£24.99 for PC at Amazon and £35.99 for Xbox 360.

 

That's hardly Hasbro's fault. And it's not a fair comment regardless. The second season hasn't finished in the US yet, and 90% of the time UK TV channels wait until a season is over and then buy it in one go rather than just show new episodes as and when they air in the US.

Most of my nephews friends watch it, and they are perfectly capable of finding it. However, they also only get one new Transformer a month AT MOST, and from that mentality there's more than enough product out there to satisfy them.

(People do seem to get confused as to how this stuff works. Adults buy the new products when they come out. Kids however will be allowed to buy a new toy at times irrelevent to distribution waves, and will have a choice of whatever is on the shelves. Going into Smyths shows 4 different types of Deluxe Prime toy, two Voyagers, two Leaders, and a whole load of movie figures. They are spoilt for choice.)

 

Look, I do actually know how this works. The retailers are Hasbros customers. We are the retailers customers. If a product is going to go to market, it is Hasbros responsibility to maximise exposure for a product. The current situation consists of Hasbro not giving this brand the attention and exposure that they should, and that is their responsibilty. I dont know why you continue to be oblivious to this.

I fully accept the limitations of what can be done, and further what can be done economically, and that there are times when the extra push in media simply is not warranted in sales. However, many other brands - brands which have not been out for as long, and are not currently on the back of a highly successful Hollywood trilogy - are pushing their products, rotating stock better and managing to get a far higher selection onto UK shelves - Ben 10 is a prime example.

Hasbro manage to get the cartoon aired in the US without endless repeats, and 'blind packing' the episodes. I don't expect it to air simultaneously here, but it simply shows that the UK is not a priority. Fine, I dont like it but at least I accept that fact!

 

Nice, back to work and I have a shipment of Microns from RK, CL Ultra Magnus, oversize KO Ravage and Jet Vehicon, not bad from a week off, oops!

Hey. On the way home from work I nipped into my local asda. their reorganizing the toy shelves (Most likely for december) and a shelf space has been set aside under “generations“

 

Fingers crossed...

 

yea generations 2012 is supposed be here by 23/24th to be released alongside the FOC game

 

Hmmm.. The Chinese repaints (Spinger et al) are classed as Generations. Nice to see them show up here.

 

Has it been confirmed? I thought those ones were Asia only.

 

And US later. I'd bet on FoC only

 

^ me, too. But fingers crossed. Heh, stranger things and all that. (Windcharger, early TFP RiD figures and Grapple / Lugnut.)

 

hasbro uk confirmed it a couple of weeks back when someone sent them a e-mail
the news was on fullmetalhero.com
when i say generations 2012 i meant the FOC figures

 

GDO Generations is a TRU exclusive in the US.

And TRU US Exclusive usually means TRU Exclusive in any western country.

Which in turn would mean TRU UK, or nothing.

So overwhelming odds: Nothing.

The 'can't prove it won't happen' crowd, knock yourself out.

 

AS always, it's up to the individual to decide just how badly they want figure x, if it's a must have then you shouldn't take the risk and just import it now. If you only sort of want it then by all means wait and see but you'll have no gurantee of ever getting it then.Po

 

I think you are on the wrong web site. The one that has logic and sensibility is over there.....  

 

Sighted at Auto Assembly over the weekend....


Everything!!!

 

Including a wife freaking out as i spent half my money in a 35minute splurge on friday night with the early access lol

 

Hamleys... £18 deluxes.

They also had First Edition Deluxe Starscream in the display case. I haven't seen him in the UK?

 

That's been there for several months. I don't think it means anything.
