I've already gone through the effort of acquiring the official launchers...

Pre-ordered a Bluestreak via Robot Kingdom, which comes with the coin & launcher, and bought a Prowl w/ coin & launcher off eBay (going to have to sell the Prowl, since I have one already, but hopefully it will cover most of the cost).

At any rate, Prowl doesn't really use the launchers in the cartoon, does he? I'm actually quite happy with the ones he comes with. I'll be using the Amazon JP launchers with Bluestreak, which will give all 3 Datsuns some additional distinguishing features.

I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I am that which is, which was, and is yet to come.

And you will know my name is MEGATRON when I lay my vengeance upon you!

Hmmm... Yesss... I'll spend a buttload on cartoon accurate toys only to spend more on something that never appeared in the show...

That makes sense




















Sorry, couldn't stop myself They are a pass for me, but I do understand why some would want em.

Hehe, agreed. I have no need of them and I won't be buying them nor any other cannon upgrades for Prowl. He's spot on to the show as is and that's perfect for me .

Agreed. Despite having bought the launchers, I think Prowl is awesome as-is.

Can't wait for official shots of 'Bee & Wheeljack.
