The latest Auto Assembly video has been published and is a guest update video which you can view below,

The Allspark have spotted some interesting auctions on ebay for what may be a reissue Transformers Classics Jetfire and a Gold Chrome Chest Version  of Fall of Cybertron Grimlock.

Classics Jetfire has an Autobot insignia on his chest but Decepticon emblems on his wings whilst the Fall of Cybertron Grimlock figure comes with chrome gold paint, akin to the Takara Generations release, but placed a little differently on this figure. This version of Grimlock is thought to be the Platinum Series version mentioned at Toy Fair 2013, which is to be released in a giftset bundled with Fall of Cybertron Bruticus.
