Our own shockwaveuk has brought us some interesting news. Hasbro has updated the official Transformers website with a section for the Classics Line. The section includes bios and a new game. Check the new section out by clicking here. Check the bios out here. To play the new Classics game click here.

The game really isn't that fun, though it is comical.

Run! It's a whole game about mistransformed Transformers!

The line's over. A little late for this eh?

Until I hear otherwise, I'm assuming it is "on hiatus." If the movie does really well and drums up 80s Transformers nostalgia, then I wouldn't be surprised if the Classics line is brought back to life, at least I sure hope that is what happens.

It better not be over, Ireland ain't seen the deluxes yet. Well, apart from Argos but since they rarely seem to have stock from their catalogue I generally don't count them

EDIT: Oh and they mucked up, on the top left of the main page they've got a pic of Voyager Prime instead of the 20th Anniversary one

Anyone notice that the Voyager Jetfire is missing from the toy list?

Looks like the DEcepticons got it wore than the Autobots... Trypticon lost his hands, Starscream holds his guns rather than having them on his arms (though that's not the worst idea in the world), and Astrotrain... Don't get me started on what they did to poor, pooor Astrotrain, to say nothing of ignoring his train mode. Other than Rodimus's sumo stance, the only Autobot who looks mistransformed is Bumblebee, whose Wave Cusher is sort of on upside down...

But poor Astrotrain. How could they do that to my favorite Classic?

As are the Dinobots, Dirt Digger, Predator Attack, and Clear Skies mini-con teams, and the Ultimate COnfrontation 2-pack.

The explosions in the lame game are hilarious.

It's alittle bland, but without a show, and such limited fugures, I'm actualy suprised it's that good.

Also, that game is realy cheap!

I was thinking the same thing. Until I hear otherwise, this line is dead after the constructicons.

I'm confused. I don't remember ever reading that the line was over. I'd expect more, especially since the next line isn't supposed to be until May 1.

No other figures are planned to come out in the Classics, Alternators, Binaltechs, Cybertron or any other TF lines.

Except the Walmart exclusive Constructicons.
