Trademark issues. The same thing happened to "Decepticon Brawl"

That said, I like these and all, but please hurry up with the BW robot heroes. Waspinator would be great like this. (Honestly, I wouldn't be adverse to Robot Heores from a mix of all the generations, but right now, it seems like everything between G and the Movie is about to be paved over and only time will tell if they'll ever dig it back up.)

hmm ive never seen that but either way i think its retarded but oh well.

If these were happy meal toys I'd buy them all. I just don't think they're worth $3.50 each. I'm a g1 toon guy, but I like these movie robot heroes more than the cartoon ones. I didn't buy any of the cartoon ones, their look doesn't do anything for me.

thats exactly what i was thinking. this better not be the end of the g1's. i was hoping they'd go on for a while. the bayformers suck whether they're big or small. just horrible.

Just came back from BotCon and I have to say WOW! All the bots will become Rhs. I saw a little movie screamer, ironhide, crusher, and Brawl. But I saw one and I swear I've never seen anything more adorable and menacing, it was a Movie RH Scorponok.

They're certainly...interesting. Then again, with the intricacies of the movie designs, I suppose being "super-deformed-esque" would be hit-or-miss. I'm just goona go out on a limb and say the four in the center (Barricade, Jazz, Megs, and Prime) are the solid molds of the group.

I'm also glad to hear news coming in from Botcon that Beast Wars (and more G1) Heroes are up next. I wonder if Hasbro would be clever enough to release Silverbolt and Blackarachnia in a single two-pack...
