We reported several listings for exclusive Transformers products sold on Amazon. As it turns out, them being released for preorder now is to celebrate San Diego Comic Con and all the items can be seen in the SDCC store Amazon has set up for Hasbro. Now, this should not be confused with actual SDCC exclusives, like Throne of the Primes or the Dino Casettes, which will be offered at Hasbro oy Shop and not Amazon.

Instead, this is a place where you can see Blastoff, Repugnus, Punch/Counterpunch and a bunch of Generations and Bumblebee shirts only found on Amazon. Also, regarding Blast Off, while the figure was available for preorder earlier today, the listing was soon turned into "out of stock" and then completely unavailable. We hope it comes back in stock for all you fans to get a copy.

Here is the message Hasbro wanted us to share with you regarding this store:

It’s that time of year again, San Diego Comic Con is upon us! To celebrate Hasbro has partnered with Amazon for an exclusive SDCC store for fans including Transformers shirts and figures, which you can see here:

From the PotP thread:

It wasn't exactly what I meant, but close enough. Do we know for a fact that the actual SDCC exclusives wont be on Amazon? Arcee (Hascon) and Grotusque (NYCC) were on HTS and TRU after all.

All we know is that this store is made to be live concurrent to SDCC, while the actual SDCC exclusives are only available at SDCC.

This is complimentary to SDCC rather than being another place to get the same toys. Its the same as what happened with the SDCC dinobots. Several were available at SDCC and Sludge was instead made available only on amazon.

Shipping is much more reasonable through the store rather than the previous posted links for the separate figures, $103 in total for all 3 figures with shipping/import fees included to U.K. Doubting Amazon UK will ever get them like what happened with Optimus/Orion set.

Still waiting for Amazon UK to have the Nemesis Prime listing back up and running tho that is not looking likely either.
