Generations Mini-Cons released in the US!

Motto: "Don't do drugs, beer's cheaper anyway!"
Remember the images of the new and upcoming Mini-Con repaints for the Generations line, the ones with the hilarious names? Do you also remember that the names where so bad and hilarious you wanted, no needed them?
Well now you can, if you live in the US that is!
A member of fellow fansite tfw2005 by the name "thenatureboywoo" has found the single pack Mini-Cons at a Family Dollar in Weston, WV and purchased Pan-Handler, he has photographic proof of his purchase, if you wish to see it just click here and visit his thread over at tfw!

bah, those names are still better than a lot of Micromaster names and even a few G1 names. What's worse is that they never do any repaints of any of the Minicons I want. You'd think with the PowerCore Combiners, they'd want to put out some of the more multifunctional Minicons...y'know, the Emergency Patrol, the Requiem Blaster, Star Saber, Skyboom Shield, those missile launching guys, some of them. Why do you torture me like this Hasbro? Why?! :P
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Astrotrain, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, or 3rd Party iGear Ratchet and Ironhide.
Also looking for Universe Repugnus and Overbite, Frostbite and Longhorn and any Webdiver toys.

I think those Armada Mini-cons you lust for all have dead casts! Would be unprofitable for Hasbro to make new casts for them and sell them to a relatively small target audience. Off to Ebay for you :P

Because those molds have been used so much that they are now unusable.

are they totally gone? :( Yet there's been about a hundred repaints of Classics Starscream? Ok, well, can't Hasbro just make new Minicons that are Targetmasters as well? Pwweeease?

Yes but that seems to be an exclusive ala the last two like it.

That'll teach me to skim read topics, I've just checked the link a little further up :oops:

I was under the impression that the gift-set and the singles were all the same toys, but apparently not.

The gift-set is also in a Euro-box, Tesco I'm looking at you...

Motto: "Actions speak louder than words!"
Weapon: Gattling Gun
Proof that all the cool names aren't taken. :D (For some of these guys, some of the names are rediculus)

Anyway, might have to start hunting for them, and my god, looking at the previous post at these guys, they have STATS for Minicons now? :shock: 8)

My wallet is gonna be so empty that I'll have nothing left for TF3...
