no timetable for MP Grimlock??? :BANG_HEAD:

He is my #1 want of the year -any toyline, and LC SS is my #2 want. When is LC SS slated for? April? May?

I must admit that seeing Elita-1/Flare-up/what-ever-her-name-will-be as little more than a repaint is a let down. Still, I will be picking the toy up when I see it.
The Powercore toys and sets look interesting, will be following the news about them closely.

The limb-combiners for the power core stuff are a let down. :-(

But, the weapon type power core mini-cons are looking to be really cool! :grin:

I'm beyond giddy about Thrust!!! :grin:

Especially since I have a set of Botcon Thrust wings! :grin:

Drift looks OK, and a few of the not quite movie-verse tanks look good too.

HA Jazz, big thumbs up. Same for Seaspray.

Mini-Ravage ROCKS MY SOCKS!!! :grin:

I'm liking Hubcap, and I want to see some Go-bots homages from the mold like Super Couper and/or Tux. Do it Hasbro, you know you can't resist a repaint!!

The Chopper bike looks awesome too. Scout class motorcycles make me happy

Still loving the War for Cybertron designs too.

And (odd to say after the deluge of movie BBs) I'm really looking forward to WfC BB.

Definately see a lot I like in there, That Dirge repaint looks purty easy to turn into Slingshot, but I wanna know how many times they're gonna reapint Sideswipe, before the Corvette becomes Tracks.

I'm just glad to see an awesome looking combiner without a ton of combiner kibble. I hate that stuff.

Being a Springer hater and a Sandstorm lover (perhaps the only one here) I'm going to have to do it: OMG SANDSTORM NEEDS TWO ALT MODES WHY DON'T HASBRO BRING OUT A REAL TRIPLE CHANGER SANDSTORM!

Just kidding. I'm just happy there's a Sandstorm figure. Wouldn't say no to a new mold though.

Hasbro stated that Elita-1 would be a repaint. I don't even know why people are getting so worked about the Arcee personas. The ROTF bike figures are pretty god awful, 2007 Movie Arcee was the superior mold, and the bikes didn't even get much screen time.

by **Ungie** » Wed Feb 17, 2010 8:00 pm

First off, Elita 1 is not a new mold, as stated its a repaint. That's called lying, and lying's not cool, booboo. Second off, I thought Flare Up was the official Hasbro name. 3rd off, thats just blasphemy, and blasphemy is not cool. :BANG_HEAD:

So now the Arcee twins will never have an official 3rd sister. Arcee should've been the repaint into her. Even though the bikes suck and didnt have much screen time, Im an on-screen completionist,so no 3rd bike means argry boy and large sums of money wasted to have frenyrumble customize Arcee. Oh well. Thats just me thinking. 8-}

Big time. I've fixed that glaring mistake.

This may have been answered elsewhere and i just missed it. Is Blaster going to be a "wide release" exclusive (Walmart, Target, TRU) or something more exlusive than that?

Noo, he's only going to be an SDCC figure.

San Diego Comic Con 2010 Exclusive.

I'm really digging the new deluxe Bumblebee mold as well as the New Sidearm Sideswipe mold; it's much more screen accurate.

The only thing I don't like is the paint job. I'll probably get him, paint some yellow and black and call him Sunstreaker. Here's hoping this new mold is used with Blades for TF3.

LC Starscream is as good as bought. :KREMZEEK:

besides Blaster, were there any other G1 reissues coming out this year?? If not, i assume the info will drop around Botcon -which is what? July? :???:

News Credits: 11 · by **kirbenvost** » Fri Feb 19, 2010 12:26 pm

Blaster's the only one announced so far. Botcon is June 24-27.

And Elita-1 being black? I thought the third bike clone, I'm going by the movie on that classification, was suppose to be purple? But then again, It does leave room for a... you guessed it... repaint for Flareup or even Moonracer.

The picture look dark on that shot of elita. if you look close it is purple. and for the record. Moonracer is chromia. They just can't use moonracer here in the states.
