Sweet, Can't wait for Autoscout. The ladder mod looks pretty good too.

Well the auto scout looks great.... but still I'm having second thoughts on the ladder for inferno and the gun for the autobot brothers.

The cassette autoscout drone is looking great. I'd like to buy it when it's released but I don't need the rest... I hope they also release it separately.

Don't you remember? Soundwave had the Autoscout. He used it in the episode "A Prime Problem".

Probabaly should have called it the Deceptiscout in the epsiode.

Split a set? I'll take the ladder and cannon, you take the scout?

Can someone explain the significance of the cassette/scout, and why it's included in this set?

It simply appeared in one episode, "A Prime Problem". It's a never produced before figure. It didn't do that much in the episode, but still it's cool.

The problem for me is that I like to have everything complete, which means that if it's not released separately I'll have to keep the parts I don't need in the package so that the package is still complete. I'd rather have a small package just for the scout, which would be complete just for the figure I want. Not sure if I explained well what I mean, I'm not english or american :| .

This is not that club, TFC is another thing. This will be available to everyone at least on the usual online stores like robotkingdom, bbts, etc.

I like the ladder aside from the logo on the side. If this set ends up being fairly affordable I'll probably pick it up.

This set looks really nice, I'm especially liking the add on for Inferno. Wonder what the price will be.

Hope they produce enough of these so it is affordable. I'll definitely take the shoulder missiles and Autoscout. Soundwave's army grows! The ladder looks nice but I don't have a big problem with the new water cannon Inferno now has...

hmm.. on second thought his alt mode does look really nice with the ladder....

I like the ladder, But if I remember the original pictures of the set the missile launchers for Sideswipe and Mirage were kinda big.

Autoscout is pretty cool though.

They were all CAD designs I believe. Hopefully the launchers are scaled better for the actual release, I just think that they are too big.
