I too can confirm this – I saw Overload, the Air Military and Emergency Teams last November, and have seen them fairly regularly since. PL Jetfire, I saw in Woolworths in January, and Predacon and Powerlinx Red Alert in Belfast’s Toys R Us in February. Saw both of those two in my Smyths (Irish toy store chain) just a month ago, too, and Hoist, Rhinox and Terrorsaur have appeared there within the last two weeks. There were some very sparse sightings of Wheeljack in Argos last year, too, though I never saw one myself.

More word on Armada in the UK
Mathew Parkes emailed us about Protoform X’s news story concerning new Transformer in the UK
Indeed Alex is quite correct the figures he has mentioned are already here and have been for a while, well since Christmas anyway.
I have come across Powerlinx Red Alert, Jetfire, Optimus Prime and also Terrosaur, Rhinox and Predacon in The Entertainer both Wolverhampton and Birmingham Bull Ring stores and Powerlinx Red Alert in Woolworths across the West Midlands.
Overload I got for Christmas it was purchased from Woolworths Wolverhampton alongside Tidalwave

UK to actually get MORE Armada?!
Hasbro.co.uk’s online store has been updated with some new entries. This must mean that the figures are avaliable in the UK…somewhere. The figures are the Air Military Team, Rhinox, Terrorsaur, Hoist, Powerlinx Red Alert and Powerlinx Optimus Prime. We might see Wheeljack and the other later figures like Overload before the next millenium at this rate…
Orion Pax Story and Profile
e-Hobby have provided the English story and profile of Orion Pax
Story
This product is a recreation of the robot youth Orion Pax, who appears in the original series episode “War Dawn” as the younger form of Autobot Supreme Commander Optimus Prime. He transforms from retro-futuristic pickup to robot mode and comes in a three-robot set with an auxiliary droid module and his friend and fellow freight handler, Dion.Profile
A laborer robot who enjoyed peace and prosperity in an era known as Cybertron’s Golden Age, some nine million years ago. He and his good friend Dion, who also transformed into a transport vehicle, conducted delivery work at the energon storehouses. His body was composed of two autonomous units and could divide into the main module, Orion, and the industrial droid Barrelroller, who could transform into an electromagnetic lift handle. Later, he would be severely injured in an attack by Megatron, but at the hands of Alpha Trion, who recognized in Orion an uncommonly strong spirit and ability to get things done, he would be reborn as the first of Cybertron’s new defenders, Optimus Prime.Thanks to http://www.transformertoys.co.uk for the news.

The final bit of information concerns prices that we as customers may be paying due to new restrictions
next year Hasbro are not offering deluxe Transformers as an FOB line (means bigger dealers and retailers cannot buy from Hasbro China). This also means larger shops won’t offer as many 3 for 2 etc as price is almost twice as much.
Final FABs Found in UK
Dinotron of TFW2005 has picked up the final wave of fast Action Battlers in The Entertainer in Southampton. The items found were Plasma Punch Bumblebee and Blade Shield Barricade.
