It was in a WHSmith. Concessions is not the word I would use, but the inflated prices fitted in well with the store.

A few shelves in Smiths with TRU branding

This was a whole big section of a WHSmith, not just a few shelves.

There was even a display telling the history of TRU. But not mentioning it's closure.

I'm going to get really confused if we have to buy toys in Smiths as well as Smyths.

We'll have to start pronouncing the "WH" at the start of one of them. Or start pronouncing the other one as "Smayethes"...

Found a Beast Alliance ROTB Arcee in B&M. Couldn't find a price tag. Left it there due to Current Circumstances.

I probably should have mentioned that I saw Medix in FP in Birmingham last weekend. I pondered getting him, but didn't bother circling back after I picked up the Gunpla I picked up for "future customs" stock in the end.

The larger BW Cheetor and Optimus Primal* authentics found in Home Bargains. £11.
-Ralph
*Different from the smaller (and very good) Authentics Primal that The Entertainer is carrying.

Those wily old buzzards!
I'm glad I didn't know about the Toy Barn when I lived there, or I would have been very poor (or even poorer - the train fares were ridiculous).

I saw a Gi Joe Soundwave in Game today - but still at the usual £100+ price unfortunately.

When it drops to £50 or below I will bite. The first two Joe Crossovers dropped to below 50% off. So will this. I can be patient.

Top toy. I transformed it on Sunday night. Very solid vehicle. This one's as good as Megatron with a more traditional transformation being a car. Lovely stuff.

Merch and toys are out in other countries and film promotion is underway here: Transform a Snack packs and Shell garages. I'm just puzzled not to see anything on shelves.

Bogatan said Home Bargains have bags of TF fun (a packet with a bouncy ball, stickers etc). But I looked and there was nothing there!!!

Getting a tad worried about my local Smyths (Aylesbury).
In the last few days, they've drastically reduced the shelf space for Transformers toys.
I'm HOPING it's just where they've cleared out all the 'Rise of the Beasts' stuff that wasn't selling (despite being discounted), and it goes back to being a bigger section as all the new figures are released over the coming weeks and months.
