Right as I looked at the pic on the bottom of the box I thought Lockdown and compared that pic to one of Lockdown in bot mode and they looked almost the exact same, tires under the feet, chest shape, shoulder pads, narrow body, arm and leg joints, etc.  | |

#26 | | Just Looking, Not Buying Join Date: May 2007 Posts: 829 Location: COLORADO | Looking forward to vids of the Activators as they will be the only toys from the line I will be getting (for my 3-year-old boy). But everything else is still total win.

Weird.
That's not a knock against the Aussie Toy Fair reports, mind you, just a bit odd for Hasbro to do.

Bulkhead, too. Glad to see that his... "air torpedoes" (is that what that says?) are removable.
It cracks me up that AU's cartoon debut date is 5 months after the US's, but the toys are still getting released there first. Yep... it's hilarious. Quote:

Sure wish I could say my feelings have changed as more Animated stuff has been revealed, as I really want to get on board. Unfortunately, with each new series of pictures, I'm more convinced I will be skipping the entire line. Yay for shaking off the shackles of completionism. 
However, it's good to see so many folks stoked about the line... that can only be a good thing! | Holy crap, it's ams! He's alive!
Sorry to hear you're not digging Animated. Your wallet's probably happier, though....
