Someone always is surprised by that fact when Zob bring us a tidbit that we pass on here for news. We're not many now, but some of us still believe in the old ways, the deep magicks.

Good on you, mate! Lucky devil, you can get it before BotCon! 
0ptimus__Prime:
Yes!! This is great! Gives me time to save up some money for the toys.
Dinobot Nuva:
Aw man, this may just end up making me choose between this and Botcon...dunno if I can afford both so close together...
AniProwl:
I hope this movie's toyline is not as long as the last one's or we might not see Universe 2.0 until maybe the end of the year.
BigRC83:
Right on time for BOTCON. Always excited to see new toy lines on the shelfs.
Ash from Carolina:
Well I guess on the bright side at least that puts a date on when I'm out of the Transformers toy collecting hobby. Ha ha, and I can figure out what to do with money when I'm not having to spend it toys.
Tell_Story:
I will be exerting much patience and waiting until the premium line comes out next year! I did this for the last movie toys and it paid off. I will probably have to get Deluxe Soundwave though because he will sell out and will probably not have a premium repaint. It's just not worth the risk!
yovnocrats:
so, Wal-mart is going to overstock and cause another crippling drought/ shortage on new figures? I really hope that doesn't happen. These need to sell and Wal-mart needs to keep fresh orders, or this is going to be disastrous.
Railguard:
Oh crap....my wife is going to kill me when I tell her about this new release....my wallet too.
Yobuster:
Well with this news and the fact that it was so well-timed. Perhaps we Botconners will see it before May30. i.e. Once most of us arrive at Pasadena on that wed or thurs it'll be available already. Of course that'll cause our wallets to stretch thin in buying Botcon gear AND movie gear. Aargh I'm going to be super broke! But hey it'll be a blast for sure. I'm bringing an extra suitcase.
SKowl:
I wonder how long it'll take before the toys are entered into the Wal-Mart computers and we can get some listings for the different figures...
Alexander Quinn:
Up here in the artic of Canada, my Wal-Mart forgot to get the original toys in. It took them two full weeks after the shelf date to get the first movie toys out at all. Thanks a bunch Wal-Mart, but I'll be heading over ot my local Zellers or Toys R Us for RotF toys.

Pete, if you CAN answer this question (because it's going to make a big difference concerning my travel arrangements)-- when you say BC will be "teeming with ROTF toys", does this mean that FP is making an arrangement with some company like Hasbrotoyshop that will actually HAVE lots of ROTF toys there, at Botcon, for roughly retail, or that a bunch of dealers will probably hit the nearby local stories and have them for above-retail?
Baccala1976:
This simply means more money in my wallet for the Botcon dealer room as I will not be spending a dime on those toys. Thank you Hasbro!
Hollywood Hoist:
I for one won't be buying any ROTF figures at Botcon, because as soon as I return home they'll be in every store. Why pay the money to ship them or trying to pack them in suit cases. Same thing with Animated, the only one I bought in advance was a BB so I could get it signed. That being said I might buy some ROTF if they make sense to get signed.
Yaujta:
I bought every one of the first releases last time at Target (I only went there for the exclusive Voyager Prime), but I remember that the employees had to bring them out case-by-case because there was only one end-cap dedicated to the movie line.
Hopefully there's a better release schedule for the new line. Getting a leader Prime and no Megatron last time was a bummer.
I already put in a vacation day for the 29th, and with payday being the 28th, it'll be a very relaxing, very EXPENSIVE weekend.
WooHoo!
Aaron:
While it will rock to have the toys at BotCon, I don't know how I'ma get everything home...
I may have to have a 4 way roommate split for shipping back to Indiana.

Do the Russian doll thing with two suitcases. Piece of cake.
Zaraxion1021:
Well, nothing for me to be excited about yet till i see all the bots in the movie. Definitely gonna try getting Soundwave though.
fallen_revenge:
this is pretty wicked 11 days after my birthday i can ask my parents for 100 buck my cousins mom gives me 40 bucks so 140 i can buy 2 leader classes optimus and megatron and the game and i can like get 60 bucks and i will get jetfire wicked.
