First off, we'd like to say congratulations to Counterpunch and his wife on the purchase of a new house!

Age of Extinction toys finally hit the shelves and were gobbled up by hungry fans. First up we discuss some of our in-hand thoughts on the new Constructbots Dino Riders.



We even show some love to the new Power Attacker figures.



Okay, now it's time to dive into some real toys!

The AOE Deluxe Class Wave 1 figures are now in stores. Crosshairs, Bumblebee, Scorn, and Slug are pretty cool figures but as you'll hear, a few of us haven't even been able to get our hands on them. (thanks Comic Con!)



Scorn and Slug are the first Deluxe Class dinobots we've seen. You'll have to tune in to hear our thoughts on these guys.




Up next we talk about the new Optimus Prime and Grimlock Voyager Class / Leader Class figures.


(remember folks... pull the butt out! )

We take a break from toy talk to answer one of your listener questions!

Images of Deluxe Class Lockdown have surfaced and of course, we are full of opinions on this guy. Tune in to hear what we think.



More images of Snarl and Slog have appeared online and it seems like everyone will be getting their hands on these guys.




We also stumbled upon some images of Drift and his new alt mode. We chat about this interesting figure and a possible future use as another character...



And then this happened. Oh Hasbro, what in the world is this? *sigh* no words...no words at all.



Up next we'll discuss the new images of the new crazy colored MP-10 cross overs, EVA Masterpiece Prime and BAPE Masterpiece prime.



Million Publishing teased us with an image of 10 "upcoming" figures only to find out, its a poll for their next figure (BUMMER!). We discusses which figure we think would win through some tough elimination.



The Kreo Character Encyclopedia as finally shipping and ScottyP was lucky enough to have it in hand to discuss his thoughts.



We then dive into another one of your listener questions to answer something I think we've all asked ourselves...what's up with store distributions?

More movie trailers and TV spots are being released and we all agree that they are doing an excellent job building up the excitement for AOE.

We close out the night with some bragging rights!
