    So I own the classic Bumblebee, Starscream, and Rodimus.

    Now I'm looking at what else is coming in the future.

    Is this cliffjumper?

    And how much do you think this Devastator will be?

    Any reason these two are together?

    What do you guys think of this line so far and the future that lies ahead?

    Ebay:
    Yes, thats Cliffjumper.
    Probilly $26 to $40 for Dev.
    And For Magnus/Skywarp, two repaints that would sell.

    Line so far is great, some colors could be changed, but oh well.
    Future, my wallet allready hurts...

    a. Yes.
    b. My guess: Approx $30
    c. 'cause Skywarp will make people who don't want Magnus buy it, and vice-versa.

    In Feralstorm form...

    A) Yes it is. Aside from the Bumblebee headsculpt... awesome, huh?
    B) Dunno, not really interested in Energon repaints
    C) This is the one I wanted to answer. :)  Why? For sake of sales. That was the wrong question though. The correct one would be, "Why will this sell?" The answer to THAT one... that Skywarp repaint is nothing short of awesome. It's G1 Seekers all over again, no lie there... G1 Starscream, Thundercracker and Skywarp were all the EXACT same toy with different colors. Some people dig that. I generally don't. But this... holy crap. That's just some beautiful repainting. I plan to buy both Starscream and the 2-pack... the White/Blue Prime? It's cool. I like it. Nothing spectacular. But I think the Skywarp is just way too nice to pass up. I also plan to get the inevitable Thundercracker repaint too. It really just looks too sweet to pass up.

    Oh, and...

    D) This line just looks fantastic. OMG. I got back into TFs with Alternators, cause they looked cool, and ended up being fun to transform (for 5 minutes at a time)... then Energon hit me, and I realized how fun TFs had become... but none of the characters really struck the chord I remember G1 hitting. Classics is the best of both worlds, as far as I've seen. The engineering looks better than Cybertron toys (which I loved - they're a lot of fun), AND they're characters I know and love. I want this line to never end. And it will. And that makes me very very sad. :(
