As well as the rest of the Wave 5 deluxes found here-

Swindles color seems to be a little more olive than in the last posted pics. Enjoy!

[*Soundwave*]

Will get these, along with Jetfire and Jetstorm.

Are these set to come out this year?

why is 'bee in that assortment?
Swindle = win

Swindle looks really nice. He reminds me a lot of his G1 namesake.

[shortround]

Now this is what the animated line is supposed to look like not jetfire and jetstorm.

[Sowndwave76]

As of right now,
Swindle, Swoop, and Leader U.M. are the only Animated figures I'm looking to add to my collection of that line.
And I may even go with the Road Buster version of Magnus since I'm getting the City Commander set.

Depending on what we get for Classics in '09, I may go back and pick up a few others, but not planning on it.

[Malikon]

You might not want to overlook Voyager Prime. If you like Primes he's a really great mold. Pics don't really do it justice like when you're holding it. He's great, big and solid.

[WolfDawg]

Swindle looks just as good as the stock photos depicted. A bit more Olive, as the TC said, but still awesome. Definitely getting him. However, Blurr looks better than he did in the stock photos. Guess I'll have to see him up close.

I was just about to post this EE update, as I believe this:

http://www.entertainmentearth.com/prodi ... =HT83665DD

represents the first pic of a correctly transformed Universe Cheetor and Nightstick in robot mode, that I have seen.

[Doubledealer93]

i might get blazing lock down. but blurr and swindle are a must get

I was thinking the same thing. Shouldn't it be Elite Guard BB, or some other variation? Given how many BBs I see warming the shelves everywhere, I don't know why they think there's enough demand for that mold to reissue it in Wave 5. Unless they just want to make sure it's on shelves for the holidays.

And, yes, Swindle = win.

Swindle and Blurr are a nice way to get the bad taste of the Jetfire/Jetstorm Retard Twins out of my mouth.

[Dead Metal]

Nice, I really dig Lockdown and Swindle!

On a side note, the Cyclonus we saw earlier were people said it was just a unfinished test shot, well it looks like it really is the finished product!

[Tigertrack]

Entertainment Earth has new images of Universe deluxe Wave 4, and Animated deluxe wave 5 on the pre-order pages on their website.

Of note with these sets, Animated Swindle looks a little differently colored than we had previously seen before, with the bright yellow replaced with the duller tan/yellow, and the 25th Cheetor with the 25th/Universe set looks to be transformed correctly.

You can click on either link above to view the pre-orders of the figure sets.

[JaZzTaStIc]

i prefer swindle in this darker colour, goes better with the mold i'll say.

blur...still not sure on him

and still a big NO on that cheetor, even with his arms in right hes still beaten by the beast wars version.

[Hard Hacker]

They've remoulded Lockdown's hands! I like.

[Overcracker]

Ooh very cool. God to see Cheetor correctly transformed.

Definitely liking Blurr and Swindle.

[DMSL]

Cheetor: pass.
Hound: I will get the Henkei version more accurate paintjob and hopefully also a handgun and weapons for Ravage.
Cyclonus: AWESOME!
Starscream: Boring paintjob looks horrible.
Bumblebee: Have him pass on this one.
Blurr: Looks freaking awesome i'm getting him for sure.
Swindle: Kickass vehicle mode, should have been a Voyager though. Head is a bit too blocky.
Lockdown: Have the first don't need another.

[RiddlerJ]

Not to be a party pooper byt cyclonus just isn't doing it for me. His jet mode is too bulbus and bulky not like the sleek jet we're used to seeing him as.

Oh well, I guess that's the trade off for trying to fix the old problems with his robot mode, even thouse his legs are still too thin.

On the other hand, I'm really diggin' the more three dimensional Ravage. I may grab Hound just for him.

[Solrac333]

Hound and Starscream I will buy! I will also get Cyclonus. He even has a little Targetmaster.

[zero-kaiser]

Hound, Cheetor and Cyclonus... definatley.. i liked Cheetor as soon as i saw him.. admittedly after id mentally transformed him correctly.. this is pretty much how i imagined him

Hound and Cyclonus i think are made of epic win.. im half tempted to hang on for their respective henkei versions.. but we'll see

-sigh- its going to be an expensive year indeed...

[Megatron Wolf]

Cant wait. Blurr looks great and the universe figures are sick. Well there goes the rest of my money.

[ScottyP]

As much as the Ambiguously Gay Jet Duo disappointed me yesterday, these two waves of deluxes make up for that tragedy in spades.

I think the Hound/Cheetor/Cyclonus/Cartoon Starscream Universe wave has to be the best wave of Deluxes to ever come out, ever. Will buy all of them instantly when I see them. :drool:

[Mirage22]

Holy crap! Swindle, Blurr, Starscream, Cyclonus, and Hound look fickin' sweet! I can't wait for Christmas now. But what's with Bumblebee keep being shown with the Wave 5 Animated guys? Is it cause Hasbro fixed the stinger thing cause by those picutes, they didn't. Or is is it cause they think Bumblbee is so popular, but the thing is, he's not.

[Agent 007]

cheetor looks much better. I'll prolly get blurr, Cyclonus, and Hound.

[i_amtrunks]

Blurr and Swindle look great, Blurr in particular has caught my attention.
