    I don't know if he is going to be released, but everyone who felt his window of opportunity to be released ended with Combiner Wars now just got proven wrong. So I really hope we see him soon in a beautiful shade of toy accurate brown.


    I've got two Wal-Marts in town.

    One is overflowing with Wave 1 TLK figures, the other is nearly sold out on all TLK everything.

    So I don't know what to believe.

    No they are just the wrong size and wrong gimmick.

    I've seen a lot of people on the boards gripe about armies of one-step changers polluting the pegs. I think it's agreed that THOSE motherfuckers hung on quite stubbornly.

    So questions I would have asked at SDCC:

    Why the decision to switch the Clones from the boxset, like the first two, to a 2 pack?

    Are there more boxsets to come?

    Are there more Titans Returns to come or is Slugslinger shipping as an exclusive? (apparently he isn't an exclusive)

    If so why didn't we see them here instead of POTP which is further down the line? WHEN is Power of he Primes?

    What about Scorponok, Apeface, Snapdragon, the smaller 88 Headmasters and the Autobot Targetmasters? and all the other 87/8 groups half started by TR?

    Hasbro's reply to all your questions:

    "Stay tuned."

    Really hoping the armor things on the deluxes are also new hand/foot/guns. It would be pretty cheap even for Hasbro to not include any extremities for their limb modes.

    Meanwhile the Starscream from the same slide clearly shows the ankle rocker for the foot, ala Victorion & Computron, on top of his armour

    Just sell me Cogman and, frankly, the rest of the movie line can get lost.

    So Roddy, a Pretender, Beachcomber, and one half of Dreadwing are all WAVE 1? This might be the first whole wave I buy ever. :eek:

    They'll be a few more Pretenders, Cloudburst almost for sure, at least one more Legends, two more deluxe and one Voyager.

    Surprised they didn't do a reveal of upcoming Tribute figures/packs, thought they'd make a big thing of the 10th anniversary. Maybe they're saving them for Hascon. Would love to get box sets of the 2007 Autobot and Decepticon teams.

    I mean, you don't have to put the armor on him :) . Also, it seems likely the armor/gimmick are combiner parts, so the "armor" mode is ancillary . . .
