Our friends over at TF08.net have posted a slew of new pictures showing off the finer points of the mold and how it looks next to Black Convoy. They also show a few images of the box in the classic style of the BinalTech style box as well as a quick shot of the instructions.

Weather you think this mold has been done too many times, or you think it looks like a must have to add to your collection, feel free to converse about it by clicking the DISCUSS button above.

BlackMagnus has found more information about the new Transformers Animated Entertainment Two-pack of Jetfire and Jetstorm.

Entertainment Earth seems to have been provided with a product description of sorts.

* Twin Transformers for twice the fun!
* Figures can combine and transform individually!
* Includes a DVD!

They're brothers in arms! The Autobot forces have never been stronger, and now that Jetfire and Jetstorm are on the team, they can do no wrong! This thrilling set of twin jets features two awesome figures with their own personalities that can, for the big fight, combine and fight! Megatron and his Decepticon army don't stand a chance when Optimus sends these two out on the battlefield.

Do they combine in robot modes like Energon Autobot Powerlinxing? Do they combine in jet modes like the Generation 1 Powermasters, Dreadwind and Darkwing? Both? When more is known, we'll be sure to share.

You can see the Entertainment Earth product listing here. This two-pack is currently scheduled to be released sometime in December, priced around $25USD.

Thanks to STngAR, we now know of another, slightly cheaper option for ordering the HasbroToyShop Universe Deluxe Special Editions--as a set of 4!

Instead of purchasing Overkill, Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Dragstrip separately, you can now purchase them in one lump set for $59.99.

This saves you about $4.00, if you are ordering the 4 separately (regular price is $15.99 each).

Those who are frugal among us, and variant package collectors will get a kick out of this.

'clonemanager' found this 'Super Value' pack at his local Toys R' Us in a store in California. According to the sighting poster, there was no sign of the possibly more desired leader class Megatron 'Super Value' pack that is sold with bonus Activators Starscream.

Found these items in your area? Let us know in the Sightings Forum, and update the Sightings Database to help out your fellow collectors.

It looks like our UK members have a little something to be excited about.

According to Moonbug, there is a new two pack available to Toys R' Us UK stores. The two pack is of Animated Ratchet and Bumblebee, apparently with no changes from their individual releases. The only real significance is for Mint In Sealed Box, and variant package collectors.

The two toys are packaged in such a manner as it is believed that it is meant to look as if Ratchet is fixing Bumblebee, or applying the rocket engines using his tools.

No pictures were provided. Any of our UK members who see one and can snag us a picture, it would really be appreciated.
