    Holy crap so freakin awesome... bought bought bought!

    This is what Hasbro should have been doing with their generations transformers line.

    Feels perfect classics. Just needs an autobot sticker that I'm sure reprolabels will have a few weeks after it comes out.

    I'd like to get this. May have to go back and order Grindrod now.

    What was with BBTS and the price drop and subsequent price increase on Grindrod? Wish I could have gotten the lower price.

    I kid you not...when I checked right before posting that comment, it was at the higher price! I was even on the phone with a friend as evidence of this travesty!

    EDIT: Since they changed it, I'm in!

    Dammit, I was hoping the rest would suck after the first. Looks like I'm down for at least one more. I can't say no to good real world car modes.

    Looks really great. I like that they picked a new alt mode for him, it shows they aren't being completely slavish. These bots just look so damn polished. I hope they hold up in person.

    Darn. It looks like Searchlight has a hole in the middle, going left to right. Just noticed that.

    Like seriously-he'll be standing there with their bodies littered all over the place, with Metroplex right behind him...

    lol, welcome to the club! just need BBTS to put him up

    So now the question is: which is he?

    I'd say he's either 2 or 5.

    I like the Throttlebots but the price on the Rollbar turned me off. But Searchlight is my favorite Throttlebot so I'm sold.
