At least he is around here.Excellent toy (except for the right arm=pain but you'll get used to it).
P.S.:For the first time after (insert two-digit number of years) i saw a TF commercial on tv (for the animated toys).

My area Wal-marts seem to be the first to have the new figures. The toysrus hasn't gotten anything new since galvatron. I'm still waiting to see Inferno.

Deszaras, Sainsbury's across from my work has them in stock (saw one today infact), I will find out the price tomorrow and I could always send one your way depending on how soon you want one.

That's the first time that something is cheaper here... :P
The deluxe classics here cost 10 euros each.

Can you say repaint? Well, they are seekers, so I guess they should be repaints.

that repaint Skywarp turned out better looking than mine LOL

I do like the Ramjet concept. But it's too G1-ish.
Note how all movie figs avoid being G1-ish (except the G1 repaints)

If I were to make a movie Ramjet, I would paint him 90% OFF WHITE
5% black
5% red

That keeps the G1 feel to it and makes it recongnizable for people to know who it is supposed to be.
Also it gives the movie "realistic" look to it.

well, the truth of the matter is only the screen characters need be 'realistic'. this is made clear in toys like Dropkick (giant decep symbol from hood to roof), and all the re-hashed cybertron toys we saw as movie toys (mostly the walmart and TRU exclusives).
On that note, if they're screen chars, i totally agree with Galvy. If they're not screen chars, they look great. (as far as the 5th and 6th repaints of a single cast :cry: )

They're out here in NY. I picked up the assortment sans Cheetor 2 weeks ago. I saw a Hound and Cheetor at Toysrus the other day. They dropped their prices from 11.99 to 9.99!
