Why does Hasbro have to put a stupid gimmick into every single toyline they make? Why can't we just have a straight-up no-gimmick toyline?

Probably because the toys are geared for kids and kids like that sort of stuff.

completely agree with prowl.. i mean.. isn't the transformation the gimmick.. there's no need for gimmicks.

have a transforming weapon.. not a weapon where you have to push a button for something to happen. it's a little ridiculous. focus more on the actual figure than the gimmick.

i have a good compromise.. give ALL the bumblebees a gimmick.. and leave the rest of them alone.

As long as Hasbro does not release the complete First Editions so that the BBTS pre-orders can be filled they can keep those glowing-simple-gimmick-crap RID toys all they want.

Even if they show up in stores in germany, maybe after the ToyFair, i will not buy any of them.

Makes me sick what Hasbro is calling distribution lately. Glad that at least Takara answered with all the First Edition Toys so collectors can get them all. I know i did. But i wanted alle the Hasbro versions as well.

Thanks Hasbro, and keep the Prime RID toys

Transforming robots are a gimmick in itself. I thought we were done with Mech Tech >_>

Megatron is kick ass bro

I think Mech Tech is a permanent gimmick. I like it though, because they're interchangable and you don''t have to worry too much about losing them. And they work with just about every other series because the pegs fit with ANY TF.

I saw RID Prime Bumblebee at the Toys"R"Us in Tukwila Washington this afternoon, for $15, but the sightings form didn't have the right options. As soon as the mods approve my store info, I'll add him.
