In a double-header, we are pleased to bring you another Transformers toy gallery, once again focusing on the Transformers Collectors Club exclusive toys.

This second update, in only a few minutes, sees the Transformers Collectors Club Universe/Classics Punch - Counterpunch.

The figure had a mixed reaction after it was released, we picked ours up at BotCon 2011, and actually really like the toy.  Yes there are some things that could be improved, but we are big fans of the mould.

The next Transformers toy gallery in our unrivaled Transformers Toy Resource area from our trip to BotCon 2011 is that of the Transformers Collectors Club Shattered Glass Cyclonus.

There are 71 images in the gallery, and we have more Transformers Toy Galleries waiting in the wings, so make sure you check back daily.

Auto Assembly have issued a new press release announcing yet another guest for this years convention.  You can find the press release in full below.

Our thanks go to Pete Brown and Shadowdancer for the following Transformers toy sighting reports.

Shadowdancer reports that he has "just been to Toys R Us and they have in stock Generations Scourge, Sergent Kup, Cliffjumper and Soundwave. I also noticed small 4 figure pack Legends (DOTM) and the massive Sentinal prime, Bumblebee and Prime as of yet no Shockwaves. Also at Toymasters in Letchworth they had a few RTS Windcharger at £7.99 i got two of them."

Pete Brown, on the other hand, has sent in some Tesco sightings and discounted figures.  "My local tesco at Tower Park, Poole is selling all Dark of the Moon deluxes for £8.49 and the Legends size cyber-verse toys for £2.99 each."

We are pleased to once again be able to run a competition for one lucky visitor to our website to win a pair of tickets to the exclusive FDA screening of Transformers: Dark of the Moon at the Odeon in Leices­ter Square, London, England on Monday the 27th June 2011. The screening takes place at 6:30pm with the doors opening at 5:45pm.

To enter the competition all you need to do is to click the +1 (plus one) button at the end of this news article and then enter your email address when prompted. You must have a Google account to enter as we are using the Google Plus one system to help us collate the entries and stop duplication. The winner, who will be picked at random, will be announced on Sunday evening and will need to collect the pair of tickets directly from us on the day. Unfortunately the tickets only arrived today so we have been unable to run this competition earlier.

Good look everyone.
