    I personally wouldn't mind it, but it probably won't happen outside of a retailer exclusive. Mostly I just want a red Rampage because I can't be trusted to try to repaint one myself and can't afford to get someone to do it for me.

    No, I was a little bit pissed off when Hasbro did the Premium line for 2007 Movie. Makes me feel cheated.

    a premium Optimus would be nice. but i agree with the others that the movie line has nothing else to offer, and we need some universe/ classics back on the shelves.

    I also voted no. I like the ROTF toyline and all......I'm really getting burned out on it already. I really wish they would return to Universe Classics.

    What starscream-99 said.

    Didn't they say at one of the conventions there were no plans for Premiums?

    Yes! It's a great line for collectors. Regarding Buster Prime, just the plastic on him is better than what is out now. You can't tell be they couldn't do that as part of the regular line. As far as the paint goes, that's a different story. I can see how the paint is more work or at least a substantial improvement.

    I appreciate the option of buying a redeco of the same character, but I myself would usually only buy one specific deco version of a character.

    I'm going to say no.

    The movie toys aren't my thing so I'd rather see Hasbro move on to something like Classic/Universe, some sort of hybrid figures between the Classics look and the movie look, or get in gear on toys for whatever the new cartoon will look like so we don't have the Animated problem of a new cartoon but no toys.

    I'm not sure how the shelves are other places but the local shelves are almost running over so there isn't room unless the figures move insanely well this holiday.

    Not an entire subline of Premium repaints, but some more premium-like repaints would be nice. Especially one of Voyager Megatron, though I may end up just repainting the origional one (if I can ever find one).

    I said no, but from the first movie line, the Best Buy metallic Voyager Megatron and the Japanese chromed Premium Prime were pretty stunning.

    I'd like to see ROTF Voyager Megs and ROTF Leader Prime in similar paint jobs. Buster Prime may have to do.

    What do you think of the "metallic ice" on Best Buy Megs?
    I think it totally ruins the idea of being screen-accurate.
