So with confirmed news that the US isn't getting breakdown what are you guys thinking about jet vehicon and unicron I think I'm gonna just order them as theredoesnt seem to be any sign of the coming to the US either
The Jet Vehicon has to be able to come up to standards, it's a retool of a released figure for crying out loud. Fingers crossed.
But it's a figure retooled with Arms Micron ports. Hasbro probably thinks kids won't know what to do with them. Kid 1 - "Durrr, y he has no gunz for to go in deez holes?" Kid 2 - "Wurst toy ever!"
And Optimus, Bumblebee, Arcee, Bulkhead, Ratchet, Car Vehicon, Megatron, Soundwave, Knockout etc had no US release because of their Micron ports too.
I honestly have no idea what'll happen with Jet Vehicon. They revealed absolutely no new Prime deluxes past Wave 5, which we already knew about anyway, but there's bound to be more in the pipeline for the future. Who says Jet Vehicon won't be one of them? I hope they fix the pink, if it does come out here-- it looks...off.
I'm confused. Who exactly confirmed that Breakdown is not coming to the US? Are you making an assumption based on his missing presence from SDCC? I believe they said in the presentation that not everything has been shown yet. There are 10 or so missing generations toys as well. I think with Prime we saw what is coming out for this year. Unless I am recalling incorrectly, all the prime figures shown had release dates from now to Oct.

While I have my doubts for the Jet Vehicon, I thoroughly believe we'll be seeing Unicron at some point, even if he's an Amazon exclusive or some shit.
Yeah it seems weird but the only show characters left that are confirmed for the US are dreadwing and skyquake
I was just thinking of that the other day. What characters are there really left to tackle? Miner Vehicon, Insecticon. Unless next season they start adding more characters, there isn't gonna be a lot left.
Basically. Barring a massive deluge of non-show characters (as much as people like to make a big deal about them, we've really only gotten a few so far), there really isn't much else for them to consider at this point besides what you said and possibly Jet Vehicon.
My bad guys, thank you for the clarification. In that case, that sucks. I hope they decide to release them stateside! I was excited for the 3 in question.
A miner Vehicon would be cool. I think Hasbro is gonna try and tie us over with the Dark Energon line, which admittedly I am very interested in.
