flamingunicron:
omg...Ultra Magnus repaint? Ill stick to the original if you ask me...as soon as it comes out.

Voyager overload? who could that be? I hope its not another release of the overload armada mold.
Another vector prime? Eh, i have the original...pass

Leo Prime? SWEET It better be a leobreaker repaint!
Drew Eiden:
Wow... a lot of that sounds awesome

Roadbuster Magnus huh? Sounds orange and green to me!
TriBlurr:
2...voyager priced Bumblebees???
Bumble Prime:
what could they possibly repaint vector prime into?
Paladin:
Sounds like nothing but repaints. Pass.
Peaugh:
I hope Leo Prime is Leobreaker repainted in the LioConvoy scheme they gave his legends figure.

Animated Magnus is awesome enough that I might buy that repaint unless the color scheme just absolutely sucks balls.

There's a repaint of Legends Vector Prime as Scattorshot...

Mayhaps a new recolor that's more show accurate (i.e. more silver, paint on the wings).


Also, LEO PRIME HELL YEAH!

Overload has me interested too...

shroobmaster:
Considering I've still got no Ultra Magnus, I'll wait to see what Roadbuster looks like.

Either they are the non-transformable large Bumblebee we saw at Botcon repainted to look like the activators that are coming out.

Or mis-priced Activators.

It might also be the Beast Wars 2 figure proper. The LioConvoy figure never had a domestic release, and with the push towards 25th figures, it would be a nice addition to the Beast Wars collection with Cheetor.



but it will probably be the repaint....
Omegus Prime:
If they do a proper Lio Convoy, I'd love Hasbro forever... but if they're repainting Leobreaker, I'd be pissed if it wasn't Razorclaw, the Legends version looks so good!

And if Magnus is in Powered Convoy colors, it will be the first Leader-class repaint I buy myself.
nic28:
i am on walmart.com site and i don't see those tf listed they must have took them off
Optimus Crab:
Lio Prime!
ActionMasterZod:
Repaints, repaints, repaints.
Good to know hasbro likes me to save money.

And it really seems like they are whoring out on all the kids going "OMG BUMBLEBEE" I wonder if I'll be able to find bumblebee repaint number 3433 in time for christmas.
G1Wheeljack:
Roadbuster Magnus=Magnus in Roadbuster colors(a nice homage, he does have a similar alt mode)
Leo Prime=Leobreaker in Leo Convoy colors
Vector Prime & Overload=Re-releases or repaint's of respective Unicron Trilogy molds.
Shin Densetsu:

Cartoon accurate, lots of fans complained that the hasbro version was white, while takara's was grey.

Roadbuster colors might suck on Leader Magnus...I can see why they would make an homage to Roadbuster because the shape of the alt mode is slightly similar and the name is fitting, but orange and green? Yuck.

I hope Overload is not a repaint of Armada Overload, so far all Universe toys have full articulation, and that figure lacked functional knees and elbows. Hopefully its a new Overload.

But...you have to buy them to fund future toys~!
Runamuck:
Are those Universe figures repackaged crap from other lines? Vector Prime? Leo Prime(breaker?)? I don't know.
Ravenxl7:
-Shadow Blade Megatron- No surprise there, as we've seen pictures of him already. No interest in him at all.
-Roadbuster Ultra Magnus- Interesting, I was thinking something like this might happen, though I'd honestly prefer him in Hound-ish colors.
-Cyber Speed Bumblebee- Odd, but no interest for me.
-Street Patrol Bumblebee- Same as above.
-Overload- Interesting. I had heard the mold was begining to become useless though.
-Vector Prime- I might get him, as I've begun to repaint the one I have. Would be nice to have figures for all of the original 13.
-Leo Prime- I'm actually hoping this is NOT a Leobreaker repaint. I'd much rather this be a new mold, but depending on how it looks, I still might get it if it's a repaint.
shroobmaster:


It's but this in a heartbeat!
Brawlastator:
*crosses fingers*
Please no repaints!
artiepants:
has Voyager Inferno popped up in computers yet? I'm really hoping that we aren't going to have so many Voyager redecos warming shelves that he's impossible to find...

That would look totally bad-ass, and would be a great Universe figure.
girafeswordsman:
Still no deluxe Ironhide and Cliffy? Pssh....
eriku:
Roadbuster repaint of UM?? That is the best news I've heard about Animated so far. Now I can skip the baby blue version.

Walmart.com: TRA UNIVERSE VOYAGER INFERNO: UNASSIGNED SHELF

Whoops, must have missed it the first time.
Powersa:
I'm interested in Leo Prime
Dinobot Swoop:
Leo Prime would be a nice homage and nod towards all the figures and characters that are part of TF history but never released here, and perfect for release into the Universe line. Still, I wouldn't get him, but it's a great idea, even if it's just the Leobreaker mold repainted like the legends version. Personally, I'm still holding out for a Trypticon from the full-sized Cybertron Scourge mold. Now THAT I'd buy in a heartbeat.

Himself, but taller.
artiepants:
i really hope Overload isn't the Armada mold, it wasn't all that good when it came out and it's WOEFULLY under-engineered and articulated by today's standards.

Leo Breaker as Leo Prime sounds decent, but i'd WAY rather get the Razorclaw redeco/remold ~ that looked great in the botcon comic, and it looked great on the legends mold, lets see it full size!
Beastbot X:
Interesting. Very, very interesting... I'm thinking Leo Prime, Vector Prime, and Overload might be Wal-Mart Exclusives...
Hound & Mirage:
A Roadbuster UM could be awesome. If they use colors and a scheme similar to that of the original roadbuster, i.e. deep yellow-orange, medium-dark drab green, and dark brown; appropriately arranged. But if they just throw any orange and green onto the thing in any old pattern, UM won't be able to handle anything--he'd be too busy hiding his ugly self from the rest of the Animated cast.

I sense a coming fashion disaster.
Spiderus Prime:
Leo Prime? Where BWII Galvatron and I hope its the Beast Wars 2 Mold.
Ktulu:
Let us combine all of our shaman magic and voodoo to at least make ONE of these not a mere repaint

COME ON BABY

Anyone else think this? Not a repaint, just a straight repackage. Just like Unicron.

I really hope they aren't. I no longer shop at Walmart. I think they would have put something on their website if these were their exclusives, just to boast that they're the only one's getting them, to help improve sales.

Personally I'd be fine with that. I'd buy at leat one, if not two to repaint one into Alpha Trion.
Hoolagrin:
I'm hoping that the 'Overload' is a typo for 'Overlord'.

Silent_Magnus:
I kinda hope some of those are just repackaged or "premium" versions of the old toys.
Would help me catch up without paying ebay prices.

I hope so. The mold would look great in those colours, IMO.

And all the new Universe Voyager sound awesome.
Omega Charge:
The Bumblebees are the Animated Cyber Stompers like from the movie line.

Vector Prime might be the Cybertron Mold. Not sure about Lio Prime. Maybe LeoBreaker? But he was an Ultra, right?

Nop, he's a Voyager. Though I'm still hoping Leo Prime turns out to be a new mold. Would be cool if Overload turned out to be a new mold, though for some reason I don't see that happening. I also can't really see Vector Prime getting a new mold, so he's probably just a re-release of the Cybertron toy. Though it would actually be kinda cool to see a new mold toy for him, to go along with the comic version that we'll see next year. That is if he doesn't look exactly like he did in Cybertron.

Edit: Here's hoping more Decepticons get revealed in the near future. At this rate my Autobots will be easily outnumbering my Decepticons (a ratio I try to keep even in my collection).

Leobreaker was a voyager class figure.


Edit: Doh! Beat to the punch. Damn you, Ravenx!
Metal Chaos:
I'm gonna be pissed if that's the same Vector Prime mold I JUST bought. Uber PISSED!!! I'm hoping it's a new mold or at least a different color. I wanna see what overload and leo prime look like.
MoonRacer Prime:
Wait does this mean that Wreck gar and the Arcee sleek car are no longer listed?

Nope, I don't really see how these entries would have any affect on the listings for Wreck-Gar and Arcee.

Wreck-Gar has already been made into a prototype, at the least, so he'll definetly see release. I'm also pretty confident that Arcee will too, as not many listings (like the one we saw here in) are ever wrong, though there have been a couple incidences where one or two were canceled.
