FOC figures.

[Kitty]

Hi guys,
Curious to know what happened to all the voyager size FOC figures and the cassettes we were meant to get? No blaster, no sound wave (yet his cassettes were in Toys R Us and other stores) and no Grimlock :,( I was hoping to get a Grimlock at a store so I had one ready for Armageddon in October, looks like I'll have to buy one on evil eBay *sigh*

Bad news I'm afraid. Only Soundwave and Soundblaster have been seen in target. Hasbro have said Blaster and Grimlock won't be released here.

Griffin received a response from Hasbro Australia, and put up a list of which current and upcoming toys are expected here.

With regards to the Voyagers specifically, Bidoofdude posted Hasbro's response here.

They are also found in Toyworlds and other independants. Myer also carries Soundwave, not sure about Soundblaster though.

Just read the post, shame in blaster I love blaster as a character, I loved the rock music he would constantly play that 1 track lol. But no springer no blitzwing as well, why does hasbro do this to us?

[Gouki]

Because they seem to thing that the distribution system for the US works just as well here. Which it clearly doesn't but results in way smaller sales, so then we get called a failure and have to suffer through.

This is not news, and the topic has already been raised a few times already. Example.

Please do a search next time.

Use eBay as a last resort, Kitty. Admittedly you may be able to find one cheap, but check all the online stores and the Parramatta Fair next week and if you can't find anything, you can try here and here

According to the report from Griffin, we are apparently getting the Platinum Series Grimlock vs Bruticus pack, so all hope is not lost for Grimmy, at least.

I get almost all my stuff on ebay, its just easier now. Sucks, coz i dont want to pay the shipping prices on the Blaster discs. I just have to hope i can tack them on to another order sometime.
