In an update over on FullMetalHero.com, Kapow Toys posted the following announcement yesterday:
"We received the full UK product listings up until Wave 3 today and the
new HA Basic's are not listed unless they are infact included in the
cyberverse line up but that looks unlikely. Perhaps this is a direct
result of the poor sales of the ROTF Human Alliance line which as most
people know Hasbro are still trying to clearance at half price and
without much success.
We will post the full UK waves later today and try and hopefully get firm word on the the fate of the HA line soon."
Does this mean that the UK won't get the scouts at all, or will they find their way into Tesco and Asda via their US deals? Time will tell

Kapow Toys are reporting, via their website
FullMetalHero.com, that the RRP for
Transformers toys are set to rise with the release of the
Transformers: Dark of the Moon line.
"This has yet to be confirmed directly by Hasbro but Forbidden Planet UK
have listed the following prices via their wholesale arm as the official
price points, the wholesale prices supplied which we cannot give out
would back up this price point if retailers are to make any money
1) Deluxe - £14.99
2) Voyager - £29.99
3) Leader - £59.99
4) Cyberverse Ark set - £44.99
5) Cyberverse Legends Basic - £5.99
6) Cyberverse Scouts - £12.99
Now this seems like a crazy move on Hasbros part if true, especially
after retailing RTS between - £10.95 - £12.95 on the domestic market."
