Thanks to our fellow Seibertronian
muswp1, we find out that BigBadToyStore.com has posted a new case assortment for Hasbro's Alternators that might be of interest to many of you.
http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/toystan.asp?Queryid=pr774
This new assortment has Swerve, Prowl, Sunstreaker and Skids in the case. For people like muswp1 who hasn't seen a new Alternator since Shockbast and Wheeljack in May, this is a great and relatively inexpensive (about $23 each) way to catch up.
