BT-16 Skids Box featuring .... Vauxhalls?

Thanks to Cavster for dropping us an email about something he noticed on the bottom of his BT-16 Skids box. Here's what he had to say...
...just got my BT-16 SKids in post today and spotted on the rear of the box a pic of several UK registered Vauxhall cars!!!!
A MK-IV Astra, several Vectras and what looks like a Corsa C (My car). Could this mean that Takara may release some Vauxhalls/Opels?? Or perhaps some other UK cars??? Just thought you guys might like to know."

It could mean that, it could mean nothing, either way it'll be interesting to see if there are more Binaltech / Alternator toys based on cars that are actually out in the UK.

Cybertron toys due for UK release in Jan?

godsenddeath has posted an interesting topic over on the TFW2005 Boards regarding a possible Janurary release of the Cybertron toys with the UK. Here is what he had to say...

Apparently, a UK comic called Toxic is running a comp to win the full Cybertron line
"When it's released in January"

Since Megatron is specifically mentioned, it seems that it will be released in the UK market whereas some European countries
have (thus far at least) missed out on it.

No confirmation on what the 'full' UK line will be, but the time lapse follows the general lag that there was with Armada and Energon.
