Better Release Dates FTW!!!

 

I doubt this means we'll see them any sooner here in the States. Hell, I still can't find Allspark deluxes let alone Animated ones!

 

Wow, biggest news story for the UK since the latter part of Armada aired here first.

Leader Megatron - YES, I knew he'd be a leader
Leader Bulkhead - WTF? Certainly did not see that one coming, woudl explain why the weapon adorned one seen in CNN's video looked so detailed.
12" feature figure - sounds cool, I'd liek it if this were just a big nicely detailed action figure that didn't TF and just had lots of Primes (safe money says it's Prime) various gimmicks, oh and a hooge axe of justice!
Rollout and Command Prime only £50 - loads better then Ultimate Bumblebee, fingers crosses that it's cool

Universe just one month later - holy fark, finances in serious danger here!
Universe Ultra's - these are probably the eight mystery figures from Destro's info, I suspect repaints but Hasbro have already done an assload of Cybertron repaints for the movie.

Amazing piece to come home too after having to stay late at work.  

Massive thanks to you Locustreign.  

 

While I'm still crossing my fingers that this is true, the insurgence of "Premium Series" movie toys in the main line makes me think that we still aren't going to see the animated toys (with the exception of the two-pack) before Late May/ Early June.

 

according to that chart universe has deluxes voyagers and ultras. which is news to me since I thought the line was just going to be deluxes and ultras.

The Universe is going to be huge.

 

Great stuff Locustreign! This is excellent news.

 

Bloody hell, that's some amazing news - looks like I'm going to have to fork out for another display case sooner than expected!  

Great info, Locustreign!  

*awaits pix of Leader-class Bulkhead*

 

hell yeah, teh UK looks good this year AND Leader Bulky, I knew it  

 

 

If the old US-gets-things-before-the-UK adage holds true, then I'm a happy camper right now. But as mentioned above, I still want to hear official word from Hasbro...

 

My wallet is already screaming in agony because of this. I hope they do show up this soon.

 

This is exciting, hope we get these sooner, especially Universe. Just a great age to be a TF fan I tell you what.  

 

I just wish we would get some sort of official word from Hasbro soon of what to expect... like, before we already buy some characters that may end up getting bigger versions later on (ie: Bulkhead). This also now adds a potential 4th version of Animated Megatron to the mix, so it would be nice to know which version to potentially buy right away and which ones to skip.

And my fingers are crossed that we are indeed getting Voyagers in the Classics 2.0 lineup. I like Deluxes & Ultras, but there's no question that some characters will be better suited as Voyagers.

Good gawd this is going to be an expensive year. Animated, Classics 2.0, Masterpieces, Robot Heroes, Movie Premium Editions... yikes.

 

Wait, the UK's getting the Classics 2.0/Universe BEFORE the US? Lucky Brits. Guess us Yankees will have to wait a bit more.

 

Oh good. I wasn't looking forward to waiting until late summer/fall for new stuff. Providing that these release dates coincide with U.S. ones.

 

I hope that the 12" Animated figure isn't Prime.
I'm hoping for Ultra Magnus.

I'm defiantly more interest about the content of these upcoming lines then their release dates.

 

Fantastic!

As rubbish as the wait'll be, hopefully by the time they do come out I'll have moved house and be allowed to buy them!

Not that my gf makes the rules or anything... Honest

 

*Throws wallet at nearest Hasbro rep* Just take it........TAKE IT!

 

Animated Basics are new to me, thanks for the confirmation on the rest.
Don't suppose you could vaguely hint at whether the Universe Voyagers are worth a repaint haters time?  

 

forgot about the basics
