That's actually were I got my Black Jack and Huffer. Both were at my Toys R Us (actually were the first Combiner Wars stuff I found in my area).

I saw this in my email.
32 bucks for two legends...
and 42 bucks for four legends?

Seriously am I seeing that right?

Yeah you are. It probably has to do with the fact they're repaints and might sit for awhile, and/or they know the other figures will sit and have to cover the cost of the cases. Probably why Robot Kingdom hasn't broken the cases up for Warrior Jazz and Sideswipe, and Legion Fix-it and Underbite. Either way neither figure is worth that much ESPECIALLY since BBTS hasn't gotten a release date right all year.

That 'Rodimus' really is terrible.

rodimus looks like a knock off to be honest

as far as I'm aware, RK doesn't break up the waves, it's all or nothing (unless one of the figures was from a previous wave, ie Silverbolt & Motormaster making up W2)

Of the upcoming Legends class figures, the only one I'm interested in is Groove. Rodimus, Skywarp and Warpath are easy passes.

I finally got CW Quickslinger today, so now I have all 5 original Aerialbots. I have yet to open any of them, I wanted to wait until I had all 5, but now I kinda don't want to. They look so good all lined up...

...in boxes. Which is no way for these magnificent pieces to be...

Free them bots! That is how it should be.

Where'd your Quickslinger come from? In store or online?

Yes, you need the 4th foot/hand/gun on that post in the center of the roof!

One more Foothandgun and he'd be a combiner all on his own!

We need a combiner that for each of the limbs, they themselves can be PCC style combiners with minicon weapon teams! :KREMZEEK:

Modular combiners-within-combiners for EVERYBODY! Suddenly, Grimpope is Computron's arm.

Just think, one combiner made up of a Leader with two scouts (chest & Targetmaster) four limbs each with 4 PCC style weapons/minicons. Hell, lets throw in a headmaster minicon too.

There is no end to the possible combinations. :KREMZEEK:

Just so we're clear on the rundown here, we've got...

A Scramble-style 5-man combiner.
A Targetmaster.
A Breastmaster/Powermaster element.
Four PCC-style combiners.
A Headmaster.
Minicons.

Okay, but we still need an Actionmaster element...somehow. And what subtypes of Transformers are we missing?

I do have one actually on-topic question. I know none of the Aerialbots do, but do any of the other Deluxe molds have pegholes on both feet, such that they could hold the Foothandguns, one on each limb?

Action masters are not a problem, you just have to give your combiner a transforming base/vehicle to roll around in while in robot mode.

That's F'n awesome. No pretender shell though? Maybe that will come with the transforming base.

They broke up the Wave 1 RID figures, all of the CW Legends, Deluxes, Voyagers, and Leader class figures. This was the first time I've seen them not breaking up a case since I started buying from them.

I was only ever able to buy an entire wave from RK for any of the CW figures (except for Motormaster as I mentioned) - only W3 legends varied, as you could buy Groove & Viper, or Groove, Viper & Warpath (as Warpath was short-packed) - every other release I've ordered from them has been the entire wave (not case mind you, just 1ea per wave) - which is fine by me, as I wanted the lot, the only single figures I've got from them are 3P or older releases they've got floating about their warehouse.
