TOPIC SAYS IT ALL.
i myself plan to get:
transformers animated:
leader megatron
voyager starscream
voyager blitzving
voyager lugnut
deluxe blackarachnia
deluxe lockdown

voyager optimus
voyager grimlock
deluxe prowl
deluxe ratchet
maby sentinal prime (if the toy is cool enough).

universe:
ultra onslaught
deluxe tankor
deluxe galvatron

ultra powerglide
ultra silverbolt
deluxe sunstreaker
deluxe sideswipe

the animated figures will be useful in megatrons revenge (P.O.T.A.S.2)
and the univers figures and the surviving animated figures will be useful in rise of galvatron ](P.O.T.A.S.3)

so back to topic, WHAT TRANSFORMERS FIGURES DO YOU PLAN TO GET THIS YEAR?

Probably nothing else...for now. That's right, no Universe.

I don't plan on buying a single TF this year. I'm dumping all my money into the "Narnia: Prince Caspian" figures.

Oh, and "Speed Racer".

Kidding. What figures will I buy? Try "most of them".

So far, I already got/preordered what was on my list...all that is left is Universe Prowl and Tankor/Octane.

News Credits: 9 · by **Sowndwave76** » Wed Apr 23, 2008 3:16 pm

From Animated, I plan on getting all of them except:
Black Arachnia
Deluxe and Voyager Bulkhead
Deluxe Prime (although I will get the 2-pack)
"Supreme" Prime
If they make an Arcee, I'll pass
And I might pass on Ratchet

Universe
All except Dump Load, the Blaster wanna-be, and Powerglide.

...sigh

far, far too many.

So much so, Hasbro stock may even go up a few points.

Animated:
most of the deluxe, Voyager, and Leader class, a few of the activators, and I may even be tempted by a supreme.

Crossovers:
Venom, Hulk, possibly Ironman.

Classicverse:
Probably all the new molds. Possibly one of the repaints.

Movie:
(thus far none of the following have turned up at retail in my area) Still on the lookout for: deluxe Dropkick, Legends Scorpy, Legends Ironhide, Real Gear Booster x10, Voyager Incinerator and Trans-scan Bumbles.

Encores:
depends on availability, price, and if I'm in the mood.

That’s something I cant tell you until the year’s over, we still have much to see from Animated and Universe. Everything for me is different priorities, but I can tell you what I wont be getting.

Wont be getting:

Animated

Bumblebee: Big, ugly and made of cheesy plastic.
Lock Down: Big, ugly and bad leg articulation from what I hear, major pass.
Most of the activators: I’ll admit some of these look nice, but I’d rather get the larger counterparts as opposed to these.
Oilslick: Awful colors, odd proportions and generally ugly toy, recipe for disaster.
Leader class Bulkhead: I like Bulkhead, but rarely do I ever buy leader class toys and I prefer the voyager.
Supreme Prime: Dumb gimmick, scale is so sad its pathetic, fifty dollar price tag.

Universe

Robot Heroes: I’ve never seen the point to those as a hole.

And that’s it, just about everything else I’ll try my luck at getting.

My list is about identical to yours. However, I think I'll wait and see what Takara does with Powerglide before I buy Hasbro's. That's IF I can afford any of this.

Wow, I wish I could buy that many toys. It's not so much the money (Although I am trying to save for a house), but that since I won't be buying my own house for a couple of years, I'm stuck finding room in my bedroom, and I'm pretty tight for space. I have to display the movie Leader Prime, Voyager Ratchet and Ironhide, and Deluxe Bumblebee and Jazz in vehicle mode all in the open trailer of MP-04 prime (And they fit perfectly, like it was made to display them

)

My list for this year, MP-06 Skywarp and Encore Ratchet (Which I just ordered), Encore Omega Supreme, Encore Metroplex, possibly Encore mini-bots (Depends on the price). Also, if they are in the future, Encore Scorponok and Encore Fortress Maximus (Hey, I can hope).

Yep, me, who is pressed for display space, has only the huge G1 base-formers on his shopping list.

I'm very much old school. Loved G1 as a kid, looked at the newer series on TV a couple of times (Whichever one introduced the mini-cons), decided I didn't like it. After the movie, I had to buy myself Prime and Bumblebee, and my toy-buying quickly gained momentum from there as I bought all the movie characters, then pulled out my G1 collection, and decided to try to get the few I always wished I could have as a kid. Bought Encore G1 Prime, then a while later bought Megatron and the Anime Galvatron, then Jazz, Prowl, and the last one I forked out for was MP-04 Prime.

Thankfully, I have original G1 Soundwave and Starscream, which has saved me a bit of money in re-issues that I'd get otherwise.

by **Mandamus** » Wed Apr 23, 2008 8:03 pm

I will probably get most of the animated line. Except maybe Oilslick.

From Universe -probably just Prowl, Sunstreaker and Galvatron. Maybe the robot heroes.

I've already preordered the Encore seekers.

Animated.

Earth alt Megatron
Lugnut

Movie.

Incinerator

Universe.

Onslaught
Cybertron defense scattershot repaint

by **bigredrobot25** » Sun Apr 27, 2008 7:53 am

ok, after seeing the pics from bot-con i have changed my list:

transformers animated:
leader ultra magnus
voyager optimus prime
voyager grimlock
deluxe sentinal prime
deluxe ratchet
deluxe prowl

leader megatron
voyager starscream
voyager blitzwing
voyager lugnut
deluxe blackarachnia
deluxe lockdown

universe:
ultra powerglide
deluxe ironhide
deluxe sunstreaker
deluxe sideswipe
deluxe bluestreak

ultra onslaught
deluxe galvatron
deluxe tankor

the reason i took off silver bolt is because he dosent seem to have a complex transformation (for an ultra)
i added ultra magnus because of the amout of weapons he has (and because he is not an optimus prime repaint).
i added ironhide because his robot mode looks G1 and appears to have a complex transformation.
i added bluestreak because i want the universe prowl mould without having two of him. :-P

News Credits: 1 · by **Cascadia** » Sun Apr 27, 2008 3:14 pm

As for me, I added a few more to my list on top of the list that I already posted:

So this is my short list for this Fall:
Everything is Classics 2.0/Universe except for the one that is noted.
Sideswipe
Bluestreak
WW Prowl (if it is true this time around)--Titanium
Prowl
Tankor/Octane

This year, I had to be choosy and not get every single one due to other finances and I am in the process of moving.

With my new-found wealth (a.k.a. High School Graduation Money), I think I'll have to commit all of it to the Animated Line-up, plus whatever else comes along.

I think i'll just say bye-bye to sunlight for the rest of the summer.
