Hey guys,
Has this been out for awhile? And if so, how likely is it to be at stores? Is it a hard set to find?

Oh this makes me happy. I thought thoughs new ones that look like robotic styal beasts but their original robot modes (the ones that were sold in the Cybertron toy line) were going to be the only Primal and Megarex sold.
I'm verry glad to find out the original toys are comming out again because mine are missing parts and these reissues look more like the cartoon models with the new paint jobs and Primal's lack of a mouth plate.

It has been out as a two-pack for $35-$40 US, but impossible to find now, as the movie toys are starting to flood the shelves.
Best bet is get it online, HLJ seem to like pasting it in the baner directly above this forum.
Whatever. BW never did it for me. But, the Monkey Prime was designed very well, I will say that.
But make mine all robot please. lol

The two TRUs in my area still have a dozen of them between them but the box is different. The one in the picture you linked is the Japanese one.

MY local TRU has millions of these still, and have yet to cut the price. They have obviously stopped selling well, so damn, put them on clearance!

Damn I would have sold you a set for $60 and gave you free shipping
Every TRU I have been in lately has had at least 5 of these sets for $30.

Bah. I don't think I've seen them at all to be honest, for the past months, walmart, toys'r'us, etc. Perhaps my toys'r'us is the suck!
The one i bought on ebay is about 2-3 hours from me so shipping wasnt to bad. Boooo urns I should have waited a day!

Speaking of the reissue...
Does anybody have the new Beast Wars rerelease of Megatron, the one that's flashing in the HLJ banner? It looks like maybe they did a slight resculpt/repaint on the face, but I haven't been able to find a good picture to either confirm or deny it.

That one's based on the
Robot Masters Beast Megatron. Same goes for
Optimus Primal. Mind you, they're part of another reissue series.

Thanks! I would've never figured that out on my own. Seriously.
Meg's head looks tons better with the new paint apps, much more menacing. I may have to reconsider that purchase.

I never saw this set, nor the BWX leader moulds, in Quebec. I guess my TRU just sucks that way. They better get frickn' Soundwave or I'll have to shank someone.
