    Nothing new (maybe a Prime repaint). But no new characters/molds.

    Pretty disappointing not showing anything new. It's been almost a year since wave 3 hit.

    Still mad that they made Hound so rare in both releases. They should have at least made him more common in the Hot Topic neon colors, leaving the dark green one as rare.

    I'd be all over these but the blind box thing.irks me. If its gonna be blind box it should priced as such. Not $13.99 to buy possibly 2 or moreof the same toy.

    Also the fact I bought a SHOCKWAVE and it couldn't stay together at the waist and my Newbury comics don't give receipts so when I contacted loyal subjects, who I was told are really cool and will replace it, kinda were jerks to me saying without a receipt I can't get it fixed. Its not like I bought it OFF of them they manufactured it I just want it manufactured correctly. Its not like I don't have the toy ... anyways really cool line but I'm not paying $214 dollars for a case and have doubles. Let alone spending that kinda cash on them. Tfsource had them for $5 not lo.g ago

    I would love for Loyal Subjects to lose the license to Funko. Transformers Mystery Minis would be awesome, imo, and cheaper to boot (not to mention better looking... just look at the Arkham Mystery Mini series!) Wouldn't mind some G1 Pop Vinyl figures either.

    I've bought figures from all three waves and been disappointed with all of them, not to mention making necessary characters like Skywarp 1/96 when Starscream and Thundercracker are common. That's just a dick move.

    Seems like Loyal Subjects is just spinning its wheels with the license at this point.

    As much as I like them, I can't bring myself to spend $10+ on a blind boxed item. I bought a case when they were doing their black friday 2014, but I find just buying them off ebay is easier then dealing with doubles.

    It's been so long since a release I'm losing interest.

    I also agree with Roufuss making established characters rare is pretty crappy, save the rare stuff for battle damaged or diclone colored. People should have to pay big money to get a main character.

    I like these, but I would really want to see is the quality improve. I'm annoyed with how many I buy that have waists that won't hold together or arms that have brokken off while in the box. Not to mention mangled bio cards.

    I've only now seen that Malboro Wheeljack. Should've made a new head and called him Exhaust, TLS....

    I need that Shockwave tho.
