| Posted on 04-08-2008 at 04:49 PM by Super_Megatron | Thanks to Spencer from Agesthreeandup.com for letting us know that the final 2 Japanese Classics figures from the upcoming assortment will be Sunstreaker and Prowl.
As previously reported D-04 is Ramjet and C-06 is Jetfire. These figures are scheduled for this September.

They're not going to be out before the Hasbro releases.
PoweredConvoy:
I imagine if we ever get a Classics/HenKei Sunstorm, it would be released by Hasbro, not Takara.

I would either like a Sunstorm, or the Rainmaker 3-pack.
It was hinted at there maybe a 'clone seeker' figurepack on that Omega Supreme head remold magazine ad.
Trailbreaker77:
Looking at the prototype photos on Hasbro's website and seeing the picture on the back of Prowl's packing. I would hope that the U.S. release has the straight light bar instead of the V shaped one shown on the figure. I would also like to see a Sunstorm but he is not hight on my repaint list. Smokescreen, Bluestreak, and a corrected Cliffjumper I would like to see first.
Johnator:
I also would love a Sunstorm Classics figure. That would be all kinds of awesome.

RubySoho:
This Prowl looks sweet. I'm getting it!
Really new so let me get this straight:
1) The US "classics" line is now called "Universe". And some are going to be released as well...classics, but also some are going to be related to the movie?
Q1: Is the movie line going to be chopped (until the next movie), or is it still going to continue?
Q2: How long is the "classics/universe" line going to continue? US and Japan.
General Tekno:
1) Not quite. They're realistic vehicles, in the vein of the movie, but they're all G1 character homages (so far) with G1 robot styles.
Q1: The movie line is going to end once the last few Premium Series repaint waves finish up (and the last few Allspark waves) - so it'll be done in a month or so. Animated is going to take over as the main toyline, and Universe as the backup line for fans of a more realistic style. The movie line will probably return in 2009 once Transformers 2 comes out.
Q2: Universe will probably go until the next movie line at least. Beyond that, who knows? As for Henkei, it's completely unknown how much longer it will go on.
Dinobot Nuva:
I honestly doubt Hasbro would ever release Sunstorm in Universe, maybe as a TFCC exclusive, or Botcon something, but not at retail.
The retaliation from Anti-botcon 07 enthusiasts alone would be enough to consume the majority of my town...
