Some bad news disgruntled brits, the House of Commons has passed a new law that makes it illegal for the sale of replica guns in the UK from the end of April. This means, if you are going to buy MP-05 Megatron, make sure it is before the end of April or you could be in a lot of trouble.

Megatron is coming out on 16th March, so you have 45 days for t to arrive. Plenty of time.

Also, we may be in luck, since he is oversized, he may avoid any legal problems.

Does anyone know yet whether Megatron will be packaged in alt or robot mode? I would have thought that if the figure is in his robot form that there would be no issue to import him?

In any case, that news does suck.
