Saw the Cyberverse commanders in Sainsbury's today. £8.99.
And they're trying their luck with RoTF legends - now up to £4.99!

Saw DOTM Cyberverse figures in The Entertainer and John Lewis, they both had meagre stocks of the Commander sized figures but at around £9! Thats steep imo. They had the next size up with Mech Tech or whatever its called....Wanted Blackout Commander figure and Powerglide but no avail...
Was tempted by the £9 Sentinel Prime but its too dear a cost for a small toy.

Blackout and Powerglide are wave 2 Cyberverse Commanders, not sighted in the UK.
Hatchet and the Op repaint are wave 3.

Picked up Voyager Megs and Cyberverse Crankcase & Topspin in Toymaster Southend. That Voyager Prime is a complete joke! So small. Megs however is worth getting.

Plenty of DOTM in Sainsburys Haymarket. Bumbleebee and Starscream Cyberverse Action Sets: £17. Voyagers £21, Legions, Commanders, etc.
The only thing which stopped the 'sod the high prices, the red haze is upon me' effect was lack of energy for carrying plastic crack. And the need to reacquire trousers before toys, budet-wise.
The Action Sets look much chunkier in the plastic.

Mr Merrifield is in TRU Chester. He has found many of the sold-out-everywhere-else MP Grimlocks.
He has also found DOTM Leader Sentinel Prime.

I popped into Asda yesterday, the first time for a couple of weeks. I was surprised to find that they had no DOTM at all. Possibly, they're clearing older stock first as there were only a few Scouts there (normally lots) and a fairly low number of Legends. Mindset and Fallback continue to warm the bottom shelf.

There was indeed a small army of a dozen MP Grimlocks for £59.99 a pop.
Also a new wave of pcc two packs - couple of jets, a helicopter (Windburn) and an anti-aircraft vehicle.
Didn't see any Cyberverse playsets but they had leader class Bumblebee and Sentinel Prime. And some movie version of Starscream in gold packaging.
Lots of RotF, gold packaged stuff and DotM stuff about. The mad pricing is showing there as they have pegs of all the different deluxes next to each other - RotF @ £8, Universe @ £10 and the smaller DotM @ £13.
Madness.

DoTM "Voyagers" spotted in Toymaster in Falkirk. Not sure who they are trying to kid - those are deluxes packaged with an oversized add-on weapon, and priced at twenty-three Earth pounds. Even if they weren't live action movie toys I wouldn't be particularly interested in those.

I shall await promos before acquiring the Cyberverse Action Sets.
'Voyager' Ironhide and Megs actually look like fun toys, but not at full price!

You might remember that back in January I said that Hasbro had just two Transformers on general display at Toy Fair - Ironhide and Starscream. At the time I thought they were both Deluxe, but from people's reactions at seeing the size of toys on the shelves and not yet having seen any myself, I have to wonder if that Ironhide was actually a Voyager. If so, yikes! That's small!

I've just picked up Generations Scourge and spotted Sergeant Kup for £15 each in FPL.
I probably should know this already, but how can you work out the intended market from the toy packaging? The back card shows a Hasbro US 2010 copyright message, while the bottom (next to the barcode) makes reference to UK, australia and New Zealand distributors.

They put the UK/Aus/NZ details on everything these days, if you look. I saw DOTM in a shop for the first time yesterday: Sainsbury's. They had Voyager, Deluxe, Legion and Commanders. Some Deluxe, I don't know which, had "Exclusive to Sainsbury's" stickers. The Voyagers are small, aren't they? There was a Strafe handy for comparison. Ironhide didn't look too bad in robot mode. The Commanders are small, too. Edit: They did have the Bumblebee and blue Sideswipe in this link, which I think were the stickered stock, I'm not sure if any others were also stickered: www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-toys--products-30/dark-of-the-moon-wal-mart-and-tru-exclusive-deluxe-figures-171872/

I'll note that's the first UK sighting of them and the first UK sighting of DOTM in ASDA. In the US they're 1 per case mixed in with wave 1 toys, mainly Primes sadly, so unless the UK has fiddled their case assortments expect them to be in short supply.
