We thought to share this bit of news for those of you interested in owning some of the sweet exclusive toys offered by E-Hobby, such as the Transformers Cloud Destrons. Our sponsors Hobby Link Japan are getting a stock of these for reasonable prices, in case you’ve been thinking of getting these but not yet pulled the trigger on the purchase. Check out the order links below:
Transformers Cloud Starscream
Transformers Cloud Shockwave
Transformers Cloud Hellwarp
Transformers Unite Warriors Grand Scourge
Not an E-Hobby exclusive, but we’d be remiss if we failed to mention they also have preorders open for Masterpiece Road Rage!
HLJ has also added a listing for the Transformers Legends LG-14 Ultra Magnus with Alpha Trion – for whom we also have a clearer image attached to this story, courtesy of E-Hobby! Check out the groovy details on this Japanese market version of the Leader-Class Ultra Magnus we’ve been waiting for since 2006!

Ah I see.

This is awesome and was COMPLETELY surprised when I saw them on there…I ordered myself a few Shockwaves! I could not pass up the prices for these guys.
PoweredConvoy
They're not re-releases. Just extra stock that they've had since the figures arrived. You could always order these guys from eHOBBY (if in Japan) since they've been released.

Preordered Magnus at amiami as I can combo it with Tracks.
Very tempted to get the cloud figures off of HLJ though; did Megatron sell out already at ehobby? I know he was out a while so I'm curious as to why HLJ isn't selling him as well and I kinda want him

After seeing the E-Hobby photos, I finally caved and placed a pre-order for Ultra Magnus with AmiAmi. The difference in price is surprisingly only $2, and I'm liking Takara's additional paint apps and silver rims more and more. I'm sure this will make Maggie feel less like a toy and more like a collector's item.

Pre-ordered my second Magnus and MP-Roadrage!

Still want to add Starscream to my collection at some point. Already have Roadbuster, Rodimus, and Shockwave (which are all great), and have limited interest in eventually picking up Optimus and Megatron if funds dictate.

Thanks for the tip, I jumped on that!

considering i've seen at least a few people go all "im gonna throw away my minimus as soon as i get it!!" i'm sure you'll be able to buy one or otherwise do a swap for Alpha Trion once the Hasbro one gets released.

Yeah I've only ever done small orders with them, the most expensive of which (AM Wildrider and the AM Planetary Bowgun) coming in at about $11 or so shipped.

There's probably a chart somewhere, but I think they're known to be a bit cheaper than AmiAmi. It also depends on whether you ship out just one item at a time or bundle things together; large orders work best for me at AmiAmi but HLJ might be a better fit for smaller orders.

Damn Magnus is pretty much a steal at this price. hell he's cheaper then the E-Hobby grand scourge. That cinches it ill be picking up the Takara version of UM.
Underlord
Whoa, the exchange rate on magnus works out at £31.99! Hlj shipping is quite cheap should be about £3.50. If magnus was ever to show up at UK retail he would be £49.99. Hmmmm…

"Whoa this" UM "is pretty bad ass, makes me wanna squeeze into my bad ass red jeans!"
Dark_T_Zeratul
Oh my, that Ultra Magnus is gorgeous and at a great price. I'm torn, though, because I'd rather have Minimus Ambus than Alpha Trion.
Incidentally, having never ordered from HLJ before, does anyone know what shipping rates are generally like to the US?

I wouldn't have expected them to re-release some of the Cloud figures.
Robogeek28
Wow, I've wanted that Starscream since I first saw him, but now that my focus is just MP and 3rd party MP items I can't see buying him now.
PoweredConvoy
You can still order these 3 Decepticons at eHOBBY. HLJ is probably taking advantage of this and purchasing some to offer to their non-Japanese customers.
TakaraTomy Mall did not ever offer any extra of their 4 Autobot exclusives, so I would doubt they'd ever show up on HLJ like the eHOBBY exclusives have.

Roadbuster is still in stock and super cheap at chimungmung.com

C'mon Rodimus!!
