If it is PCC garbage, what does that have to do with United?

You pre-orderd them without knowing what they are ?

We can't even tell what these are. The "Prime" in their names is vague and ambiguous at best; especially with them being some kind of "Prime Mode", as they say.

Id like to be optimistic, but based on the last waves of united, we got a bunch of 5-7 year old figures repainted.

One could well ask what an Energon Sharkticon repaint and a rehash of a relatively lame not-a-planet Unicron mold have to do with United. The answer may be simply: "United" is a catch-all line; hence the name. Or maybe it's just "everything but movie".

Whatever the rationale, it's looking increasingly like TakaraTomy have run out of useful ammunition for this line. I'd like for the folks predicting a PCC rehash to be wrong. But they're probably right.

Good point...those were utter crap for the most part, too.
