    It all depends on where you live. If you're on the West Coast, you'll probably see it within the next few weeks. If you're on the East Coast, you'll most likely see it next year, or maybe the year after. :lol 

    Seriously, he should be showing up any time now. Whenever Hasbro gets around the releasing him. Premium Ironhide and Blackout were just spotted in California a few days ago, so the Leader figs shouldn't be too far behind.

    It should be coming out really, really soon. A few websites have gotten him in (BBTS was one of them, I don't remember the others off the top of my head), and there have been a couple reports of them showing up at specialty stores too. So...he'll probably start hitting retail store shelves in the next few weeks, if not sooner.

    Cool, thanks guys. I'm on the East coast so I'll start keeping my eyes open for him in the next few weeks.

    Both Premium Leaders just showed up on HTS (Coming Soon), hopefully that means they'll be up for sale soon and not sit there forever like premium Ratchet has been.

    I find it funny that a toy company from RHODE ISLAND here on the east coast ships out toys to California first. Here in New Jersey, we're ALWAYS LAST to get anything. :(

    At the very least, they're already shipping to retail stores. Online retailers like BBTS and ToyNK already have them in stock. I actually already picked them up at ToyNK's store here in IL.
