If they manage that, maybe they could also find a use for the Squawktalk/Beastbox and Grandslam/Raindance molds too, just to round things out.

Posted: Fri Jun 29, 2018 10:32 pmInteresting set.Looks cool.I wonder if the box gonna give some sort of lore to explain why these characters are together.
Same here,where I live,most movies Bumblebees are gone in short time after they appear.

At the very most, I'm guessing their colour schemes will be based on cassettes from the movie, but I don't think we'll see Uruaz and Dairu themselves.Lucky Logician wrote:Bumblebee has finally fallen so low that they have to pack in other exclusives to get people to buy him. The oversaturation is real.
I don't know what it's like elsewhere, but there are little to no Bumblebees left in any toy store where I live. The only Bumblebee figure still shelfwarming is the TLK one-step changer (and even then he's outnumbered by Grimlock), all the others are gone. There are plenty of Twinfernos, Hot Rods, Grimlocks, Soundwaves and even Megatrons, but not many Bumblebees. So as much as we all hate him, I'd take that as a small indicator that Bumblebee toys do sell.

Posted: Fri Jun 29, 2018 10:39 pmSame here, the best selling toy from TLK was that repackaged one from AOE which was selling at a 33% premium. And it still sold like hot cakes.

Yup. But its gonna be super weird here since one is translucent and the other isnt.

Legout looks super weird already, so it doesn't matter. Still it's a shame I wouldn't be able to get them.
Re: Japan Exclusive G1 Dino Casettes Being Released in the US As Part of Bumblebee Themed SDCC Exclusive
Posted: Sat Jun 30, 2018 12:01 pmThis is certainly... unexpected, but hey, freakin' Dile and Saur, man. Goldbrick Bumblebee actually doesn't look too bad either.
They're gonna make one G2 neon funky looking Legout with those colors, though.

Posted: Sat Jun 30, 2018 7:34 pmIf someone wants to go in for half, they can keep the Bumblejunk. All I want is the cassettes. Otherwise I'd drop the car into the Goodwill donation box.

Posted: Sat Jun 30, 2018 11:14 pmI am so fracking stoked for the dino cassettes The Originals are always so expensive it'll be awesome to finally be able to own these molds officially..... And being somebody who is trying to collect one of every single mold from 1984 through this makes me very happy!!!

In-Hand Images of #HasbroSDCC Exclusive Dairu & Uruaz Dino Cassettes
Posted: Sat Jul 14, 2018 10:56 amCreeping ever closer to San Diego Comic Con 2018, we have another set of images from fellow Seibertronian Blacklai, featuring the SDCC exclusives G1 Dino micro Cassettes Dairu and Uruaz - included in the set with Bumblebee - from a variety of angles and modes, including their combined form!
It looks like, along with SDCC, this set will also be found at the Animation-Comic-Game Hong Kong (ACGHK) 2018 event later in July, too, so there may be more of this sets available than initially thought, even for the secondary (official) market. Check them out below, and let us know what you think in the Energon Pub!

Nope, just further proof that Hasbro went far out of their way to repair this mold (and gave him a worse face than the KO).

I find it so odd then that they recreated the original colours for just one of the two casettes.
Re: Japan Exclusive G1 Dino Casettes Being Released in the US As Part of Bumblebee Themed SDCC Exclusive
Posted: Sat Jul 14, 2018 9:45 pmThose combined cassettes look terrible. Thankfully they weren't released in the US. It looks Go-Botish,full of screws, and. Awkward. That face. And as much as I love dinosaur transformers, it is too far a stretch to imagine a minicassette transform into a dinobot sized beast mode. Imagine how huge this cassette combiner's robot mode would be.

Because it's a different character. Dairu is the Studio Series version of Dile, but Uruaz is the evil twin to Zauru (hence being a Decepticon) according to Hasbro themselves. And since they've basically confirmed they're making a tradition of this expect Decepticon Uriad and Autobot Zauru next year (or perhaps at NYCC?). And looking into this it might also be why they didn't go with the name Dile since "Elid" seems to be a made up name used in the game Runescape, but nobody uses Uriad.
