    This has got to be one of the silliest rumors I've seen so far. I honestly can't see it happening at all. The individual Deluxe's probably combine. If anything I think we may see them in a three-pack. Still, much odder things have happened in the past. The page isn't loading fully for me for some reason, so I'm not sure what exactly it says (get the gist of things from the title and comments on here though).

    They cancelled Animated Arcee...a $12 toy that they knew might be a shelfwarmer. Then (if this is true) Hasbro goes ahead and makes Movie Arcee as a Supreme, a $100 toy that if shelfwarmed would be even worse. That's just frickin' silly, that would be the best example of shelfwarming in the history of forever!

    I'm sorry, where's this guy's credibility? Is the TLAMB comments section some fantastic source of pre-release information, and not just a lot of people spamming nonsense like I've been lead to believe?

    Ignoring the possibility he's just lying, I think it'd be incredibly more likely if what he saw was either a three-pack of the Deluxe bike sisters (and his certainty of the pack being at the $100 price point is unfounded) or just Supreme Combiner Devastator with Legends Arcee pack-in (the first movie line had several store-exclusive multipacks consisting of a major larger toy with something small included as an incentive).

    Also, just asking as a general question since I've never worked retail, but he said the inventory sheet says there will be a picture at a certain date. Do inventory sheets work that way? I wouldn't expect that to be something included on one. And can anyone who works at a TRU maybe confirm if they see anything similar on their inv. sheets?

    I think Hasbro has completely lost its mind.

    I don't see that happening. If there is a secret supreme toy, it's probably a green Devastator.

    I don't beleive it. Though I would really appreciate it if I didn't have to buy the individual Femmebikes. I hope it happens. I mean, the Femmebikes aren't pink as toys so it wouldn't be like having a giant pink transformer on your shelf....but seriously, how AWESOME would that be?! :D

    Supreme Arcee sounds really... strange. Big expensive fem-bot? I find that hard to believe considering Hasbro's track record with making Arcee figures.

    And, it would seem like something of a slap to the face for all the other Arcee figures they've either not made or have canceled.

    Love the "do not want" pics...

    I really don't think Hasbro would ever sell a $100 combiner Arcee. Makes no sense. A green/purple Devy would be nice. I'd buy that just for the fact that he's a green Devy... and that I'm not buying the horrible "normal" combiner. Well, a green one will be just as horrible... but green :D

    It's going to be hilarious if this "secret" toy is indeed a supreme Arcee, and if it's awesome.

    Even if it were a giftset of the three bikes combined up (assuming the deluxes combine), I doubt they could get away with it being supreme sized, ultra maybe but not supreme.

    I can believe the exclusive being Arcee - likely all 3 deluxe bikes packaged together (25-35$ set).

    Being a 'Supreme Size' like Devastator is bull.


    -edit-

    In TF1s release, Toys R Us's exclusive was a Blackout/Scorpinok set. I'll bet you that the guy is right, but read the assortment wrong - it'll just be the three Arcee bikes sold at 25-35$.

    i think its much more likely that therealeffingdeal.com website, who always seems to post messed up stuff only to be corrected by gianteffingrobots.com, is talking about a value pack-all 3 Biker Bots in one packaging, something i think we heard rumors about not too long ago. though im betting that instead of them all being in their nearly identical Bike modes, or their freaky wheelbot seperate Robot modes, it will be packaged in combined form. which lead the guy to believe that the 3 toys combined to make Arcee are a supreme class figure, when its really not. just my :2c

    LOL if this is true.

    Cancel the Arcee that some people actually want and put this out?

    That said, I don't think this is true.

    I also thought the supreme arcee was ridiculous
