    Who thinks its time for hasbro to use some of the best characters in tf history, i think its time for The rise of the primitives.

    And for you guys who dont know thats basicly all the missing season 1 2 3 characters, thats grimlock and co, thats the beast combiners and maybe some beast wars characters as hasbro kinda stiffed the fans on the anniversary.

    As for blanket statments beasts dont sell well nore do hoards of bb and there all sold now

    If you mean start incorporating the characters that were featured in the episode "Call of the Primitives", then I'd say they are slipping them in here and there. If it's a call for more Beastformers, I'd say that they are slipping them in as well. If it's a call for more Beast Wars stuff, I'd have to repost that picture from earlier this year where there were 5 Rat Traps on the same peg at a Walmart close to my Armory, and point out that this isn't a singular occurrence.

    I think you need to elaborate on this topic further....I'm not sure what the question is.

    I think he's hoping for Beasts to be the theme of Prime Wars pt. 3.

    Does this mean I should've posted a picture of the 9 voyager Whirls at my local TRU and made the same blanket statement?

    Yep, if it represents a subset of figs not selling. Rhinox was also shelfwarming, I simply don't have pics of it. The only reason Waspinator didn't was because of shitty distribution. I know several showed up at Ollie's and other outletters, so maybe someone can show some of that.

    I hope that means Legends Slugfest and Overkill. For TR Soundwave. That would be amazing, and the first non-G1 Slugfest.

    I forgot about Beastbox! I hope there is also Squalktalk. And if they combine, that would truly be glorious.
