    I think all we have to go by is "Fall" in the announcement.

    I’m not sure where else to look but did anybody have a interview with the Hasbro transformers team, and did anyone ask them about Studio Series on why they were left out of the presentation.

    Bet you Windblade and Slipstream get made from the same mold, which itself will be an adaptation of Screamer's.

    I would hope Windblade would be a separate mold of her own...or, maybe I could see her as a remold of Thrust, presuming the coneheads share enough of the tetrajet design and each is subtly different in jet mode (as they should be)

    Yeah, I'm not a fan of the 'repaint a male character into a female' approach - even if they gave it a new head. At least remold the body to reflect that, even if it's subtle. And, no knees, no sale.

    I hate Acid Storm & Starscream but I'm still going to buy Slipstream if only for the sake she's one of my favorite Transformers and we don't have enough Slipstream's... just wish she'd actually get a good retail priced figure.

    And I was already sold on the Rainmakers. Hopefully they go up after Wednesday when I get paid as I need them for my Season 1 CHUG cast.

    The Seige Seeker mold is a shell-former. You could take a female robot mold and slap it under a new shell and voila.

    Gotta say, that's a twist, given the username.

    To add to that: Battle Class is Scout-sized at a Deluxe price point, Elite Class is Deluxe-sized at a Voyager price point (before you factor in the Spark Armor for both of them).

    At least the siege seeker and cyberverse seeker molds can be obtained internationally. But is the Cheetor mold only available in this exclusive version as far as we know for now? The nearest Target is like, half a world away from me.
    Can these exclusives be ordered online from Target? Do I need an account? Does Target deliver to PO boxes?

    So, we're all aware that this Cheetor figure is kind of derpy for a deluxe, right?

    July 28 is streetdate for Rainmakers and Micromaster 10 Pack.
    Slipstream was found earlier today in Michigan. The Battle Coass figures were found the other day, I dont remember where.

    I’ll be Heading to gen con this next week from Minnesota, do any targets in the Chicago area especially (or down to Indianapolis) have either the rainmakers or Micromaster 10? I need these sets. Of course if everywhere gets them in it doesn’t matter, but it doesn’t hurt to have backups just in case they aren’t everywhere on Monday.
