    Yeah Thundercrackers gonna be a regular retail release and if I remember the rumors (and of course if they stick true) it was Skywarp was exclusive to Walmart, Sunstorm was exclusive to either Entertainment Earth or BBTS and Redwing is whichever Sunstorm isn't.

    It seems to me as well, it is of course my theory that Skywarp will be released normally, after the beginning it was said that Thunderacker and Thrust are also banging exclusives, and then they turned out to be a normal part of the line.

    just got my ss bbm soundwave today. idk, I think I prefer his back 1/2 transformed. it looks less like soundwave doing yoga and more like a utilitarian law enforcement vehicle and has better weapons usage.

    2nd image is just me pretending Shockwave as an evil cybertronian Xavier... or just sunbathing, whatevs

    It's amazing how differently the blue plastic looks between these two photos.

    My Brawn/Wheeljack/Ratchet came in yesterday. These are uncommonly good deluxes with some joints that are looser than I'd like.

    These would be some all-time greats if the build tolerances were slightly better. As it stands they are amazing anyway.

    I'm seriously blown away by these designs.

    Studio Series Brawn gives me a real Starriors Thinktank vibe, and I like it (and yes, I know my Thinktank has the wrong accessories… I’ve been on the lookout for the proper grey ones:) ).

    Well, that's quite the reference, if it's intentional.

    Probably just a coincidence, but I enjoy it nonetheless! :)

    There's a rumour of SS ROTF Breakaway, a character seen only (I believe) in the games. How solid is this intel? I loved his toy and I have no idea how many hours I spent playing as him on Xbox 360.

    It’s reliable. He’s apparently being used to test whether obscure characters and Game characters sell. So if he sells well, more non screen characters are planned.

    Pretty much. Tho atm the ones rumored to be up next if he does well aren’t longarm yet (if I remember correctly). Stratosphere is one of the options apparently.

    I never played the DotM video game, so all I have to go from visually is Stratosphere's toy pics. Did he look like the toy in the game?

    Also, if they can retool SS Jetfire into X-Panse, <heresy level="moderate">I wonder if they could (p)retool SS Stratosphere... into a Legacy/CHUG Lugnut</heresy> to offset some of the development costs?

    Yeah pretty much if Breakaway sells a Leader Class DOTM Warpath might happen along with the possibility of a Stratosphere and Longarm.

    I’d also say they could build Machine Wars Hoist and Hubcap into the budget of Longarm.. (might take a bit of work but the alt mode is right)

    i don't think he even transformed in the game. iirc breakaway and two autobot generic jets have to defend him from starscream while he's carrying cargo but they fail, so the most transforming he does is into a weaponized alt mode

    I know the comics artist said his alt mode would be a hearse, but maybe a tow-truck Flatline could be retooled from that Longarm/MW Hoist & Hubcap mold too?
