No Omega yet, that's a little disapointing. Seems like every character that shows up in Animated deserves a toy (humans included). Don't really get the comment about releasing Leader/Supreme class figures in the fall.... when so many leader figures have been released in the summer. Maybe that's been true in the past, but not in the last few years. I can understand putting it on the back burner because of the movie though. There's only so much that can be done with resourses..... but if Hasbro is worried that a big Animated figure coming out alongside big movie figures would be to much on our wallets..... they shouldn't be concerned. We are rabbid and will buy everything next year. Animated season 3 + TF:ROTF will have us whiped up into a collecting fuiry.

All the answers were pretty nice and reassuring.
Glad to see animate will continue instead of Universe (during the movie at least).
It'll give my time to catch up with Universe since I've been kind of ignoring it.

So much awesome in 2009.(wonder what that cool idea of theirs is?)

I don't see what there is to be bummed about.
This is better than their normal "we have no current plans" answer.

Yeah, I kinda figured Universe would be put on hiatus to make room for movie figs, but I was REALLY hoping after last summer's....issues with keeping ANYTHING Transformer related on the shelves meant that this time they'd be prepared, guess not.

Still, at least it looks like a few exclusives will be coming out for Universe, which is good seeing as how without them I'll have nothing to buy until the line starts back up again who knows when.
My feedback

At least Animated will still be going strong.

They said "typically". Remember, Supreme Animated Prime came out in the summer time. I'd say maybe the earliest is sometime in 2010.

Wow. Waste a Supreme spot on a pegwarming, out of scale Prime when they could have done Omega...have they learned nothing from Cybertron Starscream or Supreme Cheetor? Use the Supreme class on extra large characters, not make normal sized characters way too big.

I'm still rooting for Animated Omega at some point. Maybe in scale with the Activators.
Muahahahahahaha!.... ahem.... cough.... sorry 'bout that.

Starscream was a giant for half of Galaxy Force/Cybertron. At one point he was the same size as Primus. A good reason for him to get a Supreme class toy, in my opinion.

It's also hard for a supreme class toy to "pegwarm".
