That's the one I want most. Not as Grimlock, though, but as Abominus fodder. Oh how I wish they'd repaint those figures more... or rather more widely release the repaints they did make...

Terrorsaur-Strafe is interesting, if just for the novelty of a BW figure getting a re-release nearly 20 years later. But of course they had to put a Bumblebee in it.

This has me hoping that they redo Windrazor as Strafe. With all the TFP Terrorcon repaints out there, I think there's a certain amount of customizing to be had in regards to what the combined form looks like. Almost replaces scramble combining, in a way.

I'm all for more TFP terrorcons repaints :D Though I've still got a long way to go before getting all them.

Getting the Slug/Stinger 2 pack might prove interesting in terms of value since you are getting a deluxe there and not a basic

Sorry, with all the crap that Hasbro has released for the AOE line, I have only bought 5 figures for my own collection. Voyager Optimus and Hound (which just feel like large deluxes), and deluxes Crossairs, Drift, and Strafe. I don't think I will be keeping Strafe either since the Dinobots were barely characters in the movie. And non of these figures felt like I got my money's worth. I haven't even seen voyager Galvatron anywhere. Just a lot of these clogging up shelves.

These were released in the UK over a week ago, maybe longer. Why are there never any news posts about when these things get released at UK retail?

It did get posted.

And remember that even though we get fans from all over the world, the site is still US-centric.

Must be good having a shop that has something more than Wave 1. Seriously, we're stuck at Wave 1 in this shithole. "Best" part is that there are NO Generations figures here.

Also, that 3-pack with Strafe Bumblebee and STinger has just been released, also as an ASDA exclusive.

The two-pack looks interesting enough. I won't be getting it though. Those Kreos look awful though.

Which 2-pack are you referring to? Also, they're not Kre-Os, they're Construct-Bots Dinobot riders.

We do get generations, they're just exclusives to toyrus and we'll be lucky to get wave two. Especially considering that the restocking of the evolution 2-packs is spotty at best.

Also, that stinger...is that a different mold then the other exclusives?

Sorry, I meant 3-pack. And I don't really know or care about what those Construct-Bots Dinobot Riders are.

Wait. Generations is Toys R Us Exclusive? Well shit. Because in this country there is only one Toys R Us. And it's pretty crap.

I know that feeling, my walmart, and I've counted, has got 8 IDW Legends Primes, 1 IDW Legends Starscream, 3 AOE RID Crosshairs, 4 AOE RID Strafes, 3 Leader class AOE Generations Prime, 6 AOE Grimlocks, 2 AOE Hounds, 5 Dino Sparkers, and 10 or so misc AOE Contruct-bots....

God I hate my walmart.

Best bet is to import at this point, that's what I'll be doing once Windblade and co get released.

Agreed.

Although, these figures are actually fairly easy to do yourself, if you ever wanted to take a dip into customizing. A micro-head paint brush, Meijer brand craft paints for .94 a bottle, spray them with a rattlecan in a nice basecoat of your choice, and

3 pack Stinger and single pack Stinger are (slightly different) Knockout repaints, Slug 2 pack Stinger is a repaint of ROTF Sideways.
