    I rang up 10 Toyworlds in Brisbane, but none claim to have received new TFs stock in ages.... so some southern stores are getting these months before they should.

    I wouldn't be surprised if someone at Hasbro Australia have actually stuffed up (sent the wrong stock from the warehouse)... and gets their butts kicked for it.

    That Epping Toyworld will certainly get in trouble, as the Titans had the embargo date on their boxes. (apparently the Construct-Bots didn't, so you can't fault any store that puts them out straight away)

    After seeing the pics at Toyfair and now these ones, is anyone else thinking that the name "Titans" should not have been used for these toys... as it implies something awesome. (and these are clearly not)

    Hasbro has marvel 12 inch Titan heroes that look very similar

    As someone that works retail and would get my ass handed to me if I put embargoed product on the shelves I have no idea how Toyworld can be so stupid as to so blatantly break embargo. There are going to be some ass kickings handed out.

    Clicked on this thread expecting huge and transformable figures... What a disappointment!
    These are similar to the huge 5 point articulation Iron Man, Spidey, etc toys eh?
    Those aren't moving off shelves and I doubt these would much.
    Won't even bother buying these for my kids.
    How much are they going for here anyway?
