[Megatron Wolf]

3 more reasons to skip this line, ill stick with wasting my money on video games and stuff on ebay. I just picked up 3 older but 100% complete transformers for less than it would cost for one prime deluxe. My collection still grows but hasblow gets none of my money.

I bet with some fiddling I can make Arachnid's spider mode with that cockpit.

I am not to pleased with this waves selection. Don't get me wrong, I like the characters Dead End and Arachnid, but Arachnid's mould leaves a lot to be desired. As for Dead End, a little less crazy color combo and I would buy him. He is a great mould, but the colors.......Negative ghost rider. The pattern is full..

I am waiting for Voyager Breakdown, Dreadwing, Ultra Magnus, Nemesis Prime.

As for the Deluxes I will pass on this wave.

Airachnid looks okay but I still hope we get a Voyager. She deserves much better. Don't care about Dead End but his colors really work. That Bumblebee I'm actually surprised by. I won't be getting it but the deco really looks nice. I kinda wish he was that interesting looking in the show. Not a bad wave.

If you guys think Airachnid got the short end of the stick in her toy form, it gets worse for her Japanese portrayal.

n the Japanese dub of Prime, Airachnid's personality is completely different from her US interpretation. In the dub, she is a bubbly, giggling, high-strung chatterbox that is obsessed with collecting handsome boys as trophies. Played up as something of a female Pepe Le Pew, she constantly swoons over Jack, calling him her "hunk", her "darling", her "cutie Jack-chan" and various other lovey-dovey remarks as she amorously pursues him (even going so far as to sing love songs to him, mid-chase). While her sadistic qualities remain, she's played more like a creepy stalker girl than a vicious monster.

She's Yandere?

Is TFP completely reanimated in Japan? Or just redubbed?

Redubbed.

Airachnid is way too small. Nice chopper, but the robot mode is pathetic.

I snagged Airachnid today at Target. Yes, the figure kind of sucks. But it is Airachnid; and probably the only one we're going to get. I'll be skipping the rest of this wave, though. Dead End and Yet Another Bumblebee aren't bad repaints; but they're not especially compelling, either.

Target's joined TRU in gouging on these figures. New price for Deluxes is $14.99; $24.99 for Voyagers. Ouch. If Airachnid weren't just one per case, I'd have waited to find her at Walmart.

(At this rate, Walmart's prices may be going up, too.)
