    Seems to me like Skids is the more important twin in the film, he has a lot of attention in many toy lines.

    I am sure this has been covered before, but does anyone know when this will be released, and how much it will be?

    They should have just done movie vehicle spychangers. Then I'd be looking at this playset in a better light.
    first time seeing all the cardboard stuff.

    This is just poorly done IMHO, could have been a lot better/more interesting.

    It Kinda Predicts That
    Skids And Mudflap Will Kill Devastator.

    I'll get it.

    BTW, I am MUCH happier if
    the twins kill Devastator instead of the humans. Hell, at least they are Transformers.

    That sorta looks cool, but what are the Devastator sounds other than roar?
    And how is that green constructicon holding up the road? It looks like Long Haul, but he's the leg.

    I'm so confused.

    I'm planning on getting it ONLY because I've been looking for years for a Transformer-ish hotwheels track to display my Spychangers with, this finally fits the bill.

    Though, really, though thematically more appropriate there have been more than a few giant sharks and lava monsters over the years that actually looked like more fun.

    When I was a kid, I had the gas-station set that went with the "crash-ups" (or whatever they were called) cars. It was great, the windows on the station "broke" when you drove a car into them, and lots of other fun features. It WAS my ispo-facto TF playset for years, despite being waaaaay out of scale with everything but the minibots. How nice it would have been to have Spychangers back then.

    Oh look! Optimus & Bumblebee AGAIN!!!!!

    WTF Hasbro? I'm so sick of constantly seeing those 2 guys as if there are no other characters in the movie. :mad  Instead of it working to their advantage, it's turning me against anything related to ROTF. It's just overkill now. Okay! We get the picture, Optimus & Bee are popular, give it a rest already!!! Is it possible to get any ROTF item that doesn't have those two plastered all over it???

    apparently not.

    I had a car garage with a restaurant and a car wash set in one compact case. Matchbox may not have had lava monsters but we did manage to make better use of our imagination playing with the city sets back in the 80s.

    Your story just left me thinking of cliffjumper and brawn careening through break away walls. Seemed appropriate to have them doing that stuff on purpose..

    Well also swerve. Because he's just a bad driver.
