It was by simple sheer luck this last week that I was able to get my hands on Kup and Warpath. Howsabout giving us the last of the prior waves (like Thundercracker dammit!!) before giving us new Generations figures?! C'mon Hasbro, we know you're paying attention and millions of TF fans world-wide have made you a freaking truck-load of money on the DotM toys so it's your turn to show us some love back and follow through with what you promised us earlier in the year.

Black Shadow's an Autobot, right? Momentarily forgot. :lol:

As for Junkion, I don't remember an article about him. And what about the Scourge repaint/retool? :???:

I'll be getting the Junkion, and if I like the deco enough, I might get Black Shadow as well.

It's actually.. Ominous Prime-Evil, and he's given us some tips before. I didn't really feel like jumping on the train for this to be news'd, but whatever. SDCC will surely show Generations products, and if not, then so be it. Rumors are rumors, and never fact, right?

Anything they release under the Generations line, I will buy.

Oh hey that's great... Now where's the stuff that we've been waiting two months for?

Well, That's not so much Hasbro's fault, but retailers'. Since Reveal the Shield and Generations didn't have a movie lined up, they basically did a collective pass on them. However... wait let me put this bold:

Many retailers are now/will be stocking the later Generations figures for July. Also many online retailers are also doing that as well. However, don't be surprised if they want to put the movie stuff out first. In fact, I think an email from TFsource confirmed this.

I have seen a Wal-mart in Illinois (Des Plaines) restock on a ton of Wheeljacks, Thundercrackers, Scourges, and Warpath. If it is happening there, then I am sure the rest of the country is already doing it or about to.

As for the Black Shadow and Junkion, totally gonna pick them up. *Fingers crossed for Ironfist mold made from a Generations Swindle.*

My local Walmarts have the same. In fact, they have a separate area for the Generations/RtS lineup and the DotM figures. I was awfully tempted to pick up another Scourge to round out my Sweeps.

Cool. Cool-Cool. I have three right now. I am highly tempted to get another one.

OK cool, if this was the same guy who first made everyone aware of the TF Prime toys, then his rumors are pretty good.

So the movie line is getting cut off this time?

Won't bother with Blackshadow as Thunderwing was too pint sized.

Junkion on the other hand, is a must buy!! Good news :APPLAUSE:

It will be an addiction you'll kick once Hasbro goes out of business, which given the success of the current film, I put that about tens years before the earth crashes into the sun. :lol:

No, Generations and Dark of the Moon will continue side-by-side.

Black Shadow?! Great! I hope this toy will bear big resemblance to the G1 line. I am planning to have him since I read the comic book. He's one of the phase sixers that Megatron formed along with Sixshots and Overlord. Totally one BADASS Decepticon!
