okay, does anyone know where i can get him (UK) because ALL U.K Argoses near me are sold out, oh and will the Japanese version be the Allspark power version or the UK version

 

As far as I know there is no variations among this toy.

 

Yeah - I left it too late myself.

Even though they are advertised as the toy for christmas at Argos, no stores have them in stock. Really quite strange to be honest

The Allspark Power Nightwatch OP is slightly different than the UK version.

 

American:

English:

 

So, does the UK version have a shint paint job, or is that just heavy photoshopping?

 

No, thats the English version and in my opinion the best version

 

Yes but are we sure the actual toy will have these variations? As we all know the Hasbro images are not always what the final colors of the toy actually are, and are usually early paints and or photoshop mock ups.

 

I think all the actual display versions had the black hips and such.

 

they changed it because of the "allspark power" thing

 

It's sparkly, but not really that shiny. Standard metallic flake plastic, I think.

 

I like the UK Version more.

 

@ Autovolt: i agree and 1 more post to 6000

 

So you have an Allspark Power figure in front of you right now to know that for a fact? The assortment number changed because he's not released in pre-Allspark packaging in the US, but there is no other difference confirmed at this point and I find it very likely that there will be no difference at all. Wait for his release in the US before worrying about variations.

 

No, the UK NW Prime was the original version, then Hasbro came up with the "Allspark power" gimmick to boost sales and they added the rather crap light blue colours

 

Count me in the group that thinks there won't be a difference. Pictures and final product vary alot with Hasbro, and I honestly don't see them making two different paint versions for American and British releases. Now Takara and Hasbro different paint yes. Not saying that it won't happen, but I have to comparison pics first.
