Do I wait and see if Amazon UK get their own exclusive in or will it be like Skywarp where it is only on US and vanishes?

Did Amazon UK get any of their exclusives in the end last year? Greenlight and the sideswipe set were the others weren't they?
They had the PotP nemesis prime. Big gamble really.

Greenlight and Sideswipe had listings but as far as I recall they were never fulfilled.

Any evidence of dead prime appearing in Asia? That was how the G2 Sideswipe got here I think. Only Amazon exclusive in the US. I think it was that the Skywarp set didn't get further than America.

I just think that's the difference. Hasbro somewhere now seem to be offloading arm loads of the Sideswipe set cheap because we've seen it turn up in two places half price, but the Skywarp one stayed on Amazon. Pretty sure it was because Hasbro Asia did the sideswipe one. So if dead prime is coming out over there, Kapow will probably get it that way.

What's between the cab and trailer in the vehicle mode picture?  His gun |

I did think it might be that but wasn't 100% sure as the magazine looking bit is slightly more curved than I'd expect..... and it is an odd place to store it, I'd have put it under (or in) the trailer

The instructions tell us to stow it under the trailer, but all stock photos show it there.
To be honest, I'd prefer it there, if hasbro hadn't stupidly put the trailer hitch so far up prime's legs.

Alt Universe Op has been revealed earlier than planned, he was on the Embargoed till 24/07 list! Another indication that we were going to get another exclusivocalypse at SDCC, which is now being spread out a bit with the fan fridays. |

Kudos to Hasbro. It is far far more sensible to spread the exclusives out this year than the madness of the Exclusive Apocalypse of last year. This is a better way to keep your customers happy and they'll still sell just as well. But FFS get Siege Skywarp out there!!!!

Yeah, but's only happening because SDCC isn't. Not because Hasbro are thinking sensibly.

Dead Prime ordered from Amazon US (don't have faith Amazon UK will get it). I had no choice.

Yes you did have a choice. A choice to NOT get this... obscenity.

It is similatenously an obscure comics reference as well as a homage to a famous scene in TF:TM. It also has a silly name and comes in an amusing box.
I had no choice.
