3 Waves, 13 figures and out of that there are 3 that I would consider buying and one that falls into the "Doesn't suck so maybe I'll but it" category. That's a pretty lousy track record you have going there Hasbro. You don't even give us the last 2 waveS of figures in your other 2 lines (at least not in my region) and then you heap 3 waves of mostly crap on us. Way to go! :BOOM:

We in Australia usually gets things at retail first? Hahahaha. No.

That being said, I have managed to snag a Shockwave, but havn't found any Deluxes beyond Wave 1. I wants me some Laserbeak.

Because he is the most popular character, and they think people/kids will buy them up like hotcakes.

Pretty much. Bumblebee has become the posterbot for the Movieverse, hence them abusing the character like this.

Man...I'm going to be broke. I actually like that Bee repaint. At least it isn't another Cannon Bumblebee.
And Laserbeak actually looks good to me this time!

Human Alliance Bumblebee? Battle Blades Bumblebee?

I hope you both realise it's a repaint of the first DotM Bumblebee.

Well, I do know that, I was just listing the Bumblebees I thought were really good, I'm not liking the new ones though, but hey, I don't have to get everything.

Kid-appeal characters > Hero characters. Any day.

All I care is that I finally have a Barricade who isn't a f*cked up lump of plastic, that's actually balanced and posable, has actual HANDS and ARTICULATE ARMS without some stupid ass cheap gimmick, and actually looks decent.

Just ditched his stupid weapon and gave him a pair of extra blasters. EVIL COP PISTOLS!

Honestly, while I don't like them per say, I think MechTech was a WONDERFUL idea... if only because it puts the stupid gimmick Hasbro insists every movie figure have in a piece that's removable, allowing the figure itself to be better.

Still don't need THREE F*KING BUMBLEBEES IN AS MANY WAVES though. Especially since they're trying to trick stupid kids with the different paintjobs and weapons. If you're going to repaint/retool a mold, at least make it a different damn character.
