Nice but... uh, well, the "mystery army vehicle" is the previously reported original concept version repaint of the TF1 movie Wreckage.

a repainted Energon Superion replacing Slingshot with Airazor and marketed as a ROTF toy... why does Hasbro have to fail so badly?

Ah...the customary blurry pictures in vehicle mode. Not getting Superion...got enough of him. Wreckage, is a maybe...depends on the paint job.

Alternity is freaking awesome.

If by Universe you mean the Energon version of the mold, then the only difference is paint apps I think..

Im definatley picking this up if and when I see it.. I missed out on it completely last time round.

Isn't that just the 25th anniversary superion they released a couple of months ago in new packaging? Have they even bothered with a repaint?

No, I meant the one they released a few months ago. I paint scheme looks kinda similar, but I don't know it's it's 100% identical.

I'm gonna take a shot in the dark and guess Hasbro is doing this because although their won't be a -true- Bot combiner (triplebot Arcee and Prime/Jetfire don't count) in the movie, they might want one toywise. Not a bad idea, I guess.

Why is one named Airrazor instead of the proper fifth Aerialbot? Is one of them going to be female? Or did they just not get Slingshot as a name now and had to pull it out of their aft for a name?

Superion is an easy pass for me. I just don't care for the design. That Wreckage is a must though. Especially with his apparent importance in the second movie.(just from what i've seen and read thus far.) As for Alternity Prime beautiful alt. mode and I like the robot mode too so I suppose i'll get it. It'll look good with Alternity Megatron stomping him.

Well for superion, i think i get him, i had the G1's but dont know where they are or if i still have them since, now i'm back into collecting again. Now, according the bio or history, wreckage was one of the first or second transformers that arrived on earth and i think sector seven discovered, then destroyed him with some massive ray gun or a EMP cannon. this would be really stupid if they brought wreckage back now, unless the decepticons stumble across his mangled carcass and reactivated him. anyway, thats my input.. 8)

Motto: "The only good is knowledge, and the only evil is ignorance."
The Superion is a repackage, from Universe to the Movie for two reasons:

1) The Universe line will be put on hold for the duration of the new movie line
2) It's a recent release, there's no sense in having a product out for only one month or so. Might as well repackage :P

Trademarks, my dear boy. They're to blame for all the naming msery these days. I'm guessing "Slingshot" is not available for Hasbro to use (for a long time now, actually) so they used "Airazor" instead, in the same vein as "Windrazor".

O, and he's still a Target exclusive, so nya :P
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:

- Jelze Bunnycat =:3

Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him :()
- PotP Punch head
- TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one)
- CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad
- TR Twinferno & Grotusque
- Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1 (plus repro Victorion hands and feet?)

When I read movie superion I thought "movie" superion. Thank god its just the repaint. I wonder if Wreckage is actually going to be in the movie. I doubt it but that would be awesome.

Wow, A real Alternity product that isn't being used for promotional images or part of a toy show.

Does this mean that it will really be released soon?
