I only have one (PRID) and haven't thought about army building. I should say I was even lucky enough to find ONE.

I broke down and simply Ebayed my PRID Vehicon, and ordered a CV Breakdown (also a rarity in my neck of the woods)while I was at it. I'm sick of going in and out of stores looking for them. It's always going in hopeful and leaving a minute later pissed.

Enough already.

Watch, in a week everyone will be tripping over the darn things!

I have 2 deluxe Hasbro RID Vehicons I found at retail stores, and I have 2 pre-ordered Takara Jet Vehicons I am waiting on.
These should be enough for me. However, if I spot another on the shelves when the 2 per case assortment hits, I may just get another.

I do have to say that these are very nice troop building figures.

The next question is how many Insecticons you're going to buy?

1 Hardshell and 300++ Insecticons?

That assumes they're going to make generic Insecticons for Prime and not just the FoC trio.

I've got my PRID and to be honest he is sexy and sleek…(not knocking anyone that does, I had a Viper collection as a kid) but I'm not into troop building these days. I would rather spend my cash on variety. Now I would go for the jet mold.

Are you misspelling "Miner" on purpose? xD

No, stupid mistake. So, what IS the difference between the two?

That's provided Hasbro releases the Jet one. As of now it's a Takara exclusive, like Breakdown.

I think the miner Vehicons have a different head, they have two visor lenses instead of one. I could be wrong however.

Miner Vehicon:

2 visors, different shoulder kibble, different shade of purple. A remold just waiting to happen.

The paragraph for the voyager toy on tfwiki would suggest that there were plans from Hasbro, but I believe it to have been written mistakenly. As far as I know, Hasbro has announced NO plans to release voyager Breakdown at all, ever. And we've certainly never seen him with a normal non-minicon weapon or paint apps.

I plan to get three RID Vehicons. Whether or not that will happen, who knows?
I'll pick up one Takara Jet Vehicon. If Hasbro releases it, I'll buy two more.

If a Miner remold is released, I'll pick up one.

I love how Hasbro is releasing toys like Shadow Strike Bumblebee, Sergeant Kup and Hot Shot, while show characters like Skyquake, Breakdown and Jet Vehicon are AWOL. Makes no sense to me. I'm usually one of the Hasbro defenders, but I've got to question some recent actions.

Yeah, they did that with DotM and then it got cancelled. Morons.

Even if they said one or the other, I'm probably gonna have to resort to eBay for Breakdown, considering he'd probably be canceled if he reached the states anyway...
