 | | | New Walmart Transformers Animated Listings | | Posted on 07-05-2008 at 08:11 PM by Sol Fury | | Courtesy of 2005 Boards Member Automaster we bring you news of more Transformers Animated toy listings that have appeared in Wal-Mart's computers! The listings back up those we had previously of a Deluxe Class Swindle, Blurr and Waspinator, plus Voyager Class Wreck Gar and Skywarp, but they also reveal the existence of two new Transformers Animated toys - in the Deluxe Class, an Arcee "Sleek Car", and in the Voyager Class Shockwave! There was also a further listing for something called "Electro Static S" which might be a part of a name of a repaint - maybe the name of the Lockdown Redeco who was shown off at Botcon? As always we will update you as soon as more news is available.

Oh you guys are mean! Where's the Swindle love?! He could kick Wreck-Gar's ass and eat Arcee meat for breakfast!
G1Wheeljack:
YES! Shockwave is Voyager class, can't wait to see pics of all these guys, will be picking most of them up.
Galaxy Convoy:
Good stuff all around. But one question *looks at the accompanying image wth the article* when the heck did Arcee already show up?

Veloxiraptor:
I fear they are going to have to make some SERIOUS compromises with Arcee, if they're going by the animation model from episode 7. Her model has no car parts except for the iconic "thrusters" on her back. She doesn't even have wheels.
Here's hoping they have an Earth mode in store for her.

ThaConqueror:
Let's hope for piccies of all of these figures at...whatever convention's coming up next. I think it's that San Diego bizzo, but that's only an assumption.
Lazerwave:
I guess my wish came true about voyager Shockwave. Maybe wishing hard works. I wonder...

I'm definately willing to bet that Arcee will be a repaint/retool of Blurr. Blurr's vehicle mode is a lot like Arcee's, and even their robot mode is at least a tiny bit similar. She should still be awesome though. I can't wait for these and all the others.

I wish for Leader Class Lugnut | Shockwave, the character with 4 modes getting Voyager Toy =/= Lugnut getting another toy at a bigger class

I was reading this thread and I thought Omega Supreme was confirmed as a Ultra Class toy already??

He was rumored as a Supreme toy.

TrailbreakerADK:
Nice to see that they are making more toys, especially Arcee and Shockwave. Optimus Scourge:
Excellent news! I had a feeling Arcee would happen Feralstorm: Quote:
Originally Posted by shroobmaster Oh you guys are mean! Where's the Swindle love?! He could kick Wreck-Gar's ass and eat Arcee meat for breakfast! | Wouldn't he rather try to sell them something? I mean, Wreck-Gar's practically got "gullible consumer" written all over him. nsr46gamer:
electro static s? maybe it's a redeco of a transformer whose name starts with an s.... starscream, shockwave, sentinal prime?
idk, but if anything, my closest guess would be electro static soundwave. to me it seems to fit, seeing as he was made of many electronic machines or something....
at least it would sound kool.......
BigRC83:
Shockwave? Cannot wait to see pics of it.
nsr46gamer:
so out of all the transformers that appeared in the cartoon, the only ones that aren't officially announced as toys yet are:
mixmaster
scrapper
ironhide
cliffjumper
omega supreme
starscream clones
correct?
Maximo Prime:
starscream clones at the deluxe point would rock. i do not feel like funding a bunch of $20 repaints.
Sportimus:
What about Thundercracker and at least some of the clones? Aren't those planned too?
Vangelus:
I'd be surprised if further repaints of Voyager Screamer are spaced any less than 2 or 3 waves apart, myself.
knook:
So it is Waspinator?
girafeswordsman:
I think that the blue and yellow one is Wasp, while the green crazy one is Waspinator.

correct? | I think Coward Starscream/Skywarp was confirmed at Botcon,
and Big Bad Toy Store sort of confirmed Egomaniac Starscream/Thundercracker as using the activators mold.

and for TC, It would be a shame to make him an activator
MetroBoy:
Hasbro is killin me! So much plastic goodness! I might have missed it skim reading all of the posts, but did they say what the release date for these will be?
I wonder if these will be previewed at SDCC at the end of the month?
Fort Max:
Yayz, moar new toyz!
Great to finally get confirmation of an Arcee toy coming our way that is (at last) a car! I'm not much of a G1 fanboy but Arcee as an actual car is something I have always wanted, for some reason.
Swindle, Blurr, Shockwave and Wreckgar will all be must haves for me. Starscream repaints are maybes but the characters were quite fun so that could push me into getting them.
WTF is an Electro Static S, any ideas, anyone?
Omegatron1:
Wreck-Gar needs a voice chip...but it doesn't look like he'll get one at the Voyager price point. I haven't really been happy with any of the Voyagers yet. For some I reason, at twice the price, I expect twice as much...fun. But they're neither bigger nor do they have any more features than deluxes. There's about 20% more plastic, and a niftier box, but that's it.
Scourge_151:
Great news, more cracking toys to come!
microclone: Quote:

remember the whole 'they cannot possibly make transformable toys like that' (animated).
i love arguments from personal incredulity, they say so much about the person generally.
Deadend:
w0000000000t arcee! I'm ecstatic!
Now all we need is Elita-1 pre BA form. =D
Takara_destron:
Arcee AND Shockwave? Along with Swindle, Wreck-Gar, Skywarp and Waspinator this is going to be one sweet wave!

the voyagers are around twice the weight of the deluxes although they vary in each size class of course, and bulkhead is about 4.5x the weight of BA!
Jarodimus:
I'd advise a tiny bit of caution on thinking this list truly confirms all these toys. Remember the Alternators listings found in W*M computers that never happened.
I mean, yeah, pics of protos were shown for a lot of them at BotCon, so those will almost certainly happen. But Arcee, in particular, was only shown at the design stage, and was touted as a "maybe, if the show continues into a third season". I have trouble imagining it (and the toyline) NOT continuing, though. Quote:

Also, Arcee's robot mode has very little in common with the bot form for Blurr (also at BC). Quote:

Acteon:
Arcee? Sweet. Want.

Silent_Magnus:
Pictures were shown, but the general public probably won't be able to see them till comic-con.

No Constructicons? My day is ruined. 
Voyager Shockwave probably so full of win, he's dripping it all over the place. Arcee will be cool with Blurr. Now we need Kup, Wheelie, and Rodimus and we have ourselves Optimus's rival team!
I'm still waiting for confirmation of...
Show accurate Starscream
G1 Prowl (Like Tamo's)
V. Sunstorm
V. Thundercracker
V. Ramjet
V. Femscream
Leader Lugnut
Shockwave is gonna look so cool next to Megatron... Autovolt 127:
Hope they all come out by Chrsitmas espcially Swindle and Arcee.
AlanGarou:
Can anyone who was at BotCon draw us a picture of what Arcee's altmode looked like?

He's on the back of Swoop's packaging with the other two.
