    Yep, same exact figures, just packaged together in two-packs. There was another one that was an Optimus Prime & Ultra Magnus two-pack.

    and the ultra and skywarp one too. Thanks raven. I just wanted to make sure before i spend 60+ bucks next month. In total i'm spending about 150-200 next month between bbts and something from FCatCH76. Then whatever else is in stores.

    No, that set isn't part of this repackaging deal. Magnus and Skywarp were never released as individual figures; that two-pack was the only way to get the figs.

    I like how the blurb says "Classics Grimlock bears a tyrannosaurus mode based upon the updated concept of the tyrannosaurus as a bipedal creature". When was the tyrannosaurus ever thought to be a quadruped? :p

    Maybe they mean the updated therapod version. Years agot hey were thought to stand more upright and then they found it's spine was more horizontal when it walked.

    Kinda daft though, given G1 Grimlock can stand either way.

    classics grimlock is much better than the henkei version...but i prefer the henkei skyfire over classics jetfire...just my opinion though, coz its more cartoon-accurate
