I'll tell you that they _are_ available in the UK already. I got both
Cybertech and VR2.0 within a week or so of their release, from a mail
order address in London. If they've got it, I think you should be able to
get them somewhere else as well...

VR2.0 was available in the UK the first Wednesday after in came out,
i think some folksin the US got copies about the Monday or so from
list comments. I was reading one book (Atzlan i think) on a Thursday
here and folks from the US were still compliaing they had not got it
2 or 3 days later!, its all down to your distributer route, some get
direct shipment, the Atlantic will cost you a day or two, others take
6-8 weeks country independant, like the shop i had to wait for GR2
from 3 years back, came out by about 2 Dec 92 (cos Wordman had it for
his kit list by then!), Were i was at the time didn't get till mid
Febuary!
