As we greatly value our TRANSFORMERS fans and consumers, we appreciate
the opportunity to clarify and explain the current situation with
TRANSFORMERS PRIME First Edition figure availability in the U.S.

We very much apologize for the miscommunication with our great retailers
in the U.S. Regrettably, as a result, the TRANSFORMERS PRIME First
Edition Wave 2 Deluxe, Wave 1 Voyager and Entertainment Pack figures
were posted for pre-sale in error. Final product was not produced for
these figures to ship within the U.S. As such, any consumer who placed a
pre-sale order with Big Bad Toy Store or Entertainment Earth in the
U.S. received a note that their order had been cancelled and these
orders will not be fulfilled. While it is common for Hasbro to cancel
production and/or shipment of collectible figures prior to being listed
for pre-sale, this particular situation was unique. We deeply regret
this circumstance and understand your frustration.

We would also like to express that we hear the fan community in the U.S.
loud and clear – you want these specific TRANSFORMERS PRIME First
Edition figures. While we can’t confirm anything at this time, and the
format in which these figures are packaged and distributed may change,
the team is looking into ways to make these available at a later date in
the U.S. and will keep the fan community and our retailers posted as
opportunities develop. We want to make this right, and making these
figures available to the U.S. fans is a top priority for the team. We
greatly appreciate your understanding and ongoing enthusiasm for the
brand and hope in the mean time, you enjoy the TRANSFORMERS PRIME
figures that are hitting shelves now and in the coming weeks.
