    If I remember correctly BBTS and HLJ.com had the first TLK Metacolle. I hope they will carry these ones too.

    I KNOW what the answer will be but ill ask anyways; why in heaven's name do they always JUST make op, bb, and megs when something new comes around? I know they're the most recognized characters, but how about a little something extra for collectors at the same price point? Like maybe a soundwave, shockwave, or even gears? Im just rambling, but I hope they make a second wave with some different characters.

    Neat and only $10 usd seems like good value for nice sculpt, die cast and paint. Perfect desk toppers.

    Fancy meeting you here. By yeah why don't they? That would be great if the could even do the entire season 1 cast. I know I'm asking for a lot there but still.

    Beat me too it but it was the first thing I thought of was the PVC's. Die cast seems overboard and doesn't look good to me compared to the plastic versions.

    im not here... *waves hands in circular motions* you didn't SEE anything... *slowly sinks down*
    I wouldn't be interested in the WHOLE season 1 cast, but definately some other bots besides the 3 shown here.

    THATS what they remind me of! Couldn't quite put my finger on it, thanks man!

    A couple of corrections to the front page :) 

    With no dissing the front page I just figured since I have experience with owning all previous ones, I’d help out. These actually have 4 points of articulation. A head swivel, 2 shoulder swivels, & a waist swivel. They don’t have removable hands. Their hands are molded in to the arm. The trigger finger is placed on the side of the gun and the other 3 fingers wrap around the handle. Their weapons are removable though. Which also gives the appearance of the pointing finger.

    I am definitely interested in these! I have been hoping for 2 years now that they would make g1 MetaColle figures, after having the MetaColle line in my collection and getting the feel of these figures.

    It be really cool if Hasbro followed suit but making these all plastic

    I’ve got some Star Wars ones and they are pretty cool. Usually the torso and legs are diecast while the arms and heads are pvc. Higher quality than the old Hasbro Titanium figures. I’m down for these.

    We should have all these guys out soon. I preordered Optimus and Megatron. I contemplated getting Bumblebee, but I'll only get him if they release the rest of the G1 crew. Plus, there's the scale issue. Metacolle figures tend to be around the same size (though I'm pretty sure this 'Bee is smaller than the other two figures), which will be a bit annoying with a possible figure of a character like G1 Jetfire. Or Devastator.

    Still, I'll be looking out for more figures in this line (Top of Wanted List - Starscream, Soundwave, Shockwave, Grimlock (Having fgures of all the Dinobots in their alt-modes would be pretty cool), Rodimus Prime, Ultra Magnus). And I hope we get an Ark, too.
