The folks over at BWTF.com have posted pictures of the upcoming Cybertron basics repacked under the Universe banner. These were reported to be on the way a few weeks ago, but these are the first pictures we've seen. If you're looking to complete a few spots in your Cybertron collection, you may have the opportunity to do so. These will most likely be available at a variety of discount store chains.

BTW I should warn you that deluxe Scattorshot is a brick.
I've been spoiled by modern articulation, so it was a bit of a surprise.
Truck mode is pretty cool, but the bot mode he pretty much just like G1 Bumblebee. Waves his arms and wiggles his toes.
Just a warning.

I guess it's a good thing that Spychanger Prime pic was still in that gallery. Half the people popping in here didn't seem to know it was out (and it has been on, what, three different occasions?) and now want it.
Fortunately, or unfortunately, I won't be needing any of these, but I might give Brushguard a try if I see him.

I got the Universe Optimus Prime spychanger at a dollar store a couple weeks back. I loves it.

Now you know! And knowing's half– wait, wrong board.

Of course! I remember seeing that now.
See, we learn something new at TFW every day.

Megs did get a solo release.
Clicky!

I don't remember ever seeing a first sighting report, but here's an eBay auction (with picture) for one from earlier this month.

Sorry to burst your bubble dude, but the Spychangers came out in Dollar Stores a year or two ago. I was still able to find a couple at some Dollar Generals and Family Dollars while on vacation this summer, so those stores are your best bet.

Finally! A chance for me to get the spychangers!

You know, now that you say that, it's kinda ringing a bell–but I don't remember anything about it.
Yeah, the Spychangers were $2… the Cybertron basics will probably be around $5.

I doubt they'll be $2. I'm guessing in the $4-6 range…of course that might vary from chain to chain.

Wasn't Megatron released singly on a card in Europe?

I want that Spychanger Prime too. One of the very few in the last few years I regret passing on.

I actually bought Brushguard this week at Wal-mart(Cybertron packaging though) and added him to my Universe collection. I'm looking forward to getting the rest of these, especially the Prime/Megs two-pack that has caught my eye recently. =)

@ Eriku- The Energon repacks and KB Spychanger repacks are all old, these Cybertron repacks are the new figures we haven't seen in stores yet.

Rewind
What, those are new re-releases?? When I was honeymooning in the Upper peninsula of Michigan in early July I saw those, including Arcee and insecticon, at several Family Dollar stores. I bought a spychanger Prime because I had never found one before. I guess I didn't think anything of it at the time.

Not sure if the Spychangers are going to be coming out again or not–those have been out for a loooong time.
Hope they are though, they're fun molds and you can't go wrong for $2.
