These one with the hair is the ugliest one yet.

And for the record, I love star Wars. Just dont like the concept.

I wonder if they'll ever slide back into the OT and do like a B-wing and A-wing

I was a Star Wars fan long before I was a Transformers fan and have a deep love of both franchises, but they just don't combine into anything I'd ever want. This is not a chocolate and peanut butter situation... more like honey mustard and snickers.

On the bright side, there have been some really fantastic customs birthed from SW molds.

I'm in the same boat, love both franchises but hate the crossover line. Great concept, terrible execution. Transformers characters that have Star Wars vehicle alt modes would have been great. Star Wars vehicles that transform into mecha versions of their pilots terrible.

I actually want that Darth Maul. I missed out on him the first go round and he's never been repacked as far as I know until now (he may be the only one other than wheel-bike Grievous to have previously never been repacked/retooled/repainted).

starwars needs to stay away from transformers.

They really need to stop making these.

Seriously. Or at least not make the bot forms not... disgusting?

Earlier this week, we reported that the new Star Wars Transformers Class I Wave 3 toys were listed on HasbroToyShop.com. Earlier today, I found all 3 figures at the Walmart in Rolling Meadows, IL. The packaging for this 6 month old class size has already received a face lift. Of particular interest to Transformers fans is the use of a different Transformers logo (which is more similar to the one used for Transformers Prime), and the absence of the "Crossovers" subtitle. You can view larger versions of these images by clicking on the images below. For those of you who use the Seibertron.com toy sightings section, these figures will be added to the toy sightings section later today.

The Class I Wave 3 remolds include the following figures:

The 3rd wave hasn't been out. This is for the new figures.

Yeah so I'm lying and didn't buy the Obiwan and Anakin for my friend for Christmas, and certainly haven't seen them turning up in the Entertainer for the last two weeks.

Shesh.

I'm not accusing you of lying, just was assuming that you were mixing these up with the Anakin and Obi-Wan where they are the other toy from the first wave (they swapped characters for this wave). No one has reported these until now. If you see new products like that in the future, we'd really appreciate it if you could email us to let us know. Pictures are even better!

Here's the link where you can submit news in the future: http://www.seibertron.com/contact/index ... bject=news

Can anyone else confirm that these are showing up in the UK? Does anyone have pics of them on the shelves or a receipt or anything to confirm that it's wave 3 and not wave 1?

The other reason I'm questioning this is because these were only recently announced in the past couple of weeks. Wave 1 came out in September, Wave 2 in November, followed by Wave 3 in January ... a two month cycle.

Can you confirm that you didn't buy the ones in the picture below?

I couldn't find wave 3 on Amazon.co.uk to confirm that these are in the UK. I found wave 1 and wave 2, but not wave 3.

Not on Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_nos ... akin&ajr=0

Argos website is temporarily down for their new catalog, eBay UK doesn't have any either.

Damn dude ... you did find them last month! I still can't get over that the UK is getting TFs first before the US. That still hasn't sunk in yet. Thanks for sharing the pic with us.

Please keep us informed if you find other new Transformers toys. Tomorrow / today (Saturday) should be a big day for all of you UK folks at your Argos stores. Have fun and buy lots of new Transformers toys!

Tweeted you some other SW cross over stuff, it was all released the same time late Nov early Dec time in a mixed case assortment.

It has some of the new stuff(the darth mauls etc) and the old case wave. No combiners yet.

Again its very late, I apologise if i was wrong or rude at all, just extremely tired and cant sleep.

I would maybe buy Darth Vader and Grievous since they kinda look good, but when I grabbed them today I saw the price on them for the first time €17.99?!
The f**k are they smoking, I mean Human Alliance basics are cheaper than that, seriously, 18 eggs for something that small and crappy? Especially considering the track record this line has.
