Official Images: Transformers: Age of Extinction Deluxe Wave 3

While the trailer is tempting, I absolutely despise the 1st Edition AoE Prime mold and I also have the UFO trailer for my movie Prime.

Hot Shot? Anyone thinks he look more like Tracks?

Watch as the Dinobot one is the SDCC dinobots plus Sludge

I am really looking forward for these figures. I don't care if I have to spend $50 for Bumblebee, Tracks, and Snarl. I hope I won't be disappointed with the Dinobot 5-pack. Black Knight Grimlock was something I didn't expect and was greatly disappointed with the white and brown.

wave 3? were the hell is wave 2?

Seeing all these platinum sets I'm glad I'm holding off on getting any of the deluxe figures for now. I got drift because I like blue and the evolution sets to review. I wonder if Prime with trailer is going to be like that Takara set that's supposed to hit this month.

might not be allowed to due to the Bugati rights.

You's think someone down the production line would mention that Hot Shot's face looks like it was attacked by some horrible insect. But no.

I do worry that we'll see the end of Transformers again. The movie is just barely breaking even and the exclusives (as of late) are generally for overseas markets. I mean, Optimus Prime is such a household name over in China. The toys seem to sell remarkably well.

Here? The movie's considered a dud because it's not raking in the dough, domestically and the toys? Well, the toys couldn't sell if you tried. I haven't seen this much peg and shelfwarming in a long time, quite possibly ever. All of the stores in NEOH/NWPA are just clogged with TFs. There's no room for new stuff and why would the stores order them, anyway?

I never see kids looking at Transformers anymore. In fact, I don't even see adults looking at them much anymore.

I'll import, if I have to, but I can't imagine the lines are doing too well, especially if the movie isn't. Here's to hoping the 20th anniversary of Beast Wars and the upcoming Prime sequel breathe some life into it all.

*sighs* Are we looking at 1988 (and beyond) all over again? Because we're not going to get another G2, we're not going to get another Beast Wars. I think we're pretty tapped out when it comes to ideas and how to sell it to kids to get them interested.

I find it odd that kids in China, surrounded by devices, still find time to play with toys and desire to, especially after such strenuous hours at school, while here...kids have it pretty easy and want anything digital, but not toys.

Just something that's been rattling around in my head, lately.

after one wave. the line nearly burnt out.
