Thanks to Phill for posting on our message board that Woolworths are not only
stocking Optimus Prime's, as reported on the 20th, but they also now have Repugnus, Shortround and the Giant Planet MiniCons as well. This is great news for Transformer fans within the UK, as Woolworths are certainly the most widespread longtime stockist, who dropped Transformers earlier in the year. Not all Woolies have started stocking the toys again just yet, but we expect that to start happening as the Movie gets closer and the Classics line is released towards the end of next month here in the UK.

TF @ The Moon - Sake CommentsSpotted 2 Cybertron Optimus Primes In my local branch this afternoon.
There was no ticket on the shelf so unfortunately I wasn't able to find out the price.
I checked the Alts while I was there and they haven't sold any of the eight they got in last week.
