Site sponsor Robotkingdom has revealed the case breakdowns and opened pre-orders for sealed cases of Hasbo Asia's exclusive GDO Voyagers and GDO Deluxes. These are scheduled to arrive in mid-July.

Deluxe:
2 x SPRINGER
2 x SWERVE
3 x CLIFFJUMPER
1 x WHEELIE

Voyager:
1 x POWER DIVE
1 x HOTSPOT
1 x BRAWN
1 x MEGATRON

i want that hotspot and megatron.

Damn it! Voyagers are sold out already?! WTF?

Cmon Kapow, where are those UK preorders?

I wouldn't mind that Powerdive it's the only mold i don't have + the black red & purple look mint together.

I'd take springer also .

Hot Spot is the only one that I really want. I might take a Brawn too, since I don't have the FE Bulkhead mold.

I ordered a case of the Deluxes. I figure I won't have much trouble selling the extras on eBay. Hopefully that income will pay for the import/shipping costs.

While I was at it, I ordered the Arms Micron Vehicon and Jet Vehicon.

Dangit. I was hoping they'd be sold separately. I want to army-build the wheelie and get only a couple of the other molds.

Come on BBTS, don't fail me now.

Does ayone else think that Cliffjumper looks a bit... stupid?

If you want a buyer for the extra Springer and Swerve hit me up.

Wheelie and HotSpot please.

EDIT: just checked on availability of a deluxe case..........SOLD OUT..

i wanted a wheelie dammit.

He's an... acquired taste, I admit. I'll have to think really carefully about him. Just release at least Springer, Swerve, Megatron and Hot Spot, and you got a happy girl

Nope. And it's the First Edition mold, which is why I want it. I don't think I'll have much trouble selling the extras on eBay.

I'll go with JelZe's "acquired taste", then.

Wow..... that is a crappy Cliffjumper...

Yeah yeah yeah its FE mold,but a G1ish head?Haha NO

No no no, not crappy: acquired taste.

Looks like hasbro really loves using the RTS Jazz as a repaint mold, apparently wheelie is a repaint of that mold. and brawn does not look good in a bulkhead mold.

But i'd gladly pick up Springer, he's looking good.

I don't understand why these are Hasbro Asia exclusives. Doesn't make much sense that this many figures will be limited to one region.

By that same logic, any store-exclusive should also not exist.

It's a marketing device!

I'll likely be getting most if not all of these. Come on BBTS, give me some preorders !

Hot Spot looks okay, but only okay, and he's the best of the Voyagers. The Deluxes all look relatively decent. Would like to see better pics of Springer. And I agree that the Cliffjumper head on the Other Cliffjumper body does look a bit strange, but not so much that I'd not get it. I want FE Cliff to be my Big Red (even though he's tiny) so will probably end up finding a different head that fits, and if I'm going to have a spare head, I'd rather WFC Cliff than Prime Cliff.

WTF does GDO stand for? Garage Door Opener?

I know! Hasbro's gone out of its way to kiss some Asian market hyne recently. More to the point-aren't Asian stores pegs crammed full of shelfwarmers too, or is it just the US and Europe? Are the Asian retailers just shovelling the surplus Bees and DOTM stuff into a great big furnace and calling Hasbro saying "Send more product! Your'e not sending us enough product!" ? WTF?

Yeah, why should this "Asia" place get any exclusives? Everyone knows the Western hemisphere is the BESTern hemisphere and we're entitled to ALL THE THINGS.

I contacted BBTS to see if they were going to get these, and all they could tell me was they're "looking into it"
