We saw images of Nebular Starscream awhile back, and it was clearly defined that the figure was exclusive to K*Mart. However over in Singapore, it looks like the figures are being sold at Toys'R'Us instead. While there are no K-Marts in Singapore, there might just be a possibility that Nebular Starscream could show up at Toys'R'Us here in North America. Not only does this change the game plan for many seeker collectors, but it also signifies Nebular Starscream's arrival in retail here very soon.

This should round off my collection of Starscreams for a while. The more and more i see of him, the more I like him.

Perhaps, and hopefully for the Leader Class as well.

Here in Mexico some Toys r us exclusives (rarely) and Target exclusives end up being sold at WalMart because we don't have TrU's or Targets. I don't want to spoil things for you, but I don't think Nebular Starscream will be a multistore exclusive. Sorry guys, facts are facts.

This is interesting, the colors and space theme could actually make him a candidate for a custom movie style Blast off....hmmmmm
If it comes near me I'd definitely buy it.

Thanks for confirmation of this. I suspected as much. Fratz. I was SO hoping to avoid setting foot in the dreaded Mart of K. (Not a 'class' thing--I hate their ridiculous markup on toys!)
And every picture I see of him, does make him look more and more...necessary.
Any closer word on US release dates?
HK, (gnaws arm waiting for Leader)

Wow. How would you like to pay those price tags in USD?

This is correct, this is not a multi store exclusive for the US. This often happens when there are Target exclusives in the US they end up at Zeller's in Canada.

As it was stated, several times, we've had exclusives to one store here, but end up in another retailer in another country. Hasbro will go to whomever is willing to carry it.
It's no surprise to see several different store logos on these suckers, just remember where the reports are coming from, to help you differentiate between 'em all.
As for the repaint itself, not my cup of tea. (Even if I liked repaints, I'd pass him up.)
As for Singaporean pricing...OUCH. 'Screamer ends up being $37.46 after conversion. About $15.00 or so over our pricing.
And the Leader Class 2-Pack? YEEOUCH... $144.11 USD. That's a price of $72.06 per figure. Wow.
Okay...next time someone complains about U.S. pricing, they're getting whacked in the head.

At tor r us, the price usually are higher than hobby shops....
Although we can get cheaper takara toys, however Hasbro version of toys usually is more expensive than in US.
