ok so about a week ago i bought a pcc 2pack and i have
just a few thoughts on them
1st i love the robot modes on these guys even though ive seen reviews and the galleries here i was still skeptical.secondly the transformation for several is quite intricate for a scout and the robot modes are remarkably symmetrical. the bonus i found was that there minicons actually plug into unicron and primus(didnt know this at the outset).all in all a fun and satisfying transformation and tons of play value.
ive been converted.have 7 of them so far and hoping to complete the set

From the looks on the shelves at every Walmart, Target, and Toys R Us I go to, you may find them very cheap before it's over with. Plus, I think I read on here somewhere that Hasbro said they weren't going to do anymore PCC figs.

Yes, I predict PCC showing up at the likes of Ross and TJ Maxx before too long.

as long as they still release Heavytread and Skyhammer I'm happy.

I agree with Diem about PCC combiners showing up at Ross, TJM and Marshalls, and its a good chance there will show up around Christmas this year since TJM and Marshalls had a plethora of Walmart exclusives Hard Head, Powerglide, and Skyfall during the Christmas rush last year.

I have three and they were all a disappointment to me. The minicons (apart from Chopster) are just poor.

hmmm i have been going back and forth over these guys... it looks like you have to get a load of the drones and mix and match to get a good looking combined mode. i wonder what the kitbashing potential of the drones is...
that aside some of the 2packs look pretty good, if i see heavytread i think i will get him all his modes look pretty smooth and im a sucker for a nice tank TF...
as for the minicons, gods frikken dammit, i want throttler so bad i wanna scream! i have plans for him but holy crap i hate sledge and i just cant bring myself to buy sledge to get throttler... groundspike is also pretty cool but not so much a problem as heavytread is cool enough to buy.
i think the PCC are cool in theory, but the drones are just not cool enought to justify themselves. the dinbots are almost there but not quite.
dont get me wrong i think i will snap up any cheap sets i find and build a coouple "perfect" teams but as a whole they just arnt good enough...

I guess you could say PCC are cool. It's your opinion and your personal likings. If you are surprised and feel pleased about your purchase, that's fine. How am I to say that you made a suckish buy? PCC are nice but I think PCC are a little outdated. I think you made a good buy as long as your happy with it.

I think its an ok line. I wasnt really into it and the only set I want is the 5-pack Grimstone. If only there aren't any drones...
