I finally got my Wave 2 limbs from HTS. Boy they're really nice! Menasor has some pretty chunky legs but looks real tough. I'll wait until Blackjack hits the store before I get it though, as my GDO Deadrider figure is making an excellent chest plate for Menasor.
I thought that Breakdown was a little challenging to transform without the instructions. I didn't realize that the shoulders flipped downwards along the figure's sides to unlock the piece the head is attached to. Pretty clever engineering there.

They have already upped the prices of the Wave 2 deluxes to 18.99. Seriously Amazon, you did the same thing with CW Megatron two days ago. I know they have to make a profit but still... Ah well, I found CW Megatron yesterday, so logic would dictate that I have a good chance of seeing the limbs soon as well.

PS My bad, I overreacted when I thought the page said they used to be 15.99, it was actually just Drag Strip, please ignore previous hasty post.

blame hasbro for upping the msrp

Um, what?
Are you kidding me?
Hasbro decides the basic retail price, unless I'm mistaken.
But it's the retailers, physical and online, that can increase or decrease it.
So, in short, hush.

It occurs to me that I phrased my complaint about Captured Prey yesterday poorly. Figures sell out. This is natural.
When they do, however, the reasonable thing is for their listing to say they're sold out. What is probably not such a great idea is to remove the listings entirely but leave the big picture on the front page saying they're available for preorder that leads to the Combiner Wars category they are no longer listed in.
I spent more time than I'd care to admit thinking I just wasn't looking hard enough before locating the search thingy and discovering that they were just no longer listed.

Amazon will drop the prices down to retail. They always do. I suggest using a plug-in called camel tracker to monitor the prices. It'll send you an update when they drop.
Breakdown would be my favorite Stunticon but the hips are just too wonky and I don't like the amount of force I have to use to peg them into the arms.

Has anyone figured out a way to get Blackjack to stay on Menasor's chest better. He doesn't attach securely at all. I thought about widening the holes on the bottom of the car.

People have been wondering what Rook would serve as and I am pretty much set on him being the mold Hasbro will use for Brawl. Sure, the original Brawl was a Tank but if they insist on scale, an APC vehicle might be more appropriate than a tank (still waiting to see if there will be a space shuttle though 
).
Also, the more recent Brawl figures weren't tanks either:

My theory/hope is this:
Onslaught=Hot Spot, redeco/retool (new head, guns instead of ladder)
Vortex=Alpha Bravo, new head
Brawl to be a new mold tank, not because I'm all "geewun" but becuase I think an update to that to with today's engineering as a deluxe would be awesome. If he's a retool/redeco of Rook, that's fine too.
Swindle could pull off a new tooling of Offroad/First Aid, you think? How hard could it be to make a humvee out of that?
Blast-Off will be a new Legends Class fig, turning into a spaceship (not necessarily a shuttle) and forming Bruticus' Chest plate.
He would then need to be replaced with a more scaled military fighter jet, so maybe a newcomer from the Skydive mold?

Well the thing is Bruticus is going to be a 2016 figure, which means there's room for new molds on him.
Onslaught retool of Hot Spot is still the most likely.
Alpha Bravo was always Vortex.
Swindle, Brawl, and Blast Off could all be new molds. Plus whoever their sixth member is.

I'd rather have them use Firefly instead of Skydive for a sixth Bruticus member, because we still haven't seen his alternate vehicle parts yet. I'm going by the "2 vehicles, 3 heads" rule for that 
For those curious, here's what I have so far (yet again).
First name is the original release,
Second name is the vehicle pretool,
Third is the head pretool
Completed lineups are in bold (meaning they shouldn't be able to be used for more)
Skydive - Air Raid - ???
Alpha Bravo - ??? - Blades
Firefly - ??? - Sling/Quickslinger
Drag Strip - Mirage - ???
Offroad ("Ruckus") - First Aid - Ironhide
Dead End - Streetwise - Wildrider/Brake-Neck
Breakdown - Sunstreaker - ???
Rook - ??? - ???
Just all theories mind you, but if the Protectobots and Technobots are upcoming, We can already make some provisional mold pairings:
Brawl - Nosecone
Lightspeed - Prowl
Afterburner - Groove
Alpha Bravo - Vortex (alternate vehicle parts)
It all comes down to Unite Warriors Guardian (Defensor) and CW Prowl.

You may be on to something there, JelZe. I still hope that if thy use an Arialbot in Bruticus, they use Skydive. I hate the Fireflight mold.

Do we actually have proof that Bruticus is going to be a thing next year?

Listings for Onslaught and Scattershot were uncovered a month ago. Here's the news item:
Combiner Wars Onslaught and Shockwave figures revealed in store database, posted February 12th
For convenience sake:
Before anyone asks: 4 Legends, 2 Voyagers in that list, supposedly. Shockwave being a Legends Class does make sense, as Bruticus once wielded him (and shot him out of his cannon afterwards) in the G1 cartoon.

I skipped on Microblaze because with these interesting remolds showing up, I'm guessing, sooner or later Hasbro will give us a CW Bruticus.

I don't own either mold yet since I am waiting on the takara version. Would you mind telling me what is so different between the two?
Also, Jelze, how do we know that Mirage will be more of a retool than just the head?

I'm going by the standard fare of the second release being the vehicle retool. But that's no guarantee as Blades and Alpha Bravo have proven.
