He promised that they were coming and ProtomanX has not failed to deliver as he has posted some new images of the upcoming third party figure BTS Novalord (no-Overload) onto his Twitter account. The images, which can be seen below with all of the images thus far of this figure being attached to this news story, include a robot mode comparison to the original Generation One figure as well as confirming that the toy will be able to hold the original Powermaster / Godmaster figures within his chest area. Enjoy!
Protomanx has posted some more images of the grey prototype of BTS Novalord (not-Overlord) onto his Twitter page with the promise that there is "More to come later today on TFW, and later this week......... ROBOT MODE!". The new images include pictures of all three vehicle modes (tank, jet and aircraft carrier) along with a size comparison to the original Generation One toy. From the images, this figure is going to be huge in robot form though it will probably have a very high price tag.

Twitter users Brent Michael Fury (Brentosaur) has tweeted an image of the Transformers Prime First Edition Bumblebee which he found on the shelves of his local Wal*Mart within the US. The first edition toys were reportedly not going to be available so does this mean those reports were wrong or is was there a mis-packaged case? Time will tell.

An image of the upcoming Transformers Cyberverse base/playset Optimus Maximus has been revealed over on Twitter http://i.imgur.com/kTT2I.jpg. You can view the image below.
With the Transformers Prime figures hitting the UK today we are interested to find out which figures have been sighted in which areas of the country. We picked up Deluxe Cliffjumper, Bumblebee and Soundwave! You have you found? Let us known on our Forum, via Twitter, Facebook or Google+.
For those wondering where the CE marking is on Soundwave, as the sticket / paint app can often spoil the figures, will be pleased to hear that the marking is actually molded onto the toy underneath the right arm and is un-painted, like the rest of the figure, but it does mean it is not as obtrusive as normal.
A quick reminder that if you want to buy the figures from Argos then its probably best to reserve or order them online as there is a very limited stock. Here are those very important links, remember that the Voyager Class figures are due in on Tuesday to most stores so order them now to avoid disappointment
