    Man, Jazz's weapon is huge. I hope it stores in his alt mode.

    Maybe, but you’d think as solicits are going up for wave 2 they’d include the whole wave, while we know the deluxes will be in later waves. I did wonder when we only saw deluxes and voyagers for wave 2 at Toy Fair, and I’m not sure what they’d achieve by holding back on a particular size class. Remember AOE only one wave of regular leaders, so I’m wondering if the leaders will be spaced out more due to there not being as many as there are voyagers, with them trying to maintain a rough scale.

    Staff, "Discuss on the boards" link on the front page story is leading to Facebook.

    Really looking forward to seeing Brawl in person. Loved that design, and really liked the leader class from back when it first came out. Be very interesting to see how the design has evolved from there.

    Wave 2 is already up for preorder at Ages Three And Up. I feel I should get Jazz and Lockdown. But I think I should wait for more details on wave 2 deluxes.

    As in who else is in the wave, or just more details about these two? Lockdown’s already on my definite list, the rest of the deluxes I’m less excited about.

    Wasn’t he a retool of AOE Bumblebee himself? Or is it just the leg transformation is the same? I suppose it makes sense to just have a standard shell forming scheme and be done with it!

    Megatron’s alt mode still looks like it’s based on the concept art and not the actual movie model. ROTF Voyager Megatron had a more accurate representation of the movie’s alt mode. The bot mode on the other hand looks awesome.
