    There wasn't much that made me super excited. The G2 Prime trailer is awesome. Igear Huffer is great. I want to see side by side shots of both Seasprays. Overall, the news was really lacking.

    Were there any pics of Guzzle, I didn't get to see it and the search feature is still disabled.

    iGear Seaspray and Huffer
    FP Powerglide
    Amazon Unicron

    Most importantly though - TFP toys. I'm really looking forward to these and think they are going to be the best Transformers yet!

    I didn't really see anything new, did any of you? Some new [as in never seen before] cyberverse\whatever DOTM figures and that was it? No new generations, three Prime toys we've seen before and Unicron\Rodimus.

    From what we've heard:

    Looking forward to the Prime toys. Sound awesome.
    Unicron I'm partial to, unless I manage to offload my Superlink Black version soon.
    The Runabout\Runamuck combo. Trying to find a way to get both. SG Drift not that much, but ever since Blurr was released, I was wondering why hasn't hasbro repainted Drift black\gold-ish, given him Blurr's guns and sold him as Deadlock?

    The TFCC exclusives (Runamuck and Runabout). Not interested in Driftpool as he's now been known :lol 
    Unicron aswell. The 3rd party stuff doesn't interest me at all.

    For me, the Club exclusives
    Cyberverse Shockwave (that guzzle pic isn't showing to me, so if someone else can load one that'd be cool)
    iGear's Ironhide/Ratchet/Huffer/Seaspray
    FP Powerglide/G2 Trailer/Seaspray

    The rest was kind of ok for me. Prime toys don't do anything for me, so that was a pass on my interest there. Nothing new DOTM wise aside from Cyberverse and HA Leadfoot I really liked. Don't know what the Heartmaster thing is, or what it will be, looked neat, but depending on what it really is, could be one of my first passes on FP stuff

    There wasn't anything i liked it was basically same stuff i already knew. I was expecting new toys for DOTM. Like Dino, Que, Deluxe Leadfoot, more leader class stuff. All hype but in the end nothing...

    RTS/United G2 Prime Trailer
    Runabout/Runamuck
    Unicron

    In that order. Honorable mention for the 'Rage over Cybertron' TRU 3-pack. Will definitely pick this up.

    Runabout and Runamuck was the most exciting thing showed off to the people at home. Just really like the two since their Marvel comics days so a change to get them in the Classics style has left me with the feeling that I must join the club now.

    The Prime stuff was nice but after so many show accurate toys in the past I just sort of expect great things from Hasbro for the cartoon series. I think I would have been more excited if we had seen more releases. Felt more like a tease than a big reveal.

    While it's cool to hear again that Generations will continue it would have been nice to see a figure or two to have hard evidence of it.

    I don't mean to be negative but since the movie figures really aren't my thing I wanted to see some stuff that wasn't movie related to get excited about. I thought maybe Bot Con would have made up for Toy Fair being just movie stuff. Guess I'll cross my fingers for Comic Con news and pictures.

    I'm most hyped over the TFP reveals. Most especially Voyager Starscream, as I wasn't expecting them to make a larger toy for him. I'm also really surprised to hear that TFP will have a Cyberverse line of it's own. It's also really nice to know that the Voyager Optimus and Bulkhead toys are really show accurate and have their signature weapons.

    Though there were also some DotM reveals that I'm looking forward to. Air Raid sounds like he should be cool looking. Better pictures of the Target exclusive Space Case have gotten me even more hyped for him.

    Amazon Unicron was a really nice reveal, though I imagine it would have been even more exciting if we hadn't seen the pictures of him from the TF-Vault beforehand. Not sure I'll get him, but I really like his deco. Though if I can get an Armada Unicron real cheap, I'd probably settle for that as my collections big Unicron (I can always paint it up myself).

    The Amazon Unicron might as well be a Generations release.

    Oh, I forgot to mention I'm really pumped for Space Case.

    Third-Party stuff and club exclusives, mostly. The new Unicron got me excited, as well.
