Are the scouts not getting released in NA?

Anyway, coolness level just shot up 50% now that I've seen the resemblance to his original G1 alt mode. . And the paint job is really great.

If I did get LB, I'd totally pose him like this in bot mode:

That would look so much better with Laserbeak colours.

It's sad that I was never able to obtain any version of this mold. Oh well, Lonely Mindwipe will stay Lonely

You need to get this scout mould. It's my favourite, and what I consider the best scout ever (at least the Skystalker version).

I'm not sure if there was official conformation of them being released in North America. However, what I do know is that they were at SDCC, and that they look really cool; I want them.

Okay, this had better be one of the TRU imports.

Great homage to his War Within likeness, and Laserbeak apparently DID have a robot mode in the Find Your Fate book 'Decepticon Poison' (the author also seemed to think Frenzy had a jet mode, leading to an amusing picture of him being shot down).

You know what other mold should be repainted into pre-Earth Laserbeak? Raindance, the Autobot cassette plane; he's a cassette, and that would look at least as much like War Within Laserbeak as that Targetmaster Kup repaint looked like Orion Pax. He'd be released with a purple and blue Grand Slam representing the War Within Autoscout, and they'd combine into powered-up Laserbeak, another possible interpretation of his unseen robot mode. I thought my hopes of actually seeing this happen died in the KOTOYS crackdown last year, but those new Shattered Glass cassettes just gave me hope that if Takara insists on doing infinite cassette repaints, this could just happen someday!

This is one of my favorite scout molds! I was lucky to get Skystalker and Sunspot so this is a total win. But I will look to try to score a better deal on one cuz it is a bit pricey indeed. I would love to get my hands on a Smokescreen with that awesome G2 homage, it's just an awesome mold...'nuff said!

There was, all will be at TRU except for Brawn. You may thank FE Bulkhead for that.

No love lost on the brawn head, but why are we getting a reheaded Cliffy then?

Don't know, don't care. The US Terrorcon Cliffjumper looks meh, the G1-headed one is interesting though.

I just found out that ToysRUs.ca opened preorders for these scouts, so I don't think anyone has to worry about being able to find Laserbeak.

[gothweaver]

looks like a great figure, but other than the color scheme it doesn't remind me of Laserbeak at all. If he has to be humanoid, at least give him a birdlike head.
