    i personally think the way to go with the Headmaster Bot is to have it be like Softimus Prime or Slumblebee, those plushies who transform by turning them inside out.

    and i think the holorider for prowl with the sidecar would rule, as would a small Sari, unless the sidecar itself is enough-but i vote Mustache Man

    You sure that's such a good idea? Kids would fall asleep with it on their heads and suffocate.

    Yeah, but that's the whole gimmick with the character.

    I don't suppose the parents would be too amused when the coroner's report lists the cause of death as 'total ownage'.

    a kid size head master helmet could be cool, no decapitation necessary though.

    Did anyone ask about SP's size demotion or if Animated can show reruns on weekday afternoons instead of mornings?

    I knew it, Meltdown may be Oil Slick at some point. Of course its an opinion, dont anyone take it literally as fact. This is what I think, draw your own conclusions.

    It's already been stated that Oil Slick is a non-show toy.

    Oil Slick is a non-show character.

    EDIT: Beastbot X beat me to it.

    Sorry to wake up a dead thread, but I'm curious. Was Shockwave shown as an animation model, or a toy prototype? I'm guessing he was just shown as an animation model, as there haven't really been any guesses as to what size class he'll be. Personally I'm hoping for a Voyager class figure. That way I could pose him battleing Grimlock and they would, theoretically, look ok doing so. Thanks in advance for any answers I get to my question. After seeing "Garbage in, Garbage out" Wreck-Garr has made it back onto my to-get list. Would be cool to see his vacume cleaner make it into the toy's design. A toilet accesory would be cool too, but that might be pushing it a little, lol.

    From what I've read, just a picture of the animation model was shown, no toy prototype yet.

    Thanks :thumbs2: . That's what I was thinking, but I wasn't sure. It's not really confirmed, but by the sounds of it he'll be getting a toy at some point. I'm hoping it's a voyager class figure. Leader would be cooler, but it's less likely to happen, and I would be more inclined to purchas a Voyager than a Leader.
