Same, I would prefer an official release for sure..if only Has-Tak had a bit more drive..

Those digibashes look pretty good, but the toy doesn't scream $200 to me.
I pre-ordered mine from here. They are based in Malaysia. They do POL too.

Wow the alt mode looks good.... so everything looking great so far ... hoping the right colour and plastic used is good!
Interesting... never knew about this site. Although, it looks like they have some serious price errors - e.g. FP Diesel for RM50 (AUD18), and full set of the FP not-Stunticons for RM400 (AUD140)??? That's just NOT POSSIBLE, given they haven't flagged it as a KO. Anyone confirm this??
EDIT - Whoops, my bad... those are the pre-order deposits. A rather unorthodox way of listing these things it seems to me...
FT-04 looks to work out a lot better from there than the US sites. Any idea what the postage is like?
Edit: Looks like it's been updated to say Malaysia only, for now.
I think Hasbro/Takara might be more inclined to make MP Dinobots after Transformers 4.
Its probably optimistic thinking so i'll just wait it out.
I doubt that. There seems to be a retailer fallout after a movie cycle finishes. It started with ROTF but specially so with DOTM movie toys shelf warming badly (1001 Bumblebees and non toy related junk). TF Prime appears to not have been so hot either (could be wrong).
Tak-Tom also seem to have a fair bit of a list of MPs to make so that will keep them occupied for the next couple of years.
