We have our first overseas sighting of Transformers Prime Voyager Wave 3's Dreadwing thanks to Taiwan based Tumblr user peng-ko. A good indication that Wave 3 will start showing up on domestic retail shelves soon.

Ooh, not too shabby! I'd give it few days or 2 weeks at most for it to arrive to other parts of the world.

And from the looks of it, the sword has a peg at the side similar to prid optimus prime's sword, just looks more accurate as to what he uses in the cartoon.

Ooh, pretty!

Now, as Wave 2 (Voyagers) hasn't really hit the UK, and we're still having issues with Wave 2 Deluxes, although some there have been some Wave 3 sightings.. I'd say this might show up for Christmas.

I remember the label/tag in front of the Dreadwing on display at SDCC stating a July '12 release date. I've been wondering when he would start showing up. Perhaps that is the time frame that Hasbro starts shipping them to distributors and retailers. That would make sense that he's just now beginning to show up because I've noticed about a month delay between Hasbro's date and when he's spotted in stores. I guess I'll start the hunt sometime over the next 2-3 weeks!

Oh yes! Dreadwing is my 2nd favorite 'con in Prime, just behind Breakdown. I can't wait for this thing to come to the U.S

Alriiight! I've passed up Cyberverse Dreadwing a few times for this version so I hope it's not a disappointment...'nuff said! :VEHI:

If he pops up in domestic stores, I'm getting him. Kinda disappointed with Hasbro not releasing Breakdown (as of yet), so for the time being the Prime toyline isn't my main priority.

Its name and picture still need to be added to the PRODUCTS LISTINGS page so we can start alerting Seibertronians what stores its been spotted.
