    That's your problem, not ours. Those existed.

    The 2007 movie line had:
    Cyber Stompin' Robots
    Cyber Slammers
    Fast Action Battlers
    A role-play helmet
    Role-play converting arm blasters
    Role-play Allspark Blasters
    T.E.C.H. (Transformers Electronic Combat Hardware)
    Robot Heroes
    Robot Replicas
    Titanium Series versions of movie characters

    Tranformers Animated had:
    Activators
    Bumper Battlers
    Power Bots

    Revenge of the Fallen had:
    Gravity Bots
    Fast Action Battlers
    RPMs - Robot Powered Machines as a dedicated sub-line with multiple price points
    Role-play helmets and blasters
    Power Bots
    Robot Heroes
    Robot Replicas

    Dark of the Moon had:
    Cyberverse as a dedicated subline with multiple price points
    Activators
    Bash Bots
    Go-Bots
    Revving Robots
    Robo Fighters

    Gimmick price points and sub-lines have been a thing ever since the 2007 movie line.

    How many Authentics sizes are there?

    We've got the Legion sized ones and the larger carded ones, which were found today in the Philippines

    So if the larger figures are carded then what are the boxed figures then seen in the purple ink pics?

    And looking at he carded photos with them, they don't match either of the carded styles above!

    Nice. That confirms that I’ll be getting one just to practice some customization and painting techniques.

    Ok, I might want this Grimlock. It has suprisingly large amount of paint for this line. Also, is sufficiently larger than Megs and Prime.

    Anybody else notice that those package images with the pink blobs are renders? The crease closest to the viewer is a drawn white line, and looking at where the shell attaches to the cardstock in the carded figure you can definitely see that it's a render. Do they normally do renders for packaging?
