[Hob]

Hi there all,

i bought supercon prime from asda in bristol and blurr from toys r us, they also had about a 1000 supercon primes and blurr's.

so get to your local asda of toys r us ASAP.

Also the index catolouge has a picture of Sideswipe (with nightbeat minicon).

Going in tomorrow to see if i can buy him will keep you guys posted.

Also asked lackie at TRU about future release dates, to which he just looked shocked and ran away never to be seen again.

TRU have scaled down their shelve space in the bristol branch, don't know if its a bad sign.

Hope this info is of help

Hob.

[Hob]

Hi all,

went to index in Bristol and the staf were as helpful as chocolate teapot.

So no real news.

Only had the supercon prime in stock.

New Argos book out saturday so hopeful sideswipe will be in there.:cry

[payres]

Superbase Prime @ 39.99 in JohnLewis and the Entertainer in Kingston

Superbase is in the Argos Catalog, and on the Entertainer's Website ( www.thetoyshop.com )

[Hob]

Hi guys,

Just bought Jetfire from The Mall in Bristol (John Lewis)

Only had one on the shelf, but that probaly means they get them in all the time.

He's great by the way, his head sucks but still nice toy, haven't had the time to combine him with prime.

Thanx Hob.

[Bluestreak]

Gah, I can't find Jetfire for love nor money.
I suppose the stores round here will have to shift the hundreds of Megatrons lying around first. :cry

[payres]

Not seen many, but he is out there....

[Hob]

Hi guys,

Went to TRU (Bristol) today they had the following

Sea team. (bought)
Dark sabre. (Bought)
Night attack militay team. (Wish i'd bought)
Scavenger.
Superbase Prime,
Supercon Prime.
Loads of Lazerbeak.
Oh of course Megs.

A few RID's and reissue hot rodiums, starscreams (way too dear) and Magnus.

Am checking weekly (or when i get a chance)

Hope this helps.

How many other TF fans from Bristol (UK) are on this site?

Drop me a PM.

Hob. :ROCK

[The Phazer]

Yep, wave 4 minicons are definately out.

Saw a stack of everything in York Fenwicks today.

Phazer

[Hob]

Just bought the night attack team from TRU bristol.

Asked about Unicron as well, but they didn't know when it was coming in :(

Oh well.

Hob.

[payres]

Jan according to the Hasbro reps at toyfair. Seeing as we're just getting last Jan's US minicons now that seems a reasonable estimate.

Sorry I live in SE and I've never heard of Fenwicks, is it a good shop and are there any down this way?

[payres]

Fenwicks are a chain of department stores. There's one at the Brent Cross shopping center, one in York..... They also own the Bentalls stores in Kingston, Ealing, Bristol and a few places...

[Stomski]

Cheers for the Bristol info... TRU Bristol had Jetfire in yesterday too.

Bentalls in Bristol closed years ago and is now a House of Fraser. Unless it moved :eyebrow

Jan according to the Hasbro reps at toyfair.
Phil, from the sounds of what you're saying there the UK will get a Unicron release... Don't get my hopes up.

[payres]

Read http://www.action-figure.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=6698 if you don't believe me.

[payres]

Sorry but since when does Sainsburys sell Transformers? :eek:

Anyway I'm posting to let you know that ToysRus.co.uk are out of stock of :
R.I.D Optimus prime (large)
R.I.D X-brawn (recolour)
R.I.D Hightower
R.I.D Grimlock
& Rodimus major

Major bummer that after spending weeks waiting to get paid and then waiting for the cheque to clear they are out of stock of Prime
:( But I already found another source so I'm :D

I'll have to have a look in my local some time. :D

[Fort Max]

Guys,
Just what are the newest figures avaiable in this country?
I went to my local shopping center (Bluewater) just yesterday and in the whole place all we saw was:
repaint land mil team (uniform blue colour)*
scavenger
megatron
small prime*
superbase prime
*'s are the ones I brought thus marking the start of my new collection. I was surprised by just how much fun the minicons actually are to mess about with, using overun as a targetmaster and the manual launch land mil members I gave Prime some serious weaponry in both bot mode and as a massively overarmed artillery truck :D
Also worth noting is that John Lewis do superbase prime for about £37.95 which I think is not only cheaper than argos but you can you make certain you get a decent box :p

Latest:

Minicons: Night Attack (which you saw) AirAssault (Dark Sabre) and Sea

Didn't see him in there when I got bendy prime and the night attack team (cool colours btw) :( The only others were scavenger, megatron and superbase prime which are future buys.
I'll have to have another look when I go back to get "tv remote" prime :p

[Snake]

TRU Dundee is practically overstocked with Transformers Armada.

I swear there was atleast 10 Superbase Optimus Prime's which I've changed my mind about, that thing is freaking huge.

about 7 or 8 Supercon (Bendy) Optimus Prime's.

1 Blurr.

5 or 6 Megatron's.

1 Scavenger.

1 Red Alert.

Tons of Wave 1 Mini-cons.

5 or 6 Spychanger Optimus Prime's.

3 or 4 RID Rollbarr's.

2 or 3 Spychanger Ultra Magnus's

4 or 5 RID Optimus Prime's and Ultra Magnus's, I thikn TRU really want rid of their stock of these because they where down to £15 each.

3 or 4 Reissue G1 Ultra Magnus's.

2 or 3 Rodimus Major's.

7 or 8 Reissue G1 Starscream's...

Saw all of this today, old stuff compaired to watch you guy's in england have seen but after month upon month's of seeing woolowrths stocked with Garbage it was a welcome change to see more than just 5 or 6 Megatron's sitting on the shelve's in my local woolworths....

still haven't caught hide nor hair of Armada Starscream up here, which is disappointing to say the least....

they had a few G.I. Joe stuff.

and a ton of MOTU stuff.

I didn't have very much cash with me so I just picked up a Skeletor, my first MOTU of the new series :D

I'll be going back to get my Armada SB Prime, Scavenger, Blurr, G1 Starscream and Red Alert next week though :D :thumb:

[payres]

If you're still after Starscream try www.thetoyshop.com

[Boardwise]

Went on a little toy hunt today.

Edinburgh TRU:
Loads of Superpants Prime.
Loads of Lazerbeaks
Few Blurrs and Supercon Prime.
Night Attack Team, Sea Team, Street Speed Team and Adventure Teams
Few Megs
Few Scavengers
RID Primes and Magnus's
Ruination Limbs
Spychangers (Scourge and X-Brawn)
Reissue Prime, Maguns and Starscream

Big W:
RID Maguns, Armada Megs and Scavenger

Now this one I found completly hillarious.
Asda/Wal*Mart had a ton of Optimal Optimus's for about £12.
Seriously... They had loads of them.
I've never seen so many of them.
It's like someone found the entire stock of them for Britain and sent them to one store.

Though nowhere had Armada Thundercraker and Galvatron.
Oh well... time to source them somewhere else...

Well the Edinburgh had loads of them.
Dunno about any others.

I spotted Starscream way back when Armada started showing up over here.
About the same time my order from HLJ arrived... go figure...

Not seen him in a while though.
Plenty of Scavengers however.

Course what will happen is I'll place an order with HLJ for Thundercracker and he'll start turning up in the shops.
There is no justice......

[payres]

Thundercracker sightings all over the place on the Hub in Scotland: http://pub57.ezboard.com/ftransmastersukfrm40.showMessageRange?topicID=567.topic&start=341&stop=360

[Snake]

Yeah LT you must forgive me, that's what I ment about visiting Asda in Edinburgh sometime.

haven't been over to the capital in awhile, do Forbidden Planet still get in the Dreamwave comics do you know?

payres, thanks for the info, no sign of Thundercracker around here unfortunatly :(

[payres]

None near me in Kingston Sy either.

FP London or FP Edinburgh ? London has the story titles but the only place to get MTMTE in London is Orbital on Old Compton St.

[Snake]

Edinburgh FP stopped getting them in after the whole "There not supposed to be sold outside of the NA" crap last year, I don't know if they ever started getting them in again after DD changed their mind about the comics being sold outside NA.

[Boardwise]

Yeah they started getting them in again.

I picked up G1 Vol2 #5 there a couple of weekends ago, and the Dreamwave GI Joe VS TF last weekend.

[kaijubot-uk]

Forbidden Planet in manchester today had the second set of Armada pvcs (act-10 i think), World's Smallest Transformers (i got starscream), Armada 15 and Devil's Due GI Joe/Transformers 3.

[payres]

as stated elsewhere The Entertainer's stock has come in - www.thetoyshop.com

[maharg83]

And the Entertainer's web stock is gone, any signs on the shelves ?

No, but been reported in others too.

[Prahicron]

Found about 7 Thundercrackers in my local Woolies store, along with the Dark Saber Minicon team and the Sea Team Minicons.

Dunno if anyone else has spotted these guys yet :p

[Twin Twist]

I really want Thundercracker...

How can one make sure you get it from Argos and not some other one?

[payres]

By asking them to bring down what they have first.

Woolies are getting solid cases of Thundercracker so.... Got mine from the Epsom branch which isn't too far from you....

[Twin Twist]

Thankyou. Tomorrow I shall have Thundercracker!

That's what I did last Saturday.

head to the customer services with an order form filled out, and ask to view the items first.

They'll eventually bring them out, and you pay for them there, then run home and open him.
Laughing all that way.

Mmmm seeker goodness... me wanty. I will make the most of tomorrows sick day and get him. He will make me feel better :D

[Twin Twist]

3-2... scum!!!

[payres]

There speaks a man who has obviously just bought some of the items on that list. Woolies Epsom had Galvatron and Tidal Wave but not the others :-(

[Bluestreak]

3 for 2, Galvatron, Skywarp and Overload are mine...all mine. :thumb:

[mushyman]

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone's spotted any Armada Wheeljacks or Hoists around? I'm hoping to pick them up in the 3-2 offer at Woolies, but I'm not even sure if they're available anywhere yet!

[payres]

Not yet. But those Supercons have to sell out soon. If you're in need have a peak at www.bigbadtoystore.com 's clearance prices.


You want Hoist, best Supercon imo.

[Scourge_151]

last tiem i went in BigW filton they had demolisher, thundercracker (got 1 ), galvatron and tidal wave and a whole shelf full of supercon primes, absolutely no minicons though.

[mushyman]

I'm not in desperate need, but I would like to pick them up while this offer's on! Free stuff is always nice ;)

[Twin Twist]

OVERLOAD is out?!

Why was I not informed?! ARGH!

Maybe we should create a mailing list?

[payres]

Worth looking round the stores, several woolies I've been in have an endcap with TFs on at the moment as well as it's normal place.

[payres]

We've got a reported sighting on the Hub ( http://pub57.ezboard.com/ftransmastersukfrm40.showMessageRange?topicID=567.topic&start=521&stop=531 ) of Powerlinx Jetfire in a Toymaster near Bournemouth.

[Twin Twist]

I want Powelinx Hot-Shot, the way I understood it I thought we weren't getting Powerlinx, although I am glad we are as some of the recolours are sweet. I shall go check out John Lewis today, but I fear all the Scavengers will still be there and they won't stock anymore until they go :(

[payres]

Woolies have a further 10% off all toys and this works with the 3-2

[Twin Twist]

John Lewis Oxford Street have;

Jetfire
Superpants Prime
Scavenger
Sideswipe
Smokescreen
Tidal Wave
Megatron
Galvatron
Air Military Team
Rescue Team

I just picked up the Rescue and Air Military teams. Best. Minicons. Ever.

[Boardwise]

Edinburgh TRU has one less Unicron now :ev:

[Aptom]

woolworths in staffoird has road wrecker minis rescue minis and air military minis along with one skywarp which is now mine they still have some galvys primes and jetfires though index is worth checking for overload thats where i found mine.

[payres]

Got Skywarp and Overload from the Woolies in Abingdon on Friday as part of the 3-2 and 10% off.

US packaging variation hunters may be interested in looking out for the UK Tidal Wave, Overload and Skywarp - they're all in the normal Aramada packaging rather than the Unicron Battles ones/

Anyone know a woolies with Jetfire, Tidal Wave and Galvatron ?

[payres]

Big one this time. But I'll make you wait for the new stuff ;-)

Entertainer has finally got Sideways and Smokescreen on site, 30 quid as the Price for their Superbase Prime, and is the first UK non TRU and non import stockist to get Unicron (£60)

But the big news is they have Powerlinx Red Alert and Predacon ! First of the beasts to get a UK release, here's hoping the others show up ! £20 each at www.thetoyshop.com

[Scourge_151]

BigW filton now has galvatron, optimus, tidal wave and overload (yay!) and the dark and star saber role play swords on 3 for 2, no new supercons though they have two shelves full of primes!

[Scourge_151]

looked on toysrus.co.uk and they have unicron listed, guess where i'm going after christmas!

[Prahicron]

Bah, all my local stores are still trying to get rid of Superpants Prime, Megs and Scavenger....

I'll get Jetfire/Skywarp/Overload/Wheeljack/Hoist/Powerlinx Figures eventually....

*Shakes fist at local kids who aren't buying the toys*

:(

[Scourge_151]

OMG my woolies sold OUT (and i mean OUT) in 2 days!

BEFORE i could get overload

[tikgnat]

Hey, all Transformers are 20% off at Argos at the moment, so you can pick up an Alternators Smokescreen for £15.99...

I know I did... :p

[Sol Fury]

Forbidden Planet in Manchester currently has:
MD-01 Megatron for £15-00
SD-04 Megazarak and SD-05 Shockwave, both for £35
SC-01 Grand Convoy for £45

I felt they were a little pricey, but the MD-01 Megatron is a great price for anyone still wanting an Armada Megatron, and he's show accurate to boot.

for any of you who haven't picked up dreadwind & smokejumper yet there are still a few left at toys 'r' us in cardiff, the one in cribbs causeway has re-stocked with powerlinx jetfire and red alert and also have predacon, jazz and powermaster op re-issue are on clearance. I think that now the powerlinx stuff is coming in the RiD exclusives will be cleared off the shelves so if you want them hurry!!

[payres]

Seen the new Armada Supercons myself now in The Entertainer in Kingston. Hoist, Rhinox and Terrorsaur. According to a friend who works for them they've packed 2 x Terrorsaur, 3 x Hoist and 3 x Rhinox. All 3 are on Unicron Battles cards with CDs. I have a recollection that one of the beasts didn't get a Unicron Battles card in the US - am I right ?

Hoist is on their site already: www.thetoyshop.com as are the RID Trains @ 10 uk each.

[payres]

Seems to be a new Minicon assortment floating around:

3 x Air Millitary
3 x Emergency
3 x Sea (why ?)
3 x Air Assault (Dark Sabre, good only 1 per case in it's previous appearance)

All on Unicron Battles Cards.

Seen in Entertainer Kingston.

[Sol Fury]

Woolworths also has a buy one get one free offer going on their Maxcons - went in to get PL Red Alert and Predacon at half price and wound up getting both for £9.99! Not sure if it was a glitch, but worth trying out if there's any Maxcons you're short.

The Hub's Sightings Thread has a report of Energon in the Leicester TRU: Magnus and Tidal Wave + Basics: http://p069.ezboard.com/ftransmastersukfrm40.showMessage?topicID=1405.topic

[payres]

Energon is OUT in TRUs in the UK.

I had a case of basics (3 each of Strongarm, Skyblast, Battle Ravage and Energon
Sabre) and 1 case of Ultras (1 x Tidal Wave and 2 x Ultra Magnus) pulled from
the TRU Swindon stockroom.

Yes you read that right: ULTRA MAGNUS. The box is partially corrected to show
the Space Team (printed as opposed to stickered with the Japanese release).

Catalog has the first comic in 3 languages and a compressed catalogue ommiting
the pages with the basics and Starscream. Unicron shown is Armada colouring.
The cover is a mess, massive pic of TFA Unicron over TFE Op.

[Hob]

Hi there,

I can also report that TRU Bristol had loads of Energon stuff in over the weekend,

I got a n Iltra Magnus, Strongarm and Battel ravage.

How rare was Ultra Magnus in the US?

Hob.

[payres]

Um was one a case in a limited number of early ultra cases. We're getting him at 2 a case. For how long who knows - we'll need a scorps sighting for that.

TRANSFORMERS: ENERGON IS IN THE UK!!!!!!!!

I just picked up Skyblast and Strongarm from Fenwick, Brent Cross! They also had:

Ultra Magnus, (for some reason the back picture of Ultra Magnus is the Red Armada version of this guy. How weird.) £24.99

Tidal Wave, (very snazzy, may pick one up, but not sure if he's sufficiently different from my Micron Legend Shockwave...) £24.99, same as their Armada Tidal Wave...

Ironhide, (looks OK I guess, for some reason I always assumed he was a deluxe...) £19.99

Treadbolt, (Looks Ok, but I didn't bother to have a closer look. Just wanted to see behind him...) £19.99

Hot Shot, (Didn't get a good look at him, behind Inferno) £Didn't check the price...

Inferno, (Much richer Red than my Superlink Inferno, very nice...) £Didn't check the Price

Rapid Run, (Right at the back, repaint of Sideways? Didn't bother with a closer look to be honest... :redface ) £Didn't check the Price

Strongarm, (well none left NOW...) £6.95

Skyblast, (again, none now...) £6.95 Can't wait to open these guys... soon my pretties... soon you shall be released...)

Energon Saber, (already got one, so didn't really look) £6.95

Battle Ravage, (again, already got one, so just looked at him wistfully, then went to pay...) £6.95

So! They are here! Brent X Fenwick have once again proven their worth for new releases of TF's, they were the first to get new Armada stuff in (notably Smokescreen and Scavenger) and nopw they have Energon!

One thing I've noticed about Inferno is that he's got Minicon powerlinx ports, but Energon Hot Shot hasn't! :D

not too new it's been there for a couple of years they used to have shed loads of optimal minors when it first opened they were about £2 each but since i wasnt a big tf collecter (not that i am excessivly now) at that time i didnt pick any up. anyway i digress, its just to the right of the tay bridge bridge, (a minutes walk south of the bus station) however if your driving you have to take the aberdeen exit and take the exit on the right of the small roundabout that is underneath the bridge.

[toymachine]

Cool, I thought that's where it might be, Thanks. :)

I'll have to check it out, my Nephews still after an Overload.

Northampton TRU has wave 2 basics in, Signal flare (tres sweet) Cruellock Perceptor and Divebomb. So I guess these guys are everywhere now.

The thing is, I'm still waiting to find E Megatron and E Jetfire. If I can't find any I may have to pick up the Megatron from Epicheroes (but a choice of the E Megs, or the smaller Superlink Megs, which is better? I assume the E Megs cuz its bigger, but, eh... how to decide?)

E Megs.

[payres]

The thing is, I'm still waiting to find E Megatron and E Jetfire.

E Megs is out in the UK , stacks in the Swindon TRU. So keep checking TRU, or alternately try a stock pull on the larger size toy (Prime etc) at Argos - they might have some.

Jetfire (as well as Scorps & Starscream) haven't had a definite UK sighting yet.

[tikgnat]

E Megs.

But why exactly? Apart from the size, whats the difference?

BTW L Takara, I love the animated gif on the side! I actually still have the original Bookmark that came from!

'Funny story' (to me anyway) its one of my favourite bookmarks (one of the last free gifts from the UK comic before it went belly up). But I had lost it for YEARS... and had given up all hope of ever finding it again. Then around a month ago I found it in an old Fighting fanstasy book, stored away in a packing crate. Finding it again made my day.

[tikgnat]

I tried the stock pull at argos already, just got Prime at my local. I know E Megs is out, but that just makes its more frustrating that I can't find it. (Kinda like when the RID Trainbots came out, they were in the country, but they were hiding from me dammit... So what happens? I splurge out on the Korean CR JRX boxset. Couple of years later, I find the RID trainbots (well, 2 of them) in a big Greek Toystore. Figures. :rolleyes )

I dunno.
I just like the overall size of E Megs compaired to the smaller SL Megs.
Makes him much more inline with Prime.

There few downsides I can think of are that you don't get a green sword with E Megs, the energon is a lighter green on SL Megs (in fact I think the whole colour scheme is brighter on SL Megs) and I'm sure there a way to get SL Megs to hold his sword using Crulllocks gun.

And the animation is taken straight form the bookmark.
I've still got the bookmark as well, and use it when I'm reading.
All other bookmarks just don't seem to cut it :D

Oh and if your still looking for E Jetfire, head over to BBTS.
They have him for about $12 plus shipping.
I grabbed one :D

[tikgnat]

Hmmm, $12.99 + p&p eh? Well I would... except I blew a wad of cash on...

Energon Snowcat! Energon Rodimus! Energon Prowl!

Yup yup, picked up in the UK not 2 hours ago, in Makro. Seems that Makro have finally updated their toy inventory (in the lead up to Christmas no less... go figure) and they have those three in stock, along with Starscream to round off the Deluxes. Ironhide and Treadbolt makde up the Megas (no Jetfire yet... grumble). Nothing else in any other size though.

So yeah... if they have them, expect them to crop up everywhere else soon I guess...

[tikgnat]

SHITS! HOLY MONKEY LOVING SHITS!

THESE GUYS HAVE TECH SPEC CARDS!

OMG! OMFG! SMJ! (Sweet Monkey Jesus)

No text, just stats and a piccy on the other side. But hey... its a nice step back in the right direction. Now if they could sqeeze in character bios...

edit...

Ahah, all the Energon figs from Deluxe size up have tech spec cards... I never checked my Prime or Ironhide card (assumed they were stickers) and all the other Energon toys I have are Superlink, and they all have spec cards anyway... oooh... colour me stooooopid. :rolleyes:

[Draven]

Not so much a sighting, but Ellis Models (http://ellismodels.com/store/) have listings now for Hasbro UK Energon Starscream, Snowcat, Rodimus and Prowl.

TRU Brent X now have Arcee, Insecticon as well as the new deluxes, Prowl, Starscream, Snowcat and Rodimus.

Makro in Park Royal have also restocked on Deluxe Energon, and having sold out in a flash last time now have around 3 times as many as before.

TRU in Birstall, West Yorks. now has all the new basics (Prowl, Starscream, Snow Cat and Rodimus) as well as Landmine, and has the free deluxe with Omega offer on as well.. oh, and a ton of megatron. didn't check the basics.. though how come we still have no Scorponok?

Megs and Omega Supreme spotted in The Entertainer in Worcester.

Also, I went into Tescos the other day and noticed that some of their Basics are in Canadian packaging which wasn't registering on the scanner, so they gave me Cruellock for £4.97. Might be worth checking out if you need any.

Pseudo sighting.

I spotted Landmine at Brent X TRU, but he was the last and I picked him up. There's none there now, but maybe they have some more in storage or on way?

There were some floating around in smaller & dept stores this time last year ... but I didn't see any in a TRU till the summer.

You never know somewhere out there our remaining 2 Beasts, Wheeljack and PL Dlx Repaints might be hiding !

Meanwhile I counted 30 E Magnus in the Bentalls in Kingston at the weekend.... and the entertainer must have had nearly a dozen A Skywarp.
