As for the figures, I really need to see better pictures before I can make a solid judgement. Wasn't happy about seeing the SS86 Kup mold again, especially on Dion with Orion sharing it, but I guess it makes sense (especially if somehow you're someone who still likes to think Dion became Ultra Magnus at some point). Erial being on the Prime Arcee mold is...underwhelming, mainly because of the issues I have with the bot mode as usual. But at least she has new hands, blaster, and bike parts to go along with the new head.
On the other hand, would anyone else be interested in an Animated repaint of the Erial rendition of this mold? Honestly wouldn't surprise me if Hasbro decided to go that route.
I'd much rather an Animated Elita come from a repaint of the Legacy Elita mold. Animated Elita had a car mode, and while she'd be blockier and have a different silhouette, it'd be better imo than the wrong vehicle mode and wrong silhouette, but not as blocky

I see... didn't pay much attention to reviews of the mold, but in my mind the 3 decos of the mold I know of they all had the wheels visible from the front, iirc.

There's an option to have them visible from the front, mainly for its intended placement as Road Rocket's shoulder wheels à la the original RR toy.
It can also be split in half to be some sort of futuristic energy-disc-launcher-doohickey gun for robot mode as well.

I'm definitely interested in this, but it's really hinged on the color scheme Hasta goes with.

Ooohh, color me intrigued. At least an amazon exclusive should not be impossible to get.

I'm sure they'll get the color right for Nacelle. But will it be ER Thrust repaint or another Tetrajet ? I can see cases for both.

I'm betting on it just being the Thrust tooling with the regular (or screaming) 'Screamer noggin. I could see them using the tetrajet tooling too but I guess they wanna squeeze more out of the Earthrise Seeker tooling after already wringing the Siege one pretty dry.

Oh, great, an Amazon exclusive. Terrific.
I'm glad we're getting another Seeker, but Amazon's burned me in the past.

I'm likewise not fond of Amazon exclusives, I just hope I can get ny hands on a Nacelle before it gets marked up to insane prices elsewhere.
Right, Ramjet and Dirge?

For me Amazon has had the best success rate for actually getting their exclusives to me. I've gotten every exclusive of theirs since Prime Wars without issue, can't say that about Target and definitely not Walmart or Walgreens.

I think one of the only exclusive line I've struggled to get was anything in Walmart's Velocitron line solely because where I live they just did not even try to stock it that much
I'm lucky I at least have Road Rocket and Override...

Can't wait for the two-pack. Also, yesterday this happened -
Grabbed him at Gamestop during pro-week, with my coupon got him for 12.49. I was surprised to see him, since I have basically half the wave one deluxes because they're d9fficult to find.
Transformers Legacy Evolution Wave 2 Deluxe Found at Gamestop in US

We thank fellow Seibertronian Sol Magnus for letting us know of a nice find in the US. He found Crosscut at a Gamestop in Maryland. While big box stores have a history of being where fans find their toys, the focus has really shifted to more collector based outlets, which are more likely to have current toys. We are seeing that with Gamestop in Canada where the Evoltuion wave 2 core class are also being found right now at Gamestops.

Woooo a new dion!
Ariel looks pretty good too even if the prime arcee mould is a little ifffy. I know some won't be excited, but I'm gonna love having them to go with Orion Pax. War Dawn is just one of those episodes I really remember from watching G1 as a kid.

That's a neat 2-pack and I'd be keen on getting Ariel, but like others have pointed out just not a fan of that Kup mold enough to sell me on it completely.

I only have 2 Amazon pre-orders at the moment:
Crashbar (still shows a release date of May 1st ) and Core Grimlock (June 1st). It would be nice though, for once, to have these items in-hand before the next wave goes up for pre-order.

I still have yet to see studio series Ironhide or transmetal 2 megs at retail. People finding new transformers are sure lucky!

Nacelle may be cool since I never got Thrust and may never either. Although I am still waiting on news of a G2 Starscream. That is my only real seeker want after getting a Sandstorm.

TMII Megatron, nope, I doubt I'll see that any time soon. SS86 Ironhide though....That and AoE Galvatron are at every Target in my neck of the woods at least, theyve even gone on sale a couple of times.

I only saw Ironhide for the first time today at Target, they're still shipping. Haven't seen TM2 Megs in stores, but they restocked on Pulse so I grabbed one there.

I hope that leaked VNR Optimus isn't some limited exclusive. I'd love to pick him up to go with Legacy Arcee and Knock Out to serve as "Prime Universe Optimus Prime".
And speaking of Primes, it seems like (at least according to Entertainment Earth) we'll be getting Armada Prime officially revealed April 18th
