Turns out those rumours are true, as fellow News Staff ScottyP just today found a Glyph Decoder in a Toys R Us at Cary, NC! This will help you decode the Glyph language found not only on the upcoming exclusive toys, but in quite a few other places in previous Transformers fiction too - it was for instance used in Revenge of the Fallen, and much more recently it was the language used by Vos of the DJD in IDW's More Than Meets The Eye. Take a look at the decoder below, save it for future use if you like and tell us if you've found it in your local TRU in the forums!

Don't feel afraid to send things in; sometimes what might seem mundane might actually be worthy of a story. Sure, don't write in every time you see a Legion Underbite at your local supermarket, but a little saying we use is all news is news. If it's new information, we'll take it

It's from a scene in "A Christmas Story"

It was from the movie "A Christmas Story." I won't tell you a ton about it since you should watch it yourself (amazing holiday movie) but there's a part where the main character Ralphie is waiting for a decoder ring from the Little Orphan Annie radio show, which gives out a coded message at the end of every episode. Once it arrives the first message he gets to decode is "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine" since that's the show's sponsor. He gets mad and I'm pretty sure throws away the ring.
Thanks for the recommendation on Photobucket too, I'll give that a try.

I was browsing through Argos UK's website for The Last Knight figures, and it said that Deluxe Drift and Sqweeks are available for click and collect within 5 days, and you can order now. However, it is out of stock in their stores and for home delivery. But if you use click and collect, you can purchase Sqweeks and Drift, amongst others.

He sucks, but at least he only cost 15 bucks. Pretty sure I'll stay away from the rest of TLK figures. Blah.

Wave one seems to have good to alright molds. It's the colors that suck I know. But wave two and onward seems like they'll have some goldies like the new Bumblebee, Drift, and others, along with all the voyagers.
Even Crosshairs from the later waves looks good, and he's a repaint!

Fellow Seibertronian Chuckdawg has reviewed all three from the first wave: Grimlock, Bumblebee and Optimus Prime. So check out the review below if you are curious about these simpler toys and their mask/helmet gimmick.
chuckdawg1999 wrote:More figures released under the Turbo Changers header, the Knight Armor figures feature spring loaded helmets and very simple transformations. Grimlock is an ok figure with the most interesting helm, while Bumblebee suffers from weak knees. Optimus Prime is the best overall figure with an almost Samurai motif to his helmet.

But he's easily the worst of the new molds in wave 1. Thats like giving the Beatles a shot and first listening to Revolution #9.
I actually returned the toy to walmart under their "dissatisfaction policy".

I havent seen any stars yet, they all have major flaws. Prime comes close but that deco is just wrong. I dont need more paint but different paint. And those eyes are so damn weird, he looks like an anime character crying.
And am I the only one to have prime with shoulders that unclip easily?

I doubt it, the only current star for me is grimlock in that sweet deco, but only because I want the mold and don't have it yet.
Other than that, I'm waiting on the double megs' leader one is gonna be a bit weird with the extra long arms and if you orient them so he has functioning elbows and wrists, he's gonna have weird cavities right above them, but he looks so damn nice, and his faceplate

To be frank, aside from the Masterpieces, all we have are names, nothing else. Not even leaked toy images. My gut says we'll know more by Summer.

Drift I will probably get as well, for the reasons I've already mentioned several times before.

Optimus is alright. Robot mode looks better in hand than I thought it would, and I like the accessories and how they work with the figure (sword sheath on his back is nice). The backpack is there, but it's low profile. Transformation has a couple of clever bits in the legs. It's an improvement, at least, over my 2007 Movie Voyager and its ridiculous backpack.
Barricade has an even goofier backpack, but the figure has so much charm that I don't care. The accessories are cool, the knuckle dusters are quite amusing, and I love the fact that his legs do a decent impression of actual police boots. I think the overall deco looks great, and his car mode rolls surprisingly well, even with the weapons stored. It's not a great figure on paper, but there is so much personality in the mold that I can easily look past its faults.

Not that that's putting me off him. He's so cute and he'll have to be pretty annoying in the movie for me to not buy it.

Yeah, but the 2 that make up his arms seem to be part of some sort of system that allows for the arms to be swapped around, they do need to be removed for transformation, but this way you can customize the figure, actually seem pretty cool to me
Dunno, one of the arms looks pinned down to the work shop, so maybe not, I like that the handlebar arms seem to be able to fold away for vehicle mode, seems like hasbro put a lot of effort into making this figure, am very interested in seeing a video review of this guy
