Well folks, good news and bad news.
I just spoke with Playmates West Coast distributor (middleman wholesaler) about Gormiti, and after talking to Playmates, he said that they are not "at this time" going forward with the Gormiti line. What that basically means is that they made a few, sent them out as a test market to AZ (and possibly elsewhere), and that depending on how they do will determine the scope of the US release (if any).
I have a contact directly at Playmates, so I will contact her to verify. I would love to get these locally for the store, especially with the prices seen at Wal-Mart and TRU in AZ.
woah that is really crazy i would have thought the toyline would take off, and i would have thought it would be far more successful than FOP, the gormiti line are way cooler than FOP, FOP annoyed me with all the crazy rare figures and stuff
