You can view the images of Animated Atomic Lugnut, Animated Activators Dirge and Cliffjumper, Universe 25th Dinobot, and several individually packaged minicons that were previously a part of the K-Mart Exclusive 12 pack released earlier this fall, including Bodyblock, Brimstone, Blight, Makeshift, Suppressor, Brimstone, and Boltflash. All of these are repaints of previously released Classics minicons. Apparently the earlier news about these single pack minicons as a rumor has been confirmed. Details are still unknown at the time though.
You can view Yishi's thread here, and if the images do not load for you, refresh a couple of times, and they should show up!
More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

Dinobot's a Pred! He's a Maximal, dammit!

He's actually both. The figure however has a allegiance change gimmick to parallel his allegiance change in the show.
so he can be both a Pred and a Maximal.
As far as the minicons go. I kind of like them. I'll likely get Boltflash, but he's definitely going to be called Micromaster Nightflight.

Great! Now I can get the ones I would of liked without having to buy a whole set with the crappier molds I don't want another version of because I already have the classics version.

Let's just say that Atomic Lugnutz isn't exactly going to fair too well in Japan.

Man, I love Minicons and Microns and Micromasters. I've got the K-mart pack though. I hope the repaint and put out the Classic Dino and Savage Animal-whatever teams too. I'd buy 'em.

Actually, Blurrz, put ANY Animated fig on the shelf and it's going to VANISH in Japan. Takara Tomy doesn't make them, so whatever retailers import is all there is. Not to mention Japanese collector are rabid completists and fans.

Add in to that, that one of the seminal Anime series was called "Mighty Atom". We know it over here as Astro-Boy.

IOW, while nuclear war, itself, is a touchy subject, they can deal with it in entertainment far easier than we can deal with our own touchy subjects.
