    i would not be surprised if this gets whipped out as a universe line(retailer exclusive) for this next fall like the hasbro Q and A alluded too....that they were looking at a few exclusives to throw at the market during the movie line sale fest...a combiner set for next holiday season would fill a great retailer sales ad for a solid traffic generator...

    Didn't they already try to push it as a retailer (Walmart?) exclusive? I thought they could not get any takers for it, hence the reason the club stepped up.

    that was quite a while ago...now with the movie line and the traffic in sales it made...if they pitched it i bet that it would go easily onto someones shelves...last time they pitched it was i believe during or right after beast wars...not exactly Transformers heyday....

    WOW, makes me think I should not have opened mine the minute it came, transformed it, and actually played with it.... I could have kept it in the box minty fresh locked it away in a hypersealed container and waited until the day I could make a fortune.......

    NA!!!! The toy is awesome and is appreciated best when combined... I love the colors. But to those who did not preorder them, don't worry Hasbro is out to make money, they will show up again....

    Last time it was pitched was during Energon. They were meant to be a Terrorcon combiner giftset.

    id be suprised if this doesnt end up as an encore toy, well lets just say i hope it ends up as an encore toy, i really dont care for teh new colour scheme, the uber garish piranacon is more appealing to me.

    Because i am hoping we get a decent combiner reissue other than the energon repaints or those two recolored abortions called Ruination?

    I wouldn't be surprised. King Posideon was a major villian in Masterforce.

    I already had a vintage Piranaking so I bought Thunderwing and Bludgeon instead. :)

    Non member, and can't be a member since I'm outside the US using a Proxy service to buy online :wink: 

    BTW TFCC prices for nonmembers were $159.99 plus $12.17 shipping.
