    Hmm, unless grimlocks re-paint looks sweet i won't bother with it like wise with soundwave, but hopefully he'll have that new minion we've been hearing about: so i might have to get it just for that.

    Arcee should be pretty sweet and voyager bumblebee... interesting. I assume its going to be small bumblebee and a big accessory.

    The former two would be nicer so that those of us who arent in the club dont have to rely on secondhand descriptions...

    But yeah wasnt expecting the new BB to be a voyager I do hope the accessory is alright so I dont feel like im buying a voyager just to get a small deluxe/basic sized toy.

    Woo-Hoo! Golf Ire Grimlock, with new 'Flaming Driver,' 'Flaming Putter' and 'Tam O' Shanter' accessories! Watch everyone's favourite T-Rex Dinobot take up the Links, and lose his temper as he shanks into every water hazard, sandtrap, and wooded rough in the entire course.

    I am fully serious in saying that this concept would interest me more than any other Grimlock, ever. Especially if he's painted in tartan patterns.

    It might have been said before, but maybe we have this "Golfire Grimlock" naming completely wrong. Maybe it's actually "Golf Ire Grimlock", and Grimmy has an new and profound distaste for the game of golf. Can you imagine Animated Grimlock on the greens stomping around and trying to stop the game? :lol

    I can honestly say that repaint animated figures have never been a problem for me in the past, they always seemed a good idea and can breathe new life to a overly mass produced figure,
    This is untill now.
    Basically al we have got new is arcee thats it,
    I mean are they gunna repaint every figure??? after soundwave and grimmy whos next?
    I know that sunstorm and purple shockwave are exclusive figs but why not make them part of the wave as well? they both seem to be really good ideas for repaints,
    I dont get the voyager BB if they are making him to fit in better then he needs to be smaller so why put a smaller fig with a completly pointless vehicle craft type thing it just seems like a waste of time and chances are it will be a diff colour sceme for BB.
    Sorry to go on like this (its late here in the uk, think ive had too much mince pies and sherry lol)
    I do hope that they have more proper new figs on the horizon and not more pointless repaints with stupid names.

    I hope Bumblebee will be the confirmed smaller one.
    Eric Siebenaler has been designing some kickass scout-classes lately so if it is, it'd probably look awesome. Voyager though? Dang, those bastards cost like 52 USD here in holland, i'd have to pay 104 dollars plus painting and sculpting supplies if i wanted a BB and a Wasp.

    Arcee is a completely new mold.
    This Bumblebee is a completely new mold.
    Soundwave comes with a new mold minion.

    Grimlock is the only one that seems to be just a plain old redeco.

    i remember seeing pictures of a repainted soundwave once as soundblaster, any chance that is what it is?

    voyager bumblebee sounds meh, but grimlock, can never have too many dinobots lol!

    maybe it will be g2 colors?

    Arg, I was too late in thinking that "Golfire Grimlock" had something to do with golf.
    It was so funny that of course someone else thought of it first.

    Acrcee and another Soundwave...sounds good enough to me.

    Now Grimlock is a maybe till we see what this Golfire is. I think I'll pass on Bumblebee again since I didn't like his Deluxe form...so I'm sure I won't like this one either.

    i just saw the "Golfire" logo on google. looks like kremzeek got hold of grimmy, and took him to the paint store too.
