Calm down. You can't order them just yet, but four Transformers DOTM figures have been listed on Kmart.com: Deluxe Bumblebee, Deluxe Ratchet, Deluxe Crankcase, and Voyager Ironhide. The listings include unphotoshopped images and bios.

BUMBLEBEE has spent decades perfecting his fighting skills. With or without weapons, he is one of the most skilled fighters the AUTOBOTS have. He is dedicated to using his skills to defeat the DECEPTICONS*, no matter where they appear. Spring into action with this vehicle-to-robot hero! Convert your mighty BUMBLEBEE figure from Camaro Concept car vehicle mode to battle-ready robot mode. Then convert him back to vehicle mode so he can chase down his enemies, complete with a plasma cannon on top of the vehicle.

As an expert tracker and infiltrator, CRANKCASE serves MEGATRON* from the shadows. Unseen and never recognized, he watches the AUTOBOTS* and reports their movements back to his master. He rarely engages in combat, but when he does, it is swift, terrible, and final. Fasten your seatbelts for some fast-paced fun with this vehicle-to-robot villain! Switch your mighty CRANKCASE figure from Chevy Suburban vehicle mode to battle-ready robot mode. His blaster even converts to a blade claw weapon in robot mode.

AUTOBOT RATCHET has dedicated his life to healing the sick and repairing the wounded. Every weapon he has ever carried has served a dual purpose as both a means of defense and a rescue tool.

With just one click of a button, this mighty AUTOBOT RATCHET figure changes from Hummer H2 vehicle mode to battle-ready robot mode so he can chase down his enemies or fight the fiercest foes.

They all look pretty good, but a little more paint would be nice. I'll definitely get Crankcase, probably Bumblebee and Ratchet, and save my money for Leader Ironhide. Also glad we finally got some bios, though Ironhide got a little shorted...

LOL. The last time I ordered Transformers from Kmart I got an email the next day canceling my order. The thing was, they didnt credit back my card for TWO weeks. It wasnt a small amount either. Even when I can, I wont order these at Kmart.com.

Out of these four, only Crankcase and Ratchet look decent.

crankcase is a predacon~ ... see who gets the joke

Because he sort of looks like a Predator?

Ironhide looks in desperate need of black paint ill buy him when the price comes down.

Bumblebutt... i could be sick if i have to look at another one and he looks like he has lost a hell of a lot of detail.

Ratchett i have no interest.

Crankcase i will buy him but not straight away if this is the first wave ill save money for the second.

The only one here for me is Crankcase, and he is on the "maybe, but only on sale" list.

I haz to much Ironhides, Ratchets and Bumblebees.
But seriously, Bumblebee looks horrible. Is he suppose to be
a Bludgeon remold? That face doesn't look friendly.
Good thing the last one was spot on.

"With just one click of a button, this mighty AUTOBOT RATCHET figure changes from Hummer H2 vehicle mode to battle-ready robot mode"

"Click of a button"? WTF? And its rated as a 2nd level conversion? There's 2 issues here......the description makes it sound like its an Activator. But why would it be a 2nd level if all you need is the magical push of a button?

Bumblebee looks crap, thanks Hasbro, for showing me why I need to stick with BB Bumblebee. The Mechtech weapons look a bit too big on Crankcase and Bumblebee, but Ironhide and Ratchet look alright. Only definites here are Crankcase and Ratchet, so far.

I wish to hell that Deluxe Ratchet was voyager class, instead we get that same 2007 mold:(

Ratchet converts at a push of a button? WTF? I hope that's his Activators description (assuming he's getting one). It would seem odd to make a random deluxe with an easy transformation.

Anyway, of all of these, Crankcase is the most boring in my opinion, but I'm sure I'll end up buying him. The rest are definite buys, although I may need to get the original Ironhide voyager to be in scale with the SAME voyager Ratchet mold.

Ratchet looks pretty, good. He's one of the few though.
