This happens from time to time. Just one of those things. There's rarely a big delay before the US release anyway and it's nice to get a few things early considering how often big chunks of lines are skipped by Hasbro UK.

Is it me, or does that look more than a little like G1 Broadside's plane mode?

It does a little now you mention it.
Am I willing to make a 20 mile round trip by bus to get Cyberverse Energon Drill & Knockout? I'd ring ahead and see which one they have but have you any idea how hard it is to get an individual Argos store's phone number?

Yeah complete pain in the backside and even if you get the number you have to be lucky to get someone to pick up the phone.

What's the transforming lollipop character thing beneath the Convoys on the TakaraTomy link supposed to be?

AM-12 looking really nice, and I like the partner too (Just realised AM also echoes Action Master, which is not far off the play pattern with many of the Microns).
The Vehicon Micron isn't quite working for me. Looks like the weapon with legs, but still a pretty good weapon.
Knockout looks much better than the Hasbro release, hope the shininess isn't Photoshop Lies.

Promotional item for an ice cream company I believe.

Interesting. I like not-Steeljaw... And Red Breakdown? As well as the other large SUV type figure.

I like Thundertron, but honestly fancy the Cyberverse Ultra Magnus and Dreadwing toys more.
Shockwave is mostly working for me, but does he have two hands and a gun? That's not quite right.

Looking at the Prime pictures: Rumble and Dreadwing look pretty good. Knockout looks exceptional but I've seen it in FP Glasgow already. What the hell is "Thundertron" supposed to be? The alt mode looks like it might be Tigerhawk-ish which could be nifty but the robot mode is a technicolour mess. Maybe he works better on-screen.
Universal Studio Exclusives: oh look. Another deluxe Movie Bumblebee. Just what the world needs.

They do look rather good. Dreadwing/Skyquake is a particularly nice looking chap.

A new generation must learn the horror of the Beast Riders.
Someone should put old yella out of his misery. He has no mouth, but he must scream

It trumps the similar Optimus Maximus by being around £15 cheaper and including a Legion figure.

Ralph has a good point here. I do love my Optimus Maximus but it needed a pack in for that price.....
<gasps>
You know what it really needs? a White Optimus Prime Commanfer pack in, a lighter blue on the arms & legs, white for silver/grey and a new face faceplate and then it's be Ultra Maximus.
Hasbro, I have cash here for you!
