Technically, yes. It's an Amazon exclusive on this side of the Pacific. Why it was at a retail store in NA is beyond me.

I can't wait for the new Generations toys to start showing up in my area. I've seen the first wave of FOC, but nothing else.

I like the new packaging, though. Nice update from the first version.

Springer's a nobody for me, plus I have the Cyb Evac repaint for him, making the new one useless.
But seeing these pics, I might snag him just as custom fodder for Waspinator (A much cooler character)

This will make the 6th or 7th Springer toy I will have bought. While I do think Waspinator is a great character, I have a certain fondness for Springer toys. His G1 toy was the first triple-changer I ever owned and the only one of the six that actually made sense since both alt modes were Cybertronian and therefore had no scale issues.

Even still, I'd love to see pics of a finished Waspinator custom, when/if you get around to it CJ.

Damn. I was eleven.
