    They just can't kill this line, especially with Universe/Classics 2.0 coming up soon.

    Good for those who didn't get those toys, or who want some cheap spares for custom work I guess. Though probably a nightmare for the completist!

    Excellent, I never got Scattershot when Cybertron was still airing. Might get Undermine to, although his red-repaint looks better.

    I thought the whole "Universe repackaging of toys" died some time ago.

    I just purchased an Energon Arcee and Energon Skywarp (I think) in Universe packaging at a local Family Dollar about two days ago. I also see a lot of the Micromasters in Universe packaging at Dollar General stores...

    Cybertron basic Scattorshot? Sweet! He'll make a great Warpath, IMO.

    Poo, I was hoping they'd rehash the rest of the Energon combiners

    I thought I read opinions online that said Scattorshot sucks. Or was that Cybertron Defense Scattorshot? I can't remember.

    Anyway, the only one I never picked up out of this bunch is Scattorshot, and I haven't seen him on the pegs in a long time. If I see him at a FD or DG, I'll probably make an impulse buy if he's only $5.

    I was wondering what this "TRA Optimus/Megatron" thing in the Big Lots computer system was. We'll be carrying it for $18.
