Damn it, they get the cheap movie chess set right and screw up the expensive G1 set.

Wow. Was that leader class Brawl? Nice one.

Great photo's, it's lovely to see 'em all together.

It's really too bad than none of this is surprising thanks to all of these toys already showing up on eBay. No 'wow' factor for me, anyway.

Also a little disappointed that there are no displays of WW Prowl, WW Grimlock or WW Skywarp.

...err...it was confirmed (I believe during the Hasbro tour) that is indeed a Wal-Mart exclusive.

Listening to TFW again, are we?

Is that a titanium Soundblaster I see? (next to the black Rodimus Prime repaint)

Leader Brawl looks good, I'm wondering why the missle launchers on the back and the cannon's muzzle brake are clear though... I've two theories;

1) that's an early prototype and those clear bits are rubber(as a safety thing on the end of a long points cannon barrel) and will be replaced by coloured rubber in the final production version

2) they are there for the toy's light & sound FX, they light up and a gun sound is made(like how leader prime has the headlights and horn)

Why isn't Deluxe Dreadwing in there? he's the only lense head drone I want... surprized to see Payload is a drone too - he looks rubbish as does Dropkick(worst TF name in years).

Yeah, I want '08 BB & leader Brawl too but how do you know he'll have a desert camo repaint? :???:

(snifs) what about deluxe prime

Sat Jun 30, 2007 5:58 am

Awesome new figs. I really dig Payload. is he a Destron?

News Credits: 49 · Sat Jun 30, 2007 7:25 am

Nothing new than? The only thing non-movie/deformed is the Masterpiece Starscream and some already released Titaniums - except TITANIUM PRIMAL PRIME! Okay, that's cool. So out of that cabinet, 2 thing to buy. Sad. I hope this movie crap dies quickly and they can move on.

Tough decision now about Barricade - the original has an awesome looking car mode but the repaint is much more interesting in bot mode, and such a similar colour scheme to dropkick that I think I might get that one and consider them brothers.

Sat Jun 30, 2007 8:05 am

Awesome reconnaissance guys

Wasn't that Scout Arcee figure BLUE on Hasbro's website? :-?

Well, after seeing the repainted Jazz again, I now have to revise my list of "Movie figures I'll buy":

-Mean Time.

Really, no joke. These movie figures are choking the life out of my interest for Transformers, they really are.
But hey, I need a watch...and one that transforms brings me back to the days of Kronoform.

Oddly the movie Arcee repaint of the Energon Arcee is blue. The movie Elita One repaint of Energon Arcee is pink! Yes, they made Elita One out of Energon Arcee! When will the madness end?

When a fire happens at the production plants in China, forever destroying all these AWFUL figure molds, leaving them with the need to sculpt them anew?

Recon Barricade looks all kinds of awesome, looks like I'm breaking my only movie appearance characters rule again. And 6in. Titanium Primal Prime, HELLS YEAH! :DANCE:

How many Target repaints should we be expecting?

And is that an Energon StarScream with updated rockets?

Also, is that a picture of an Ultimate Prime, next to Ultimate BumbleBee?

Eitherway, best display case in some time!
