In the latest TV spot, number 20, some of the films humour is shown (*rolleyes*)

Hi I messaged Hasbro about information as to when stock for Generations Leaders will be shipping to Argos, mainly becuase I was bored asking Argos why they had none in stock.

Offical response from Hasbro UK on Facebook

The listing for the Generations Leader on the Argos site currently is a preview of the line that will be available in the Autumn-Winter catalogue, which launches at the end of July. Your best bet is always to speak to Argos about their planned stock intakes and timings, because they control their stock. Thanks Hasbro UK

Yay looks like they may be in soon then if the new catalogue is out next week.

It has been announced that Hasbro Inc and Rovio are teaming up to release a Transformers themed Angry Birds game.   Expect licensed products to be released within the next 12 months as well.

TakaraTomy have unveiled the prototype for the upcoming Masterpiece Star Saber figure at the 2014 Tokyo Toy Show. The figure, which of course won the Fan's Choice Poll, will be available later in the year andhas so far only been photographed in robot mode.
