    Default Transformer 'Spastic' cancelled for UK

    Is anyone surprised by this...

    New for Christmas, the 'Transformer Spastic' - but makers scrap UK launch over fears it may cause offence

    Expect the same for Australia.

    Unlikely that it will be released here under the name Spastic, or at all. IMO, I think we will get missed altogether, so best bet would be to import anyway.

    Well, it's only a repaint anyway. No loss really.
