    It's cool that they are pushing Alternators, but I hope Hasbro does something about the state that they are in presently. As it is, I'm starting to lose interest.

    Yes, Hasbro should make a point of posting hi-res pics of all box art. Even going as far back as G1 if possible.

    Oh yes. That's the very reason.

    Has been the reason back when the second listing for Tracks was put up for the first time, and also was the reason when Hasbro put up the infamous "Red Alert" listing which was later corrected into "Prowl".

    MC was right on the money this time-- they mentioned that Hasbro would be updating these portions of their site today, but I guess the news got buried what with the Unicron head and everything.

    Going by show continuity; Tarantulas was considered insane because of his mad cackling, Inferno was looney toons, always refering to Megatron as His Queen and Rampage killed an entier colony planet called Omincron as well as Starbase Rugby before being caught and incarcerated to be ditched in deep space during the Axalon's original mission, but wound up becoming a Predacon instead.

    I just thought about that today... From what we know, Megatron and Rampage were the only people to successfully kill anyone (although Tarantulus made a hell of an effort). I suppose the rest of the Predacons could be considered crazy then (or incredibly stupid). Don't get me wrong, I liked them... they just weren't that bright.

    That boxart displays for the new sites are a great idea! Hasbro website designers get points for that!

    'Tis very nice. It'd be nice if some Alternator bios were put up.

    NICE art on Prime and Megs there !

    Actually most of the BW art for the 10th anniversary we've seen so far was done by Marcelo Matere and colored by Dan Khanna.

    However Dan did the pencils on some of the Cybertron Deluxe figures.

    Skids' art is by far the best of the 6 displayed for the Alternators.

    So are we getting completely new molds of Primal and Megatron? They look updated and not organic.
