And another thing i was thinking when Hasbro promotes figures in the line don't they put it at on the smaller side of the box rather than on the front?

I saw Scamper during Hasbro's presentation on Saturday. Scamper is a black figure that transforms into a black car.

They did that already for the Animated line. I don't think it was super common, though.

They did a Blitzwing in Animated too, and we're getting him.

In the same page, when you look under "Transformers Fall of Cybertron", you get Arcee with a call number that is currently not tagged to anything. :grin:

Maybe..

It's definitely leaning toward Sandstorm. Scamper was a 6-wheeled car, not a helicopter. It's not supposed to be a promotion: all the characters running around on Metroplex are part of his package art.

I hope they do Skids. Then we would have all the first 3 years worth of cars.

I hope they do Hoist too, but since I at least have the legends version of Trailcutter and Hoist, I'm not that desperate.

Arcee would be nice too but I have the Delicate Warrior which is a good enough Generations Arcee for me.

The product codes for Springer and Blitzwing do match up based on the official images we received earlier. Highbrow and Banzitron also appear, but their product codes match their previously released Hunt for the Decepticon figures.

just to double check, but the Sandstorm entry doesn't match the TRU/GDO Scout class Sandstorm does it?

Good question.

There was a HtfD Sandstorm as a repaint of Legends Beachcomber as well.

I get the feeling they chose this altmode for Sandstorm since the helicopter of the G1 version would look too similar to Springer's own helicopter mode and they might have wanted to differentiate the two a little more.

37?

Oh so Hasbro actually showed Scamper. I thought they might be throwing a curve ball and change him from his original G1 alt mode to something different. Because all that they have coming up with at the Toyfair seems way to good to be true

While I do like the looks of that aircraft mode, I don't like it much as Sandstorm. It reminds me too much of Lugnut.

But hey, if Hasbro wants to give us a triple changing Sandstorm, who am I to argue. Just so long as it's a fresh mold.
