    Very interesting case assortments. Some of them are bad, some are good. I'm glad to see that one of them will have 2x Soundwaves.

    Shortround? Oh for crying out loud :rolleyes: 

    Hmm, Repugnus. Since only one Scout really fits, I'll go out on a line and say it's a Undermine repaint. And I see no sign of the Deluxe Red Alert repaint.

    Geez, and online shops were charging $50 for GF Soundwave and he doesn't transform right... why do I fear the US version will fix that for $30 less and I'll have wasted my cash?

    Shortround sounds like a Scattorshot redeco, Repugnus might be a repaint for Undermine... neither one sounds like a new mold to me.

    And do we know if they're using Excellion as a placeholder name or if that really will be the Hot Rod-styled Hot Shot? I love the name, I would prefer it over Rodimus.

    Staggered waves indeed! The return of Dark Scorponok, Alternators waves alternating between Skids and Sunstreaker, and more... :thumbs2:

    It's my understanding that's the official, final name.

    3 or 4, something like that. Which means an in-package Excillion should be popping up anyday now. Can't wait to see what his bio is.

    Well I know it's at least 4, since 4 has Thunderblast, Brimstone and Crosswise. Just wasn't sure where/what wave 5 is.

    I imagine Repugnus is a redeco of either Undermine, like has already been said, or Wreckloose...

    Awesome, that should be a great figure if the LoC version has been any example...

    ...this mean we can repaint Cybertron Defense Hot Shot and call him Exigeyser?

    Hmm... Dark Scorponok is coming back. More proof that Hasbro is staggering the releases to lengthen Cybertron's shelf life.

    Shortround? Holy smokes, Doctor Jones! Although I'm thinking his name will actually be "Shotround" for some reason. But I agree with Omegus. It sounds like a Scattorshot repaint.

    Repugnus will probably be an Undermine repaint.

    It's good to know that the Override repaint is called Doubleclutch, rather than "Override GTS". Now the real question is Manbot or Fembot?

    Ooh, Excellion.

    If Shortround doesn't have a Cyber Key activated voice chip that says "Dr. Jones! Dr. Jones!" I will be horribly disappointed.

    Wow. Lots of new Transformers for me to buy. I hope BBTS puts them up for preorder.

    I DEFINITELY love the staggering waves. It keeps the same ones from rotting on the shelves forever, only to be replaced with... more of the same.

    Sad to see Nemesis breaker only appearing in one Wave. Oh, does anyone know what the redolored Override is supposed to look like?
