What is the one new transformer figure your looking forward to in 2008
For me I think at this stage it is octane just because I have always wanted him every since I was little. My second choice would be the new animated series version of prowl.

Classics/Universe Sideswipe. Closely followed by Sunstreaker. Lambo bros 4 lyf. Word.

For anyone who hasn't seen Spotlight: Sledge (and why not?!), my gritty and dark fanfiction piece "Holiday" is posted here.

Oh yes, Octane is so freaking awesome to get
I am also looking forward to Animated Blitzwing. He should be interesting
One thing I don't understand is Animated Prime's deluxe and voyager class. Both are different(One has a G1-ish chest and the other has a blue plate), and these two different forms are in the show. Anyone know why?

Allspark line hits shelves in January, right? If that's the case, I'm actually looking forward to Incinerator.

Mind if I throw my agreement? I like the Osprey alt, and the jazz hands are just too funny.
Still, I'm mostly looking forward to Octane. Hopefully Hasbro will be able to improve upon the first classics triple-changer Astrotrain. While he wasn't bad at all, his alts weren't flawless.

One is a Cybertronian version, like the protoforms and the other (Voyager) is the Earth mode.
As for the topic at hand, MP Thundercracker if released and all the Animated, especially Grimlock and BA.
If all goes well, it's going to be the first main line I collected since I was a kid.

08 looks subpar. I am intrested in the return of Classics. Allspark Power, and Animated have a few gems, but overall, ehh...
What I am looking forward to in 08 is attaining all the major bases since retail is holding so little intrest for me
OVERLORD and my second OMEGA SUPREME should be arriving soon!!!

ah yes, aside from a few Animateds, it's seems that 2008 will be a good year for my wallet, with the dearth of interesting releases.
it's good that Universe 2.0 will be at Fall...more time to save for the completion of this line. Sideswipe and Sunstreaker are on top of my list, followed by Jazz (unconfirmed) and Ultra Magnus (unconfirmed?).

I will probably go with the Lambo brothers even though I have the G1 versions.

Here are my most anticipated, by line, b/c I can't just pick one:
Animated: Blitzwing
All-Spark: Stockade (who will immediately be turned into Classicverse Trailbreaker)
Classics 2.0: Even though not officially announced, I'm really hoping for Ultra Magnus with trailer/armor. Also hoping for Jazz and Galvy.
2008 is going to be an awesome year for TFs, me thinks.

I want to get my hands on Allspark landmine, He looks really great. Im curious to see how his skates in robot mode work.
Im also looking forward to incinerator. Ospreys are awseome.
I they make a classics trailbreaker and give him a facelift like all of the other classics vehicles, im definately going to snag me one.

My most wanted TFs of 2008:
1) Animated Blitzwing. I've been waiting for a new Blitzwing for a long time.
2) Animated Grimlock. This toy looks like a winner. Slag ain't bad either.
3) Animated Soundwave. A TF with a Guitar? That ROCKS!!
4) Classics Galvatron. Hope they make the toy looks like the cartoon version.
5) Japanese Classic Thundercracker. Well I can dream can't I?

Also looking forward to pretty much anything from Classics 2.0/Universe.
i believe that the earth-form Megs will be voyager-sized, following the trend of Animated OP being released in 2 classes.

There is a rumor floating around now that we may not see any new dinobots in the next wave of classics because they are talking about including all five of them in the new animated series. I kind of hope this is the case because grimlock and slag look really cool it is true I'm looking forward to them as well.

Just the whole universe line in general. I'll collect that whole line as long as they keep on making them.

So many things to look forward to!
>>I actually think I've decided to go completionist on the Animated line--too different and quirky to pass up!
>>Reissue Sky Lynx! I finally will have that crazy walking bird-cat. Always drooled as a child over it... And already on pre-order from BBTS!
>>The return of Classics! Loving the early designs of Octane and Sunstreaker--can't wait!
>>Universe Seacons--another great paint scheme for this set!
