You can remove the battle mask similar to TFA Voyager Prime, well that's what I heard anyway. I hope it at least uses a darker gray plastic, best would be the plastic from deluxe preview BB. And Forbidden planet has a preorder for him at around normal UK Hasbro pricing, well it's 45 quid. So I think this'll be a regular non exclusive release.

Just thinking about it, I actually save money by buying this special and far better Takara one than buying the Hasbro one off the shelf. :lol:

You need to have Universe Hound and Cyclonus in your collection - they're the best of the line, I'd wait for the red Powerglide repaint to turn up before getting him though.

Movie stuff is likely to be available for months to come yet...

yeah, i was thinking myself that i should go for the older, rarer stuff first...so just need to choose between some classics or heffalump & munkky OPs

Doubtful that there'll be many reasonably priced Grimlock toys given who the guest of honour is this year...

I'm after
Henkei Hound
Universe Cyclonus

I can't really think of anything else right now. I will still buy to much even though I don't know what it will be yet.

Its quite hard to get MP Transformers these days, I bet that the AA will have them and the people with most money will take them straight away.

Been to the Woolworth memorial in Poundstretcher? My local had one mini-con 12-pack for £13.99. Should I bite? Bear in mind that I've already got one set but I'd hate to open it. I notice that Detour/Dead End is now available in both names, who'll get both? Oh, and hi! I'm moving house and only t'internet back yesterday. Welcome RM! Watch out for gonads; Or something...
