Mods - If this has already been posted somewhere, please delete or merge :)

I received an email about this yesterday.

"It is an official licensed Transformers G1 Convoy Optimus Prime PVC Vinyl figure.
It require a few steps to assembly. It stands about 1 m tall !!

The head contains a pair of USB powered speakers so that you can connect any audio source to the head."

The email stated "if you have any questions regarding this item, please contact us immediately".

I have replied asking what the price will be and it's release date.

When I get a response, I will post it here to let everyone know.

I'd buy it for the gun, but that's about it.

Nice find spootage.

Even at Forbidden Planet's price, it would be approx. AU$450 give or take, which when thinking about it isn't all that bad. Out of my budget though.

Unable to check exact shipping cost cause you need a login for checkout. It does say 5.50 pound but I wouldn't imagine international shipping would be taken into account.

The new RK newsletter advertises this as a March 2010 release (subject to change) for anyone that can afford it. Apparently it is limited to 500 pieces. They are also asking for a 10% deposit. Start saving :)
