Multi-Lingual Packaging Grimlock, Blitzwing and Lugnut spotted

TFW2005.com members Boardwise and Sinestro have spotted some multi-lingual packaged Transformers Animated toys in Forbidden Planet in the UK. The figures, Lugnut, Grimlock and Blitzwing, are from Wave 3 of Transformers Animated.

Some Wave 2 figures, Blackarachnia and Ratchet have previously been spotted in some stores, and as Forbidden Planet is an import store, who occasionally stock UK products, these could turn out to be imports (possibly from Canada?) or pre-released European toys. Toys R US are known for releasing toys before their official release date (something confirmed to us by Hasbro), so it could be that Forbidden Planet did indeed purchase these figures from Hasbro UK.

For the moment we suggest that this story is treated as an import sighting, though we plan to try and speak to Hasbro next week to see what we can find out.
