Man, that chopper is horribly mistransformed on the cardback.

Oh. Wait. The chopper itself... heh, it's usually the robot mode that gets shafted. This time, they can't get the alternate together... nice.

Oh goodie. More of the same Mini-Con molds repainted for the fiftieth time. Boring.

Wait, the muscle car is named "Iron-Claw"? Assuming Hasbro's using Minicon repaints as a dumping ground for names they want to retain the rights to...could this mean they're planning a revamp of "G.I.Joe: EXTREME"?!?

Not all that surprising, considering one of the first Minicons was Wreckage. Be on the lookout for guys named Mayday, Freight, Black Dragon, Road-Bullet, and Skyreen in the next pack. Sgt. Savage would be a tad too goofy for a Minicon to pull off, but I can think of a few you could call "Screaming Eagle"...

Re-release the ones that turn into weapons and stuff and I'll start caring.

The single carded ones are scheduled to be a shared exclusive from Entertainment Earth and I think BBTS.

Another online exclusive? What about the people who never will buy online?

I dunno, I guess they will have to if they really want to, or some toy shops will buy them and sell for a higher price.

You're the last one. We wanted to tell you for a while and we were playing rock, paper, scissors to see who had to do it.

But we all kept picking rock every time...

Series 1, eh? Each has 4, we have 6 Classics Teams, and 2 to 3 Cybertron teams to chose from (Armada and Energon Teams have all degraded), which makes a total of 24 to 27. 12 are already confirmed, so 12 to 15 are left. That would mean we'll get 3 more series of 4 Mini-Cons...

I work for an EE wholesale buyer, we ordered 15 cases. If wave 1 sells well we'll go for more in wave 2.

I get to buy items at cost, so these may make it into my collection, especially if we get a damaged box with damaged cards!

what? did Superboy Prime punch the good Minicons out of existence? Where's the rocket launcher, gun, and that from the Emergency Team?

All Mini-Con Team molds from Armada and Energon are confirmed degraded, meaning they can't be used anymore. So no new repaints from those teams.

Ahh, my mistake. It was the universe ten pack. Not this eight pack. I believe the teams were called the battle support minicon team and ground surveillance minicon team. Picked them up bc news of this new 8 pack.

As if K-Mart exclusives ever do anything other than sit around waiting for Christ to return.

I don't know, the Minicon 10 Pack went quick in my area. I saw it for about a week, and then gone. War for the Skies sat around until it was 75% off, to be fair.

Yeah, i think its really hit or miss with their exclusives. We still have about five 10-packs and a ton of the voyager starscream repaints.
