Some news from the UK Toy Fair

From TFW2005

The return of Transformers Generations / Fall of Cybertron toys - Fall of Cybertron gets toys under the Generations branding. There are eight new releases planned, the only one definitely confirmed as of this time is Fall of Cybertron Jazz.

Optimus Maximus - A large-scale Cyberverse citybot, it is said to be a Cyberverse base playset that can also transform into a full robot mode. Scale is somewhere between Ultimate Optimus and a Leader Class, features lights, sounds, firing missiles, launching vehicles.

Prime Weaponizers - Leader Class Transformers Prime toys, the first two confirmed are Optimus Prime and Bumblebee. These are apparently simplified for the sake of the kids playing with them and feature deployable weapons - Optimus Prime has chainguns that pop out of his cab and mount on his shoulders.

Kre-O Devastator - 9 in 1 playset - a mix of G1 style robots and movie tradition means you get 4 standard robots in movie Devy colours building seperate vehicles or the might Devastator - for those worried no he doesn't look anything like the hulking movie character. Comes with a slew of Kreons and construction environment.

Looking forward to seeing what the future has for us. It's been pretty slow for Transformers as of late for me.

Encores are always imported and sold by online retailers like Big Bad Toy Store, RobotKingdom, etc. The only place you could possibly find them at brick and mortar-wise is at your local comic or collectible shop.

slow... i have yet to even see any signs of the TF Prime figures at retail. the pegs are clogged with DOTM TF's and even some ROTF TF's... i really wish that a Hasbro rep would start pulling the 10,000 Bumblebee's already and restock with new TF's

"RID"/Prime stuff just started hitting TRU in the states according to tfw...

[CadBane]

It's stupid they didn't have the prime stuff out for Christmas. Although I guess it really doesn't matter to me anymore. I thought megatron looked awesome at first but now the coloring doesnt look good anymore too light and I'm not picky at all. AlSo thanks for the info landogriffin I have always watched g1 but just started collecting a few things awhile ago and thought encore was in store like the Insecticons and etc.
