I thought they stopped so they prepare for the Movie toys and then after all that is done, they are gonna go back to making more.

The last of the Classics figures will be released at BotCon. After the movie, there will be figures released based on the new Transformers animated series.

Yep. For the fifty-something'th time, the Classics line was just a filler.

I think I am impartial to this line at this point. Really, the gems here for me were the seekers. The rest were nice but imo, not in the same league.

As the seekers will be completed at Botcon, I personally will be satisifed with the line as is.

Not that I wouldn't love them to give us all the dinobots in the line or some more characteers. Just that, I wouldn't be devastated at the end of the line now that theseekers are a done deal.

This was the rumor.
I don't think any official decision has been announced.
I dunno.
Not a sheeple.
Think for yourself, don't let the magic TV box and social media do the thinking for you.
Question EVERYTHING!!
Just because you have a youtube review channel doesn't make you special.
I look forward to attending a Botcon soon only to settle matters with several idiots in person (yes this is a threat).

Since you brought up the Botcon seekers, I just remembered something that I realized last night as I was putting together my Classics Devastator. After I get my Iacon package with the FIVE new Decepticons, the 'cons will actually outnumber the Autobots in the Classics line!!! Has that EVER happened before? Finally, a battle in which the Autobots can actually make a heroic comeback after being hopelessly outnumbered!

Of course, the other option has always been to have half of the Autobots rubbed out in a surprise assault. Hey, it worked for the movie.

Hmmm...you have a point. I guess I was just shocked that so much love was given to the Decepticons in this line (even if it DID have to come at a $279 price tag... :oops: )

Yeah, I doubt the classics line is dead. Hasbro is most likely just waiting till the movie starts or till the movie is over. I know Aaron mentioned that he did have some additional bots that he would like to see get made for the classics line. I say we wait a few more months before we close the casket on this line.
