    Oh yeah almost forgot, I'd take Animated Blaster anyday before Classics.
    His personality just fits.


    Oh and NEVER, NEVER, Animated Tracks, I don't need a blue car with the power to fly like a butterfly.

    I think the seekers are fine as deluxes. Now, Galvatron is a whole different story.. Voyager at least. I know Hasbro thought that they had too many large tankformers, but they should've never gone with a tank alt mode in the first place.

    As much as I love Animated Blitzwing, I REALLY hope they do a classics Blitzwing down the line somewhere, as I'd quite like to have the 3 together and from the pics I've seen Animated Blitzwing does NOT fit with the other 2.

    Ultra Magnus and Grimlock are the only two animated that I think are worth owning.

    I've bought my daughter the Optimus Prime vs Megatron, Prowl, BB and Bulkhead. She loves them But I have not been very impressed by them at all.

    I would do so many things, regardless of legality, to get an Animated Tracks...

    Classics 1.0 is better than animated. But, if you compare Classics 2.0 to Animated then Animated wins easily.

    Agreed. Blitzwing was easily my favorite of the G1 triple changers, and the fact that he's the only one of the Decepticons who has yet to show up in Classics is a little disheartening. I like his Animated character, and in all honesty, I'd even take a Classics Blitzwing that used the Animated head. But I have very little love for the Animated toy. If it ain't a deluxe, and it don't fit in with Astrotrain and Octank, then it ain't what I wanna buy.

    Classics for everyone.

    Ani Grimlock > Classics Grimlock though

    Several repainted $10 toys > Several repainted $25 toys.
