    Confirmation on Shockwave is great (and hopefully a Voyager Hardshell follows).

    I will be very curious to see what is different about this line (minor-to-significant changes, like with the Classics lines, virtually no changes like most of the Movieverse stuff, minor changes with stickers and unique molds/accessories thrown in for Arms Micron). Whether microns are included will determine whether I import this line with regularlity or whether I pick and choose like I do with most Takara lines (though it wouldn't surprise me at all if campaign micron releases continue throughout the rest of this year since they still have plenty of micron molds left to cover).

    More preorders listed on front page. Wheeljack, Screamer, Soundwave and Bulk.

    Curiously enough, no Ripclaw or Lazerback yet.

    It was only a matter of time before the One-Eyed Badass with a Beastly Gun became a toy, this is awesome! I hope we get a Hardshell and a deluxe Trailblazer (he is going to be in a Kreo set and a Cyberverse figure)

    Weird that Prime will still have green windows. I wonder if the reason being is that the Star Saber will actually be painted blue instead of molded in blue? Wondering if TakaraTomy will have a battle mask head..

    So just to ask... where will Prime be on its airing schedule in Japan when these hit? I assume S2 will have finished airing by then?

    PSYCHED for Shockwave, though don't know if he'll be on my Prime Shelf or my G1 Shelf. Likely Prime, though will need to wait and see. OMG YES CHOCKWAVE!!!

    Finally. Proper confirmation of Shockwave. Now let's wait for it to turn out the Walmart listings were fake and this mold turns out to be Takara exclusive.
