Am extremely pleased with a highly successful hunt today, the TFU 25th Anniversary Deluxe figures (sans Cyclonus  ) have been released in Singapore mass retail!! 
Staaaaaarrrrscreeeeeeaaammmm! 
I love this guy! 
Traffic light formation, red-amber-green. 
Check out Cheetor, he is a Maximal but they gave him an Autobot logo? Lazy much, Hasbro?
EDIT: I probably should mention I bought these guys from the OG Orchard Road Branch, a departmental store in Singapore.  Sorry I threw away my receipt before remembering to take a picture
EDIT 2: UPDATE
Cyclonus spotted! Got him today at a local hobby toyshop in Singapore, this would mean he should hit mass retail in a matter of days. Some pics: 
Purple love. "Let me out!!" 
Grrrr.
I'm one happy camper this weekend.  Quote:

i do wish they'd explored more facial expression options. don't get me wrong, i'm glad that dull surprise is gone for now, but instead of dull surprise we now have snarling constipation. screamer could be smirking, cheetor grinning a jaam grin, and hound, well, i dunno, smiling maybe [aside from his team leader stint in the IDW verse, hound never really seemed like the teeth-clenching type]. Our actions speak louder than their words.
