    Remember this old rumor about Alternators being allegedly cancelled?

    http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers/thread73045.html

    It just occurred to me: Maybe this had something to do with the assortment reset? Depending on the source, it might just be that someone heard that the original assortment was being discontinued (because Hasbro wanted to start a new assortment), and falsely concluded that the entire line had been cancelled.

    Thoughts?

    Sounds plausible to me.

    I think the key to that rumor was that the reasoning for the rumor was never revealed. The source could've stayed as secret, but the evidence that brought them to that conclusion would've helped to support/dispell the rumor.

    Just a thought.

    Nice detective work Mr. Nevermore. Yes, that looks very plausible and could be true. I can't believe you remember this thread though. I totally forgot about it.

    What I really want to know is the numbers for Rollbar and Richochet.
