Nope, I skipped that, Elite BB and I plan on skipping Goldfire Grimlock too.

I can't wait for these two!!

Nope. I have the Voyager class version and that's enough Lugnut for me unless a Leader class version becomes available, which it won't.

When I first saw the Botcon pictures, I thought the disc weapon was his hand which didn't make me want him, but now that i found out he has two hands and the weapon is detachable so now i'm gonna get him

[Primus1101]

Blackout = WANT! 'Nuff said.

[GuyIncognito]

I'm a little disappointed in Blackout, but I'll probably end up buying it when I see it on the shelf, and he'll probably look pretty cool next to Atomic Lugnut.

Thundercracker is a total pass. I still hate that mold and I'm sorry I bought Starscream; it's my least favorite Animated figure. There's just no way to pose him that doesn't look stupid.

Both versions of Lugnut are Voyager-class. Atomic Lugnut just has a cooler paint job.

[DMSL]

I'd rather see them make a Leader Class Blackout.

Oh, I meant normal coloured Voyager version of Lugnut. The Atomic Lugnut looks cool but I was only going to get 1 Lugnut and only got it due to the discount and so if I have 1, I'd rather have the more show accurate one to fit in with my collection. Now that isn't to say that if there was a good discount on Atomic Lugnut I wouldn't consider getting it. He's such a cute little guy.

no offense to people who like that blackout but that blackout is just like a bit of a copy on the 2007 Blackout and 2009 Grindor. Bad choice, hasbro, and bad choice for the TF:A people to make it a copy,

[Tyrannotaur]

I still don't get how an animated figure is more movie accurate than the actual movie figure. If they ever get around to making a leader class Grindor/blackout they need to just use this design, just more realistic. His hands form his helicopter tail, the rotors sit on his back, his legs make up his body, and the helicopter cockpit splits open to reveal his head and his chest gun thing. If they can do it with the animated line I don't understand why they can't do it with ROTF..

This figure is cool though. maybe the only animated I ever buy.

It's the Transformers Animated version of the character I believe...it should be a "copy" or rather an adaptation. In the brief appearance of the animated character, it did an energy stomp type attack that we saw the original version do in the 2007 Transformers film.

Afterall, there's a RotF toy version of the TFA character Lockdown. It's the same deal.

Animated Prime is a copy of Cybertron Optimus Prime, Starscream is a copy of G1 Starscream, Rodimus is of Hot Rod, Waspinator is of BW Waspinator etc. Why should they not base a character off a movie design?

[OPTIMUS MAGNUS]

Awesome. Love em both! Will be picking these up for sure! Wish we could get an update on Rodimus and Arcee...

[Warbreaker]

Blackout has symmetrical hands with that disc-eject thingy being a handheld weapon? He has a nuke symbol just under his rotor?

Dangit, and just when I thought I've completely gotten over animated! Then again, Blackout is a homage to a live-movie character... Not really that interested in Thundercracker though.

I don't understand your complaint. Are you not aware that MOST transformers are based on a previous transformer?

[NuclearConvoy]

I am so happy that Blackout isn't stuck with Tailprop for a hand forever.

[Slagbringer]

Blackout looks great in animated style...I love that their completing the seeker set although Im still searching for a skywarp which I have yet to see in stores...One thing would have been nice to see would have been jetfire put into a animated style that sr-71 would have been so cool!

[roboleadr]

Hey At least they're trying out different types of weapons....
Blackout's back propeller seems to be a launch-able disc with the trigger being located on the bottom
nice , but I still don't really want him, my brother might get him though
