Picked up Cybertron toys... in Germany.

Post by Nevermore »

Yesterday, a fellow German fan told me that his local Intertoys store had some Cybertron toys in. We had already found out before that Intertoys is receiving its supplies from the Netherlands, hence those are distributed via Hasbro Netherlands, not Hasbro Germany.

Either way, I took a trip to the Intertoys store in my own city and was able to pick up Ransack, Scattorshot and all six Railbots. Also saw Landmine, but left him there for budget reasons.

Well... should have picked up Landmine and left the Railbots there. Sigh. They're just as poor as my old Micromasters, you can tell they were designed 15 years ago.

Ransack... I'd like him more of it wasn't for the misassembled rear wheel hinges and the unpainted Cyber Key. Still, more articulation than Scattorshot.

Scattorshot... wow, that dude is armed to the teeth. You'd almost get the impression he was preparing for war or something. :D
Leg articulation could be better, arms are okay.

Only thing that sucks are German prices: 4.99 Euros for the Railbots, 7.99 Euros for each Scout. Sigh.

8 euros for a basic? Here they cost 10 [energon basics, not sure about cybertron]. Not that bad.

...So you DO buy other tfs besides Binaltechs :p ;)
Few stuff in the UK to trade/sell. Measly sales thread.

I could not resist the temptation. ;)

that's a regular price in the benelux (and one store even sells Micromasters at 10 euros/piece!!)

The retail prices for basics must have decreased. I'll check on Monday to see if we even got any cybertron stuff.
