    I can't believe the movie toys are still crap. Hound looks like Mr.Fantastic,The Dinobots look like they came out of G2,and Galvatron looks like a hollowformer. Hasbro must be stopped no matter the cost. Damn Right.

    Hmm, I'll wait for official pictures, but rather underwhelming so far.

    Jetfire is a pass with the whole jet folded up on his back. I hope leader Megs is less simplistic.

    Windblade's jet mode looks pretty cobbled together, but she's so mistransformed it's impossible to judge.

    G1-style movie Prime is a nice idea, but the robot mode just looks ugly to me. Disappointed if this means we won't get a voyager IDW Optimus for a while now.

    About a dozen versions of Grimlock and they all look terrible.

    And everything else is meh. Why aren't I more impressed? I really wanted to like some of this stuff. Do I just have no joy in my soul?

    Seriously, does anyone know what's up with Rattrap's head that's on display? Is that really how the final product is going to look with the nose area cut up? The paint makes it look like the head was a rushed proto that was painted, but the body looks like final product. It's really troubling me.

    Just noticed that you can see on his back kibble the sides of the car bumper/hood minus the grille and center bumper (look next to his waist):

    Hallelujah, his chest is (partly) real!

    Very happy with what I've seen so far, not sure if there will be anything else major, but I'm satisfied. :D 

    Love the Generations figures, Kre-O's, Construct-bots~ Those Hero Mashers look kinda neat. Its wonderful to get a closer look at some of the movie characters. I also can't wait to hear more about that upcoming game.

    Thanks Hasbro. ^.^

    Yeah, I was really looking forward to Arcee. But holy crap, Roadbuster looks super tight, Jetfire looks sweet ( that vac metal!), high hopes for the actual US release of Swerve, Cosmos, et al. Skybyte look ridiculously awesome. There's just so much great stuff on the horizon.

    was really hoping to see brainstorm. We all know that he has become one of the top three most popular transformers of all time,im surprised there were no pics of him.People are hyping this roadbuster alittle toomuch for my taste,but the heart wants what the heart wants.

    I just saw something in a press release about a deal to do Transformers HEXBUGS... don't know whether I should be amused or alarmed.

    Can any of our TFW Toy Fair reps try to get some info about this, also maybe if you have time swing by the Hexbug booth and see what you can find out about their new lunch-box-ish Nano habitat?

    Noticed that the MP Grimlock's box said MP03, and looks like the recent MPs, so anyone know if he is coming to the US?

    I don't know that I'm gonna read 60 pages of thread to get this answer, but... what looks like wave 5 of Microchanger blindpacks - do we have a list of names? I see Fangry and Punch, and what look like new members for the new teams, but a lot of big question marks there.

    No. Doubt there will be any more Titan class figures.
