They still had some Energon gestallt leaders in deluxe universe packaging and the same 4-packs of insect-bots and double-combiner aircraft that Big Lots carries alongside them; all gone now, but this was just a couple months ago. They still have those Laser Cycle and Cyberjet KOs in RM Victory Saber packaging though.
But even those 3 Cybertron scouts in 1 box seemed a bit rich for a dollar store, so this set likely won't end up there. Still, in 1999 I found Machine Wars Optimus Prime in a 'SAV-A-LOT FOOD' for $10.00, so stranger things have happened. The Universe label is basically a license for legit TFs to turn up ANYWHERE, even the realm of KOs, so everyone keep your eyes peeled!
I'll go on record as saying I actually like Hot Rod's stab at a 'toon look, but a more Henkei-esque Cyclonus is reason enough to hunt this down! The real H-Cyc has gotten even pricier than SG Cyclonus or Credit-Card Strafe!
(Off topic, but to see Henkei Strafe get animated, search for "Transformers Chile" on Youtube to see him help Megatron attack Op's shipment of TF tennis shoes - seriously!)

Where did you pre-order?
I am thinking this will not be released in the US, as Cyclonus' gun is chrome and Hasbro tends not to do that.

It's been stated a lot of times that it will have an American release. Again, please be either Wal-Mart or Toys "R" Us.......

Leave it to Dead Metal to have the word 'Pronz' in his signature.

Yeah it is weird about the box art... it's also the wrong way around (or the position of the toys in the box is wrong...)
The protector armour is actually a good reason to buy this! Oh no... now I HAVE to buy it!
How awesome does the Protector armour look!?
Damn thats cool...
If the set came with the armour... Why don't Hasbro do this? It's surely not THAT expensive to do what FansProject are doing? Or just license the thing from them already!
Anyone know if any of the third party companies have done this before? Tried to make thier products officially licensed by Hasbro? Just curious...

The protector armour will be pointless once Takara reveals MP Rodimus.
