As the title says! I know it's a toys r is exclusive in the US, has anyone seen them in the UK? I really want them (maybe just the individual figures for now) or is this yet another toy we're going to miss out on?

When I was last talking to Dave Tree he was trying to get some of it in at All the Cool Stuff. Could be worth giving him a ring as he's not the best at replying to emails or pms!

I sent a message to him on Facebook, he mentioned he was trying to get a deal on some! It's so bloody frustrating when you know they should be £2 each!

The TBP set looks amazing from what I have seen posted elsewhere.

I have some of these and I'm getting some more sent over
I'll let anyone know about any spares I have, sadly after shipping they won't be £2 though...

I wouldn't actually be that shocked if the Kre-O made it over here. I mean, they *did* release the Kre-O Battleship line. I would have thought it was more likely to be released than Retaliation figures... but that's probably just me bitter we've had no Joes since Risible... I mean Rise of Cobra

From what I've heard Hasbro have no intention of bringing any GI Joe Retaliation product to the UK as there's "No market". (How's that make your blood boil?)
Kre-O, although owned by Hasbro has it's exclusive Joe line at TRU so maybe they're going to bring some over! I really hope so as they're cool figures and sets, I'd love to have even the basic blind bag sets.

There's also some Star Trek Kre-O coming out which isn't a TRU exclusive so should be more readily available here. I've looked in to getting Joe Kre-O but have no hope if it's a TRU exclusive.
