PRIMUS (!) out in the UK!

Mr Dogworm posted the following on TF @ The Moon - Sake Comments

Found at Dominoes toys in Leicester:

here and here

Skyshadow and Wing Sabre were there too (I know they are for sale on Hasbro UK's site, but I think this is the first time they have showed up in an actual shop.

It's the non-Unicron version by the way. I didn't want it (I wanted the zombie Unicron head dangit!), but seeing it in the plastic just melted away my composure. That's the best pic I could get of the receipt, though if anyone really wants me to I could scan it. Price was £49.99.

Primus is in US packaging, complete with boxart. HOWEVER- it isn't an import, it came directly from Hasbro UK (my mate works at Dominoes). It came the shame shipment as Skyshadow, Wing Sabre and the SWTF Millienuim Falcon. It is worth noting that the Supreme Starscreams I saw in TRU were also in US packaging with boxart, so maybe Hasbro are just importing them? Do they sell Supremes on the continent?

It seems that Hasbro UK have completely axed the tech specs from the their boxes. Wing Sabre and Skyshadow just have their features listed in 12 (!) different languages.

Cybertron in the new Argos Catalogue

Toymachine posted the following on TF @ The Moon - Sake Comments

"They have listings for Deluxe, Voyager and Ultra Class as well as a Legends of Cybertron 4 pack at £9.99 (OP, SS, Megs and a red Hotshot repaint).
The Deluxe figure pictured is Crosswire and for the Voyager and Ultra's they have pictures of Soundwave and Menasor.
I tried to get a viewing for all but the LOC's, but Voyager and Ultra's are only available through Argos Extra and they'd take a week to arrive if ordered and there's also no way to know what you would get.
Anyway I was able to view the Deluxe class and they brought out a Downshift."

Board member Neo-Primus checked his local Argos Extra and found "Evac, CD Red Alert, CD Hotshot and Downshift."
