    It looks like the rumors are true. We are getting a Waspinator.

    Holy Crap.

    Wreck-Gar gets a fig FTW!

    Swindle? Didn't see that coming...

    Sky-warp is an obvious Starscream repaint I'd think, I'm all about that.

    Blurr and Waspinator getting figs is straight awesome too. Can't wait to see protos or pics at Botcon I'm sure...

    Interesting. Wreck-Garr and Blurr aren't surprises, but it definetly is nice to know we'll be getting a toy of WG (friend of mine is a big Weird Al fan, so I'm thinking about getting WG for him). Skywarp, Swindle, and Waspinator on the other hand are a bit surprising. I personally think Skywarp makes a very good choice, as it looked like him and Animated starscream were the two seekers in the history vid. Waspinator was rumored at, but it never got anywhere beyond that. He should be interesting to see. Swindle is really surprising. It won't have a similar asthetic, but his toy will go nicely with the Universe Onslaught that we're getting this year.

    Edit: Just saw that Wreck-Garr is getting a Voyager toy....that's really unexpected. Hopefully the last Voyager (as there is only one more spot left after this little bit of news) turns out to be Sentinel Prime. As for Thundercracker not being included. I don't have a problem with that. He was in the last show, so it's Skywarps turn. Also, imo, Starscream didn't steal T-crackers colors. Starscream is obviousley more grey than he is blue, his red is more muted, and there is no sign of any white stripes on him anywhere.

    Also, I'm the only one that thinks we're getting only Skywarp and no Thundercracker?

    You know, considering Starscream stole his colors and Thundercracker already got the movie treatment.

    I'm rather shocked that Ole Wreck-gar is listed as a Voyager

    Hate to burst some bubbles but they were asking the other actors on the show if they could do a passable Waspinator, they asked Kaye and he was hesitant to do it because it's Scott's trademark character... Problem is the show is being recorded in LA and Scott's a Toronto-based voice actor.

    Just to protect myself from being disappointed I'm going to take this with...a grain of salt(whatever that means).

    Kickback!

    Get in here and provide us with a nugget of information we can squeal over! Odds are you can give us at least ONE tantalizing hint about Swindle or Waspinator.

    They do VAs over the phone now. Justice League Unlimited did it more than once per the extras included on the DVDs.

    I hear of cross continent Voice acting all the time, and he probably wouldn't have that many episodes to do.

    edit:
    IF this is true, I'm glad to have more (hopefully) organic beast modes. It adds more verity to the toyline.

    What's all this about Waspinator being a "rumor"? Kaye out and out SAID Waspinator would be in the show at Botcon. And he also said McNeil wouldn't be voicing Waspy, but that he'd sound "familiar". The only thing that's really news with this is that we're getting a TOY of Waspinator, whereas previously we had only known he was going to be in the show.
