I wouldn't get my hopes up to walk in to Walmart and see these guys on the shelf just yet. From what I've read they are supposedly going to be available on Hasbro's online store on the 25th.
Unless somebody's actually called the hotline # and heard the message,
this is just a rumor until I see it for myself.
Didn't Hasbro have a press release declaring their official release would be in June. This could be an online promotion by Hasbro to
get a feeling of what the projected sales could be.

I just got off the phone with an actual human by calling the 800 number from HasbroToyShop.com (1-800-408-0052).

I told him I just got the new catalog in the mail yesterday, and it had the Transformers Animated toys in it, and I asked when they would be available to order.

His answer: "Well, they are not available to order right now, but they should be in a couple of days or maybe a week."

id be very suprised if hasbro ships before the release date.

I'd be even more suprised if these were in stores this month. there are movie toys filling (warming??) pegs and no signs of room being made or animated signs being put up.

it would be great if hasbro did take order and ship next week, if that is the case i wonder if this was alway on the cards or has somebody recognised the online fervour for the toys?? and would that even generate a response??

anyway the sooner these are out the better, those movie toys are just soooo dull, abit like those usually awful movie tie in videogames, over detailed, over polished, over technical but beaten into submission by far simpler, far more elegant games like galaga! animated is my galaga.

Primus, I hate the whole "Pre-Order" trend. I've started refusing to do so on my video games now that I live in a metro area and I'm seriously going to pass on ordering TFS if it's the same deal. It's just giving the company a loan.

Seeing as these are technically a new product line for Hasbro, I don't think they can come out so soon.

Places like Target have to put up new planograms and DCPI numbers for a product so different from the movie line.
