    So far what I saw was that Generations is continuing. Were there any posted pics of any of the pending releases? Names? Anything?



    Not counting the three club toys. Those will be bought on sight.

    Wonder if we'll get a new wave before Comic Con or if thats when they're gonna show some new stuff. I'm only expecting one or two more waves before it's over.

    Comicon will show new Generation figures. It's just too big of an event not to show new stuff.

    I'm going on Sunday, so I'll be seeing the news before I get to see the toys on the floor. I'm hoping they don't sell out of that Prime Matrix packaging and the GI Joe Starscream before then. I think Hasbro sets a certain quantity per day right?

    I can only hope there will be a Generations Waspinator now and perhaps a better Dinobot update as well. Oh what the heck, updates on the others be great as well.

    I'm just happy that they confirmed Generations will be continuing. Also, they apparently hinted at a possible Generations Arcee, which makes me even happier. :D

    i'd love to see a new Waspinator, but the chances of them re-visiting Dinobot so soon are slim to none...

    Dinobot was fine in classics, just needed that JP paint scheme. What we need is a Masterpiece Dinobot

    As long as they wrap up Season 1-3 cast in the midst of the line, I don't care what else they put out.

    I really hope they do the dinobots some justice and any headmasters would be perfect. Generations Omega too imo :)

    Here's hoping we'll see a Deluxe Trailbreaker... I mean Trailcutter before the line is shelved.

    I'm pretty sure they revealed a bunch already in the instructions of other figures...unless those were red herrings.
