Anyone have any ideas if, when and where these might be sold?

Probably at swap meets across the U.S. and U.K.

The film director's selling them? Good for him... When rabid fanboys try to acost him, he can just throw a couple down the street and watch them scamper off after them...

The 'if' bay?

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too,
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream--and not make dreams your master,
If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Snipe!"

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings, nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much,
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And, which is more, you'll be on e-Bay, my son!

LOL!

Any idea how long it will be before they start appearing in eBay?

Not too long hopefully but even when they do appear we might still have a bit of a hunt on as the KO Swoop is not exactly in plentiful supply in this country and Ive never bought anything from China or HK on ebay.
Can anyone who has vouch for if your moneys safe?

Wheeljack and Mirage, how many of my favorite G1s will they KO,
before I get to have a real one?

I really like these two KOs. If they had Autobot symbols on them I'd buy one. Then again I could go to reprolables.... What am I
saying this is awfull there recking these bots just like they did to
Devastator by making KOs of him. I'll hunt em' down for this!

There are a few good boots of Dev and there are lots of bad ones. These particular KOs are likely be taken from abandoned official moulds where possible, and carefully-reconstructed work where not.
