Hasbro UK confirms: Prime RID Voyager Ultra Magnus, Thundertron, and Skyquake

Posted by Dead Metal Jul 4, 2012 at 11:31am CDT 69,176 views
Seibertron.com member NovaSentinel recently sent an e-mail to Hasbro UK concerning the question if the previously revealed Transformers Prime Voyagers Ultra Magnus, Thundertron and Skyquake would be released in the UK and not just Asia.
This is the reply:
Thank you for your email:

Our Marketing Department have just informed us that an update has been received regarding your enquiry and we are actually planning to bring in RID Voyager Skyquake, Ultra Magnus and Thundertron later in the year. (I'm guessing they are voyager wave 4)

Kind regards

Hasbro UK


Now take this with a grain of salt, since it's from Hasbro UK, this might also confirm a main land European release and a release in US markets.

Stay tuned to seibertron.com for all your Transformers related news!

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

Here's hoping, at least.

Hasbro UK is not Hasbro Europe, just to warn you. Case in point: the UK has Deluxe wave 2 in for over a month, while the mainland is still waiting on it.

If they're getting a UK release, they'll probably get a US release. Also, what about Dreadwing? He needs love, too. :P

it would be stupid not to mass release them, you cant have a main toyline with only a few voyagers. Hasbros really dropping the ball with this toyline, from selection to pricing they have no idea what they are doing.

I keep hearing this, but East Anglia has seen NOTHING.
And I've tried every shop I could think of, from supermarkets to toy stores to miscellanea.

The libe has been out for over six months in the UK, in that time they have released two new deluxes.

He's coming. The next wave after Starscream and Bulkhead (both of which are out now).

Have they been seen in the UK at all? Or is Hasbro UK skipping this wave?

I thought Skyquake was first?

*EDIT* Derp, Dreadwing is indeed first.

They announced Skyquake first back when the toy was in its prototype stages (though, this was even before the First Editions were out), then they switched over to it being Dreadwing instead. It was only recently that we learned that the Skyquake deco wasn't canceled as previously thought.

What do you mean "some"?

I'm still kind on the fence about Ratchet, and have no love for Arcee.

those are the only two new ones that have popped up hereabouts. Ratchet is pretty cool though.

I am not holding my breath that these or other voyagers will make it to us here in the U.S. Even if Hasbro announces they will at SDCC. Until I here about, or see them hitting shelves here, I am making sure I at least preorder the Takara Voyagers Characters I want in my collection.

If things change I may cancel some of my preorders, but for now my preorders stay.

I have preordered the following, as I want these figures for my Prime set for sure:

Breakdown, Nemesis Prime, Ultra Magnus, Skyquake, Dreadwing, and Unicron.

Any others I am willing to take the chance on a U.S. release.

i love how hasblo has decided to screw us over on breakdown.

makes absolutely no sense... especially if they're going to to have a repaint of him that'll be show accurate.. that gives people a reason to buy this mold multiple times.

you'd think after the whole first edition fiasco, they'd steer clear of screwing us over for a while.. looks like they're back up to their old BS.

i swear. i'm at the point where they've put such a sour taste in my mouth, that i'm not even looking forward to any of this stuff. which is a shame, breakdown looks incredible, that unicron looks awesome, skyquake and dreadwing are killer, same with magnus and deluxe ironhide. but i feel like i've lost the itch to NEED these things.

i'm just waiting for december to get here. MP sideswipe, red alert, and soundwave can't come soon enough, same with hot toys dx02 joker and hot toys loki.
