Revenge Of The Fallen>Power Bots
Revenge Of The Fallen>Fast Action Battlers

I also know there was a card game called Top Trumps released for both movies in the UK, not sure what section they would be put in?

Added everything but the cat for the card game. I'll let Ed decide where to put that, or if we even need to add it (we don't always add every last bedsheet and breakfast cereal--in principle we're mainly interested in proper toys). Thanks much!

OK, I have 2 more to add, but do not know what they are...

I got them from the person who sold me the Powerclix Red Alert, and he says they are both Japanese Microns...the car one looks vaguely familiar, but the bike one I have no clue about...here is a picture of the 2:

The bike apparently transforms into a gun of sorts which can be used by the Red Alert he sold me, but I have not figured out how to transforms it from bike to weapon (I don't think it has a robot mode but I could be wrong).

Anyone able to to shed some light on these Microns so I can figure out where they are from and what set they belong to?

That's only the beginning!

I don't think I do a very good job of making the feature visible to people, no one ever seems to know about it. I have vague plans for doing a new main page that will have a big panel marked "Identify!"--hopefully that'll help. Anyway, happy hunting...

If you're talking about the Micromasters Protectobots, Constructicons, etc., they weren't released in Europe under Universe like in the U.S., but under different lines.

The Protectobots, Constructicons, and Trainbots were released under the Energon line:

And Superion (Aerialbots) was released under the Cybertron line:

OK, I'm a tad confused...the instructions say about UK distribution, but says Universe on them?

Almost every semi-recent Western Transformers product has the following (or something very similar) on it, whether it's released in the U.S., the UK, or elsewhere (for example, this is taken from the package of a U.S. ROTF Dirge):

Manufacturer's representative in the United Kingdom is Hasbro UK Ltd., Caswell Way, Newport, NP19 4YH.  Tel. 00800 22427276.  Distributed in Australia by Hasbro Australia, Ltd., 570 Blaxland Road, Eastwood, NSW 2122, Australia, Tel. 1300 138 697.  Distributed in New Zealand by Hasbro NZ (a branch of Hasbro Australia Ltd.), 221 Albany Highway, Auckland, New Zealand.  Tel. 0508 828 200.

You'll find something similar to the above on practically everything, including Universe.  But since Universe never received an official European release, if you got the set from someone secondhand, they likely imported it from the U.S. (eBay) or bought it at a local import shop.
