Rabbit:
Considering there were two exclusives last year, I'm wondering if we'll see another Alternator repaint this year.
Ruination04:
Wonder if Hasbro will sell this on their website?
Dinobot Nuva:
Hmmm, how did that guy on South Park word it?
"PISSSSSS!"
SDCC exclusives are always a nightmare ;_;

grock35:
i'm happy that they are at least doing one...i just see it costing an arm, leg and possibly a kidney...which would be the down side.
Twin Twist:
Do not want

if they tell you theyd have to ban you.
Deonasis:
I want it. At least more the the Botcon set so far. Hopefully it could come to Australia in a sort-of retail way like Rodimus did last year but I won't be banking on that.
BustaJesse:
I'm down with it. Too bad I still need the Alt Nemesis Prime from awhile back as well. I hope they do another Alt figure, like Megatron.
Rodimus Major:
I hope they release it on hasbrotoyshop.com. Even though I always miss the excusives before they sell out, I can at least get it on ebay for a decent price after.

Nemesis Prime > Bizarro Purple Prime.
Optimus747:
Wow, and there most of us were thinking it was a fake.
They probably will sell this on HTS, hopefully I can get one of these.
Tman978:
I'm happy. Unlike Alt Rodimus, I could give two craps about this or Purplemus Grime. Now I dont have to check HTS.com all day and night.
Johnator:
I want one! Give it!
angeltread:
it's allspark power classics prime. can't wait for the insanity on hts in my futile attempt to get one.
Dirge121:
Can't wait to grab this on e-bay for just over retail price!
Nerdling:
If I get it it'll be for trade fodder only. I'll be in California by then so it shouldn't be a big deal.
Beastbot X:
OOo, cool. Unlike some, I never get tired of Nemesis Primes.
Lumpy:
if i can get my old boss at the comic store to pick one up for me while at SDCC then i'll get it... if not, i probably wont worry about it...though i do like the botcon bizarro prime more...
MegaMoonMan:
I'll try and get one off of HTS, if I can't no biggie. Thankfully it's not a must-have like the last two were.

PAH. My skepticism was appropriate and I do not apologize for it.
SCOURGE33:
Depending on price and if I get lucky enough I may bite at this one.Scourge (RID) is one of my all time faves.
eyeballkid:
Dont really care. I already have a red mold and a white mold.
aey103:
Since I am a sucker for Black Evil Primes I will be all over this...if I can get it off of HTS or eBay for a descent price. Although my fiancé is a huge Stargate Atlantis fan and supposedly they have a panel at SDCC, maybe she can be persuaded to fly across the country to SDCC...hmmmm?

While there were two exclusives last year including an Alt, the other one was a smaller toy and Voyagers are roughly (sp?) Alternators sized. IIRC, Alts had the same price point as Voyagers, so I'm not expecting an Alt exclusive this year ... wouldn't rule it out either.

Classics Nemesis Prime has to look perfect for me to bother... between Prime, Magnus and SG Prime, I think I'll have enough of that mold and - with the exception of Magnus - in superior decos (IMO).

MilkManX:
Oh great. Lets see what the lame line ideas Hasbro has this year. Last year was a fiasco to get Hot Rod.
shibamura_prime:
If this color scheme is legit, I dig the blue.
unicron's blues:
I'll take two.

I propose that if there's another SDCC exclusive to come, it be called 'Fiasco'. It could be a dented G1 style box with teal edging, a red window and a random broken Mcdonald's Armada figure (painted black and teal) rattling around inside.

Collectors will scream blue bloody murder but the HTS servers and phone lines will melt from the demand anyway. Ebay prices will reach an unprecedented high.

^Nice

My God my words are tasty!

dr.b:
Wow!Another Scourge repaint job,I'm so psyched.
Laser_Optimus:
Cool that it's confirmed. And I'm just guessing here for the naysayers, but those of us who've been here awhile know that the staff of TFW has access to people in the know... or at least we should realize this by now.

I guess I'll have to pick one up off of eBay as I don't have time to go to SDCC. That and it's a few more states away than I'd be willing to travel for any convention.
Yobuster:
oh man this will so clash with Botcon. Using the same mold for an exclusive.
Shin Densetsu:
LULZ Allspark blue Stealth Prime
Lord Megatron:
This is incentive for me to finish my Nemesis.
Liege Prime:
So... will Hasbrotoyshop.com be carrying this for a couple hours?

Nah, it'll go straight from 'coming soon' status to 'out of stock' status.
Cloudraker:
I want one. Or two. Real bad.

I wonder what box they plan to use. One from the movie or one from classics?
Wyvern:
Man, if I liked anywhere else I'd be pissed. Glad i live here in SD. I was already going to Comicon, this is just icing on the cake......and what icing!! Gonna try to get more than ! for trade fodder.

I would assume it's classics or universe packaging actually.
D-Compose:
Me wantie!
optimus910:
Although I see the photoshop mistakes(yes... I looked at the picture, plus, it's not that hard to tell), that doesn't make it fake or anything. We can only wait(<----I HATE THIS WORD)
Robogeek28:
Now my only question is this, how many of my organs am I gonna need to sell to buy 2 of these guys?
Liege Prime:
If this stops maybe 1 person from posting about how upset they are that they missed these on sale, then I am happy to say this-

The monday after SDCC, around 8AM PST, Rodimus went on sale on HTS. It lasted a couple hours. So, if you really want this, I suggest giving that a try.
Optimus747:
I'm going to get up early and keep refreshing the HTS page until NP goes up for sale, drop 2 in my cart, and be done with it.
Worked for Rodimus last year, so hopefully it'll work again this year.
It was kind of scary though, because it was extremely slow in confirming that my order had processed, so I didn't know if I was successful or not for a while.

Yeah, but it's OK; give it a few months after that, and it'll be back up on the HTS, all AFA graded and at a ludicrous price.
REDLINE:
I just hope they give him red eyes n' windows.

I'm not trying to "naysay" so much as was confused by the way the news was linked. The link looks like a source link, but it seems that it just goes to an affiliated page, which itself links right back to the news here. That kind of circular linkage is just confusing.
