    Yeah, I'd bet good money he will be one of the 40 Generation toys next year.

    I'd guess because they're mostly bad ideas and poorly fiting repaints Hasbro Asia made up themselves, and INSTEAD we're getting the 40+ Generations figures that will likely be much nicer.


    -ZacWilliam, if these had been announced for the US and not Asia people would be complaining about how terrible they were. Just cause folks can't have them easy doesn't make them worth having...

    While its mostly true for these, there are several that I wish we would get. Hopefully the online toy stores will take care of us... (I really want Megatron, Hot Spot, and Swerve... The others aren't as important to me.)

    Hmm,if not a good choice, do you have in mind a better mold in the United/Henkei series which fits the bill for Hotspot rather than the Inferno mold?? No offence pls

    I know, but I was wondering if they were Asia exclusive for now, and then sometime in the future they'll see a mass release...

    They sold the Asian market exclusives Dragstrip, Overkill, Megatron, and Optimus through Hasbro's online store, so that sort of counts.

    -Tony Lucas, wondering why you keep finishing your posts in a signature.

    I really do hope that stores other than Robotkingdom get these in stock.

    Glad I'm not the only one that asked that. He says it makes his posts "memorable"....though I would call it something else.

    I hope these become HTS Special Editions so I can grab Hot Spot & Swerve at the least and maybe Springer & Sandstorm. Powerdive & Megs have an outside chance but this all depends on them being picked up by HTS or BBTS.

    Not that I particularly want one, but Cybertronian Sunstorm (and Acid Storm for that matter) make a LOT more sense than they do as classics mold repaints IMHO.

    The leader repaints are tempting.
