and got the cheap postage ..which took around a week to come
I got both mine from Robot Kingdom. I was also the first on this board and the other TF board I post at to get mine, which is weird, but kinda cool. (First by hours to a day basically. So nothing substantial, but a bit amusing).Quote:

I have a feeling they may be on back-order for Prowl, at least though.
I can summarise it: Prowl = Burnt in the face by the Ark Of The Covenant, Raiders Of The Lost Ark style. He's THAT awesome.Quote:

There's also Soundwave, but I don't think anyone cares about that one at all, or you'd think SOMEONE on the board would have mentioned it. But no, it's like noone cares about the local release of MP Soundwave. ;)
:p:DQuote:

Yep got my email
More pics of Smokescreen, now that it is arriving at people's homes.
received it! interesting how this only has the coin and not the gift (rocket launcher,etc)

I don't think Smokescreen was supposed to have any JP Amazon exclusives (which Hasbro HK includes with theirs). Bluestreak and Prowl had a missile launcher each so that one could have a pair if you bought both toys.
Since there is already a complete pair from those two toys, and Smokescreen has different shoulder cannons that come with the toy, I'm don't think there were any exclusive extras for Amazon Japan and Hasbro Asia.
You are correct. I've preordered mine from Amazon JP and there's no extra bonus stuff.
Mine just arrived from RK this morning!

I just love his colour ....it certainly standout
I've noticed that everyone who's received their MP Smokescreen has also got the coin, so I'm assuming it's from Hong Kong. It only came out on Amazon Japan yesterday... I'm hoping mine will get shipped this weekend. But yeah, funny how some non-Japanese retailers are receiving theirs before those in Japan. :o
TakaraTomy's release dates in Japan are only a guide for HK Hasbro's release dates of their products, particularly lately.
It used to be aligned well, when Hasbro HK were just releasing the occasional JP item to their own market, but now Hasbro HK have become more independent in recent years, with their own products, their own bonus items, and now their own release dates.
Maybe originally, they had an agreement that would prevent them from releasing a TakaraTomy item before it is released in Japan.... but since Hasbro HK would be getting their stock shipped direct from the factory anyway, instead of via Japan, if there is no agreement, Hasbro HK could start releasing their items whenever they get them (like Hasbro US does).
Got Prowl and Smokescreen sitting in my POL with BBTS, and had Red Alert show up a few days ago :). Looking at getting Bluestreak but want to find him cheaper than BBTS sells him for - sadly Robot Kingdom has sold out :( Any suggestions of cheap places to find him are welcome :)
Wheres the review thread?
I don't think anyone has started one yet.Quote:
