Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

I don't ever recall seeing it spelt like that before. It's written as Powerglide on the actual Japanese box too. Obviously no point spelling it with the r as a search will miss it. Just my 2c

Happens all the time on eBay. It's the seller's loss because they lose out on potential bidders. But sometimes you can find good deals on auctions where the item's mispelt because there's often bugger all competition!

Is Transformers Animated showing in Japan? Or if Japanese fans are fansubbing torrents/distros what do they think of it? Just curious.

afaik it's not out in Japan, and fansub distribution doesn't really happen in Japan because they have ultra-tight copyright laws there; copyright violation is also often viewed as vulgar amongst fans there. That's why Japanese fan sites rarely even have screen captures... it's mostly text and original fan art, toy photography etc. e.g.: Autobase Aichi
