TFC Toys have teased on their Weibo account about an upcoming addition to their Power Core Combiner Iron Army releases. The first two sets of Iron Army releases form limbs for Hasbro's own officially released Power Core Combiners toys; this tease suggests that a fifth Iron Army release is planned to form a torso robot for the set. You can check out the tease image attached to this news story.

The Transformers Collectors Club has released an additional image of one of their subscription service figures. The picture shows Circuit, the Hunt for the Decepticons Axor redeco, next to Generation 1 Circuit, the Generation 1 Axer redeco. The comparison shows how nicely the two decos are matched with each other, homaging the wacky and loud deco of the original toy in this new version.

Along with Slipstream, Scourge, Breakdown, Jackpot and Ultra Mammoth, Circuit is one of the Transformers Collectors Club Subscription Service figures. Click here to find out more and to get in on the ground floor with this cool series of Transformers toys.

Here's an interesting new sighting for you. Popping up now in Toys R Us stores is our first store exclusive Kre-O Transformers set. This set takes the mammoth Devastator set - the four robots combining into a single giant - and then bundles in a special, exclusive to this set Kre-O Ironhide. Kre-O Ironhide takes a few cues from his Transformers Prime design and looks very sharp. This set also includes the yellow Generation 2 Devastator Kreon that we first found out about last week. It's out in Toys R Us right now, priced at $94.99, and the first sightings are in the North Riverside Il TRU.

For our latest gallery update, we're sharing with you a selection of galleries of the Japanese Transformers Prime Arms Micron series. The Arms Micron toys are pretty awesome variations on what we see in the US for the toy line - in place of the accessories of the US releases, you get model kits to assemble into little Targetmaster style partner "Arms Micron" figures, who can attach to the larger robots in a variety of ways, thanks to additional hardpoints added to the toys. It's an interesting (and probably totally unintentional) homage to the Transformers Armada series, which is 10 years old this year!

On to the galleries, we've got a motley crew of toys to share pictures of with you, courtesy of 2005 Boards Photo Staff member SydneyY and also a pair from Sol Fury! Check them out by opening the links below - we've got pictures of the Japanese market exclusive Skywarp, the Arms Micron versions of Optimus Prime, Ratchet and the Vehicon, plus the First Edition series remolds that were released for the Arms Micron line, Terrorcon Cliffjumper and Megatron

The Transformers Facebook page has updated with a commentary on the newly released More than Meets the Eye Issue 8! As always this takes the first few pages of the issue and gives us a bit of creative insight from the team of James Roberts, Alex Milne and Josh Burcham into things that are going on, including what will probably come as no surprise to anyone, the movie the Autobots on the Lost Light are watching will have significance later. James also mentions in the commentary that Skids will be the backbone in the ongoing overarching plotline, at least through the first overall arc.

2005 Boards member Guard Convoy has sent us news of a new variant to the assortment of Legends Class toys currently available in Dollar General stores. The Dollar General Optimus Prime (pictured) and Starscream are now featuring the remolding and additional weapons from their Asia Exclusive or GDO Legends counterparts. In other words, start checking out your Dollar Generals if you would like Optimus Prime with a sweet red version of Motorbreath's sword and Starscream with Nul-Rays which he can mount beneath his wings.

No variants are being reported on the Bumblebee or the Megatron in the same case assortment, possibly because their molds were not altered to be issued as a part of the GDO Legends assortment.
