Transformers line releases in UK

Good news for Brits about PCC, Gen, and Masterpiece Screamer, but not so much on the NEST voyagers...

Oh...No wonder I couldn't find Long Haul anywhere! Had to get him from eBay!

The only time I've seen him before is in Forbidden Planet in Leeds (which usually imports new stuff) last year...after that; nothing. :/

However I have seen NEST figures in various places...But only Deluxe figures.

The only HFTD figure I've seen is Battle Ops Bumblebee (though again it was the same Forbidden Planet, so may be another import).

In Italy is the same sad story.

Hasbro has a chaotic and unpredictable distribution here. Last week I have found Rotf Thrust and Gears together with a re-stock of deluxe Skids and Chromia and Legends Springer and Jetfire. I have seen neither leader Jetfire, voyager Long Haul and Grindor, nor the NEST line. In the end I get them from BBTS.

Every year, because of Hasbro Italy inefficiency, one half of my tf budget partly vanishes in gasoline to find them, and partly in shipping cost when I surrender and get them from USA.

I have seen the war for cybertron line but it was in a videogames store, I believe an import.

The European line must be called HUNT FOR THE TRANSFORMERS!!!

i was still holding onto hope

everywhere just has:

leaders- prime, megatron, jetfire
voyagers- mixmaster, megatron, ratchet, the fallen
deluxe- jolt, soundwave, bumblebee, the twins, ravage, blazemaster, wheelie, the bike twins

and then there's various boxes, soundwave & bumblebee, whirl & bludgeon.

in my local tesco they have a few packed boxes on top of the shelves that say 'transformers voyager assortment' and 'transformers deluxe assortment' or something, and they had one box open on the floor with lockdown/brawn/strike mission sideswipe/ratchet, but ive been back and theyve still not opened those other boxes, im hoping that in those boxes there'd be mindwipe, recon ironhide, bludgeon and the rest but im doubting it now :/

i saw in home bargains they have the superion set for £15, and i think some others but i didnt get a good look as i was in a rush that day. sorry for the long post!

hi i live in plymouth uk and i was in the main city, i went into the shop final frontier in there which sels comics and collectables and i was surprised to find all the generations toys fromwave one in there i would have bought drift but i decided not to and to put it off for a little while

The Generations figures which are out in the UK aren't imports. They were shipped by Diamond UK to stores yesterday. They're Euro standard 12-language cards.

Hasbro replied saying that the HFTD line will be released for their autumn/winter time so i'm also hoping that argos's new summer catalogue will have NEST figures, especially voyagers, and then the autumn/winter catalogue will have HFTD stuff!

Does NEST include Mindwipe?

The last voyager to get released was Stratosphere. According to hasbros released info for the next wave of tf's well be getting banzaitron and seaspray.

Hasbro uk will not be releasing the green decipticon dumptruck, bludgeon ironhide or mindwipe if the information they have released thus far is any indication

I recently got the whole set of wave-1 Generations figures from "Toyz & Gamez", they were all multi-language, Euro cards.

The new stock is on our shores but has not hit "mainstream" shlves yet. What voyagers we'll see next are anyones guess.

As an aside, when ROTF toys came out, my TRU suddenly got a selection of 2007, Wave 5 Voyagers, all in US/English language boxes.

To my knowledgde, they hadn't been released here, god knows where they got them from...
