Anyone know where I can get some GDO Generations from at a decent price, just really after Springer, Swerve and Wheelie, maybe Hot Spot too. Not bothered about having them carded either (I've got a trade thread on Fwoosh, but not had any people offering to trade the GDO stuff yet, so thought I'd get involved here finally!)

Welcome to the TMUK forum. I think we were hoping they were going to turn up in the UK but alas.... Bogatan recomends getting them from TRU.com using iParcel. See here for further details and I'll PM him to come here and explain |

Hi, thanks for replying and the info.
That's the first I've heard about Toys R Us shipping internationally. I think I need a bit more help though. First they don't have Wheelie online, and secondly the website is saying that the GDO figures can't apparently be shipped to the UK;
'The items listed below that appear in your cart cannot be shipped to the country that you have selected. Please adjust your cart accordingly.
Transformers Generations Deluxe Action Figure - Swerve
Transformers Generations Deluxe Action Figure - Autobot Springer'
Maybe they just started doing this?

Actually, I've looked again and on the listing itself it says it is available for international shipping. Also, there is another set of GDO figures listed (exactly the same but without pics) that can be shipped. Shame about Wheelie.
Just not sure whether to get these now or hope Wheelie comes back in stock.
But wow, this has changed my collecting habits. I think I might start collecting Marvel Universe again, shame the X-factor set isn't there anymore!!!

I think the ones without pics have been used successfully by people. It seems TRU is limiting some high demand items from international sales. But it changes, MP Thundercracker has been available to ship internationally at times and not at others.
I got both GDO Megatron and Hotspot from TRU (well still waiting on Hotspot) but they came in and out of stock so quickly I had to check regularly to find them.

As for ordering, its really straight forward, add item to basket, and then in basket click on the where its shipping to link and select UK. Then proceed to check out at which point if it can be shipped you go to an Iparcel page where it shows the postage and customs costs, fill in shipping and payment details and your done. You can also use Paypal for payment and theres no need to create an account with TRU or Iparcel.

Thanks also for the info, I've ordered 3 figures (Springer, Swerve and Wheeljack because its buy two, get one free.) Darn, wish I had known about this so I could have ordered Hot Spot, will keep checking back though.
Really glad I signed up here, great to have a site dedicated to TF in the UK.
