TFWorld2005 have picked up on a story from The Globe and Mail (a Canadian newspaper), that Canadian Customs have performed a u-turn on the rules which banned the import of Transformers Masterpiece Megatron due to it's realistic look. The Customs report states that due to the oversized nature of the figure it could not be misinterpreted as a replica gun and therefore can be imported into the country.

TakaraTomy have updated their Transformers website with a page for Encore 11 Thundercracker and Skywarp. Although the page is new, there is nothing new in terms of information regarding this items.

TFormers have a few images from the TakaraTomy stand at the summer Wonder Festival 2008. The display shows of the deluxe and ultra Transformers Henkei versions of the new Transformers Universe toys (Onslaught, Powerglide, Silverbolt, Sunstreaker and Prowl).

We hope to bring you more images from the show a little later on.
