When and where will Bumblebee be available for pre-order in Australia?
My primary preference would be Saviers' Toys, but they have no listing for him at the moment.
Does anyone know of any Australian preorders for Bumblebee Earthrise?
I'm hoping to walk into Kmart to get him.
That's how I got Cliffjumper, so maybe if I can't find a preorder, he'll actually be in store.
But in this specific case, I would prefer to leave nothing to chance and guarantee a delivery of this toy at some undetermined release date.
It's a bit too early to tell at the moment. Looks like you'll just have to wait it out but hopefully you can secure that CHUG Bumblebee you were after soon.
Traditionally it takes a little while after the reveals before pre-orders go up. And Savier's tends to be a little slower still with the pre-orders what with how they get their stock (basically they have some solid personal connections) and because their suppliers are in China. Which is, you know, a bit trickier to get things from these days than it used to be.
If you're really worried about it and set on Savier's, send them a message and they'll let you know what's going on and probably make sure to keep one for you when the order comes up if you ask nicely.
One thing to note is that Bumblebee is an officially licensed vehicle (Volkswagen Beetle) unlike every other WFC release so far. Goes to show they really couldn't do it without VW but also VW is happy to work with Takata/Hasbro.
It might be bit early. They've got to work out where they'll be able to source from.Quote:

Or VW is happy to work with Paramount and Netflix (and Hasbro benefits as a side effect?)Quote:

But just out of curiosity, did Bumblebee ever have a gun before he became a Pretender?
The one in the picture is just Cliffjumper's rifle assemblage reused.
