EE has posted a few new preorders for Transformers stuff, confirming BBTS's Lugnut and Grimlock (both are initially shipping two per case), plus confirming Universe deluxe wave 2 as adding Galvatron and Acid Storm.
They also have listings for Universe Voyagers and the final assortments of the TF movie deluxe line (Premium BB is due around August)
Smkscrn GT:
Me want Grimlock now! Not wait 'til August.
Oh, well. Gives me more time to save up for him.
lars573:
So Acid Storm is going to be the tricky one to get. And that Grimlock and Snarl will be out at around the same time.
Lucs:
Movie figs still coming out in August! WHAT! That means Animated, which will probably sell pretty fast I'd imagine, Universe, and Movie stuff will share shelf space at the same time. That's a lot of space for TFs.
Looks like there will be plenty of Legends Red Alert, Sunstreaker and Tankor will be a bit harder to get and Acid Storm will be the hardest until maybe the next wave comes out.
Thanks for the news Steevy and Thanks Tim for adding it here in list form

fosterlager:
It could mean that some retailers will have two but not all three of the toy lines at once. Maybe Target wants to keep movie toys but Walmart doesn't. Who knows.

Who knows. | I'd imagine at least Wal-Mart will keep the Movie toys for a while, since they've got that exclusive assortment of Breakaway, Fracture, & Crankcase in Aug/Sept.
Railguard:
Just releaseing the damn Universe toys already what are you waiting for, I mean really what are you waiting for?!!!!!!
Ravenxl7:
Cool. I'm really hoping that the first wave of Animated is at my local Target tommorow. I've been itching to get some Animated toys, and there are 4 figures in the first wave alone that I currently plan to get. Starscream is the only one of the 4 that I could end up not getting, depending on if he gets a grey repaint at some point or not. I'm actually hoping for one, as I think it would look better than the blue-ish grey we're getting, though I might just wait for the Skywarp repaint anyways.

SilverDragon:
Oh good, Blitzwing isn't in the same intial wave as Grimlock. I was afraid I'd have to pass one over.

Wave 1 of the deluxes has pretty much gone out everywhere at TRU by now, I think.
Inciteful:
I wouldn't be surprised if Wal-Mart still carries all three lines heading into Fall/Christmas with the resets coming in early August. Probably see at least a row for each of the deluxes (3 pegs each for a total of 9) and probably a set for the voyagers from each Animated and Universe and a spot for the Leader class from Animated. Plus some room for the other things, Robot Heroes, et al.

Hopeing for a Leader Lugnut is pretty unrealistic, but people are still hoping for one.
REDLINE:
damnit. short packing the seeker???  that really sucks.
Zaraxion1021:
Dude............That Grimlock picture is so cool compared to the Lugnut one i saw! I want that Grimlock toy now!
