HTS Special Edition Dragstrip Is Up For Preorder!

Whirly things of death can be very beneficial in daily life - You can use it to cut the grass; stir cake batter; and blow away dead leaves.

Prime really doesn't look all that different. Not enough for another purchase. They should've painted him as Motormaster, I mean, "Decepticon Motormaster".

$16 FOR REPAINTED DELUXES?!?!?!? HAVE HASBRO LOST THIER FLIPPING MINDS?!?!?!? Still, I like Prime's new paint job better than the old one, and the packaging is nice.

Dragstrip. Must. Have.

Seconded.

Well I guess I shouldn't have jumped the gun and ordered yesterday. Does anyone know if Hasbro will adjust preorders? No big deal I guess, but worth a shot.

Does HTS ship to Canada or is it US Exclusive?

I'm really like that Overkill, and I fear aftermarket markup will be worse than paying for excess shipping through HTS.

I pre-ordered mine, if it does end up a very small run I really don't want to pay the aftermarket value on this one. Will look great next to Wildrider when she shows up from Japan.

Here's to hoping we can see the rest of the car Stunticons as repaints, there are suitable molds now out for Universe, and a new Motormaster, I just can't see a Prime repaint taking his place very well.

Sweet. Picked up two of each and that Dispensor TFM Robot Heroes HTS exclusive. One set for me and the other for a friend of mine. Being outside the US is tough since HTS won't ship to me, but my brother is in KY so he's got my back on this. Pays to have family who support my addiction

Others posters seem to believe that they will be available in OZ but not the UK. Hard to say. I am sure that Hasbro won't carry it in retail stores being a US HTS exclusive. Hasbro CANADA does not have an online store like the US so I would dare to say they will not be heading north anytime soon.

Well, I suppose I need to find another way to get one...

GRR i live in the uk and they don't ship there
i must have a DragStrip no matter what...

anyone kind enough to help a fellow seibertron member out here?
retail price + shipping then + a little extra for your services
i have paypal with a comfirmed address 2

any help would be greatly appreciated

Dragstar is way too cool.. although I must say.. some repaints seem to have an affinity for bright yellow these days.

At a price range of $15.99 each, I wonder... why so high? Is there something special about the contents the toy comes with, besides just a new paint job with a fancy black box?

It's limited. At this time they have no more than 800 pieces of each. Not sure if they are holding any back or not.

Ahh yes. It's limited. Now I see why the price is where it's set. Thanks Tigertracks 24!

I look at the $16 price and think "bargain"!

800 pieces of each is not that many at all...

I could do with help too.

only 800 pieces, and consider that the Botcon 07 set had about 1400 sets made and it sold out really fast.

$16 is a fine bargain compared to what the markup will be for these later.
