Strange... Perhaps they'll pop up in America?

I hope that means America is coming next... I really don't care for any of them except the Wheeljack, but I don't want to pay the $$$ for it as it is now. But if it's at my local TRU, heck yeah!

It's a BBTS exclusive in the US, guys. In other countries, exclusive assortments like this one are fair game for stores.

I've gotta say, I dig some of these figures a LOT...
We get TFPrime: Slicer, Goldbug, and Skywarp.
I'm imagining "goldbug" looking especially goldbug-y if you own a FE bumblebee instead of the PRID
anyone feel as though green knock-out homages anyone? i couldn't think of any

FE: ball joint neck is on the body, which the head attaches to.
RID: ball joint neck is on the head, which the body attaches to.

If you're considering a head-swap, the FE and RID Bumblebee's have opposing ball joint attachments between their heads and bodies.munckee wrote:We get TFPrime: Slicer, Goldbug, and Skywarp.

Can't say I care for any of them, but that's all and good. Lol. Makes it easier to keep my money where it should be - in my wallet.

Nah i just meant that if you have FE bumblebee instead of PRID, standing next to "goldbug" will make him look more like a different character since youll have: FE BB next to ur DE goldbug, instead of a PRID BB next to DE GB which would look more like hes just bumblebee in weird colors.
Having FE BB + goldbug just makes them look more like different characters is all i meant

Bingo. Plus, if I'm remembering correctly, these were commissioned by Wal*Mart and then they backed out. BBTS to the rescue.

Really? I did not know that. Typically Walmart to back out on exclusives, a habit 10 years in the making.

Well, maybe we will get luck to get the "Dark Guard Optimus Prime" into Asian dark energon package 
here is the dark energon package reviewhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDhgvSfNBXU&feature=share&list=UU1lCVPlqr_TQm6GK97R9tAg before anyone considering to pick those up in "mistake". Steady package photo at 1:48.
