    Dumb question but, what does "RA" and "RD" stand for? Revenge (of the Fallen) Autobot, Revenge (of the Fallen)Decepticon?

    ^I'd say so, since ROTF Japanese title is simply "Revenge" :) 

    The release date in Japan is the 30th (with their own midnight countdown event in Ikebukuro), but online vendors often begin packing/shipping a day before.

    Yeah they had a really nice display for the release at the Ikebukuro TRU. It has been up since at least April 25th.
