Variants of Transformers Universe: Mini-Con sweet figures

You may remember the article we posted last week concerning the new Transformers Universe Mini-Con blind packs that have been found in the UK. Well apart of being, as of yet, exclusive to the UK we do know that there are variants.

There is one variation each Mini-Con has setting it apart from the original release and that is the Copyright stamp. The original versions of these Mini-Cons had a TakaraTomy and a Hasbro Copyright stamp, while these have just a Hasbro Copyright stamp. A Minor difference but it's still a difference, if you care for it.

However there are 3 real variants, one of which is not just a repaint but also a remould!

What follows is the complete list of Mini-Cons that are available in the set, including the variants and mis-assembled figures.

Note that this list is based on figures that have been found and that there may be a chance, a very slight chance, that there are additional variants. Should this be the case we will update you on this!
