TheSpaceBridge pulled an April Fool’s joke on everyone with his report of the Movie figures. However, Hound and Cyclonus are indeed out, he says.
———————————————————–
2005 boards member TheSpaceBridge has found the newest wave of Universe figures to hit the UK, as well as Transformers Revenge of The Fallen figures! Happy hunting Transformers fans in the UK!

at all the bitter tears in this thread.
And once more

It also contains the first sightings of Hound and Cyclonus at a high street retailer, IIRC.

Most likely, but not widespread. All things considered with the last movie, the retailers did a rather nice job of keeping to their word as much as possible.
In fact, it was TRU that screwed up first, the last time. Wasn't it Chaos Muffin who'd bought Bonecrusher? (I think I'm remembering that correctly…)
But yeah, don't be surprised to see leaks here and there. I'd not be surprised if we found a few shipments in the back of some stores as we speak.

THIS and QFT.

could somebody close these aprilfool-thread please?
It's full of lies, anger, wordwar and "hating all foreign countrys which have the toys yet"
And please mark the thread as an aprilfoool. Thank you

cant wait till they start showing up in the US.. my bet is that wallys will be the first to fumble the release date.
JAYSCREAM
just goes to show that the u.s. stereo type comes out when the toys come out of the pram. have a s.o.h. much? its only a few mind, a minority. kudos to the guys that didnt give a stuff about relese dates. aprils fool or not wishing riots on someones country is not nice.
AnimatedFan
You know….
…nah. Not even worth it.
No discussion of politics. You're going to get this thread closed all because you can't take a joke. And it's about time the Brits get first dibs on something, and even though this was all a joke, I hope Hasbro takes the hint and gives them a shot at being before us on the release list.
How would you like living somewhere where TFs are a premium price as an everyday occurrence?
Geez, get your shit together.

If you really want to know what this prank is good for…
I'm a Yank and I just damn near sh*t on my own country and stood up for the Brits in support of them finally getting something before the U.S.
If it hadn't been for my attentiveness and not just jumping from pg.3 straight to the last page of posts (which I almost did) Hitch wouldve gotten more satisfaction than originally anticipated.
Jokes on You, and now you're stuck with our new Pres. on your turf for the next few days for the conference. April Fools! Enjoy the riots. HA HA!
AnimatedFan
…and thank you for further proving my point that the list of stuff the US hasn't received yet is, in fact, SMALL. Comprehension…does u haz it?
Oh! See? Incorrect AND not getting it. Coulda bet a million.
Oooh, now you're going for triple wrong!
*facepalms* We do that. That's how we know you're wrong and we're right. You also have to remember that this is an April Fools Day thread! It's HA HA!
WTF? Seriously. You're just making us want to do this to ourselves:
Optimus Sledge

The Hound & Cyclonus I DID buy in the store. I just scanned the reciept, added 2 lines, adjusted the total and printed it out.
Thats 2 years running I have got people, gonna have to work at it next year!
Drift

Gen. Hospital
So… and you… but…
Ok.
Let me just tell you what the prices are around here.
A deluxe costs around 200NKR (20GBP), a voyager would be about 350NKR (36GBP), and a leader 650NKR (67GBP).
Not to hijack the thread or anything.

I preferred the American Bruticus Giftset gag.
Info previously posted by Red Leader indicated price hikes were on the way for the U.K. (They were getting 'too good a deal' it would seem.)
