From what I remember the UK saturation date is September. So in reality they should start appearing at the end of this month or early next.

So when are these new toys coming out in the UK? NEVER! Hasbro doesnt like the UK.  |

Can't wait for these bad boys! Just hope that TRU 1: breaks release date as they did with the Animated line and 2) the 3 for 2 sale is still on!

I think two or one of my deluxes turned up today typical the postman called when i'd gone out...
But Ghosty would you be able to aqquire the ultra's? I'd rather get them from the UK, this line is even an improvement over the first classics line and I loved that...
Allthough it's good to know that they arent going to be realesed as late as september...

They had a deal with Hasbro to start selling them a month early. Thanks to poor distribution and poor planning, some shops didn't get them on the shelves till the 2nd week in June. |

Yes I'll offer them as soon as I receive details Can't wait for these bad boys! Just hope that TRU 1: breaks release date as they did with the Animated line and 2) the 3 for 2 sale is still on! TRU didn't break the street date exactly. errrrr actually they did my Wholesaler (official hasbro outlet) has lodged a complaint about them doing it as ALL uk stock was time sensitive as far as he heard TRU did not have an arrangement to release early but hasbro's crappy distribution meant TRU got their stock first |

out in my local indy toy shops too
the waves shipped seperately
hasbro may have sent out the wave 2 stuff to the indys first to make up for lost sales and orders after a lot of indys cut there orders back after TRU got wave one out so early
however thats just my educated guess as the wave 2 stuff has only just been offered to me
