I’m a Frenzy it red guy so I’m just going to call him that but he’s got fireblast effect plugs on his hands just like Storm Cloud.

Sorry, it's early...I misread your comment as "Where's our Primus?

Still...I read most of the IDW comics, and had no idea that was the case. As I'm not really a fan, and glad that chapter is closed. I agree with the person that felt Warden had no idea who this was, and just agreed to the design to placate a few fans, which is fine. My son will enjoy this merely as a battle master, on the same level as Pteraxadon or Smashdown.

Do does that mean Rung can smite his enemies with holy lightning? He’s a literal god gun now! 8-}

Awesome headline. "The reveals are revealed!" How about designs revealed? Figures revealed? A lot of choices would work there.

:BOOM:

The question on everybody's lips when an item is revealed is how much and where can I get it. So, we are always happy to answer those questions asap.
Price tags for both the Siege Rainmaker set and Micromaster 10 pack were found at a target in Minnesota. Below is a description of each tag. The Target exclusivity is only for the US, of course. We do not know who will be the exclusive retailers in other countries. Target has been early on their price tags before so don,t expect these products to be there tomorrow (or next week). All we know is who is getting them and for how much. These were found by Marto6 who posted on the TFW2005 boards.

Rainmakers

Name on tag: TRA Seeker 3pck
Price: $79.99
Item number: E5002

Micromaster 10 pack

Name on tag: TRA Micro pck
Price: $39.99
Item number: E7670

Every time someone writes "Micromaster Combiner" I think, "like the Universe ones that were full teams that combine into a giant super bot?! Did I miss something in those photos?!"

I realize now you guys are talking about the 2 blue Micros that combine in alt mode. :lol:

They look fun, but how awesome would it be if they DID revive those guys? I'd be all for it!

Some fun reveals here. Lot's of great stuff coming our way!

Yessss awesome news! Thanks Will!

Man that’s downright reasonable. That’s crazy.

Wow! Those Target exclusives are priced about $10 cheaper than if you were to by the same count the way they're singly packaged.

i.e 1 Voyager is $30. 3 Voyagers at $26ish a pop.

Thanks Target. Or Hasbro. Or whoever sets the pricing.

I totally understand that sentiment. But considering the Universe Combiners were based on Operation Combination combiners, if they were ever to be realized again, I'd prefer them to scale up with the previous CW & PotP ones we already have and use the same system. The same with Landcross and Monstructor/Dinoking.... except that in ALL those examples, these were teams of six instead of 5, and they coujld only combine in one way. I guess relegating one team member to be a weapon would be fine.

I literally love everything I'm seeing. Astrotrain looks awesome and so does Apeface. Crosshairs and Spinster look great. Can't believe we are actually getting a Rung. I really want to get my hands on that Micromaster ten pack. I cannot believe we are getting Micromaster combiners that's awesome hopefully we get Oiler and Slide because they are my favorite. I also didn't expect to get Rumble and Ratbat is also a nice surprise. I'm betting Frenzy will come with Buzzsaw.

Those packs are surprisingly affordable, I thought they’d be a little extra for exclusivity’s sake. Definitely going to have to check them out when they start showing up!

I would have like to have seen an effects pack, with the different blasts all in different colors.

News Credits: 55 · by **o.supreme** » Wed Jul 17, 2019 9:56 am

I was going to mention the bargains- are they missing anyting? Are the *Rainmakers* missing any accessories that come with standard Voyagers? For the Micromasters are they missing anything?

The one released Amazon exclusive (Greenlight) equates to one dollar less than retail price for one Deluxe + one Battle Master.

The value of the contents for the Autobot Pack would be about $46, and the Decepticon Pack $48, but BOTH are expected to be around $45 or $46 USD if released through Amazon (as expected).

Not as good a deal as what Target is offering, but you still get your monies worth.

For real, Micromaster combiners revisited with better gestalt mode articulation would be awesome.

I'm glad there affordable. And I guess that means I have to go to Target now.

*holds hand up*

I'm the same, to me Rumble is blue because of the cartoon, and I got the toy off my parents and didn't read the card :lol:

Those prices are suprising as that's a little discount on the voyagers isn't it? Maybe target got to set the price on these.

Huh I've been been more happy to be wrong about something. Those are great prices for the sets and the petty side of me is happier still because that means the idiot that bought the eBay set paid more than double what the rest of us will have to pay.

Obviously unsure when these exclusives will release, but from my experience with Target exclusives, they often end up in the post holiday season clearance isles. So there's a modicum of wishful thinking.

News Credits: 55 · by **o.supreme** » Wed Jul 17, 2019 10:40 am

I could be wrong, but I think this is a nice result of not having a live action movie this year. One less full line to develop, and while it seems SS and Cyberverse keep *trucking along* , Generations is really getting a chance to shine with exclusives. Even though many of them I will not purchase, I still love seeing them all, and appreciate the attention this line is getting.
