GEN Swerve & Cosmos galleries

[griffin]

These two in the "Legends" class haven't seen much of a release so far, so here's a tease for those of us still wanting them.

Cosmos (with Payload) (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/generations-classics-44/tfws-generations-autobot-cosmos-with-payload-gallery-now-online-179206/)

Swerve (with Flanker) (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/generations-classics-44/tfws-generations-swerve-with-flanker-gallery-now-online-179212/)

...please tell me that they're coming in Australia...

[Sinnertwin]

I'd like to think so, but considering we haven't received any new Generations Legends, Deluxes or Voyagers...

I bet we won't even get the AOE Generations toys.

[Ultra Mackness]

I had to import the universe version of Cosmos and I'm doing my best not to be won over by this new version, but it's getting tougher - gee he looks good!

TEASING US WITH THIS!

[Ravagecat]

Have I really missed the boat on getting these two for a decent price?? :eek: There are plenty of scalpers out there asking 3-4 times the original cost but this is crazy :mad:
Does anyone know if Hasbro plans on making more of these guys so I can get them for a reasonable price from our regular HK dealers or BBTS??

[Sinnertwin]

The US market is still waiting for availability from Hasbro. As for the Asia retailers, that'll depend on their availabilty & if they choose to restock :)

[UltraMarginal]

DO NOT GIVE IN TO SCALPERS.

the more regularly we cave and buy stuff because we don't know if it's coming out here in a month or two, the more they will hoard future releases making it harder and harder for us to buy items at retail price, either through import or local purchase.

Yeah no worries..I'm gunna hold off in the hopes that the US get their supply. :rolleyes:
As for the scalper on ebay who has more than 10 of each, maybe I should tell them to use Cosmos to take Swerve for a fly around Uranus :D

Or we could all send him a meaningless question about it and waste a whole heap of his time. I've suggested this before and been shot down on 3 seperate forums. I nearly got banned from eBay once for PM'ing a guy and calling him a scalper to his face.

[Gofigure]

Guys check the usual collecting sites as word is these may end being in short supply.

Probably an idea to get them while you can online

Only place I can find 'em is eBay, $38 shipped for Swerve, $36 shipped for Cosmos. Could be way worse, but it's still not good. :(

[Gofigure]

Yeah found the same seller......dropped 70 plus on 2 x cosmos. Don't want to miss out on him

An update from Toyfair on what happened to Cosmos and Swerve. According to Youtube reviewer Baltmatrix in this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZBj4hJlb1s) where he discusses the Toyfair announcements he says that a Hasbro employee said Cosmos and Swerve are coming and the reason they only got released in Asia at first was Hasbro didn't order enough copies of Swerve and Cosmos.

Poor Cosmos always gets snubbed locally. We pretty much missed out on the last 'legends' Cosmos (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/universe-classics-20-29/transformers-universe-2009-product-images-166814/) that was released 4 years ago and now this one it seems :( :mad:

[AJ_Prime]

After seeing them both on display at the toy fair I'm pretty confident they will see a wider release, and as the supply floods the market the price should come down.

As others have said, don't give in to scalpers, wait for the market to karma the hell out of these guys.

[DELTAprime]

Swerve, Cosmos, Tailgate and Shrapnel are all available to preorder now at BBTS. Swerve and Cosmos are dated for April, Tailgate and Shrapnel are dated for May.

Scalpers wouldn't be around if certain people didn't have this "i must have my toy" mentality.

[reillyd]

I can understand Cosmos selling out, because few people would want JUST swerve, so the only way is to sell them as sets.

Given our lackluster HASBRO AU dropping the ball so often, I can't take the risk of waiting for it on the pegs

[DELTAprime]

Finally, Cosmos and Swerve are in my POL and at a reasonable price. Alls well that ends well.
