    I spotted these yesterday (July 25) all through out Metro Manila, PHILIPPINES; at Toy Town, Eastwood Mall in Eastwood City - Libis Quezon City, Toy Kingdom Express, SM City Marikina in Marikina City and Toys R Us, Robinsons Place Metro East in Pasig City. They’re all over but not all stores have them yet but are expected to arrive soon.

    HFTD - Scout Class WAVE 2 (Insecticon, Breacher and Oil Pan) - Php 599.75 (approx $12.50 USD)

    These new Speed Stars Stealth Force are smaller and aren't spring loaded compared to, Megatron and Gears, that came out first a few weeks ago. These are deluxe class sized while Megs and Gears are closer to voyager class size. Check out fxfranz's video review of Stealth Force Hound bellow to get a better look.

    All pictures above were taken at Toy Town, Eastwood Mall in Eastwood City - Libis Quezon City.



    Here's a proof of purchase for Breacher and Insecticon. These were instant get.

    Or like $25. Not unheard of for a pair of scouts, even in the US.

    Sounds like kohls or kmart prices as those are only stores in my area that charge as much as 10$ for scouts...or forgot walgreens too....
    I know in american money that's equal to about the same here...but when you see 599.75! Got damn! Ya dig!

    ^Our prices in the Philippines aren't that bad from a local market perspective and definitely better than the Asian market prices for Transformers. From what I've been told in the past, Playkit, the local distrubutor of Transformers in the Philippines, mostly follow the Asian price points except for deluxe class and leader class figures which we get approximately $3 and $16 USD less respectively, compared to other Asian countries. That doesn't help me with my scout class collection though.

    Nice. Breacher + Sea Spray vs. Skystalker + Mindwipe will be epic.

    Can we be honest and admit that "Oil Pan" is just about the laziest name ever for a TF? If we accept this, we can expect to be picking up his teammates "Child Safety Lock", "Garment Bag Hook", "Cup Holder", and "Spare Tire Retention Nut".

    Also, there are WAAAAY too many Transformers toys that do not transform into anything, and they all suck.

    We did when the movies came out and we likely will again next summer.

    The stealth force dudes vary greatly in size considering all those ones are the same size class.

    I take it you've never heard of Battle Unicorn? Dinobot, Insecticon, and about 1/3 of the Beast Wars names are pretty lazy, too...
