Site sponsor BigBadToyStore.com has updated their site with preorders for upcoming Hasbro products, including Generations Jazz, Tracks, Thunderwing, and many more!

See the full menu here.

Stick with Seibertron.com for more BBTS announcements later today!

Actually they're saying these will ship November 2010 - just a couple months away.

This sucks. I missed out on Jazz. In a lighter note, I managed to secure Tracks. I hope the "Sold Out" status on these preorders change soon.

Nevermind the last post. Preorders are in stock for anyone interested. Get'em while you can.

Sorry for the confusion. They're Hasbro's Spring 2011 figures.

Does this mean Jazz and Tracks will be packaged in HFTD packaging? Will their bot modes be slightly movieverse in aesthetic? Is fallback meant to represent G1 Outback? Preordered them all. The 8 pack looks good for those who are missing the figures and have the money to spend on them, I've already got them though so new guys only this time around.

Jazz Preorder status back up

Yup, Jazz is back in stock. I just pre-ordered him myself. It would be nice if he actually came in Nov though.

I do have another question though, what is coming out for the Generations line for Nov/Dec if these are not? We've heard about all the completely awesome stuff coming next year, but not much concerning the wave after wave 4.

And there goes $100..........

A glimer of hope for UK/Europe fans - Jazz and Tracks seem to be HFTD line rather than Generations.

wow bbts is getting greedy

i am gonna hold out for in store prices or toys r us online.

According to the preorders - Skullgrin, Dreadwing, and Cybertronian Cliffjumper will be November releases.

got Tracks, Jazz and Thunderwing. Sweet.

As promised, Seibertron.com is bringing you an update of site sponsor BigBadToyStore's list of Hasbro 2011 Preorders.

New preorders include the hotly desired "Reveal the Shield" Legends and Scouts.

i'm glad this gives overseas people an option, but MAN is BBTS going crazy with the price gouging. 16.99 for a deluxe? GTFOWITDATBULLSHIT

The only deluxe I bit on from them in the last few years was the recent Red Alert, only because it will save me going to the stores for a couple weeks and the extra 4ish dollars was worth it for that.

I'll wait and find these in the stores

Think that's bad? Look at Windcharger's price. 18.99

Kinda glad I missed out on that pre-order.

i'll stick to tfsource! they have awesome prices and even better customer service

Is Legends Traillcutter going to be Trailbreaker?

HFTD is basically being changed to the new "Reveal the Shield" line. This is normal for the midway point in the past 5 or 6 years of Transformers. In this line they can blend "classics" style figures (see Solar Storm Grapple, Turbo Tracks, and Windcharger) and "Movie-verse" figures (see Fallback, Mindphuk, and Slapchop or whatever the hell his name is) under one line to pump out more figures. The gimmic to the line is that they all come with rub signs now to reveal their respective factions. It's a good way to be able to put the classics style figures people want in an existing line while the actual Generations line doesn't support anything other then a Deluxe figure. If that makes any sense...

The first 2o11 wave of Generations will be Thunderwing, Skullgrin and WFC Cliffjumper. Wave 2 of 2011 Generations will consist of Wreck-Gar, Perceptor, Scourge and prolly another remould. Fingers crossed for more WFC figures. Come on Seekers and Ironhide/Ratchet!

On topic, I preordered ery'ting I wanted except Windcharger as he was sold out. Figures, he's the one I wanted the most. Can't wait to see what the next scout will be!

Jazz and Tracks were sold out before I even had a chance to check the site

You think that's bad? Deluxes in Canada cost $15.99 at retail. I do agree that price hiking for the new figures is rotten. Hopefully they will keep it in check for future waves (yeah right). Sometimes I wish I lived in the States. $5 for shipping sounds like a dream

Do I need to play the disgruntled Brit card?
