    The ship date at EE has been April for a few months now. Of course, Target and Walmart might get them sooner.

    So, that guy paid $103.00 + shipping to get it about ten days early.

    For those of you who can't wait, or are at the mercy of a non North American branch of Hasbro, Toyspark has them listed on eBay now, marked as in hand.

    I am only interested in the black repaint. Any chance you know when that'll be out?

    His case has Rollbar and Richocet too, right? 'Cause I haven't seen either of them yet. Still a little too much of the Tracks/Skids/Sunstreaker/Prowl case in my local stores.

    There are different cases around, I guess depends on region.

    The 2x Prime, 1x Rollbar, 1x Ricochet has been confirmed as coming to NZ and we'll get that case next month. Hasbro NZ apparently wanted this case, thinking Prime will be a big seller and wanted as many of them as they could get, and skipped over the 1 Prime case. They've also pushed our Skids, Sunstreaker and Prowl case back because of this.

    Let's hope that's the case. We've got enough Skids and Sunstreakers around here.

    Looks good, but the grill looks like a cheap sticker.
