Hey i was wondering if anyone knew if Argos was gonna be getting these back in stock or have they run their course over here now? A friend of mine in the states desperately wants one and i just went to argos's site and they are out of stock of course.

Is it worth it? I kinda like how it looks, but not sure about paying the regular Leader price for it, certainly not on my low income anyways.

Exactly, and the US version has inferior colors to the UK version, hence why he wants me to find him a UK version thats why i was asking in the first place.

Apparently the paint isnt as nice of a shade of blue or something. Doesnt the nightwatch prime have a sort of dark metallic blue color? The american one will only have sky, thundercracker-esque blue paint on it, hence why he'd rather the british version.

The only differences between the USA and UK version of Nightwatch Prime are the boxes.

You can see the AllSpark Power verison here: www.bigbadtoystore.com/images...e/HAS14130.jpg
Basically, some the small bits of color (gold, black, etc.) on the figure have been replaced with the "AllSpark Bright Blue" color like all figures from the subline will have." Not checked it out myself.

Oh yeah. I got the pics open up side by side and the differences are fairly obvious now.

Saw that, and the BBTS pre-order page.
Right now the ones shown are package samples, and there's neon blue paint apps been added to it, to keep with the Allspark gimick, but I'd say to wait until the actual release to compare the differences.

Ya know now that I've been looking at it more and more I think I want to get it myself too. Not a priority buy but if they still got any stocked by the time I get back to work, then I think I might get it. May think me weird if it had been given a new name as if it was a new character (such as Ultra Magnus for example) I would be more inclined to buy it because I prefer that to owning multiple versions of the same character (except for Bumblebee in this case as both forms his toys are based on were actually in the movie anyways).
