Tempting, but I don't need an Optimus, much less two.

It'd be awesome if the Combaticons were indeed their normal colors.

Okay, my prediction on the Combaticons only being offered in the SDCC and Amazon sets was way wrong. I eat the pie of humble.

Okay, so Shockwave, the most popular figure among wave 1, was dropped in favor of 2 Optimi... :-?

Makes perfect sense, Hasbro.

Bot modes on these guys are fairly nice, but I'll take a toaster or rhinoceros any day over the non-specific "Cybertronian futuristic vehicle" alt mode.

Also, am I right in my recall that the SDCC version and Amazon version will both be box sets? Do we have a release date for the Amazon set?

This case breakdown is seriously missing shockwave. Disappointing, but not a total loss.

Yeah, it's a shared SDCC/Amazon.co.uk exclusive, from what I understand.

Looks like I can skip this entire wave, since I'm planning on getting the SDCC Bruty.

Nope, Amazon has the regular retail colors, SDCC is the more game-accurate repaint. Both are box sets however.

Makes perfect sense, Hasbro.


Because in reality, Optimus is more popular than Shockwave.

The character, of course. But the toy?

How many kids would want that craptastic thing over a TFP Optimus?

You must shift your thinking. You should be asking "Which toy's name would parents recognize easier?" There is a right answer to this query and here's a hint: It's not Shockwave.

I think that with a new head sculpt that Onslaught (I THINK that's Onslaught right above Prime) would make a great cybertronian Kup repaint.

They already made a Bumblebee for this line. They didn't make another one for Universe in 2008 when they had already made Classics Bumblebee in 2006.

they did remake Optimus though and isn't the new one horrible? Ah well, at least it gives us an AWESOME repaint in Ultra "take my money now" Magnus.

Not sure they'd bother to remake BB since the new game model seems identical to the old one, but it hasn't stopped them with Soundwave, and honestly, I wouldn't complain at a re-release of the first WFC Bumblebee. It looks like a nice toy, I don't have it, and it's the same design as the current IDW comics.

Since when did kids let their parents decide which toy to buy?

Is this something new? :???:
