I think this year's annual was mentioned a while back in the tat thread, but I thought I'd give it its own thread to highlight the fact that like last year's, Home Bargains has it for just 99p!
An improvement on the last two or three annuals, this year's book includes a text version of the story, lots of puzzles and activities, a brief character profile section (which doesn't really cover enough characters, unfortunately) and a "space bridge pillar development" map.

I can go get it now. £3 was the cheapest before. I'm not paying more than £1 for these Movie annual unless they start having new strip stories in them or reprint comics.

If I can find one going cheap somewhere then I'll get one (I do want a copy to go with the previous years, but not that badly)

Last year's annual turned up in Poundland before other retailers. I expect this year's to head there swiftly too!

The prophecy comes true. Two large piles of them in separate parts of a Poundland today. I hope Andu enjoys his copy...

Harper Collins published it, still shit, but not quite at Pedigree level.

MTMTE and RID annuals did me fine, woeful hardback uk cashin jobbies are sadly tarnishing the formerly awesome reputation such items once had.

Animated got an annual - but Prime isn't good enough [sure Hasbro are happy with that?]. At least RID got a cancelled one - but BW never got one.

I doubt Hasbro care, someone buys the rights and they approve just about any old nonsense, so I don't get the impression UK exclusive stuff is getting much attention these days.

At least TFP Megatron is advertising Smyths toy shops. But would there be an annual next year? Could HC [or whoever has it] paid Hasbro fee for annual for set number of years?

I imagine we will find out soon if there is another 'annual' due this year.

They should have been listed by now with the annual being out in august time - should have been up for order last month.
