    Flip Shot Bumblebee is pretty cool, he does a backflip before landing on his feet when he transforms.

    I was going to get single Shockwave anyway but it was cool to see the gimmick in action. I'm starting to think spin shots have to have their arms up all the time which disappoints me as Optimus was the only other Bot Shot I really wanted this time. I agree that if the Spin and Flip figures were other characters, I might've gone for them. MORE Bumblebee? Another Brawl? Another Ironhide? They should've just made a red repaint last series. Hoping for Soundwave and Wheeljack at some point.

    The more I look at them, the more I wish they didn't use the game's designs. They're a bit goofy and don't quite fit in with the last series. Oh well, good thing I only wanted the expressionless Optimus and Shockwave. Now, to wait for Wheeljack and Soundwave who also happen to not have a mouth.

    I can't wait for these. That new Bumblebee looks great and I've been wanting a new Mudboss for some time now. By the time this line is over, I'll have a money bin full of them and swim in them daily. Occasionally stopping when something pinches me.

    Anyone heard anything about rumors for Street date on these guys? Personally, I never even saw a Wave 5 Super Shockwave on shelves... while another TFW'er has one he's holding for me I woulda picked up a second "just to be sure".

    That Video is less than 4 Minutes long and I still didn't get to the end... It's actually shot to close to see anything anyway.

    Anyway back to the subject in hand.

    Yellow Cliffjumper deliberate or development / factory mistake with the 1st wave no one cared enough to correct ?

    surprised no one has posted the pix for the 5 sets yet....at least I haven't seen them on here. TrUs has them for $22. A bit high I think.

    Well if you'd actually watched it till the end the camera is pulled back to show the full flip action.
