After appearing on the Toys R Us website a few weeks ago, Cybertron Defense Red Alert has now statred to make it into actual Toys R Us stores, with a few sightings around the country in the last day. With the Transformers: Classics line available to the UK via Diamond Distribution at the same time that it is released in the US, it looks like Cybertron is going to be a real 'fst and filler' line for the UK with a seemingly random release pattern from each of the planets.

Auto Assembly: Target 2006 Pre-Registrations Closed With just FOUR DAYS to go, if you haven't pre-registered for Auto Assembly: Target 2006, it's too late! We have officially closed bookings today for what is hopefully going to be the biggest ever Transformers convention in Europe, but it doesn't mean you can't attend...
Pre-registrations have been great this year and we managed to beat the number of pre-registrations that we had for Auto Assembly 2005 and going by this rate we are well on target to beat the total number of attendees that we had last year which was 409. For those of you who were lucky enough to have beaten the booking deadline, we have sent out all of the confirmation packs and these should be with you any time now.
For those of you who have booked or who are coming along on the day, we have now put all the details on the website on what you need to do on the day and the procedures for checking in and how long we expect it will take. If you are thinking of coming along, we can now confirm that we have approximately 120
spaces left for anyone coming on the day so there should be spaces for most of you thinking of travelling to Birmingham although we would suggest arriving early to be at the front of the queue!
If you want to know more, please check out the Auto Assembly website at
www.autoassembly.org.uk or if you have any
questions please visit the forum at
http://autoassembly.proboards7.com where some of our team will try to answer any of your questions as quickly as possible.
Well, that's it for this final update. We're really excited about this
year's convention and we can't wait to see as many of you as possible on Saturday!

Icons OPTIMUS PRIME and MEGATRON Star in Special Edition DVD to Hit Retail Shelves This Holiday Season
New York, New York, May 30, 2006 - When MEGATRON said, "It's over
Prime," he had it all wrong. This fall, the home entertainment group of
SONY BMG Music Entertainment pulls out all the stops for the 20th
Anniversary of the pop culture phenomenon and original theatrical
release, TRANSFORMERS: The Movie with an explosive special edition DVD.
The new DVD marks the return of the out-of-this world animated big
screen bonanza that catapulted the likes of OPTIMUS PRIME, MEGATRON,
STARSCREAM, SOUNDWAVE and even the DINOBOTS into pop culture icons. The
TRANSFORMERS: The Movie 20th Anniversary Special Edition DVD will be
packed with premium features and behind-the-scenes footage developed
with input by and for TRANSFORMERS fans across the country.
TRANSFORMERS: The Movie 20th Anniversary Special Edition DVD will tap
into the huge, multi-generational TRANSFORMERS fan base. The special
edition DVD will power into retail stores across North America in
November 2006 -- just in time for the holiday gift giving season.
"The TRANSFORMERS franchise continues to thrive across multiple
platforms, and we are excited to celebrate this pop culture phenomenon
with a compelling new DVD tribute," said Jim Wilson, Executive Vice
President, General Manager of Home Entertainment for SONY BMG. "By
teaming with TRANSFORMERS fans, we have developed an exclusive product
with premium content and special features that will be sure to attract
fans of all ages."
The 20th Anniversary Special Edition DVD includes never-before-seen
footage, exclusive interviews, interactive games and collectible
packaging. The film features the voice of Orson Welles in his final
role, as well as stars Eric Idle, Judd Nelson, Leonard Nimoy, Casey
Kasem, Robert Stack, John Moschitta, Peter Cullen, and Frank Welker.
The DVD also features a winning soundtrack featuring the iconic theme
"The TRANSFORMERS" performed by Lion, and the popular "The Touch,"
performed by Stan Bush.
For more information on TRANSFORMERS: The Movie 20th Anniversary Special Edition DVD log onto www.TRANSFORMERSthemovieDVD.com
To coincide with the special edition DVD release, this fall Hasbro will
pay a special tribute to the rich history captured in the saga that is
MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE with the TRANSFORMERS Classics line of figures.
Available in November 2006, these new figures will feature updated
versions of the first generation of TRANSFORMERS (or "G1"), inspired by
the look and spirit of the original figures and characters.

still to be held'.

We are pleased to announce the Cougar statue will be available for pre order next Saturday at Auto Assembly.
There is no money to be paid up front you simply enter your name and email address onto the pre order sheets provided at the TFauctions.com tables and we will email you when the statue is ready for shipping.
We only have 250 of these left, as the other 250 have been pre sold to retailers. This is the first time we are publicly putting the statue's on pre order as an offer to all AA attendee's.
If all pre orders are not filled at the show we then be taking the remaining pre orders on line as of Sunday 4
th June 2006.
Again there are only 250 left and once they have gone they have gone no more will be mad only the run of 500. The statue will also come with a free mini comic on the story of Cougar.
The statue may be at AA but due to time and the fact that he is being made in Argentina we will probably have extremely Hi Res pictures of him from every angle possible.
Thanks again and we look forward to seeing everyone next Saturday at AA 2006.
