I'm pretty Sure Wal-Mart will have them. As will The major department stores, Palacio y Liverpool o Fabricas de Francia depending on where in Mexico you live.
Also Chedraui has ben heard to carry Tf stuff. so i'm sure they'll want in on the movie stuff.
En donde en México vives???

I know there are cultural differences but is it wrong when I think of Transformers in Mexico I see Optimus Prime in a sombrero?

Only if Optimus Prime's new job is as a Mariachi, in a band.

I'm not sure if I should feel sorry for Mexicans being far behind or curse them because they can get discontinued stuff.

Where did you see R.I.D. recently? The only place i know of that still carries some of those is a chain store/restaurant called Sanborns. Its always really behind on stuff, and will keep stuff on the shelves until its sold, they'll never piut anything on clearance either. WalMart in Mexico on the other hand is not too bad. They are maybe 2 or 3 months behind on normal lines. Movie lines are always there a good month before the movie.
The only thing left are a couple of classics Mirage's and the LOC's
I just hope they put the Movie stuff out soon. The release date for the movie in mexico as far as i know is July 20th. so they should start putting out stuff, in a couple of weeks.

ahhh yes the infamous Julio Cepeda. They seem to be way behind in stock.
Unfortunately the only one near me, never has anything.
I don't really go to Monterrey, but i wouldn't mind another set of RID Prime and Magnus if they are at a reasonable price. I'll check their online store, to see what they have.
