(correction) Skids or Jolt WILL BE in Aus
Just rang Hasbro after having a huge rant at them from they originally told me.
Sorry Sir Jolt and Skids ( Autobot Skids ) , will not be released at this time in the deluxe model.
Anyone wanna do a Group order from the USA?

I know we shouldn't jump the gun here, but....
It would be a stupid move, on there part not to release characters that were in the movie at least "even if it was a very minor one"
It could be probably due to, they are unable to get a supply at this stage?

Don't get me started on the validity of anything Hasbro AU says...
And anyone who has Skids has imported him or brought him back from Botcon.

Yep my Skids is BotCon fresh.
Zaul, who exactly are you talking to at Hasbro? Are you just ringing their general customer service line?
Deluxe Jolt is a wave four/five (depending which list you go by) toy and has not been released anywhere yet. FAB Jolt is available now. There is a Deluxe Skids & Mudflap (in Ice-cream truck mode) in the same wave as Deluxe Jolt, but those toys are not expected to be on sale anywhere until September.
The Skids/Chromia/Wheelie wave appears to be skipped at the moment, but given it features two prominent characters from the movie I doubt we won't get it.

I just spoke to the general hasbro person, but she asked around and put me on hold, they all said the same thing.
At this time we have no plan.
So here's what I'm considering.
We put together a bulk order.
IceCream Mudflap/Skids.
Skids
Jolt ( If we can find him released anywhere ).
And Order a huge load of them to Ozformers. I'll chip in my $50.

Ring them up again and ask if they will release one of the toys that we know are already on shelves, i wouldn't be surprised if they said that's not coming out either!

That doesn't mean they wont get them. That just seems to be the generic response for a far off productOriginally Posted by Zaul
