Didn't care about Rodimus or Laser Prime (well maybe a little, but I already have the "regular" prime voyager) but Fastlane (Fastclash), Quickswitch, and Nautica were ones I really would have liked to have.

The wasn't a single Chaos on Velocitron set available anywhere near me. Didn't even have a display area for it at the TRUs I visited (multiple times per week to check since it came up here that they were out, as I mentioned before). The nearest one that showed up in the online store finder was over 2hrs away.

Thats the whole point, they havent all been purchased yet. It just means they have all been accounted for from the supplier. But so have a ton of other TR toys so I am not sure this is indicative yet.
Just out of interest, you couldnt buy it online when it went up?

Yes. Now go to your room and don't play with yourself.

For those who remember the G1 episode "Sea Change" may recall that his mermaid girlfriend was named Alanna. It looks like after all these years, he still loves her enough to have a "tattoo" of her name. We have posted images of the Cybertronian writing so you can have an up close look.
If you are a fan of Titans Return and G1 check out this article that compares Titans Return Cosmos with Generations Cosmos.

Takara's version of this mold also has yellow forearms and a head assembly cast in red plastic instead of white plastic. It would be interesting to see this new Hasbro version side by side with Takara's version to check the greens and yellows. I have a sneaking suspicion that the only difference between TR Cosmos and TAV Adams is down to the paint apps.
Not as good as a 3 way photo, but here's something for comparison:
(Pictures snipped for brevity's sake.)
Takara's version has the autobot logo on the chest, a darker overall green with a yet darker green on the top leading edge of the saucer, and has eyes instead of goggles, and of course the scan-me sticker on his right leg.
