Is there a picture of it? I didn't see one there.

Sorry guys, but it's probably Sergeant Kup, a straight green repaint of the Deluxe Ironhide mold.

Yeah, it's Kup, Ironhide's not in wave 5.

Wait. So Kup is the 1st issue of the Ironhide mold, and Ironhide is the repaint? Might be a good marketing gimmick, since everyone would buy Kup for the new mold, then buy Ironhide again since it's Ironhide. If Ironhide came 1st, half the people who owned Ironhide would pass of the Kup repaint. :lol:

Ironhide is already out. Not in huge numbers but I've already bought one, had to take it back and found another. He is out with (Cyberverse CDR) Dreadwing

I think it's already been said this is actually the Cyberverse KUP, not a deluxe. Or at least this picture is. I'd say don't pay 20.00 bucks for a TF that there is no picture of and is less in stores. (unless you shop at Target that is)

Want to ammend the TFSource description to read "These hard to find (except for Bumblebee) figures...."

Or would it be better to say "These hard to find (BECAUSE of Bumblebee) figures...." ?

Then why does it say "Robots in Disguise Deluxe Wave 5" on top?

The whole wave consist of a mix of figures from wave 1-4. I think soundwave's in there too. These are the 2 new figs in wave 5.
