What you're looking forward to - First Half of 2010 Transformers Toy Edition

2010 looks to be a fantastic year that's approaching. While most of the year has yet to be determined, I'm pretty sure we've got the first half of the year covered. This may or may not be reminding you of something that you've forgotten - regardless here's several that I just can't wait for.

Animated Rodimus Minor
Image
I think it's one of the best figures that was revealed at Botcon '09. It's supposedly coming out prior to Botcon 2010 this year. - April Release

Animated Arcee
Image
I've got a thing for fembots - April Release

Animated Vortex Blurr
Image
I digg repaints too.. especially ones of myself - Q2 Release

ROTF Leader Starscream
Image
Oh you've just got to have this - Q2 Release

Alternity A-04 Okamora Orochi
Image
I've never really liked Alternity... until now. This car is drop dead gorgeous and I think I'll be dropping dead if I don't get it - March Release

Botcon 2010 Set
I think Botcon is something that everyone looks forward towards. I think that SG and Wings of Honor were pretty weak compared to the years prior (I'm looking at you Botcon Thundercracker). I'm expecting something big in 2010.. and not necessarily for others... but for me (BlurrGimmeBlurrGimmeGimmeMoreBlurr) - May Release

ROTF Brawn
Image
Anything with Double Pistols... specifically Transformers with Double Pistols deserve to be in my hall of fame. Brawn fits the description. Backpackformer or not.. still pumped for this - February Release

Shanghai Showdown
Image
I gotta say.. I think i like this set because it's movie accurate! I know it's not high on my list... but still a set I need to check out - Q2 Release

ROTF Mindwipe
Image
I've always wanted some sort of stealthbomber - February Release

Takara Animated Shockwave
Oh my goodness chrome will look sick on this figure - May Release



That's all I have at the moment! I'm not usually too strict with threads, but please keep the selections for figures that we know of, and are set for release in the first half of 2010.

This isn't a wish thread!!!

Share your ambitions,

Oh yeah... Mindwipe, Brawn and Ratchet. Picking 'em up tomorrow, can't wait after a friend raved about them all last weekend.

HA Barricade! I know he's available on BBTS but I'm waiting for him to hit British shops.

Also in need of Leader SS and desperately awaiting images of the new Alternity.

After way-overspending on Transformers last year; I literally bought the entire Transformers Collection series and Transformers Commemoratives that weren't in the Collection, the entire Henkei Classics series including the exclusives (except G2/Beast Wars figures, Lucky Draw Galvatron and Clear Convoy, all Encore releases, City Commander & Masterpiece Grimlock, I'm trying to cut down this year.

I'm really excited about Fansproject Defender - finally a great looking Springer to add to my classics collection. I can't wait to see what this figure looks like fully painted.

I'm also looking forward to getting Dark Skyfire. I live in Tokyo and love getting the Henkei/Gentei exclusives.

I wasn't planning on buying any ROTF figures in 2010 but those pics you posted of the Shanghai Attack etc looked awesome!! Bludgeon would be nice too....

Gentei Dark Skyfire is one that I'm looking forward to get.

Mindwipe and Brawn will be sweet too.

Cannot wait for DL Blaster and Cheetor

FansProject Springer and Rodimus Prime.

I'm also very excited to see what Botcon will be offering us exclusivity whores this year.

Animated Rodimus Minor I shall call him just plain Rodimus. Looks like Curious George tho.
ROTF Leader Starscream Yes yes oh God yes!
ROTF Brawn Movie Deluxes FTW!
Shanghai Showdown I love the Demolisher mold.
ROTF Mindwipe More of a stealth fighter, actually. Will display well with Cyb Soundwave/Univ Blaster.

Def want ROTF Human Alliance Barricade and Mudflap, and whatever else the series brings. I love HA!

I am not particularly excited about anything from the first half of this year besides TFCC Dion.

Dion, the free orange Hot Shot, can't wait for him. Animated Rodimus and Arcee, ROTF Leader Starscream, Mindwipe, Skystalker, DLX Ratchet, Lockdown, it's gonna be a sad time for my wallet.

What, no Fansprojects "Springer"? I preordered mine!

I think Toshiba's domestic release of the Device Label linedeserves a mention as well. I think there's a good chance Blaster will be brought over as well. But even if he's not, his minions are now cheaper and have more capacity.

So far my list includes:
Bludgeon (still not available where I am)
HA Barracade
Arcee
Rodimus

and the aforementuioned Device Label figures coming over.

Alternity

I am so hyped for this line. I've been nothing but impressed so far. I'm really excited to see what their toy engineers have in store for us.

Does MP Ghost Starscream fit in this window?

Knight Morpher and the Alternity figs...

Why is it everything I'm stoked about is so expensive?

Oh Leader Starscream, you are so mine. Arcee looks tasty, too.

Any word on TFA Blackout? Like...any US release at all?

HK, lusting.
