ACToys.net poster RioRyo has posted images of a blue recolour of Transformers Classics Bumblebee. The figure, which looks like Botcon Glyph is most likely a Botcon 2010 exclusive, possible based on the
G1\G2 Accelerator Skram. On the thread over at ACToys RioRyo posts that the toy is made from blue plastic and will "
apparently not come with the faction symbol", which is an indication that the toy is a early testshot of a Botcon figure.

TFW2005.com members Locustreign and Unitedbot have posted a response from the Hasbro UK Transformers Brand Manager regarding various Transformers items that should see, and in some cases will not see, a release on this shores with 2010.
The email states that the Transformers Revenge of the Fallen N.E.S.T. Scouts and Deluxes figures will be released and that Masterpiece Grimlock will be released in the 2nd half of the year as a Toys 'R Us exclusive. The mail goes on to state that both the Transformers Revenge of the Fallen N.E.S.T. Voyagers-class and Transformers Animated Arcee and Autobot Ratchet Cybertron Mode will see not be released within the United Kingdom.
Now even though the email is from the current Transformers Brand Manager this is not a 100% confirmation that those toys will not be released. In many instances in the past we have been told that figures would or would not be released within the UK which went on to be dis-proven. This is often because the brand managers do not know specific names of items within assortments, that they simply make a mistake, or that things change over time and certain stores import the figures through US based partner companies such as Target or Walmart. This is more likely to be the case for the NEST figures as Hasbro were pushing them hard pre the UK toy fair.

The-Arker have posted several in-packaging images for the two upcoming Leader-class figures. The first is the Battle Hooks
Optimus Prime toy and the second is Leader Class
Starscream. You can view the images by clicking the links.
For those wondering Optimus Prime's profile reads as the following:
OPTIMUS PRIME is under no illusions about how dangerous STARSCREAM really is. The DECEPTICON second-in-command might be a coward, but he's still smart and powerful enough to present a real threat to Earth. The AUTOBOT leader has human and AUTOBOT agents combing the globe for the hiding air warrior. As soon as they find him, though, it will be OPTIMUS PRIME alone who goes in to bring him down.
