In their latest News Letter, Big Bad Toy Store had the following to say regarding the UK release of 20th Anniversary Optimus Prime :-
MASTERPIECE OPTIMUS PRIME: Hasbro UK will be releasing the 20th
Anniversary Masterpiece Prime this summer and we are importing some for
everyone who missed out on the US release! Hasbro USA won't be releasing
any domestically from what we've heard. Preorders for the 20th prime, one
of the most popular items we've ever sold are open at $99.99 (The retail
price in the UK is around $80 to $90) The packaging will be updated and
some sort of a display stand may also be included, but we don't have any
final details yet - reserve yours now here:

Transformers @ The Moon has been updated to version 6.4.0 which introduces our first
Live Search feature. It also includes a few bug fixes to the
Toy Gallery area in general.
The
Live Search can be found on the main
Toy Gallery page (under the content section on the left menu, incase you hadn't realised). Live Search utilities the Web2.0 technologies to allow you to find matches to a search as you type. There is no need to press any search buttons and wait for the page to reload. Older browers may not support the Live Search, but it has been fully tested in both Mozilla Firefox 1.5 and Internet Explorer 6 on both Windows and Linux.
Why not drop by our messge board to let us know what you think.

TF @ The Moon - Sake CommentsFor any of you who haven't booked up for Auto Assembly: Target 2006 yet (shame on you!!), we'll be at Memorabilia this weekend at the NEC and you'll be able to buy your tickets/pre-order merchandise there.
We may have back issues of The Cybertronian Times, AA pin badges and other goodies there for sale too and Sven will have various bits for sale from his final stock clearance.
Just look for the massive AA banner on the stand!

Payres of
TFW2005 reports that The Entertainer now have the Red Armada Powerlinx Thrust for sale:
"I've just returned from The Entertainer in Kingston. They had a new
wave of Transformers Armada toys in. Armada's been gone from the UK for
nearly 2 years now so this has to have been sitting in a warehouse
somewhere since then. They had on the shelves 1 x PL Cyclonus, 4 x
Armada Airazor with Nightscream (quite rare in herself I believe) and 2
x Red Powerlinx Thrust."

Cartoon Network, here in the UK, have pulled Transformers Cybertron from their station with
no current plans for a return. The decision is expected to be down to poor viewing figures. Transformers: Energon is still being show though on the channel.
