Don't normally watch reviews, but this guy nailed it.

Did I mention I'm excited for the line?

If Thew were up to date on current releases, I'd abuse my admin powers to feature only his reviews.

But he is not.

It gets expensive trying to order all of Hasbro's stuff on eBay to beat everyone else to the youtube ad click-farm fest.

Australia is also being passed over for Generations toys :-x

Yep, needs the head or it'll just not look right.

I really like Classics Mirage, but I'm also a massive combiner fan! So much so that I am actually considering replacing my 3P Optimus, Superion and any other official or unofficial toy. Also have FP M3 (that is an obvious replacement as my biggest TF purchasing regret) and will still get TFC Prometheus once the set is released and will love having multiple versions.

Also, that was an awesome review!

Optimus, Silverbolt and Windcharger are now in my PoL! Powerglide should be joining them soon...

If the Deluxe guys are close to arriving then I have a problem, do I ship now and cop some extra shipping costs or wait and suffer the pain of not have more combiners! :lol:

Some more Transformers Generations Combiner Wars news, this time for Australian fans, thanks to a tip from Seibertron.com board admin Burn. According to OZformers admin griffin, who has been digging for information with retailers, the new lines will be hitting in February at the earliest. Read more below!

With the recent release of RID toys in America and Europe, plus the expected release of Generations toys and the Year of the Goat toys by the end of the month, I asked the local branch if or when these toys will be released in Australia.

As usual, a big thanks to them for these details....

Generations - the major retailers are likely to start stocking them Feb/March, and if we/they are lucky, minor retailers (like ToysRUs) might be convinced to take stock before then.

Robots in Disguise - the toyline will be released here in March to go with the screening of the cartoon starting in March (probably on payTV like last time).
Apparently, the US are officially launching their RID line in January because that's when the cartoon starts on Cartoon Network there... so these pre-Christmas toys are probably just an American retailer making the most of the bigger toy sale period.

Year of the Goat - both Optimus and Soundwave should be here in decent quantities, but most likely held until June for the mid-year toy sales.

Nice to know that they will be coming down under, but I'll stick with BBTS. Just paid for 2 voyager and 1 legend + shipping and it was (after currency conversion) a few dollars cheaper than 2 voyagers at retail. Paying a little less to import and getting them 2 months sooner is preferred!

Powerglide is on pre-order again and listed as January even though they have sets of 4 in stock. As one who missed out on an individual PG initially it looks like BBTS will make me wait for him :-x

Seems to be the same for Silverbolt, so Robogeek would still have to wait a while...

@Robogeek: Why did you cancel?

so, 3P stuff, i know. but comparisons like this are important, and i think will help draw those of the fandom on the 3P fence. heres superion with MMC's feral rex! sizes up pretty damn good!
