Leathurkatt, the Transformer Tiggy here for a special notice to Transformers United Members!
EDIT: Thank you to
for this info: Another red flag that ensures 100% positive that a DVD is a bootleg ripoff - Region 0. Only personal DVDR's make those, not companies, ergo, it's stolen property.
[link]I am posting this as a warning to all Transformers fans on my watch list. I have received confirmation directly from Hasbro through a reliable contact that the DVD pictured above is a 3rd party bootleg ripoff, ergo stolen and not a legitimate product. The photos were taken from an Ebay seller here -->
[link]and the company distributing it is here -->
[link]It is being made in and sold from Malasia and is not a licensed product. My
ONLY reason for posting the photos in my scraps is to warn others not to purchase this DVD. Here are all the bootleg copies being sold on Ebay so far, please help report these stolen products to Ebay as bootleg merchandise:
[link][link][link][link][link][link]DO NOT BUY FROM THEM! THEY ARE SELLING BOOTLEG PRODUCTS, STOLEN MERCHANDISE! By buying these bootleg DVD's you are receiving stolen property which is punishable by law. I found out about it only because someone posted the exact same photo of the front cover in the group
, of which I am a member. I researched the photo trying to find out if it was actually a legitimate product and found that you can only get it on Ebay or through the distributor linked above. After sending the information to a friend with connections to Hasbro, I received confirmation that these are in fact 3rd party bootleg ripoffs. Legitimate copies will look like the US release and have the 5 part Darkness Rising and have all the relevant logos on them: Hasbro, The Hub, and/or Takara Tomy. If you want to know what the legitimate release looks like, I have photos of it in the thumbnail below.
Transformer Tiggy out.
