    The only problem with that is if it's going to be another season consisting of six 24 minute episodes shoehorning in BW's characters, Galvatron's group and Unicron....

    And if they'll simply have G1 Bumblebee easily killing most of'em by episode 6.

    Yeah, I often think people around here need to relax a bit with their nitpicks but those yellows REALLY aren’t anywhere near the same neighborhood.

    Fair, but why would a figure that has been scheduled to release after Earthrise since it was announced be featured in the Earthrise show? There aren't really any characters in Earthrise with direct links to Unicron. At best maybe we will get a tease at the end of the season, but he was never going to be a prominent part of the Earthrise season

    Well, he’s been on the box art, and trying to force Beastwars and Unicron/Galvatron seems a bit “busy” :(

    Yeah, the Season 3 writers are going to end up on Prozac even if there's more than six episodes by then.

    Then again, if Hasbro is smart they'll extend it with say.... A season 3, Vol. 1 BW, Vol. 2 Galvatron and Vol 3 Unicron. That way they're not just cheap cameos.

    So I was fine with the idea of Arcee being a total shell-former.
    And once I got her in hand, the backpack really doesn’t look as bad as in pics.

    However, I do have a problem with the fact that no matter how hard I try, there just isn’t enough clearance for her to roll (as cars are supposed to).

    And am I the only one who has stress marks on the tabs that hold her legs on the underside of the car?

    I want to like this toy, but I shouldn’t be worried about breaking the toy, just trying to get it to transform and actually roll.

    It's tricky getting everything to align correctly. You have to position the pink double knee joint part correctly and then tuck certain parts behind tabs. Someone here showed a pic earlier. Maybe I can make a diagram later.

    Anybody know where I can find Dirge and Ramjet for a reasonable price? They’ve skyrocketed in price on Amazon and I barely buy from anything else.

    So what's the story with wave 3? Isn't that suppose to include Bumblebee and Fasstrack? I really want those two. When are they coming out in the states?

    Happy to help :)  keep in mind that those are online dates, they could pop up in the wild before that or the dates could be pushed back
