Just found this at TFW2005

Apparently animated toys are set for release on 4th April and Classics 2.0 set for release on 9th May. If this is true then it looks like they'll be out soon (assuming us Brits will be getting them after somewhere else in the world)

We can hope this turns out to be accurate, though my wallet is already in agony at the idea.

Cool, I hope they make it to my place, if not it's importing them, just like the rest of my collection, damn I miss buying Transformers at German shops.

They probably forgot the 2009 part but I will be happy if it is this year.

It's a Prime that transforms all by himself using automorph technology. I hope it's not going to be another jumpstarter-esque bullpoop.

Sweet this means we don't have long to wait here for them ( Well I have to wait a little longer since I live on the east coast).

There's actually been a LOT of conjecture that since Movie toys aren't selling as well in the UK as they are here in the US, that UK stores don't want to bother with a bunch of Movie repaints, so both the Animated line and the UNIVERSE line will be released in the UK first. The US may still get both lines sooner than previously announced, but the UK will get the lines first.

So, congrats to the Brits, if this turns out to be true! :)

Also, and I can't believe there's no hype about this here on Seibertron, but Animated is GOING TO HAVE LEADER class figures! :P I KNEW it! :!: I just had a gut feeling that Animated was going to have leader-sized figures.

Bulkhead and Megatron are listed as 2 of the 3 leader figures, and most people think that Ultra Magnus will be the third, since UM is the Supreme Commander of Cybertron in Animated.

Lots of happy! :grin: :grin: :P

I looked at the post and it doesn't seem accurate. If Universe is slated for May why haven't there been any prototypes popping up. I mean there have been Animated prototypes on for around 4 months now. Plus I heard Hasbro UK wasn't even releasing the Universe line. :-?

This is probably bull, leader class Bulkhead? That would make no sense at all.

From what I know, the show will soon be aired in germany, and germany is right next to poland. so i hope that we will get to see the show in tv (yes, with polish dub.... uhhh.). And when the show comes, the toys will appear in stores.

Can I just say IN YOUR **** FACE ****!



Only joking :P (I have to quote family guy as much as possible you see)


But seriously. Ha.


I'm gonna post big juicy reviews when I grab these bad boys.

But still, I hope we get Landmine, Incinerator, Stockade and the Premium figures here. I want that Prime, Ratchet, Ironhide, Megatron, Starscream and Blackout so bad....

Nah, that was for all those pissing Yanks that complained about new stuff coming out, but how **** it is blahblahblah.


It's like moaning because you have to eat another slice of chocolate fudge cake. It's just not done.
