Hello again! I have been on amazon.com looking at what can be shipped to the UK with that prepaid customs thing, and ended up buying voyagers, Sharkticon Megatron, Shockwave (Prime) and Generations Springer, £50 which includes shipping and customs. That seems like a pretty good deal no? Very fair! If it gets through customs OK I know where I'll be buying most of my transformers this year!
Also Hasbro's UK website claims Generations Waspinator, Rhinox, Cosmos (and others I don't care about but have yet to see) are out. Maybe it's just rubbish... maybe they're out soon, but I figure it's worth bearing in mind!

They will: look at your order the customs charge is pre paid.

Well, now I don't feel so bad about Hasbro UK being (allegedly) run by (alleged) chimpanzees. It's like tobacco companies not realising, or taking advantage of the fact, that nicotine is addictive! A strange business.

Wow Grimlocks far more reasonably priced than I expected. And I do like the look of it, but don't think I'll be buying.

We saw Fireblast Grimlock at the end of January when me nd Mr Marshall had a disagreement over what toy it took after tmukhub.proboards.com/post/168890/threadI mean it's obvious Superlink Dinobot Magma Type |

BBTS have mailed me with their latest enticements: All four Cloud figures (Prime, Megs, Brawn and Starscream) but, more importantly for my own interests, FansProject's Roadbuster Warbot Revolver. I'm looking forward to comparing this and the forthcoming Hasbro release.  Guess I should start thinking about Rack'n'Ruin now... |

Are those the oversized deluxues?

They are. I have a set winging their way to me from Mr McDuff

My Home Bargains was full of the oversized legions when I was in on Friday. Seems there will be little chance of the only deluxe figure I am after popping up in there, but I shall keep checking.
Hopefully Mr Ayres will let us know if these oversized legions are as bad as they look when they arrive. Hopefully by midweek.

Ripclaw is the only deluxe I am looking for. Maybe Vertebreak if that one is dirt cheap, but I already have that mold in Laserback.
£30 will do nicely, as that includes postage.

That Roadbuster looks awesome. What the Dickens are they thinking putting Springer in the case assortment? Springers are everywhere, should be Whirl surely?

An earlier voyager assortment had two Sandstorms to one Springer in them I believe, so supplies may be running low.

Yeah but that was the one that introduced Sandstorm!

Okay, somebody at Hasbro reckons Springer is a big seller. Makes sense to have the occasional leader of the Wreckers in with a lad who's only really known for being a Wrecker.
Also a giant biomechanical shark from another series.

Springer did not get a uk release so the case assortment is fine with me.

This is another US assortment though. We still don't know exactly what Hasbro UK are going to bestow upon us. Eventually.
I wish we bloomin did. I am still short of a lot of the newer Generations toys and it would be so nice to know which will eventually make it here.

I had just presumed that the UK would be shafted on Generations anyway!

This seems a safe bet. I'm sure some will turn up in Home Bargains or TRU (months or years after there US release), but with no way to guess it's of no help.

Just noticed that Toys R Us now have three of the four upscaled Legion Beast Hunters for online order (no Bee I can see). More expensive than Home Bargains though.

Man those feel so expensive for what they are. The Predacons look like they could be nice if they are made out of good quality plastic though.
