We have received information that some of the highly sought after Transformers Prime "First Edition" and Movie Trilogy figures will be seeing a release in the near future. The catch is these will be at a higher price point and only released in the Asian market. The Movie All Star case consists of all Ques, and the "First Edition" case will feature Arcee, Cliffjumper, and Vehicon.
1) Movie Trilogy - solid Que
2) First Edition
- Arcee x 2
- Cluffjumper x3
- Vehicon x 3

So Hasbro's answer to the cry for the First Edition toys that didn't make it to the states... is to continue selling them in Asia?

Well, at least it gives us another shot. Maybe I'll be able to get on board with Vehicon this time around.

Hmm I might have another chance to pick up FE Arcee 
. Guess I'll decide once it's released in retail.

Just keep in mind you would be importing these, if you live outside of Asia that is. Still nice to have another bite at the apple for those who missed out. If Que has the G1 head and deco I'll definitely import him.

Given he was four per case of eight first time around, I think it's a great desicion by Hasbro, not including Bee.
Maybe they're finally listening?

I'm in South Korea and I love this news. I wasn't satisfied with RiD cliffjumper and haven't got my Arcee or Vehicon yet (they are on their way right now). Getting the FE will be awesome. If I can stock up on Que's I will let you guys know and won't be a hideous scalper. FYI, the TFP Bumblebee/Starscream two pack is out here in force if anyone missed out on it.

Positive note: vehicon is getting a Hasbro release and could be cheaper on eBay
Negative note: etheir way this goes down we Americans will still be dropping a lot of money for the toys
So if you dont have the FE figures I don't see their price getting lowered anytime soon

Y'know up until today I still wish they would make Leader DOTM Megatron x_x...Such a dumb move not to make him. Michael Bay finally give them a decent Earth-based alt mode and they refuse to make one when the past 2 is based on crappy-half assed cybertronian alt mode -_-...
Sighh...I guess we can always hope for Leader Prime Megs. Seriously if they skip that too...It's clear that Hasbro's lead designer hate Megatron.

If this is correct, the good news is that more of these figures flooding the market should keep the scalping prices down, or at least the rest of the world can order online for slightly inflated prices.
I am still holding out hope that these releases aren't limited to the Asian market and can be had by North America retail. The DOTM Que cases, however... just doesn't sound right.

Well, can't say I care too much about the Asian only release. I have FE Cliff and Arcee and I have no desire to have Que if it's the original head. I'm waiting for PRID Vehicon since I like the design better.
Glad they're doing something though so the prices get knocked down for those who want them. Shame they won't bring them off the Asian continent :/ Importing fee's can be a doozy. Makes it an added hassle for those who want them, but at least the supply and opportunity will be increased.

It's pretty silly that people are bitching about this. The Asian market deserves these as much as anywhere else, I'm just glad that someone like me will get a second chance to own some of these. Even if you have to import them, it really shouldn't cost much more than what a deluxe will be this fall.
Just think about it like this, for a small premium, much smaller than what these cost now, you can get the FE figure you want and dodge worrying over if Hasbro will ever get these out or not. It's much better than being that much of a cheapskate and refusing to buy anything you can't find at Wal-Mart.

I honestly like the PRID Prime mold, but yeah the translucent bits are a bit meh. And the gun looks much better without the led part sticking off of it. Plus, the thing can mount on his shoulder! Points for that alone.
PRID SS is basically on par with FE SS. I mean, scale-wise FE is better. But the overall aesthetic is about even; both molds have their pros and cons.
FE Bulkhead is nothing but awful though.

8X Que? I now declare Que as the new shelfwarmer! 
Apparently I've been seeing the DOTM Trilogy prime alot. Hopefully Que does become that overstocked, that he's so common and I can wait for the next 30% off sale.

PRID prime is nowhere near better with his floppy legs and horrible back kibble. His abs have no color he's missing do much red his shoulders have parts of the bumper on it and his gun is crap no matter if the battery pack is on it or not. And as far as PRID SS being on par with FE SS not even close PRID SS waist dose not snap it it just slightly plugs in and any movement and it pops right out the ankle kibble is bad in jet mode there is a big hinge on the nose cone that ruins the shape of the front of the jet. The feet stick out the back of the plane and I'm not saying they are bad figures but they are nowhere near as good and I have them all in hand not just looking at pictures or reviews because a lot of high end reviewers that people like to watch get sponsored by toy sites to sell the product and won't make the out for what it really is crap

Please let them re-release Bulkhead... I don't want to have to resort to the PRID one. D: It's not terrible, it's just nowhere near as nice.
Haha, I honestly think it's pretty bad after seeing it in person. Optimus' PRID figure isn't that bad, but that backpack and those transparent parts...
I have both FE and RID Optimus and bulkhead and the FE craps on RID and FE SS is better than voyager RID SS
I honestly like the PRID Prime mold, but yeah the translucent bits are a bit meh. And the gun looks much better without the led part sticking off of it. Plus, the thing can mount on his shoulder! Points for that alone.
PRID SS is basically on par with FE SS. I mean, scale-wise FE is better. But the overall aesthetic is about even; both molds have their pros and cons.
FE Bulkhead is nothing but awful though.

First off, punctuation and proper spacing are both quite important.
Second, I don't mean to imply that PRiD Prime is better, it's just not bad. I wish I had FE Prime, but that's just not going to happen unfortunately.
As for SS, my opinion stands. I do think the aesthetic of the FE is *slightly* better, but from a mechanical standpoint, they both have issues in both modes.

Ya sorry writing is not one of my strong points but I can take your car apart fix what Evers wrong with it a put it all back together same with electronics lol I just suck with using punctuations sorry. And if you have both SS in hand you would see what I'm talking about. I still like the figure its just not as good they were very lazy with some of their engineering
