So is the US not getting the first edition stuff? (like Europe)

The U.S. got the FE deluxes, but I don't think the voyagers made an appearance (or were REALLY scarce).

[Goaliebot]

Wait, so now UK and USA have Prime:RiD figures and Canada does not?

HASBRO HATES CANADA!

;)

(poking fun at that "Hasbro hates the US" thread over on TFW)

[Gino]

They've only been sighted at TRUs in the US. Does this mean this line will be TRU exclusives when it hits Canada?

My understanding was that First Edition were TRU exclusive, but Prime:RiD is not...

[Autovolt 127]

Awesome the mainline's finally out. :D

Also This reminds me, I still Need First Edition Optimus Prime, Bulkhead and Cliffjumper.

[Knockout]

Any found at the TRU in Amherst NY?

No.

So far I'm not overly eager to pick any of these guys up. None have really wowwed me yet. The voyagers (megs, DE Prime, SS) all seem to be upscaled deluxes which is kinda... boring. Good for kids though.

[Matrix_Holder]

This is total BS, why do they get every wave of figures first...Hasbro hates us!

oh wait, we got First edition first.:innocent:

[Knockout]

No

I'm only wanting Soundwave and Wheeljack. But the closet US TRU is the one in Amherst. For some reason there isn't one Niagara Falls, Buffalo or Tonawanda :highfive:

[Akroyer]

I was kind of hoping they wouldn't actually come out until March. But it will probably be March or April before I see any around here. Unless I cave and order them online. But then the FEs haven't even showed up in the usual haunts online yet either that I've seen.

[Darth Cylon]

So the price went up to $14.99 USD for dlx?

[Incepticon]

Being that we got the First Editions and virtually no one else did, I wouldn't be surprised if that means we end up waiting for the RID mainline another month or two while the US & UK get flooded with them. Hasbro seems to pull that kind of tit-for-tat move every once a while.

[UltraPrimal]

You know what this means? Grab all the Prime First Edition figures you can and trade them with fans in the US/UK for the RiD figures!
