    Okay, I didn't get Ironhide or Ratchet from the first movie. Money was short, so I stuck with Prime and a few others.

    I've already got Leader Prime and Leader Megs, Sideswipe, Skids, and the Fallen. I have Starscream from the last movie (still unopened) so I kind of want more Decepticons.

    So here's what I'm wondering:

    Do I get Sideways or wait for Barricade (didn't get the first version)

    Do I get Ironhide or Ratchet (don't have either from the first film, but I really don't like their new paint schemes)

    Get Mixmaster (the only Constructicon I kind of like...though after watching reviews, they're all pretty lackluster)

    Save my last twenty-five dollars in the TF slush fund and wait and get the G1 first season set which comes out on the 16th.

    Help!

    Ratchet is one of the best movieverse toys. ROTF Starscream makes Movie1 Starscream look kind of lame in comparison. Of course, if you're short on cash, my best recommendation would be to hang onto it and not spend it at all.

    Do I get Sideways or wait for Barricade (didn't get the first version)Sideways is way better

    Do I get Ironhide or Ratchet (don't have either from the first film, but I really don't like their new paint schemes)Spend the money to find a premium Ironhide and original ratchet

    Get Mixmaster (the only Constructicon I kind of like...though after watching reviews, they're all pretty lackluster)Demolishor and rampage suck I am holding out hope for mixmaster

    Save my last twenty-five dollars in the TF slush fund and wait and get the G1 first season set which comes out on the 16th. wait for the boxset

    i agree with mega about the sideways. i dunno, i like construction vehicles so i'm digging the constructicons. even though i did get demolishor and rampage, they are alright. nothing to jump all over (although there's a sale at toysrus till 6/13 which might make them worth a purchase just to collect). again i agree with mega, all about mixmaster. i was able to order one at toysrus before they posted the out of stock.
