We can confirm that Nightwatch Optimus Prime is in store at Argos from today, as we picked ours up this morning. He costs £39.99 (that's $80 US!). We received a free lenticular Transformers Movie Bumblebee poster with our purchase. The poster is 18.5 x 27 inches and is flat packed on cardboard. More on this in a minute.
Edit Having just looked over the box of Nightwatch Optimus Prime, I noticed something rather interesting. The box is not the huge multi-lingual box that he UK toys have been released in over the last few year. Its not even a Canadian box, but instead something new. The box is for the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand only. As such, all of the writing is only in English, the full Leader Class heading can be found on the side of the box rather than just Leader, the full Automorph technology story appears on the side of the box rather than the just "Faster Version" in 12 languages. Is this the start of UK toys being repacked and the UK Transformers market splitting back away from the rest of Europe to join with Australia and New Zealand only? If this is the case, this could have a massive effect on the UK market changing not only what toys are released, but also when. Australia and New Zealand in recent years, have often seen toys released much earlier than Europe, as well as the full range.

TheTranformers.net member thejuggernaught has
posted images of Transformers Movie Ultimate Bumblebee which we purchased for £79.99 from Toys R Us in Nottingham. The figure has not yet been released in the US yet, where it has an RRP of around $90 (£45-£50). The figure was on show at BotCon 2007 and looked far less than ultiamte.

The Robot Replica figures are now in at Toys R Us. These are the non-transforming action figures and the first wave consists of Bumblebee, Barricade and Megatron. They are very similar to the Star Wars unleashed figures, only poseable.
