I thought toys weren't meant to be sold prior to the retail launch date. Hasbro (and I'm sure other toy manufacturers) print the trade embargo date on the outside of cases instructing retailers not to sell the toys until the embargo date.
I remember when the Revenge of the Sith toys came out, this retailer I knew had them in his store well in advance and he showed them to us, but of course, he wasn't allowed to actually sell them until the embargo date. So he organised a private Revenge of the Sith party in his store on the evening of the day before, so when the clock hit midnight he could sell them to us!! I remember going in and we all placed dibs on what toys we wanted... then we played Star Wars Miniatures for the next couple of hours till 00:00 -- then presto! Money was exchanged and cards were opened!

There is one particular Ebay dealer in HK that claims to already have Leader Sentinel and Bumblebee for under US$100 each shipped... and we've seen a Walmart in America already putting some Legends figures out on shelves (which would have left Asia 6-8 weeks ago) - so it is possible.
For the first movie, Leader toyswere on sale the week the movie came out for somewhere between $70-$85 dollars. In fact most of the movie toys were on sale at that time.
For ROTF I'm not sure if the same thing happened as I already had the whole first wave of toys from BotCon.
I've been trying to send a fax to tf collectors club with my details like they asked and everytime I try it comes up with the number I entered being wrong.
This is what I enter, 0015 to open the line for international faxes. 01 for America the country it's going to and then 817-448-9843 the fax number they gave me.
Am I doing something wrong? I emailed them to double check that the number is correct and it is, I also tried 0011 to dial for international faxes because the lady at the post office said it was that number and not 0015 but that didn't work. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I'm pretty sure you don't need to send them your details just for membership. I haven't yet, and I'm getting membership emails.
I was planning on scanning the documents and sending them a pdf of the scan. the only Fax machine I have ready access to is at work and I don't thinik they'll be particulrly impressed if I send one international. I'd suggest emailing them and asking if a pdf would be satisfactory.
