    I was in Sainsburys Doncaster yesterday and came across these little guys.

    on the shelves were the wave one assortment so no Bulkhead yet but with these on the shelves, the others can't be far behind. Don't know if these have been seen already but they were new to me, as was Stealth force Topspin and Leadfoot who you can see partially on the shelf beside them.

    I believe this is the first place in the world to have seen these smaller stealth force toys. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong :)

    Saw some in Tesco yesterday when I picked up Shockwave. Didn't know they were new.

    Yeah, I saw some in Tescos earlier in the week. I think I mentioned them in the UK Sightings thread as 'Robot Hero-like things' because I couldn't remember what they were called.

    saw bumblebee vs sentinel and something else vs sentinel (different coloured sentinels) don't think this is news (as long as it's in the uk it isn't news well that's how it's been so far)

    They were out in the US on release day IIRC.

    The Topspin might be new though - don't think he's been released anywhere yet. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

    Yay, more shelfwarming crap that nobody wants!

    I've never seen these in the US. Not that I've been looking, but yeah. I'm out and about almost daily.

    that stuff has been out for like 2 weeks or so in My ASDA along with the mini-activators that are like a windup motor stuck in a mini-me gravity bot toy . Topspin and Leadfoot and the little ones also showed up in Sainsbury's about 5 - 7 days ago as well as ASDA.

    And to think they distribute this nonsense widely and yet not Human Alliance Basics.

    It enough to make me wish for oddles of Scout repaints instead.

    I hadn't seen them before and the only thing I saw about them was the Hasbro pictures of them. Maybbe they slipped under people's radar due to the nature of them.
