Are the TRU Reissue Insecticons out?

Posted by muswp1 Thu Oct 08, 2009 8:23 pm

Weapon: Double-Barreled Assault Missile Launcher
I just ran across two US based E-Bay auctions claiming to have the TRU Insecticons in hand. Have they been released yet? I thought they were coming out either in November or December.

They are out in Texas, and working their way westward. I want to know when they hit the west coast!

Once again, Hasbro's distribution confuses all! Don't worry though, they should be showing up all over North America by the end of October..

I wouldn't put any faith in their distribution, I STILL haven't seen Arcee anywhere.

Well, color me wrong everyone!

Sorry!

I've been so dismissive of this reissue, but considering how much the TFC reissues of the Insecticons go for, it's a cool deal for those that missed out back then.

But, no energon cubes...!?

What the hell, I'm going to be out of work for the next couple of months but if TRU UK has some stock in January when I go back to the nursery I'll be looking at picking up maybe 4-6 sets to build a clone army with.
