    The old characters will live forever!

    In reruns.

    Cause, seriously, Hasbro's already shelled out to make 52 episodes of this thing, and by the time the next 13 will have aired, much of their target audience will have turned over already. Reruns are new to kids who haven't watched them before!

    Also, they'll have a new movie in a couple years to sell toys, so Prime's days as leading toy line are numbered.

    So I'm guessing:

    Optimus - light up sword or sword slashing action
    Bulkhead - light up wrecking ball or firing wrecking ball or piston-like action wrecking ball
    BumbleBee - punching action
    Megatron - missile firing cannon
    Breakdown - slamming hammerfist action
    Starscream - light up missile or firing missile

    Surprised these aren't featuring a Beast Hunters theme, but then again these toys are usually planned a year in advance. Hmm...maybe come 2013 we'll see another series.

    Do we know the schedule for the various particular figures? I'd like to pick up Starscream for myself and the glasses HK for my wife.

    Seriously Hasbro is it really to much trouble to make a new Voyager mold for Breakdown?

    Now there's an idea. I wonder if he would fit in size-wise.

    They look cool. Would be great to display them with the previously released alt modes...

    If the toys are better it means the food is even cheaper.
