The Legion-class version did get a retail release, but not the deluxe.

The deluxe version was cancelled in the US (confirmed by Hasbro in February), but was released in Japan last December. I don't know why that Ebay listing is saying it's the Hasbro version, though. I supposed it's possible that a few could have sneaked out by accident, but I doubt it.

EDIT: It's shipping from Taiwan, so it could have come straight from one of the factories. That, or it's actually the Asian release and the seller is being intentionally misleading.

I'm still hoping Hasbro just needs a retailer to carry the deluxe and HA versions as exclusives. I'd hate to be forced to import/Ebay them if they end up an Asia-only release like the end of Animated.

Although that auction does look rather tempting....

While that's true, this isn't the thread to discuss Ebay.

There have been a couple semi-related rant threads, but nothing specifically for Ebay rants.

I think this thread was about as close as we got, so far:
