We can expect them between Fall and the 2013 holiday shopping season, that's when Hasbro likes to "reset" toy lines.

cool, thanks for the info, never really payed attention to when that happened. usually just wait for things to show up for preorder and wait till the product is sent out. with that time frame cant imagine they would be up for preorder anytime soon.

We've finally got ourselves a Blitzwing .... and I have to say I'm not blown away. All three modes look sort of the same to me, except one has some limbs, one has a big cannon turret and the other has a huge nosecone and some poxy little wings.

Springer is looking pretty sharp though. A bit lanky maybe, but a definite contender for a Defender replacement. At the very least I'll get him and try a head and sword swap.

found this on another site, no i wont tell u the site out of respect for this one.

TRANSFORMERS GENERATIONS VOYAGER Assortment
(Approximate retail price: $19.99 each; Ages: 5 & up; Available: Spring 2013)
The TRANSFORMERS GENERATIONS VOYAGER Assortment features larger scale action figures that kick off the celebration of the 30th Anniversary of the TRANSFORMERS brand, including characters in the ‘CYBERTRONIAN’ style as seen in the hit video game TRANSFORMERS: FALL OF CYBERTRON from Activision, as well as brand-new looks for popular characters. The breakout character from TRANSFORMERS: FALL OF CYBERTRON, GRIMLOCK the DINOBOT features electronic lights, chomping dino-jaw and a sword and shield! Plus, Triple-Changers make their long-awaited return to the TRANSFORMERS toy line! AUTOBOT SPRINGER converts from robot to either a car or helicopter, while the evil BLITZWING converts from robot to either a tank or jet! Each sold separately.

Your logic is a little silly, my friend. There's no rule that says you can't mention that some site or another has preorders up, especially if not many do as of yet. It's kiiiind of a big deal. Just as long as you're not spamming advertisements for something, you're fine.

found this on Amazon.com, dont know how it can be instock already since there not suppose to be out yet.

Amazon isn't listing it as being In Stock. They've got a third-party seller who CLAIMS to have it for $60, but doesn't even have a picture or description of it. It's a bogus-looking listing from a shady-looking seller who has only been selling through Amazon for one month. There's no way they have eight of these (as they claim) sitting in their warehouse.

I thought Summer/Fall too, so I checked are the regular e-tailers and they all say April release date...is that right???? That would be awesome if that is the case.

That makes me wonder when Trailcutter hits the shelves, and even more curious what kind of SDCC reveals we might get for the Generations line???

Do they typically do reveals at SDCC? With toy fair just happening and botcon coming up, what is there really left to offer? I just think with the complete list of sheer awesomeness at toy fair, anything now except for maybe some release dates, would probably fall on what could be deaf ears. And more so empty wallets. I know I have $300-$400+ leaving mine just from ToyFair reveals alone. Maybe BotShots? I'm not a fan but I do realize they are quite popular and why.

So what rumors are out that SDCC may confirm or squash?

Thanks all

Ok well Botcon then? Whichever comes first or the one they decide to reveal more at?

We know what is coming up until the end of this Summer... So we don't know what is coming late Fall into early Spring 2014..

Last year's SDCC revealed a TON of new stuff, with BotCon 2012 only revealing some few new things.

BotCon 2012 Hasbro reveals:

• Prime voyager Thundertron
• Masterpiece Optimus Prime (MP-10 mold)
• Generations Voyager class Soundwave and Soundblaster
• Generations Legends class Decepticon Data Discs
• Generations SDCC Bruticus
• Prime SDCC Terrorcon Cliffjumper

SDCC 2012 Hasbro TF reveals:

• Rerelease of the Prime First Edition toys
• Prime Cyberverse Legions Fallback, Tailgate, Knock Out
• Prime Cyberverse Commanders Battle Tactics Bulkhead, Skyquake
• Amazon.com exclusive Jetwing Optimus Prime
• Masterpiece Thundercracker (Mp-11 mold)
• Amazon/BBTS G2 Bruticus
• All of the Generations GDO figures (minus the never-released Voyager Brawn) coming to TRU
• "Year of the Dragon" Ultimate Optimus Prime coming to Amazon
• The entire BBTS Prime Dark Energon toyline
• Generations Wreckers
• Generations Voyager Blaster
• Generations Voyager Grimlock
• Linkin Park Soundwave

So, any word on release date thus far? we are almost in the middle of april and no sign of anything whatsoever...

My prediction is Robot Kingdom gets them end of April, but who knows when others like BBTS or TFSource get them then????

Sorry for double post...

I checked robot kingdom... did they update this listing? It says April 17th now????

Does that mean they get them in a week? I guess another 2-3 weeks for BBTS and TF Source then???
