Please use this thread for sightings only and the new thread for discussing Transformers toys and related merchandise. Guidelines have been posting in the first post about what is acceptable in that thread.

Reviews and feedback of figures still goes in the Feedback forum, modding figures goes in the Radicons section, eBay links are to be posted in the eBay forum and sightings in this, the UK Sightings thread.

TRUs are getting the Supercon Prime & Blurr assortment at last.

Also sighted in the John Lewis in Brent Cross.

TRUs also getting Wave 2 & 3 minicons.

Yeah I did see that with Omega Supreme... its just the whole thing of charging £60 for a mass market toy, its madness.

Corby ASDA carries no Transformers, and according to the toy department guy, doesnt intend to.

Spotted Cybertron in Brent X TRU, Scouts (£7) and Supreme Starscream (£50). No sign of deluxes yet though.

Fenwick Brent X also has Cybertron Scouts (£7) and Voyagers (Crumplezone and Vector Prime) for £20.

On a side note TRU also restocked on their Actionman ATOM stuff, looks like Hasbro UK are trying to get stock out before Half term next week.

Just grabbed myself Scattorshot and Overhaul from Tesco Stevenage today - and they had one Ransack left, as well as a fair few Snarls and Sideways!!

By 10pm GMT Tonight, I will know if any Tesco Stores in Northamptonshire carry Cybertron Scouts, or anything larger.
