    If they had done an Alpha Trion repaint I would pick it up. This one however is getting a big pass.

    I can post pics of mine, in a bit. I need to charge up the digital camera, and see if it'll cooperate. :)

    And the only voyager I found at Walmart today was a taped up Vector Prime missing sword, key, and minicon.

    Pass. I still think the show-accurate Voyager Starscream, released this late in the line to avoid competing with last year's Supreme, would have been a better choice. It's a far better mold.

    I think Vector Prime and Starscream were about equal. Both had their good points. That said, I've got Vector already, so I have no real need to get another one. However, if it had been that Alpha Trion repaint SMegs was talking about, I'd grab one faster than you can say "wow, that was fast!"

    I can confirm but without pics. Same friend of mine who found the BW10th TRU 2-pack found this today locally.

    Yup. Judging by what was on the shelves, the ration is 2 GF VP's, 1 Nemesis Breaker, and 1 Quickmix. Assuming it's 4 to a case. The shelves were empty yesterday, and today there was 4 GF VP's, 2 Nemesis breakers, and 2 quickmix's.

    You'd think they'd put out more Soundwaves insted of the repaint of the crappy lion.

    How does he look in person? Does the plastic actually look gold, or more tan like it looks in most of the pictures we've seen?

    Judging by the listings at Entertainment Earth, what you have seen today is Voyager Class wave 8 with 2x Vector Prime, 1x Quickmix and 1x Nemesis Breaker.

    There will also be Voyager Class wave 8 revision 1, consisting of 2x Vector Prime, 1x Quickmix and 1x Soundwave, and Voyager Class wave 8 revision 2, consisting of 1x Vector Prime, 1x Quickmix, 1x Soundwave and 1x Dark Crumplezone.

    Grrrreat. I am still looking for Camshaft. Along with GF Prime, Yellow Scrapmetal and anything else that may be new(since I have no clue what is new...).
