    As of the last Hasbro Q&A session... it appears to have been canceled along with the rest of the figures from this particular wave. Which sucks, because I really wanted the Laserbeak that was supposed to come with Prowl for my daughter... she just loves Soundwave and his minions!

    For real. I buy them for my daughter, but it's very fun to arrange/play with them with her. They're just so full of condensed awesome it's not even funny.

    This two pack and the Tigatron/Inferno saw limited release in Singapore last month. I'm hoping Hasbro finds some way to get them out later on.

    Dammit. I was really looking forward to having Predaking robot heroes. Guess my titanium Pred will have to do for now.

    Don't know why. There was still 3 months between the last wave and the movie stuff, that was enough for at least ONE of the cancelled waves. So it can't be the movie's fault.

    Dude that's lame! I would had definately bought Tigatron/Inferno, Prowl/Laserbeak, and Ricohet/Predaking. Maybe RID Optimus and whoever he came with.

    I hope they bring these guys back down the road.

    Don't know. It realy wasn't specified. Just one of those 'We currently have no plans to release these figures' kind of answers, but they did also add 'it's currently to early to discuss any possible releases for 2010'. So, I have hope that they may see release next year. Maybe not packaged the same way (IE: paired up with the same enemies), but possibly the individual figures repackaged or something (of course, I'd be fine with the exact same pairings too).

    The one I'm the most dissapointed in: Victory Saber vs. Deathsauras... seriously... I'd have bought him in a heart beat.

    I don't know but I think Hasbro has been confusing canceled with on hold. We saw it with some stuff for GI Joe where they said something was canceled only for them to have to go back and say sorry we meant to say it's on hold while we are focused on getting the movie line ready.

    With any luck they just said the wrong thing and maybe we will see the Robot Heroes wave once they transition away from the movie line being the main focus.

    I'm really disappointed about these. I was especially looking forward to Prowl :( 

    I really hope they release them after the Movie stuff.

    I don't collect RH. But the only the recent one I've seen is Slag and Sharkticon.
