next month at least. Shame about Brawn being cancelled though. I was excited for it although it is ugly as hell.

salmonman78

Hmm, guess maybe I SHOULD go on the lunch date with my wife, spend some quality time with her and all.

A block away from a TRU.

I do the same thing!...

I love spending time with you hun...oh look is that TRU?...

Kaijumaster

sweet! the hunt begins, need me that Springer!

jignat

Springer and Hot Spot for me!!

Avengers

Did you see any Asian GDO Generations voyagers at your TRU store. I really want that G-2 Megatron that uses the HFTD Bludgeon toy mold.

How about any FE Toys at your TRU store. I really want that FE Vehicon deluxe & FE Voyager Bulkhead.

Fort_Fett

My TRU is really loaded down with Prime and FOC dlx. Hope that goofy sale cleared some room.

wolfe

More new stuff to look for!

JamesBenjamin

Also how about a barcode # so we can call around and have them check their systems?

GrimlockAutobot

Damn all I want is the deluxe Wheelie to go with my Grimlock collection.

Can anyone out there hook a brother up?

Starfire22

All I want is swerve. (Out of the deluxes)

FatalT 71

Wheelie and Springer. I want 'em...

I'll post pics when I get home later if needed

Please post some pics soon, Hasbro is actually beating us to the punch huh?

Sideswipe1954

SKUs would be great, especially with this Buy 2 get 1 free promo going on until Saturday

You sure? That's the same as the old Generations. He said that they just scanned an old Generations figure because these weren't in the system yet, so them sharing the same item number would be weird...

Fosterlager

Good, finally some deluxe-sized deluxes to buy.

BigRC83

Interesting...

miscreant

Finding it kind of unusual that Generations DXs i bought From Hong Kong don't have Chinese writing on the packaging....

...but the ones shipped to the US do.

Dirge121

I wonder how long before we see GDO Cliffjumper packaging with an RiD Cliffjumper inside.

xMostWanted559x

Is swerve same mold as kup? Hmm only one I want is springer and maybe wheelie

Swerve uses the Kup mold and head shown in his directions.

...will the RID head fit?

UltimusPrime

Again Credit to Danimal for the pic of the receipt.

xMostWanted559x

I'm going see if they have springer maybe ill return rid cliff jumper I got last week for a swap

Anguirus

It seems as if it is, in fact, on.

UltimusPrime

Just so everyone knows there were issues scanning the figures when they went to check out. I guess they are not in the system yet.

MWG

So is Wheelie still short-packed or not? Anyhow, hopefully these will be plentiful. At least the local TRUs (all of which are an hours drive each way from me) seem to be doing good with MP Thundercrackers, since I've seen a bunch in every TRU I visited in the last couple weeks.

Thats a very good question, I'd be fairly tempted to buy the GDO if I could put the RID head on instead of the ridiculous looking head it comes with. As it is these guys are all an easy pass.
