Thanks to Supreme Unicron for letting the
Trans-Europe Express members know that Transformers: Cybertron Repugnus, Shortround and Giant Planet minicons are now out in Holland. Also, Supreme Unicron reports that
this thread, over on Trans-Europe Express member site BTFA.net, reports that
"A listing at the website of Bart Smit describes a Tank an terrainvehicle and a jet as choices for Deluxe TF's, so the next deluxes will probably be Unicron, Cannonball and Skywarp (apparently skipping the wave 6 deluxes)"

Pnova posted on our
Transformers forum that Tescos have the Attacktix figures for £4.98 for the set of 4 (Skyblast x 2, Overahul and Dirtboss). They also have the Booster set for £4.97.
Another
forum member, Sideways, has also spotted the booster set in Tescos, so if they are not near you now they should be soon.

Over the past couple of weeks, the folks over on the Transformers New Zealand message board, have posted a couple of noteworth news stories which we didn't pick up on.
The first was by the site admin regarding
future releases in New Zealand including Cybertron, Titanium and Classics.
"CYBERTRON
Only asked about the Ultra assortment since that's all that most of
really want (and we'll be sure to see more Deluxe/Scout anyway)
Hasbro have a case ON ORDER and is shipping here, due Mid-October. The case assortment is as follows:
1x Wing Saber
1x Menasor (with Heavyload)
1x Cyro Scourge
NO Sky Shadow for NZ it seems.
TITANIUMS - NOT getting first wave of Titanium 6 inch, due in at end of September (on shelves in October) will be a case of:
1x Optimus Prime
1x GI Joe Megatron
1x Jetfire
1x Thundercracker
Didn't bother asking about the 3"
CLASSICS- Due out on toy shelves 1st November.
Deluxe, Voyager and Legends classes. A case with Grimlock/Mirage will be out shortly after first wave, but possibly not before Christmas.
ALTERNATORS
Nothing new to report sadly, more cases of
Prime/Mirage/Meister/Tracks on ways to stores apparntly. No sign of
Camshaft yet, could be a order before Christmas though, so not all bad."
The second was from member zippo regarding some
old UK Transformer DVDs now being available in Warehouse stores.
"
UK Released, region 2 (so you need a multizoned player) Maverick
released Volumes 1.1, 1.3, Gen 2 and Takara as well as the Gi Joe Movie
(with extras) for $10 each."Thanks to the
Transformers New Zealand.

Its been a while since
Auto Assembly 2006, and you may well have noticed the lack of updates over on the AA website, well that changed today and Simon has posted several updates including an update on the Charity Auction results from AA2006, the sad passing of Brett Reynolds and the AA free fiction special. You can read all of the updates on the
AA website, but below you will find a summary of two of the stories.
Auto Assembly: Target 2006 Aftermath
It's been a while since we updated the website but Auto
Assembly: Target 2006 was a great success! Everyone who came along seemed to
enjoy the day and although attendance was down slightly from Auto Assembly 2005
(400 from 409) we beat our charity fundraising efforts from the previous year
raising £1,000 for the Acorns Childrens Hospice Trust, had a great guest
line up and everyone seemed to love David Kaye, and everyone seems eager for
Auto Assembly 2007 so stay tuned...
FREE Fiction Special
We had an incredible amount of entries for the fiction
competition for Auto Assembly: Target 2006 and while we including some of them
in Issue 8 of The Cybertronian Times, we couldn't include all of them so we've
decided to pull them all together in a one-off fiction special along with cover
art from Simon Williams and a bonus story from Brett Reynolds. This should be
available in the next week or two and will be available FREE from the website
as a downloadable PDF file. We still haven't decided the winner of the fiction
competition yet as we simply haven't had the time to judge the entries but this
is where YOU come in...
What we want you to do is download the fanzine and then pop
over to the Auto
Assembly Forum where you can vote for your favourite story. We'll keep the
voting open for a month and then declare the winner!!

The USPTO have updated three old trademarks of Hasbros with a note of "Paper received". Which papers these comments relate too, we do not know, but assume, due to their age, that they are in relation to extending the marks past their 20th year as none of the applications has received any update for over 10 years.
Metroplex - Serial Num: 73590885, RegNum: 1411525
Menasor - Serial Num: 73590889, RegNum: 1411528
Galvatron - Serial Num: 73593456, RegNum: 1416111
