Chinese auction site Taobao has up two auctions you will want to see, presumably for Q4 exclusives. Toys "R" Us packaged "super value" sets of Leader Class Megatron with Activator Starscream and Leader Class Bulkhead with Activator Bumblebee are coming... but when? Were I a betting man, I'd say October or November. I'd also bet on them being $39.99 or less. As such, I'd say if you haven't yet bought the leader figures, it might be worth your while to wait. (I were going to buy Megatron, but now I'm holding off. Free seems like a good price for Activators.)

Kmart Exclusive Mini-Cons: Packaged on eBay
Feast your eyes on this Kmart Exclusive Mini-Cons Pack coming this Fall. The packaging is really gorgeous, and this is the first Kmart exclusive in recent memory (or perhaps ever) from Hasbro to feature a sticker advertising the product as such. I typically don't swoon over a box, but wow. Yeah, this one's purty.
Toys "R" Us Canada Offering BOGO Animated Transformers
Over at The Allspark, user Cybersnark mentioned that his local Toys "R" Us is having a buy-one-get-one-free offer on animated Transformers toys. It does not appear such a promotion is currently running in the USA.

Transformers BinalTech Arcee Gallery
TF08.net posted a big gallery of Arcee in vehicle mode, complete with a shot of the head. Which, if you didn't know, confirms she's just a white Decepticharge repaint. Still, kinda neat.
Unicron Returns to Transformers Universe
Fans of the giant planet eating robot, rejoice! Unicron is apparently coming back for a third repackaging, although some claim the toy showing up in the box on eBay isn't final. (We think it is.) Apparently a Toys "R" Us exclusive, this beast is probably going to appear some time this Fall. Want to know and see more? See the auction on eBay, or see the report on TFW2005.

McDonalds McAnimated McTransformers McWebsite
While I heard they would be available on Saturday, McDonalds posted this web site showing the six Animated toys and their transformations. Releases include Megatron, Lugnut, Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Starscream, and Ratchet. The toys include a coupon for $5 off a $19.99 purchase on the full-sized Hasbro toys, which would make buying a Happy Meal and throwing away the food a worthwhile purchase.
