Toyfair UK Info
Tomorrow (26/01/06) is the start of Toyfair UK and already there is plenty of news to report. Prowlus2 of The Allspark is reporting that there is going to be an Alternator Rumble who IS a Honda Civic Alternator, confirming what was reported earlier. There is also an image of the Star Wars Transformers Millenium Falcon. It is not confirmed if these will hit the UK, but we can hope.

News from Toy Fair 2003 in ExCel – London
This is just a quick note to keep you abreast of things; we’ll have a full feature article up on the site as soon as the photos are developed.
I popped down to the UK Toy Fair in ExCel (London) today to see what Transformers we can expect to see in our shores this year. I spoke to Hasbro about Armada and G1 reissues and the news is surprisingly bright. They had reissues of Optimus Prime, Starscream, Ultra Magnus and Hot Rod, all of which we can expect to see in the UK at some point before Christmas.
Most of their Transformers display was centred around Armada though. The Armada Optimus Prime looks superb, and actually transforms himself. Now that’s lazy.
I spoke to CardsInc about the Generation One sticker album, and that will be out this year in all good newsagents around March/April time.
There are more surprises to come, and loads of great photos so stay tuned. The Toy Fair is now moving on to Germany, and then to New York so our American cousins can catch up on what we’ve already experienced.
Ha!
