    by the way, why did they name Sharpnel as INSECTICON on the box? does that mean there will not be kickback or bombshell?

    Devastator is a distinct possibility given the fact that Hasbro is going to make large sized Superhero Squad figures of Galactus and a Sentinel. Only bad thing is if Devastator is released, he'll probably be in a multipack with figures we already have. Oh well, doubles for the niece and nephews!

    site

    I site to stored the 5 pack and apparently it is at my local Wal-Mart, I will not be able to get it tomorrow yet though.

    Hopefully the Jazz and Thundercracker, will be on the website so I know I will get them as well.

    I will look when I go to get them though, maybe they have them now at the store.

    Also on the Website, when searching for the 5 pack they misspelled Heroes Heros and the 5pack.

    Probably because they couldn't secure the trademark for Shrapnel, but they had Insecticon to use. That doesn't mean we won't see the other Insecticons. Hasbro used the name Kickback in Energon.

    I had the option today of buying 3 Robot Heroes, or 1 deluxe and 1 RH. I went with the latter, and picked the Shock/Grim pack, since those are 2 my favorite characters from each faction. Shockwave can pull off pretty cool poses (see below). Grimlock would be nicer if his head and left hand could swivel, but he's got a great sculpt. I'll definitely get the rest of the G1 figures. As for the movie-related Heroes, I'm not too excited about them since I dont have an attachment to the characters, but at the same time the concept of the pointy insect designs being all cute and smiley IS pretty funny

    Maybe they'll go the 5-pack route and give us metallic/translucent goodness.

    There are some on EBay from the US and one other site has them. But they are selling them between $14 to $17 a piece. I was informed by one site that they had to pay alot more to get these for some reason, they were harder to obtain. Not sure I truly believe that .... I am sure they will be more accessible over some time ... just need to wait

    These make me weep with super-deformed joy. Grimlock and Shockwave are by far the best of the sets; though I have a huge soft spot for Rodimus and... (shudder) "INSECTICON" (gad) as well. If only I actually had the money to buy any. :(

    since Autobots outnumber Decepticons so much, I was making a list of the main Cons to see who would be good for this line, and came to the conclusion that Pretender Shell Bludgeon would be the most awesome candidate

    There is no Megatron/Unicron set, there IS two sets consisting of Megatron and Ultra Magnus, and Prime holding the Matrix and Unicron. So far the Prime/Unicron set is rarest.

    I'd totally like to see a Pretender Shell Bludgeon, maybe a little bigger then the other Robot Heroes so that it could fit a robot mode Bludgeon inside it.

    Some other Robot Heroes I'd like to see:

    -Sharkticons: Maybe a 2-pack, with 1 in robot mode & 1 in shark mode, or maybe 2 shark-mode ones. They could have poseable legs, or a jointed mouth so they can "bite".

    -Combiners/Gestaults: Since they're making Galactus & a Sentinel for the Marvel Super Hero Squad toys, I could see them making Devastator, Predaking, Superion, etc. in that same scale/design for Robot Heroes.

    -Ark playset: An ark playset designed in the same way as the old' Battle Beast playsets, where it's in ship mode, but opens up to reveal the interior of the ship.

    -Transformers: The Movie characters: We already have Ultra Magnus, Rodimus/Hot Rod & Unicron, let's see Galavatron, Cyclonus, Scourge, Kup, Blurr & Springer....and maybe Wheelie...maybe.

    Anyone else have any ideas for the line??

    Yeah, I too would like a complete list of all the toys coming out. So far I think there's a total of eight 2-packs, but only six of those 2-packs are readily available. If there's 9 & 10 sets...then..who's in those ones??? :confused:

    We have to contact Hasbro and tell them we want this line to continue. I got all of them minus Jazz,Thundercracker, Prime and Unicron. The 5 pack will arrive at my house tomorrow.
