    I was just looking on TF Wiki and it says these are Asia/Australia exclusives (unless people in the US order online at Hasbro Toy Shop). Since when do we get cool stuff when the US don't? Where do we get them from?

    I agree Adzma and I too have seen these on ebay. I'm tempted but the price is so high for a deluxe so if these are to come out in Australia then hopefully it will be around normal deluxe prices, hopefully we'll have confirmation some time soon

    Dragstrip looks awesome! Not too fussed on the others though.

    Would have been nice to see a little extra effort on Dragstrip and a slight retool to give him 4 front wheels.

    Dragstrip is the best one. Overkill is decent and Prime, well his mold really sucks and no amount of paint is going to fix that.

    TFSource have Dragstrip up for $29.95 US, so maybe $43AUS from ebay isn't so bad. Then again, we have seen other TFs cheaper here than overseas, such as Alt Nemesis Prime and Alt Rodimus.

    Guys. Hasbro AU says these will be at retail for $34.95 in the recent Q & A response.

    Yes will be general release. RRP will be $34.99. We expect most product to ship by early next year.

    You mean front wheels, right?

    Overkill is a must-buy for me as I really like the Grimlock mold... the blue/white actually looks better than Grimlock's colour scheme IMO.
    Dragstrip badly needs a visor on that mirage head of his... nothing a little bit of putty can't do

    Dragstrip is probably the only one I will open, but I do love the packaging.
