I remember reading that Jolt was a late addition to the ROTF roster and that his deluxe toy would be coming later than the other main cast members'. Is that because he was a late addition and the FAB was easier to design and produce? What are your thoughts about this? If this has been discussed before, feel free to lock this thread. Quote: |

News Credits: 1 | As long as Iget mainline figs of the whoel cast at SOME point, I don't mind any delay. But I do believe that his Deluxe may come later just because they will have already made plenty of deluxes and still need to finish designing his.

#4 | | Banned Join Date: Apr 2008 Posts: 2,658 Location: NWPA Collection Count: 200+ | I was wondering where his figure was. (Besides the FAB.)
That makes a bit more sense to me now.
But seriously, out of all of the cars they could've picked to add to the roster...the Volt? I'm normally not a car enthusiast (basically, if it gets me to point b and back, I'm good.) but this is Transformers and it's full of muscle cars, expensive vehicles you'll never be able to own, and a Chevy Volt just ain't cuttin' it for me.
Hell, I'm still surprised they had a Cobalt in the first line. (Swindle) |

I think the Volt was chosen more from a marketing standpoint than a 'Which car will kick the most ass" standpoint. Seeing as the Volt is supposed to be the car that saves Chevy, I can see why they would want to feature it in the biggest product placement event of the year to hype the Volt. So, I can live with Jolt the Volt, not just because it's catchy as hell, but I kind of like the little car   Quote: |

That's a long time between Wave 3's release of July. I could see the 3rd biker girls release date being that far ahead but wow. Color me confused.  Quote:
