Reveal the Shield in the UK - General Release?

Motto: "Are those my feet?"
Weapon: 20 Megavolt Stun Rifle
Anyone know if Reveal the Shield will get a domestic release in the UK, maybe canned along with Generations? Im wondering if they will turn up in regular stores or should I pay the extra and buy the imported figures?

Thanks.

Someone call?

Actually the supermarkets are your best bet, Asda an Tesco in particular. So far we have the Wave 1 Deluxes and scouts, although be aware that Windcharger is only shipping two out if a box of twelve!!

RTS stuff hasn't been spotted in any TRU yet :-(

On the Legends front Hasbro have been supplying Wave 2 cases, so there is a range of 6, one each of Megs, Op, BB, Screamer and two Prowls and T' Breakers.

The wave 1 voyagers have been confirmed at UK wholesale by Andy of Kapow toys and the same goes for the Wave 2 Deluxes, but no sightings yet.

Hope that helps :-)

Edit: Forget to mention the Roddy and Cyclonus "Battle in Space" twin pack has also been released, it's currently £16 in Tesco.

@JGR, should have your quote by 2moro.

Between Tesco and Asda I've seen them all. So yes, no point to this post but to back up the rest. I have noticed that Tracks, Jazz and Windcharger won't be around for long.

I think Jazz and Tracks carry over into the next case assortment, but I can't remember where I saw the listing, I'll look for it and post it accordingly.

This us assuming that we get the same assorments as the USA...

Windcharger was in Asda the other day. He was shopping, not sitting on a shelf. None of the others have shown up in my area (Kent). I'm waiting for Kapow.
