That's what I was thinking it might be given the timing of it all but not sure since it's very exclusive to Universal Studios. The store exclusive figures like Thundercracker, Retro Pop/Rock sets and such all had unique numbers too so it's possible.

Also I think that with some orthodontic rubber bands and some TF nerd determination I will have my combined mode for the bikes...oh yes, it shall be mine.

It also helps that I just replayed the ROTF game, I wonder if there are some flame pieces you could attach to him to make it look like it has the flamethrowers from the game.

Yeah, I do wish Long Haul was bigger. He would’ve been a great Leader class imo, he’s way bigger than Rampage and even Starscream, and he forms Devastator’s entire leg in the movie while the SS is just the lower leg. Still, it’s a really good figure.
I also found some more pictures of the new SS Bumblebee, giving a little better view of the plasma cannon and the backpack, which folds up pretty nicely.

Not sure which. I mean I did just buy DotM Optimus and a few weeks ago got Long Haul so haven't I spent enough for now? Oh I dunno. I do know that if that new Bee and Soundwave were out right now I'd have already been on some site ordering them before I came here. Hm... maybe Hightower. He's one of the cheaper ones... and a weirdly interesting bot with his strange legs, long neck and lil t-rex arms. Hm maybe. Still bugs me I never seen Rampage or Scrapmetal but hope they'll be restocked. Never did find Bonecrusher at regular price either. DNA Design kit for Jetfire isn't out just yet either. grrr. what to do what to do...

That's a good idea. Also it turns out they have 1 Rampage in stock but it's £34.99 and add postage on it and it's more than I was kinda hoping to buy a new TF for given that I'm jobless and bought two sizable TF figure purchases recently too. A deluxe would be more doable. I've put my email in the Scrapmetal page at least so will be notified if they restock. I've done same for Bonecrusher there just in case (and it reminded me their Voyagers used to be £29.99 hmm Also i remembered that's where I got Leader Class Jetfire at start of January )
