    From this ATT post by Zobovor, who works at a Wal-Mart, comes some new computer listings.

    Robot Heroes:

    SNARL VS SHARKT
    CHEETOR VS TANK
    PERCEPTOR VS HA
    TIGATRON VS INF
    RICOCHET VS PRE
    SUPER OP VS RID
    PROWL VS LASERB
    OPTMS VS JETSTR
    VCTRY SABER VS


    Universe Classic Series/25th Anniversary:

    The cross-reference for the
    Transformers Classics series (Sunstreaker, Prowl, Tankor, etc.) also
    includes a listing for DX CHEETOR, DX AUTOBOT, DX CYCLONUS, DX HOT
    SHOT, and DX STARSCREA.


    The Ultra scale assortment (the one that will have Onslaught,
    Silverbolt, and Powerglide) also had a cross-reference in the computer
    for SCOURGE and somebody called STORM C.


    Finally, I found the Transformers Universe Legends toys in the system
    (and apparently my store's got 24 of them in stock somewhere, but I
    haven't seen any of 'em yet). There were listings for Onslaught, Red
    Alert, Starscream, Hound, Autobot Jazz, Megatron, Optimus Prime,
    Bumblebee, Prowl, Beachcomber, Brawn, Cosmos, Rodimus, Wheelie, and
    Warpath.

    Marvel Crossovers

    The Transformers Crossover series had listings for MVL TRA CRSSOVR
    CPT, MVL TRA CRSSOVR HUMA, MVL TRA CRSSOVR WOLV, and MVL TRA CRSSOVR
    THIN. The first three are evidently Captain America, Human Torch, and
    Wolverine, but who's the fourth one?

    Scourge had better not be G1 Scourge... for him to be an ultra when Galvatron is just a tiny deluxe is beyond asinine.

    An Ultra Class scourge!? Interesting I wonder what Autobot could be, there are alot of autobots w/that pre fix. I also want to see what they've got planned for Starscream. Can't wait to see all those new legends, hope they're new molds. Hipefully we'll find out more about this at Comic-con.

    Speculation on other boards points to Autobot being Hound.

    I really hope that's true. It'd be nice if they used a different mini-con, though; Skywarp's integrated so much better with a jet than an indy car for a tail.

    We already have Armada Hot Shot, so maybe his Energon or Cybertron version.

    From what I can tell, these are the new items we haven't heard of yet.

    Robot Heroes:
    Snarl vs. Sharkticon
    Perceptor vs. Ha...
    Tigatron vs. Inf...
    Ricochet vs. Predacon
    Prowl vs. Laserbeak
    Optimus vs. Jetstorm
    Victory Saber vs. ?

    Universe Classics Series/25th Anniversary:

    Deluxe-
    Starscream

    Ultra-
    Scourge

    Legends
    Cosmos
    Rodimus
    Wheelie
    Warpath

    Marvel Crossovers:
    Captain America
    the Thing?

    I'm guessing that the Deluxe Autobot is supposed to be the Hound figure we're getting (makes sense). Some of the RH's sound interesting. I'm curious as to whom the new Starscream figure is. Here's hoping he's a new mold, or the 6" Titanium one in all plastic or something like that. Ultra Scourge sounds interesting. Here's hoping it's RID Scourge, though unfortunetly it's probably not. Also, some of the new Legends figures sound interesting to me, I'll more than likely add some of those to my collection.

    Edit: Just added the MC's to my little list here. Captain sounds interesting. I don't really know what the Thin will be, but the Thing is the only thing I can think of, atm.

    The 4th Crossover is the Thing I'd guess, but I don't remember seeing anything about him yet.

    Cool stuff.

    r.h. VICTORY SABRE vs. somebody? Who'd-a thunk it?
    Ricochet vs. Pre... - ??? (I have a feeling this may be a repaint-based pack.)
    "optms vs Jetstr" - I'm thinking maybe another Beast Machines pack, Optimus Primal vs. Jetstorm.
    ... I'm loving Robot heroes more and more.

    Universe listings are fun too. I'm wondering what to expect from a new Deluxe Starscream, though I would assume a repaint if not rerelease of the Classics mold is likely.

    Looks like Legends is going to be a clearinghouse for minibots, among others. Wonder if that Optimus is a new mold, or a repaint of the Cybertron or Movie molds.

    Lots to look forward to in '09, it seems.

    Oh hell yes, Scourge! Galvatron, Cyclonus and Scourge together again. I hope he comes with Fracas since Cyclonus is coming with Nightstick.

    Dissapointing that Cosmos is a legend.... was hoping for the deluxe.

    On the other hand, cool that they're throwing a bunch of minibot characters for legends!

    Yep, he was an Ultra. Half of me is now hoping this is a Scourge re-release/repaint (they could go with a different color scheme on him), while the other half hopes this is a new mold homaging RID Scourge. He could just be the cab for all I care, as I don't really care about the trailer. A new mold of him would make an awesome addition to my collection, but if it is the Cybertron Scourge mold, it'd be a new chance at repainting him into Hun-Gurrr. Another small part of me is hoping that it's a new mold homaging G1 Scourge, as I wouldn't mind that addition to my collection, but it'd be kinda odd having him next to a Deluxe Cyclonus (even worse if I was going to buy Galvatron). Here's hoping we get to know what the Ultra Scourge will be at SDCC, along with some info on some of these other figures.

    ...VICTORY SABRE? Wow, now THERE'S something I never expected to see in the Robot Heroes line.

    Also, HOORAY for BM Robot Heroes. It's about time that line got some love again.

    Another thought is that it might be an old place-holder (and the actual figure will ultimately have a different name that they were able to get the TM for). I will just be incredibly pissed if they make G1 Scourge that fucking huge, especially after the Galvatron situation.

    SNARL VS SHARKT
    Snarl vs. Sharkticon (Cool!)

    PERCEPTOR VS HA..
    This is a tricky one. There are some Micromasters that fit the bill with HA in their name but I'm not sure. I thought possibly Armada or Energon Perceptor but I'm not finding any other HA's either.

    TIGATRON VS INF
    Inferno cool for the royalty!

    RICOCHET VS PRE
    Hmm... interesting. You could be looking at Predaking which would be cool or a cross line combo with Predacon Tarantulus as he was named for the BW line.

    Could also be a reference to the TWW faction Predacons.
    SUPER OP VS RID
    Makes sense for this to be Megatron.

    PROWL VS LASERB
    Laserbeak huh? Soundwave is almost full of his cassettes!

    OPTMS VS JETSTR
    Yup. I agree gotta be a BM pack.

    VCTRY SABER VS
    This is a surprise! If it's 2 new molds then we could be looking at a Victory pack. The possibilities? Liokaiser! Deathsaurus! Dinoking? Black Shadow or Blue Bacchus?
