I noticed that the Toyrocket exclusives bust were removed from their website. I was worried that they were canceled so I email them to find out their status. Here is there response. Quote: Toyrocket
Hello Trailbreaker77, there were some copy right issues with the original manufacturing. The 3 exclusives have been postponed and are planned for release in February.

So those of you that Pre-ordered this set you will still get them they are just a few more months late. They should be back up for pre-order next year I guess.   |

I remember there was some hubbub back during Alternators and the TRU Commemoratives where Hasbro couldn't get the rights to call him Bluestreak anymore. | |

"The political state of transfandom in and of itself is truly worth noting from a sociological perspective, as it provides about the clearest look anyone is going to get at what it was like in Western Europe after the fall of the Roman Empire or in India prior to the establishment of the British colonial authorities...in other words, electronic feudalism."
