The coast guard helicopter is EVAC, a Blackout remold, and the red camaro is Cliffjumper, an 08 Bumblebee repaint. I have no idea what the other two toys you are referring to are. With repaints and remolds, it's kind of hard to tell if it's going to be popular or not. I imagine Cliffjumper will be popular, although probably not to the degree that Bumblebee was.

I forgot about those. They are new molds so I would think they would be some of the top sellers.

If there isn't any distribution for them, then it'll be like it is now, pretty much. I plan on getting them all so I'm hoping for cases coming in more regularly and hopefully picking up where they left off here so I don't miss any of the releases.

I will probably pick up CLiffjumper (bumblebee repaint) and Stockade (Escalade). Dunebuggy dude, thing his name is Mine something, doesn't really interest me.

New molds will be the hotcakes here.
Dunebuggy, Escalade, and Osprey will be at the center of the shopper's war.
Cliffjumper is hard to tell. Technically, it won't sell much. But due to the shortage of 08 Camaro Bumblebee, so may just settle for Cliffjumper.
Evac may be the loser here.

Not likely. Even though supply will eventually far outweigh the demand, you're most likely not going to ever see a deluge of that figure. With the ridiculous demand for him, opportunists will continue to snatch up every copy of him available, long after we've had our fill. TFs is the hottest thing on the toy market now. You've got everyone and their grandma watching the aisles. Especially the dreaded, shifty-eyed SCALPER! Yeah, I went there. As far as I'm concerned, all the new voices in the fan community are scalpers. It's just something you have to work around. Learn the tricks, play the game.

The probably Cliffjumper could really make a killing!

All of this fuss about BB CC. I found him with eas. I guess that was just pure luck on my part, for I have not seen him since my acquisition.
Payload, Dropkick and Longarm however ... Can't find them in a store to save my life! Who would've knew, 3 toys with great potential to be "shelf warmers." They are quite elusive.

i wouldn't go as far as to say that every new voice in our community is a scalper as there may be some you also have to consider maybe some of them have extensive collections and just found out about seibertron believe me it happens all the time i mean look at my post count i have been here since june or july and i have a collection of about 800 to 1000 tf's but you are right it is something we all have to work around and if we help each other it could mean the difference between someone paying $500 for a common tf
