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. |

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?) Quote:

This is better than their normal "we have no current plans" answer. http://www.tfwiki.net - I'm a pepper! Wouldn't you like to be a pepper, too?

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 |

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. |

Collection Count: um.... a lot.... meaning tons.. aka a sh*t load! | I'm still rooting for Animated Omega at some point. Maybe in scale with the Activators. Muahahahahahaha!.... ahem.... cough.... sorry 'bout that.

Use the Supreme class on extra large characters, not make normal sized characters way too big. | 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". http://www.tfwiki.net - I'm a pepper! Wouldn't you like to be a pepper, too?
