They're out, but rare. The morons at Galoob came up with a unique packaging
technique. The B5 micromachines are part of the licenced collection, shops buy
a box containing over twelve Aliens and Predator packs and they also get one
or two of the new B5 packs. Given the popularity of the Aliens and Predator
packs most shops won't touch the stuff!

If anybody could confirm this, I'd LOVE to know if this is so. Some of the
new Star Wars fighter packs are well-packaged, but the large "Full
Thrust" ships aren't.

PS. One of the BIG benefits of Micromachines is how easy they are to convert.
My Star Trek fleet has a number of destroyers and battleships I've built up
(or cut down) from other models. They take to Superglue woderfully.

Other than the price, which should be 2.50 UKPounds, yes we can get them
direct.

Whoops. I meant confirmation yea or nay that they could be purchased
individually in the States.
