Transformers product Qs for Hasbro AU.

[griffin]

Now that it seems that we can't rely on Hasbro US to respond to any of our Global Questions, this one (stickied) topic will be used for asking about Australian related product and issues.

I will be referring to the AUS exclusives release status topic when asking about future product here, but if you have anything specific that you want asked (that the local branch can answer), post it here.

The replies each month (hopefully) will then be posted in their own topic.

Standard disclaimer with this - the info given is as accurate as possible at the time it is given, but can change at any time. And, they have the right to refuse answering any question or stop receiving questions completely (or change any part of this arrangement). Since they are trying to reduce the level of fan/adult-collector 'hounding' of their Customer Service department, their answers would not be up for further discussion before the next month's submission, and they are likely to say that to anyone who contacts them about any of their answers here.
The idea of this is that it hopefully benefits us both (the fandom and Hasbro) in some way, or leads to better things for us fans from them.

The December submission:

Are we getting any of the following here:
- Movie Scouts 2-packs - Windy City Chase(Slapdash/Trenchmouth) Road Rival Showdown (Beachcomber/Deadlift)
- Animated Arcee, Cybertron Ratchet (US TRU excl)
- TF2 Movie Robot Replicas (not new, but should have been released months ago if we were getting them)
- Black recolour of the Masterpiece Optimus figure (just released in Japan). Were you looking at importing it through Target like 2 previous ones (Ultra Magnus, Optimus w/ trailer)?


Also, you mentioned last month that we will be getting the NEST 2-pack (with Bumblebee and Soundwave). Does that mean we will also have access to the Mail-Away Ravage that the Americans are getting, or will we get the European-packed release that doesn't have the Mail-Away offer?

Any changes to the status of the following:
- 93420 Movie 2 Battle Pack (Gathering at the Nemesis 3-pack) TRU (Nov release - Not out yet)
- 93357 Movie 2: Voyager Exclusive (Fire deco Fallen) (TBC, originally slated for NOV)
- Movie Constructicons Legends set - Target (MAR/APR)
- Movie Nest Bumblebee Vs Soundwave 2-pack - Market wide
- Movie Legends 2-packs (Bbee/Shadowstriker, Smokescreen/Starscream, Rally Mudflap/Offroad Skids) – Target
- Movie 2 'Straightaway Shootout' (Legends Ironhide, Mudflap, Runamuck, Swerve, Sparkcrusher) - not at this stage
- Movie 2 'Autobot Strike Mission' (Breakaway, Longarm, Rampage, Sideways) - not at this stage
- Movie 2 Nebular Starscream - Unknown
- Universe Minicon 10-pack - Unknown

Does it contain new molds? or just recolours like the 12 pack?
