UK Activision War For Cybertron Promotional Figure Mini Gallery- Cybertron Starscream Repaint - TFATM - 07-02-2010 01:00 PM
Please use this thread to discuss the UK Activision War For Cybertron Promotional Figure Mini Gallery- Cybertron Starscream Repaint news story on the main site.
Seibertron.com have a very interesting article about a new UK exclusive Transformers figure that has been produced as part of the promotional for Transformers Way For Cybertron. The figure is a repainted Transformers Cybertron (Galaxy Force) Legends Starscream figure. Its unknown at present how you would get the toy, it appears to have been a pre-order exclusive only not from one of the main UK stores. So the UK finally gets another exclusive item, only its not advertised so hardly anyone would have picked it up. Expect this little fella to start fetching high prices on the 2nd hand market.

as the offer was still there I nearly bought the DS version of the game to get it but they've stopped giving him out now
Re: UK Activision War For Cybertron Promotional Figure Mini Gall - Starscreams_Ghost - 07-03-2010 01:54 PM
sorry dude that wasn't a dig at anybody I just find the dlc pre-order codes to be complete guff that 2 of you can't use them
knowing you're the Shocky fan I would have gone for this from shopto instead
just don't want to pay too much for a in all honesty pretty crappy toy just to complete my shelf
Re: UK Activision War For Cybertron Promotional Figure Mini Gall - minion - 07-03-2010 02:14 PM
Have they sold out at shopto? They've still got the games listed as coming with SS 'whilst stocks last'. Does it say somewhere that they are sold out now?

Especially since the latest rumour is that the forthcoming DLC with maps will also include all 3 excl characters + a few new ones.
Re: UK Activision War For Cybertron Promotional Figure Mini Gall - Starscreams_Ghost - 07-03-2010 02:31 PM
yeah when you get to the order page the SS toy comes up as "Status:Stopped" Which I assume means they're no longer shipping them
still I shall save my money for the Dirge but not Dirge Masterpiece from iGear that I have reported but is yet to show in the news... Lazy Moonies
unless I'm reporting old news again :?

It's stuff like this that makes me question the meaning of the word exclusive in the modern marketplace. This news doesn't bother me too much, since I want Shockwave and Demolishor (or more accurately, their multiplayer chassis's) but I'd like to know what the law is regarding the use of the word. I any case, I saw this coming a mile off, the amount of in game concept art for Shockwave in particular proves that way to much resource was spent on this character only to have him as a preorder exclusive. (As an interesting side note, whithin the concept art galleries are art for at least one unnamed Autobot and Decepticon, it seems likely that these could be the other new characters [Onslaught and Scattorshot I believe]).

New news to me. Did some checking and it seems he's only one of the small scale ones (like the mimi MP Prime) from what i've read. If they made him in scale with the existing MP jets i'd definitely buy him.
