Re: Voltron ? Playmates Combinable Legendary Defender Photo Review

Was in flordia and picked up full set at TRU they have a ton of these at every store in USA. Its been out there for like over a month, if you dont see them in next month I would say import them because they clearly arent coming here.

Having same problem with Power Rangers stuff it just doesnt come here. Its been out in states since december.

Importing would be so expensive after conversion, shipping, and customs fees.

Plus Power Ranger stuff is showing up in force now. My local TRU has a ton of movie stuff, from figures to zords to the crazy huge box set Megazord. Of course that has a movie behind it to prompt sales, where Voltron only has a series on Netflix, but I'm staying optimistic.

I can confirm that these are already in the TRU inventory system, and Spin Master is indeed distributing them here. The legendary lions are $24.99 each, with the black lion being $49.99. The Ultimate Voltron will be $59.99, the Basic figures will be $14.99. They are currently slated to be released around March.

Thank you so much. Yeah, those were exactly the prices I expected. Not horrible but not great. But at least we're getting them.

We're elbow-deep into March, but still no Voltron on shelves or online.

Do you have any contacts in the U.S. who are willing to help you out? I got impatient waiting myself and just had a friend pick up a set for me. The U.S. has restocked a few times already, so they were easy to find for him.

They're cheaper in the US and you'll save on tax, but any savings will be wiped out by shipping costs. Overall, I spent $15 over retail to finally secure this set.

Re: Voltron ? Playmates Combinable Legendary Defender Photo Review

I'd rather just wait. Between conversion, tariffs, and shipping it's smarter just to hold out.

I'm just wondering how much longer than can be.
