New TF Entries @ WalMart.com

He recently stated that the Prowl and Optimus Prime Legends toys were going to be G1 versions, now pictures are up of the Animate dLegends Optimus and Prowl in Universe packaging. He's already wrong there. He's also wrong about a couple of other things he's posted, as will become quite apparent. Mark my words. And when's that Armada Overload redecoed as the Fallen going to be showing up?

Of course, he'll just claim that "plans must have changed." No, he's just making shit up. Anything he's been "right" about were guesses that weren't that hard to make in the first place.

That is because plans always will change.

An idea will usually never end up being a final concept and companys such as Hasbro will have many ideas and early concepts that were dropped for one reason or another; such as the Overload repdeco as The Fallen.

Well let's keep track of his "predictions" and we'll see how many are right.... keeping in mind that some are too obvious to count as being of any real substance (Robot Heroes "SHARKT"):

Roadbuster Ultra Magnus is a Camo repaint of TFA Magnus, Not colored like Roadbuster. Mostly flat green with dark green/brown camo patches.

Universe Overload (Armada Overload)
Vector Prime (Cybertron VP)
Leo Prime (Cybertron Leobreaker)

Alternators returning, specifically a Megatron Alternator.

G1 Legends of Prowl, Optimus Prime, Warpath, and Wheelie as new molds, with Legends Rodimus as Legends Cyb. Hotshot repaint.

Clear Plastic "Ghost" Deluxe Starscream.

Robot Heroes:
SNARL VS SHARKTICON
CHEETOR VS TANKOR
PERCEPTOR VS LONG HAUL
TIGATRON VS INFERNO
RICOCHET VS PREDACON RAMPAGE
SUPER OP VS RID MEGATRON
PROWL VS LASERBEAK
BM OPTIMUS VS JETSTORM
VICTORY SABER (STARSABER/VICTORY LEO) VS MAGMATRON (OVERLORD)

Universe Ultra Scourge from Energon Mirage.

Armada Overload into The Fallen - The Fallen will be the replacement for Nemesis Prime of the new Universe line with his own faction.

Either they are unused ideas or are still to come. Thats what I think anyway.

Some of them could be excused for being wrong that way, but his guesses as to who the Robot Heroes are are based on store computer information, which is much less likely to have been affected by a "change" in the development process.

And an Ultra Scourge out of Energon Mirage? Mirage was a Voyager...

You know. This one is very funny given that Energon Mirage was released at the Mega price point (now called Voyager) so I don't see how they're going to make an Ultra out of it.

Besides, they already did Energon Mirage in those colors... they called it Energon Dreadwing.

Oh, sorry, were you saying something? I got a little distracted by a transforming Matrix. Darn you! Another thing to add to my wish list of things I'd buy if they EXISTED


Seriously though, the burden of proof falls on the guy making the claims. Don't get angry because they didn't give you the benefit of the doubt. If plans keep changing, that still doesn't help here. While it's interesting to know what they thought about doing, but canceled, it's much more useful to know what's actually going to be released.

Roadbuster Ultra Magnus is actualy Ultra Magnus in old school Disney colors and sunglasses.

I know because I'm... uhh... Archer's wife, yeah, totally his wife.

Shroobmaster is very pretty.
