    Saw these at the local Kmart. There was Prime, Megatron and Sideswipe (only took a picture of the first two). The figures are older, but the puzzles are new.
    They were $6 each, which isn't really all that bad.

    Those boxes are nice. If they're in the UK at some point, I'll get them on sale.

    The fact that they're willing to go back to the well with Robot Heroes is interesting...but yeah I would've loved to see new molds. Oh well.

    Same. How badass would it have been to get the dreads and sentinel as robot heroes!!!!

    Well, if I see it i'll be putting the Prime one in my collection, but i'm not going to go out of my way to find them.

    I saw them in the puzzle aisle and thought for a brief second that they were new molds. Sad that I was wrong, but seeing Robot Heroes again was really nice.

    What the ...

    My first thought on reading the news was: "new Robot Heroes?!" :D 

    Second: "How come the toys weren't leaked?!"

    Which got me thinking: "must be repaints." :( 

    So from :D  to :(  in three thoughts. :(

    Any robot heroes is better than no robot heroes at all.

    Not to get anyone's hopes up, but I talked to the Playskool guys at Botcon about robot heroes and they said that they were on the list of things to possibly revisit. They just need some media support behind it and I think it'll be much more successful than the first run.

    Makes me wonder if they might still release that Robot Heroes Victory Saber and Dezarus set.

    Are they repaints or repacks?

    Also, they reused the shittiest Megatron RH ever. That mold sucks balls, and has been issued twice already.
