eHobby has posted a pre-order page for an exclusive repaint of the upcoming Encore 10 Omega Supreme release. The exclusive eHobby repaint will be the Guardian Robots from the Generation One cartoon. To see all of the pictures of the Guardian Robot (with a nice view of the new face), click on the image to the left.

Nice guy…. just got done checking them out… I feel like I'm in a dream…
Damn Ironhide looks good!
No photos of classics Hound, I take it?
Master Sing
Dammit *uncrosses fingers*…. well classics are cool as well
*back to waiting on encore re-issue*

i would imagine reprolabels will invent/come out with some sort of sticker set to complement this new guy as well
BuildKing
Hmmm. Looking at the pictures , I confess I like the idea of having a robot guardian: lots of potential there. Unfortunately, and it's my humble opinion, the result I see now is rather a let down.
The main colors are faithful to the character, true, but the figure looks so plain. A little more paint apps…or a new set of stickers for this version would help grandly IMO.
MagnusPrimal
That's why I listed it under 'Classics.'
Easterling Capt
its a Univers Delux figure it IS not the original Cyclonus Targetmaster
MagnusPrimal
There are also some pics around, perhaps on tformers? I followed a link to them, so I'm not sure. But you can get there from the stickied threads in the news forum!

there is a article under news and rumors about Hasbro Q & A panel…it has all the info there.
Master Sing
Are you serious?!? *crosses fingers*
Master Sing

I too am on the fence now…all the new stuff that is coming out….my wallet is already trying to hide from me
MagnusPrimal
I saw a lot that I'm excited about:
Animated Ultra Magnus and Swoop.
Classics: Silverbolt, Springer, Dirge, Blades, Cyclonus, Hound, Silverstreak, Sideswipe, Roadbuster, and Ironhide.
Titaniums: all 3. WW Prowl, Grimlock, and Skywarp.
And that's in addition to the others that I was already planning on getting, such as Animated Leader Megs and the 1st wave of the new Classic figures.
I'd rather use the $220 to pay for several of these figures, rather than the one Guardian Robot. To those that feel differently however, enjoy your Guardian!

^^^^
well this city guardian trumps that crap that they announced….personally anyway…plus the only stuff that excites me is not coming out till 2009…target master cyclonus….YES!!!!!!!!!
MagnusPrimal
I just cancelled my preorder. For $220, I know darn well I'm not going to buy it, especially after all the stuff announced for the rest of the year at botcon.
MattMoylan
wow, one of the coolest redecos I've ever seen
grock35
Well I've pre-ordered mine as well…if the bay has it a bit cheaper I might pick up a second…now with all the Universe and Animated goodness revealed…I think my wallet is going to report me for abuse :/
Easterling Capt
there is no need to panic, he will be around on ebay atleast a few months Not even that Astotrain was all that hard in the beginning it was just that ppl waited a bit to long.
I have never payed more then releseprice on any e-hobby and I dont plan on now, relax
Max-prime

unicronhq

Nightrain
