To say siege had a price increase/proposeed costs of Omega, some of the prices lowered over here £17 for deluxes previously £18, leaders £47 previously £50. With less stores stocking them and even those retail stores that do like Smyths, do not stock in quantity so online orders are not possible. Amazon.uk doesnt even stock them, so buying through a third party seller is £24+ for deluxes! Expecting Omega to not be available in stores and around £160-£180 which then makes it more appealing to go third party

Two reasons why it isn't Primus or Unicron:
1. Scale. Bot mode scale matters now, those guys are way too small to be released again at mass retail (i.e. not as exclusives).
2. Price. The price of $120 CAD or about $91 USD is too low when TLK Primus was $150 USD and I think Platinum Unicron was $130 USD.

Thats cool tha the pricing rules out just another repainted Primuus, but I dont think scale is still all that important to the line (reflector being a deluxe)

Astrotrain maybe, no way for the other two. Hasbro is trying to get robot mode scale reasonaly accurate, and making one of the Decepticon triple changers that much bigger than the others just wouldn't work. I think it is possible that it might be Broadside though.

To be fair reflecktor is going to be a small deluxe as so much of his plastic allocation is going to the accessory to form the barrel of the combined camera mode.
