they have transformers (armada...boo!) and hamtaro toys in the uk, i got optimus and hamtaro for a measly quid each,
optimus prime is really chunky (especially since its armada prime) and hamtaro is sickinly cute.
i got a myclone megatron and optimus prime (trailer mode) last week, (see
http://www.action-hq.com/cgi-bin/act...oth000286.html) for info on new ones).
