    I think they should release the entire "Original" series 6 as some sort of store exclusive like they did with the colourchanging bots then they can be consider a companion to the actual series 6 we have now with a "different theme". That they are Winners Circle still is reason enough to justify that I feel.

    failing that maybe they can release all the left over moulds in an advent calender or something like that.

    Question is, would they ship each of the 4 different 8-packs? Or just many at random?

    I’d been assuming they just ship you a full case of all 4 eight packs but I’ll let you know Wednesday

    I had another thought about the Missing Wave 6
    1stly is the new line even called Series 6 or is it called "Ruckus Rally" or new series One ?

    But what I was thinking about the missing figures is wouldn't they make a great exclusive for a store that is trying to reestablish themselves like Toys R Us / Kaybee for example. combine that with other markets and stores like the UK & Ireland Chain smyths taking them.

    I can't help but think that even if Target or Walmart didn't want them someone else might.
    It would be not unlike what happened with the colour change sets, as they disappeared.

    They must have done a lot of work on them though as they had the inlays printed for them after all.

    Also if they don't have a Series 7 ready to go in quick time then releasing the old series 6 as kinda series 6-B seems perfectly fine as they can still be series 6, it's just these as series 6 Gold Rush games and the other ones are series 6 Rukus Rally instead.

    If they don't want to do that the two Giftsets would be nice to see finding a home at least (The Toilet and the Fishtank) both of which are quite well suited to the themes of the current line anyway.

    @Max Tower
    It’s a shame that even with the Oil Slicks bringing back some of the cancelled molds, we still don’t have the skull and crossbones, eyeball, and the jewels. It’d be nice to own them someday.

    Huh interesting that Dud Spud is so red in the checklist when the toy looks nearly identical to Series 1 Spud Muffin

    Meanwhile, the Joystick is called... Joystick.

    I have a feeling the Botbots namers forgot about a couple...

    Thanks for the images, Strafe!

    And I STILL have no idea what G1000 is supposed to be because of its name. First Loadoutsky, now G1000... give little-to-no clue as to what they're supposed to be...

    At last, the fans who constantly complain modern Transformers are shitty will be vindicated.
