    He is? I'm fine with it and intended to pick it up eventually, but I figured the "most sought after" title for 2.0 belonged to one of the others.

    Yeah, this is the first I'm hearing about him being the most sought after...

    I figured Thrustinator, or Chromedome and Rewind would hold that spot.

    Er, no?
    1. He's a prominent character from the most important TF story in the past ten years.
    2. He's not a Prime mold.
    3. He hasn't had a toy in forever.

    Of the six listed on BBTS, he's tied with Treadshot for the lowest price ($54.99) and he hasn't sold out (don't think he ever did, unlike Chromedome and I think Barricade early on?).

    Yes, he's a prominent character now, but he's using a mold that isn't much loved (combining ability be damned), Botcon already released a nice toy of him a few years earlier (that's better, in my opinion) and what does being or not being a Prime mold have anything to do with it? It's not stopping people from being interested in Chromedome or Barricade (or Slipstream last year). There were also people that were hoping he'd come in LSotW colors rather than the toy colors this release will see; if you want colors that replicate LSotW, you'll have to go the third party route instead via the upcoming Mech Ideas figure.

    So no, I don't think he's the most desired by a long shot.

    Sorry.

    There's 3 pics on twitter. The first you can see the sticker with the number 2 on it.

    I suppose I stand corrected. I didn't think people actually liked the Prime molds. I know my Barricade and Chromedome are going on Ebay ASAP, just like my Slipstream did last year.

    Perhaps it's worth clarifying that at least one of the "2s" visible (there are several) doesn't appear to be part of a "TFSS 2.0" bit (as it seems to be on other parts of the sticker).

    It didn't even dawn on me that they'd put the TFSS 2.0 on the sticker...

    It's easier to see on the original version as tweeted, where you can see it just a touch larger.

    It'll likely be Transmutate, if you ordered her. I had a small issue which they helped me fix the other day, but in part of the communication they told me that orders for Transmutate had began shipping.
