Is there any way we can find out what exactly happened with these? It seems so odd that they would just up and cancel them, especially since they've already been made along with the current tide of Transformers products out on the market.
I'm willing to bet they had a deal in the works to get these manufactured as a promo but the deal fell through after the marketing people shoved some stuff out the door.

Oh, and I have just discovered that Device Label will be released in America sometime during the holidays. I was really hoping laser mouse Overkill would be released, but maybe another time in the future… (if they have plans)
BTW, wouldn't the G1 Predacon Rampage be an excellent idea for a repaint of Ravage/Tigatron/Cheetor?

Well, if they don't release Device Label in America, I'm better off buying them via Big Bad Toy Store.

I wish i could import a real deal Ravage. Totally missed the boat on those
Sol Fury
Too bad. Seems like another case of "import to avoid disappointment", which is a shame because importing is not always an option for everyone.

Please don't tell me they will remain cancelled!!!

I tried, but the link never led to the Transformers merchandise. Did a site search, and nothing.

According to the sales ad, this was a temporary offer that appears to have ended on 3/31/2010: Scans of Toshiba Transformers Device Label Sales Advertisement
I'm curious if anyone actually tried ordering from that site before they disappeared. The links in the ad do not work anymore.
Apparently they had some kind of "sweepstakes" where they gave away a few of them: http://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/ebtext.to?page=sweepstakesrules

Yeah, it's definitely a shame. Ravage is nowhere to be found now, aside from the terrible KOs on eBay.
Hot Shot.
I wonder what happened to these. Cancelled?

Oops! Sorry, hehe. I forgot to check the article's publish date.

Is this the article?
Transformers: USB drive and mouse in disguise – Pocket-lint
Because it's dated September 2009.

I was just wondering about these the other day as well.
Ejector369
When are they ever gonna be released? I'm tired of waiting!
Insane Galvatron
I'm gonna post the coupon code in this thread just in case something happens to the image or info over at Seibertron.com.

I wonder if these will be exclusive to the website or if we can buy them in any brick and mortar?

I hope Toshiba bring these to the UK, because at 4Gb they've got my attention.
*Soundwave*
now i just need to know where to find a Ravage.

Great news about the increase in storage capacity. Ravage will be bought and hopefully Blaster as well if it's released.
