As above really

I found one at the TRU store in Stevenage, Herts, this morning. They retail at £59.99, which is roughly comparable to buying the figure separately at UK prices, and in line with the "HasbroUK exchange rate". Interestingly, the packaging is not a multi-language "euro-box", but in English only, manking me wonder how widespread these will be.

They are only two to a case, there was one case on the floor (the only one I saw), which I had to open myself, none physically on the shelves.

The other thing of not was the "Sideways Vs Wheelie" 2-pack was also on dsiplay. It wasn't priced and seemed to contain the"dark" variant, but I'm not sure if this has been sighted before?

Damn! Damn! Damn! UK gets these before here in Ohio!!! hasbro distrubtion sucks......Sucks badly!! Hear me Hasbro suck it long and suck it hard......

Sideways vs Wheelie?

Do you mean Blowpipe, the blue repaint of '07 Dropkick?

No mate, definately Wheelie, it seem sto be a European exclusive re-pack. There is absolutely no advantage in buying this over the separate releases, whic were also on sale.

Interesting. This looks like its sole purpose is move excess stock.

Good call, I hadn't thought of that. We often get repacked 2-packs here, that other places don't see, such as TFA:Ratchet/Bumblebee & 2007 Movie Longarm & B/Bee, the "Towed To Safety" pack. Sometimes they are more expensive than buying them individually!

Very nice scoop. Thanks for sharing these photos with us!

You took the words right outta my mouth.

More by luck than judgement, right place, right time. I've added a photo of the Wheelie/Sideways 2-pack to the first post, having completely forgotten I'd taken one in the store

Hehe, you know what they say about luck when opportunity meets up with preparedness. Right place, right time, and access to a camera.

Seibertron.com member Rodimus Minor has found the ToysRus exclusive "Meeting at the Nemesis" box set at ToysRus Stockport for GBP 59.99. This box set contains an unchanged Movie 2007 Voyager class Megatron, unchanged ROTF Voyager Class Fallen and a blue ROTF Deluxe Soundwave.

The Nemesis 3 pack or that 2pack?

Seibertron.com member Pretender Skywarp has found and purchased the ToysRus exclusive 3 figure box-set "Gather ing at the Nemesis". The box-set contains Movie 2007 Voyager Megatron, ROTF Voyager Fallen and a G1 homage repaint of ROTF Deluxe Soundwave. The box set's price is GBP 59.99.
Strangely the box is not the usual European box type as it is in English only and not multi-lingual.


He has also found an odd 2 pack containing ROTF Deluxe Wheely and ROTF Deluxe Sideways both toys are unchanged from their normal retail release, the Sideways does appear to be the darker more metallic variant though. This set did not feature a price.

Below are two photos Pretender Skywarp took.

OMG! That would such an easy pass for me.

It's a repainted vesion not the same as the regular 07 release. More like a non metallic version of the Best Buy colours.

It's exactly like the pictures from UK above. I am really not interested in it..so I didn't think much of it...sorry...or should I say congrats...it's in the States too!!

£59.99 = $100 US. Twice as much as what North America will pay. Same old same old. Cheaper to buy it from HK and have it shipped. Quote low value to avoid VAT.

Wheelie vs Sideways? what the hell? How does that fit in? I still have yet to see these. I dont care about the Sideways one since i have both molds but the Nemesis one im kinda interested in. But then again still havent seen Longhaul or activator Soundwave either.

It's been covered here many a time, but Hasbro seem to think that $1 = £1

right now that three pack is my only hope of getting the fallen. I CANT FIND HIM DAMN IT!

Wheelie vs. Sideways; that's bizarre.

Further to the above, Rodimus Minor over at the UK sightings thread, reports that the Wheelie 2-pack is £22.99, about a £3 saving on buying them solo.

ebay - $25.00 no shipping....save the $14.00. I have one open, transformed once, I'd be willing to part with..sitting in a tub right now...not sure how it would work out...shipping would be $7.00(probably)...and then what for the figure....sounds like ebay $25 might be best. I got some other stuff I'd be willing to part with, might make it more worth while.. pm me if interested.
