That said, we still don't know if Battle Ops Bumblebee is a HFTD figure or not since in package versions have been seen both with and without the HFTD sticker. At this point, it's probably safer to assume he's indeed a HFTD figure since it's easier to omit a sticker by accident than to put on one that shouldn't be there. What's more, that sticker seems to have been sized especially for that big box.

I'm trying to say that "HftD" is not the name of the entire toyline, but a portion of it.


....wow. No one said it was the entire toyline. My entire post was how it was the name of a subline and that TransFormers the brand, is the name of the toyline.

And the stickers say HFTD (yes, I know it's an online gimmick), but it's widely accepted as the HTFD portion of the toyline.

Seriously, I'm not even sure why this is so important. If you want to call it TransFormers: I Pay Too Much F**kin' Money, go ahead.

TransFormers: Brand.
Subline(s): Hunt For The Decepticons (though not officially labeled, but widely accepted...) in yellow packaging.

Generations in red packaging.

Powercore Combiners in blue packaging.

I really don't understand why this is so important, and what's so hard to figure out.

I agree. Just because a sticker isn't on the box, doesn't change which line it's supposed to be in. If he was meant to be a Generations toy, he'd have been in red packaging.

That is what I tend to call just about every line. :D

Actually, I'm willing to slightly differ on this (and derail the thread even further). From my observations there are only two lines, max: Transformers proper and Transformers: Generations. I'm saying this because Transformers: Generations has the "Generations" part incorporated into its logo, whereas the other lines don't. I'll double check the galleries again in a bit, but here's my view in the mean time:

* Transformers
- Hunt for the Decepticons
- Power Core Combiners
* Transformers: Generations

btw Generations will occupy only the Deluxe Class range.

EDIT: found them:

Transformers Generations:

Hunt for the Decepticons:
