    I wouldn't bank on that, my SDCC Excl Taco Deadpool box had that printed on it as well and I think it's highly unlikely that will come over here. due to it being excl to SDCC apparently.

    Stranger things have happend though.

    Back on topic, I must say it looks a LOT nicer than I thought it would look. I quite like that Pixel camo print, but I think the body should have been a darker green than it is at the moment.

    Still, not a complete waste of plastic.

    Oh and whats that rhyme? "Blue and green should not be seen, unless there's something in between"

    hint hint.

    I wish Universe Acid Storm was that shade of green.

    I really should create an FAQ for this site... and put this one on it, because it gets asked almost every month. (I might put a post in the Matrix section for people to refer to or direct others to that ask this)


    It is not a guarantee that it is being released here.
    Packaging and production runs are only done in groups - USA (which we get here and in NZ), Europe (with several languages - we sometimes get excess stock dumped here), and sometimes Non-USA Americas (with French and Spanish for Canada and Mexico). Not sure about Hasbro Hong Kong though, as they should have a big enough market there now to warrant their own packaging, but items from there are still just USA versions with no HK details on them.

    The AUS & NZ distribution addresses on the American Hasbro Transformers products are just part of the standard template for THEIR packaging, just in case their items are released here (at the same time as in America, or later on clearance), because we don't get unique packaging/production, as it would add more to the cost per unit.

    When the Hasbro US people are designing the packaging of different toy items, they may not know if it is a regular item or a limited item that is exclusive to a store or convention.

    Basically, since we don't have our own packaging/production run, it doesn't hurt to add it on the packaging somewhere just in case, so for the packaging people, it is just better to add it, than to not have it and cost Hasbro AUS time & money later putting address stickers on every item if it did end up getting released here or in NZ.


    (Saying all that, it is funny to see the AUS & NZ details on Universal Studios packaging, which actually has the Universal Studios label on the packaging instead of just a sticker like SDCC, so can never be released here... unless there is a Universal Store somewhere in Australia I'm not aware of)
