eBay seller riflescopeshop has posted two listings on the auction website for the upcoming Botcon 2012 exclusive Shattered Glass Octopunch. The figure, who was recently revealed thanks to ACToys, is a recolour of the HFTD Seaspray. The new images that were posted on ebay show the figure in robot mode for the first time. You can view the auctions here and here and can see the images below.
ACToys.net have posted an image of what appears to be a new Botcon 2012 figure ... Octopunch! The toy is a recolour of the Hunt For The Decepticons Seaspray.
Our thanks go out to Minion and Tamuchly for reporting sightings over the last few weeks of Tesco stores stocking reduced Hunt For The Decepticon figures. The deluxe toys are currently half price at £6.49 with the Voyagers reduced to just £9.99
Thanks to several people including Galvy and Sharp-o from our board for reporting sightings of some new Hunt For the Decepticons scouts including Hubcap, Insecticon, Oil pan and Breacher. The toys have been spotted in Tesco's and ASDA in various places around the UK
More sightings of the newer Hunt For The Decepticon waves roll in. Some of the latest two are from Duckstar and Omegastoopreme. Duckstar submitted the following sighting:
"Hi spotted both Voyager HFTD Battle Blades Prime and Banzaitron in Sainsburys Romford.
Best of all both half price £9.99." and Omegastoopreme "Just picked up Banzaitron, the second wave of HFTD Voyager class figs have hit the UK. A couple of local small toy shops had a few I believe they were Toymaster offshoots and they have also hit in Waitrose. To anyone in the south east Essex area they were in Toys N Tuck in Rayleigh, Southend, Woodgham and Maldon."
I have also had reports that Axor is available from some Sainsbury's for just £6.00.
Our thanks go to Hob for reporting
that Tesco's are now stocking Hunt For The Decepticons Axor. For those
who have forgotten, Axor is a recolour of the Lockdown figure.
The toy will also be available from Boots who have plenty of future UK Transformers listed on their online store, though most are currently out of stock.
Kapow also pointed out that they received a solid case of just Sidearm Sideswipe so it looks like some it might prove difficult to track down some of these figures

Thanks to Omega Stoopreme for letting us know that Tesco has Wave 1 for Hunt for the Decepticons.
TESCO have just got wave 1 of the Hunt For The Decepticons Deluxe figures for £12.97. The one near me in Southend-on-Sea had Deluxe Ironhide, Battle Blade BB, Sea Attack Ravage and Jetblade. I picked up BB, All new mold, very nice best BB deluxe so far in my opinion.
Thanks to Phill for posting the following toy sightings on our message board.
"Edinburgh Forbidden Planet had the Deluxe and Leader classes of the Hunt
for the Decepticons in. Leaders were £44.99 and Deluxes were £12.99.
Starscream looks a lot better than the Voyager one.
On another
note I spoke to someone in Tesco, and they said that if there's no
Generations in the catalogue, then they're unlikely to get them in the
store. Also was told that they're likely to only have 3 HftD Voyagers in
between now and Christmas as the catalogue only says 3 to collect. So
that's Seaspray, Payload and the redeco Ratchet."
YouTube user nando323 has posted a video on You Tube titled Transformers 3 Movie filming on 43th Street and Main in which you can make out the vehicle representations of Bumblebee along side the Ferrari 458 Italia and the Convertible Corvette Stingray.
Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Sideswipe originally used the Corvette mode, so it is highly likely this will simply be an upgraded form for that character. Sideswipe had a short role and one line in the second live action Transformers Movie.
The character represented by the Ferrari is still unknown.
For those wondering, Mattle now has the rights to the original Corvette Stingray car (for toy representations), so the change in model with keep the agreement between GM and Hasbro.
