The Energon Pub

We have received reports from all over of the new Construct-Bots hitting retail. Donald R. Grayson III sent us the following pic of Construct-Bot Bumblebee. If you see any new sighting in your area, please send them to News@Seibertron.com or post them in our handy dandy sightings forum.



We also have sightings of Bumblebee and Blitzwing from Seibertron and Razorclaw0000 at Toys'R'Us in Schaumberg, IL and Wilkes-Barre, PA respectively.

Just another lame gimmick that looks like crap. These things are more annoying than Kreons.

Just release the IDW Generations figures already!

Least half the wave one look decent.

I just stocked these two this morning didnt think be news wprthy thou thought it was posted before

SKYQUAKE?!?!?!

I think the bigger news is how the heck the photographer found a SKYQUAKE!

I'm a bit on the fence on these Bionicle TFs. To be fair, though, I wasn't a fan of the Kreon's either!

Doesn't hurt to send them in anyways

dear god $25, i was on the fence on a few of these guys but that price just pushed me over to the pass side. For $25 you can get a kick ass lego set

Yeah... that's AWFULLY expensive for what I'm assuming is the equivalent of a mid-size Hero Factory set. $15-18 would be reasonable, but $25 is WAY too much. Look forward to seeing these on deep discount though.

The Skyquake wave has been showing up at TRU however he is one per case and goes extremely fast. I Found one last week at my local TRU.

Wow, they're popping up already? I'm not too keen on them, but I'd like to see them in-person to see what they're like.

Have we seen any good size comparison shots?

From what I've seen before, I might be willing to pay about $10 for these. $25 is plain nuts. I see another year of well-stocked TJX stores ahead.

I can live with that. Especially if the parts are good and versatile~

Oh hey, Vange1us, you just made me happy with your showfloor demo!

Not that I'm aware of.

After going Lego, Transformers go full Bionicle?
I will be okay with that once they hit the innevitable clearance sales at Winners.

I picked these up Tuesday

I was lucky enough to pick up 2 Triple Changer Construct-Bots Bumblebees and one Blitzwing at the TRU in Lombard. As a added bonus, picked up Skyquake and Masterpiece Thundercracker.

Saw both of these guys yesterday.
Blitzwing looked cool, especially as a triple changer, but I am hesitant due to the price point.

There not really triple changers they are more triple parts changers

Did you not see the Vange1us review a few posts up?
They do not partsform. Just to be clear.

DO NOT PARTSFORM.

Just to be clear I own them they can only be in one mode at a time. Either tank or jet parts on the figure so if you have to swap off parts it's a parts changer. And the video you are talking about showed wheel jack not a triple changer.

Really? Well that's disappointing, what happened to all the engineering they were talking about? =_=; Sorry for the mistake.

It's cool and both blitz and bee transformation was the same way and so was wheeljacks. All the figures have wheels or wings even soundwave. I still think they are cool and the guy said it was to get younger kids that can't transform the figures we love into the brand. So that right there is a cool thing because it will help TFs get into younger generations so that we always have fans growing up and loving the brand.

Saw these today too at a TRU here in san Antonio.. Didn't look to special to me but meh, to each their own..
