    On a positive note, the Club does have some nice stuff coming up: G2 Ramjet, membership Sideburn, etc.

    I'll take it! :lol 

    Edit* I feel like a child awaiting X-mas as to who the characters are going to be and what molds will be used. The anticipation/speculation is driving me nuts! In one way it would be great to get Blackout, Slipstream etc. But on the other hand I'd love to see something unique, exotic & mindblowing kind of along the lines of Blurr as Transtech Cheetor.. maybe some of those blink and you'll miss them background characters.

    wow....I have all 6 boxed sets, but I think it stops here. I may talk myself into it, but at this point, I'm not thrilled. I'll keep an open mind until I see the character choices, though.........

    I'm guessing a lot of head remolds on Deluxe Bumblebee into characters like Hubcap, Tap-out, Bumper...

    That's the only thing I can think of.

    An Animated set just makes perfect sense. Not only is it a proper tribute to a pretty beloved series that got cut short, but its really the last chance to use those molds before Transformers: Prime toys come out later this year.

    Are they kidding about the Transformers in 3D tie in though?

    lol Where were you? TFA got just as much hate from some fans as the movie line does.

    Actually I just thought of an old digibash I never did. The Jet twins as Darkwing and Dreadwind.
    I donno. I think that'd be a cool idea.
