    I guess that could also be seen as news that the UK might not get the later wave of PCC toys...

    Thats exactly what I was going to say.

    Anyone got any info on if Hasbro are going to release these toys or are they going to crap out on us again? (if so i'll import constructicons and dinobots and be done with PCC)

    The more important question is if they are going to rename the set for international release or hasbro US has revealed that they really control what the UK gets? If so are responsible for our crap wave selection and tardy releases and incomplete lines.

    I think the reason UKers can't believe they called the toy spastic is because it would be like calling it "****** with stuntedcons".

    I'd have put money on us missing stuff later on. The Constructicons/Dinobots are due late this year and it's around that point of the year and at the end of lines that stuff goes "missing". I've ordered mine already.

    Always? As in a total of twice. Or really just 1 and a half times so far. And note, the first mix'n'match repaints had 1 arm and 1 leg from each set. The Stunticons have 2 Rallybot arms and 2 Destructicon legs. So they did mix'n'match but they did not follow the same pattern. They're mixing'n'matching their mixing'n'matching! There is no formal rule and actually going away from mixing'n'matching will be a way to mix things up.

    Due to the uniqueness of the Dinobots I do expect them to keep them together for a repaint. The Constructicons might get a new commander. But also, they might not get to repaints of these molds before the TF3 line, so a repaint of the Dinobots might be a store exclusive on it's own. Or the store could have a wave with the non-mixed Dinobots and the Constructicons repaint could be mixed up with 1, 2, or 3 other previous 5-packs as well.

    I said just two from each team from a previous wave, not that they have to be the same or opposite limbs from the previous team. I'm not bothered whether we get two arms from one team and two legs from the other or one arm and one leg of each, it still counts as two from each team. And that hasn't been broken yet. It may do in future, we don't know until it is but I'm not expecting it.

    Just heard about this one, its nexus maximus all over again.


    They really need to get into the habit of googling the names, it took me 2 seconds to find a wikipedia article on the term and its connotations.

    ^ They did Google "Nexus Maximus". But they had Safe Search turned on, so they didn't get the pertinent results.
