    Delicious looking Trailbreaker. Love those leg-guns. Speaking of which, I demand Wave 2 to be full of MtMtE characters.

    They come with the new micro changer combiners, one red brick for every set, and I believe if thats true then for all the new beast hunter sets they will too come with a red brick

    Also I cut off the vest to the new micro changers I think they look a lot better and it doesn't effect the transformation of them either!

    Yeah, I agree. I did that to all of mine except Dirge and Rampage (since they don't really need any back kibble).

    So, what's the general consensus on the gestalts? Which one is the best? They look good and I want to get one, but in lieu of Menasor, I really have no preference.

    I would tend to favour Bruticus more because each part is unique and don't feel like simply 5 planes or 5 animals or 5 construction vehicles that are of the same colour.

    Kre-o Stunticons anyone?!?!?

    Hasbro?!?!

    I've seen custom Breakdown awhile back looked awesome, if anyone had the time they could make menesor out of prime, and for Drag strip, wildrider, n dead end just repaint the autobots?

    Sound good to me!

    24 more Microchangers! 3 new combiners! 4(?) other building sets! Who could they be?

    While I'd like their normal colors first, I could totally see Kre-O making G2 Defensor and Menasor Kreons.

    Alright, thanks for recommending Bruticus.

    He doesn't use them. He's more GEEWUN accurate without the really big ones, and as the biggest Dirge fan ever, I think he looks better that way.

    I hope I don't put a damper on anything, but are we SURE that the whole "36 Kreons to collect" doesn't mean that they're just talking about the various Kreons from the building sets lumped in with the blind-bag sets?

    I mean, I'm desperately hoping not because I love these things, but I just don't want to get my hopes up to have them crushed.

    I doubt it because it has a picture of the Microchangers and it also shows that the combiners are getting three more. But still, who knows.

    Nevermind. The numbers wouldn't make sense if that was the case. Woo! More microchangers!

    You made a HOok into a Long Haul? Did you do a vehicle mode? I'd love to see it!

    Do any of you guys know if Hasbro has announced all 36 Microchangers or just the current 12?

    My fingers are crossed for Kreon Prime Arcee, Bulkhead, Ratchet, Starscream and Breakdown.
