We just saw this news story from WhatDVD.Net,
this is great news for UK fans.

So the idea of having diferent region codings was to stop different territories
buying and importing DVDs before they were released in that country eh? Well
we Brits have long since been importing our DVDs and enjoying them while they’re
still in cinemas over here, and now Amazon.co.uk have jumped on the band-wagon.
It seems they’ve taken the policy of ‘well, everyone else is selling them so
why not us?. Now you can order DVDs like Higlander
Season 2, Finding
Nemo and Transformers
Season 3 from Amazon.co.uk.

There is still the risk of the import tax and customs charge to contend with,
but we’ve ran those risks for years!

Film
and DVD review website WhatDVD
have reviewed the Transformers Season 2 part 1 DVD from Metrodome. Check out
what they thought of it here

The DVD is released on Monday 17th November throughout the UK and can be bought
from Amazon
or from Blackstar.

The latest newsletter from BigBadToyStore features some info about the Hasbro
Masterpiece Optimus Prime.

Hi,

Here is a quick update from http://www.bigbadtoystore.com
about some great new arrivals and pre-orders.

HASBRO 20TH ANNIVERSARY PRIME We have listed a new pre-order for
the domestic version of 20th Anniversary Prime. Takara’s version arrives in
December and Hasbro’s version is scheduled to arrive in February. The Hasbro
version is available for $74.99 and will likely be somewhat modified for the
US market’s safety rules. We do not have any specifics on what the differences
in the US and Japanese figures will be. Don’t miss out on the Hasbro Alternators
figures – pre-orders available for those as well.

VINTAGE ITEMS More GI Joe, Masters of the Universe, Beast Wars, G1
and many other items have been listed.

Thanks for your interest in www.bigbadtoystore.com
and be sure to check out the new items.

We’ve
gathered some more screenshots from Atari’s Transformers
Armada on PS2. Come take a look, come on… this
way.

BigBadToyStore
sent us this update, containing the following Transformers information.

SMALLEST TRANSFORMERS A great new item from Takara – tiny
versions of your favorite transformers including Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, Soundwave,
Sideswipe, Starscream and more! Boxes of 12 figures for $54.99 – master case
of 48 available for $209.99. The Master case guarantees you’ll receive all the
chase figures Skywarp, Cliffjumper, Prime’s Trailer.

MICROMASTER SIXWING AND SIXTRAIN Great new micromaster re-issues
from Takara. Each box of 12 comes with 2 sets of figures – there may be a few
individual repainted chase figures per box (not enough to make the full chase
set however – multiple boxes & some luck are needed to make that) Sixwing was
not widely available in the first production run early in 2003 and this is our
only shipment of Sixtrain so don’t miss out on these great figures.

US & JAPANESE ARMADA The show accurate Japanese Tidal Wave
figure has just arrived and the US versions of Maxcons Skywarp and Overload
are now in stock. Also in stock are more new Japanese sets Thrust, Blurr, Black
Air Military Minicons, Space Minicons, Optimus Prime and More.

Thanks for your interest in www.bigbadtoystore.com
and be sure to check out the new items.

Transformer Armada
Prelude to Energon WILL be coming out for PlayStation 2 in
the UK. Our sources have revealed that it’s appeared on UK release schedules
and we should have a UK pre-order link for you very shortly. It’d due for USA
release before Christmas, but we don’t as of yet know the UK release date.
