In a move that might surprise some, Hasbro has updated their website with product pages for Animated Voyager Thundercracker and Mudbuster Bulkhead. For those following the news lately, the only two figures to come out of the defunct Transformers Animated toy line have been Arcee and Cybertron Mode Ratchet. This fall, we will be getting two more Toys'R'Us Exclusives, Rodimus Minor and Ironhide. Will the duo of Thundercracker and Mudbuster Bulkhead be joining them as well? Check out each figure's product page below!

Thundercracker

STARSCREAM has a bad reputation for being arrogant, but his clone THUNDERCRACKER has perfected the art of being self-involved. He’s absolutely convinced that he’s the best looking, most talented, most dangerous robot ever built. He refuses to work with most other DECEPTICONS, arguing that they just make him look bad.

Mudbuster Bulkhead

Sneaking has never been one of the things at which BULKHEAD excels. He prefers to change directly into action, causing as much chaos as possible. When he discovers the CONTSTRUCTICONS up to no good at a local construction site, that’s exactly what he does. Mud and debris spray up from his wheels as he speeds into the middle of the site, ready to smash DECEPTICONS with his wrecking ball.

Great news!
Sure hope they get released soon! I prefer the US-version over the Japanese-versions any day of the week.
Who will carry these items? That is the million dollar bonus question!

Thumbs up Hasbro!

I really like that Bulkhead model over the other version thats out there, so if a repaint is headed towards US stores, i'll definitely pick it up.

Thundercracker looks great. I think I'm finally going to buy this mold.

Look nice. Be great if it were true, and we could get our hands on them.

This gives me hope for blackout, now do I go for the animated seekers, I have been thinking about skywarp, but haven't decided.

..and technically not complete either. In Animated terms, still need Ramjet and Slipstream.

...Kinda odd that we're getting these before Blackout, Wingblade Prime, and Hydrodrive Bumblebee. But at least it means Hasbro's still working on getting the rest of the Animated line out there, and I'm really happy about that.

I'll be picking these up if I see them. (Despite already having three versions of Thundercracker's mold already...)

I never got to watching the animated series yet. I will one day. But by G1 standards, having, Skywarp, Starscream, and Thundercracker is a complete set of the original 3 seekers. And Sunstorm makes a nice bonus. I see animated figures more as parodies of my favorite characters then as a collection based on a TV series. I buy only a selected few animated figures based on that.

Be prepared for a very fast and easy transformation. When I got Starscream, I was surprised. Flip these, turn those, move this... wait, I'm done? :lol:
