Just to head off any possible objections, Easter lasts until May 15th, so, yes, that part of the announcement is accurate.

So, Google translates "Waspeeter" as "Waspinator" but leaves "Rattle" alone.

Didn't transmetals debut the year after? As in 1997 which would be 20 years next year.

Transmetals came out in 1998, a whole two years after Beast Wars started.
Plus, most of the original Transmetal molds were already so good that almost none of them need updating.

The only problem with the line is the ocasional GPS but mostly, flaky chrome paints. A problem that carried on to Beast Machines.

As a sort of coda to the posts from TransFes 2016 we have already shared, we have some additional images from the event, courtesy of a number of Twitter users via TFYuki's account. We get some more toys and displays, of course, but also merchandise, posters, box art collections, old toys, and people involved in the franchise too, incljding the Beast Wars Easter celebration/show. Check them out mirrored below!

Now we've got a rough idea of prices for the LG-EX figures! Next question is when and where? Were these available at this show, or are they just advertising their future release elsewhere?

Thank you for rubbing it in. I'd almost forgotten how determined Hasbro was to punish us if we like anything other than G1.
You know, as much as I've always been sick of the "true fans only buy Takara" people, Hasbro seems set on vindicating them.

I'm imaging next year at 'Hascon' the exclusives will be a Mindwipe and Skullcruncher painted like Bat Optimus and Gator Megatron.Zeedust wrote:Thank you for rubbing it in. I'd almost forgotten how determined Hasbro was to punish us if we like anything other than G1.

I know they are convention exclusives. I wanted to know if they were available at TransFest 2016, or are they to be available at a different show later? I'm expecting the latter, as there have been now solicitations yet from the likes of TFSource or BBTS, where they definitely had some last year for LG-EX Armada Megatron and RID Scourge. I don't want to miss out on Rhinox or Waspinator at the very least.

Here's my point of confusion, then. Has TransFest already happened, or is it going to take place later on? I don't know if these news snippets have been reports of the event itself, or news about what is to be expected at the event.
