    Was anyone else pissed off when they said \"now you can complete your Seeker ite collection\"? Like anyone who really wanted the Amazon exclusive set actually got them before being scalped and sold back on Amazon and Ebay for 5x the retail. So getting sick of these online exclusives. No one can get them at retail unless you have $1000 in the bank and don\'t work to be on the site the second the orders go live.....

    The head on the original Hasbro release of Brainstorm wasn't Rebirth accurate either. It was based on IDW Brainstorm.

    Some complete idiot whiner on Twitter tried to say that Jazz's door number is racist.
    Sheer, mind blowing stupidity honestly.

    Well, shit. Living in Japan, I guess I'll be ordering these all from BBTS and getting them a month after everyone else--only way to guarantee the boxes get here in one piece. My "throwaway box" figures like Cyberverse come from Amazon with the cardboard beaten to hell, so yeah... I'll have to prioritize packaging this time.

    OF COURSE, it would be helpful if TakaraTomy didn't suck so much, and could just announce these simultaneously...
    Knowing them, since the Beast Wars stuff isn't coming till March, these guys probably won't come out in Japan until August at the earliest UGH.:(

    Grimlock, Jazz and maybe Kup are an absolute must buy but not Hot Rod because his character sucks

    Yeah it was all about Movie figures...The 86 Movie Figures "Wave 1". And they showed off the Bayvers Devastator, it was that lines swan song. Take the hint. ;)

    Pretty underwhelming reveal, tbh. Oh well.

    Jazz and Grimlock are probably all I’m gonna pick up.

    I hate to nitpick but Hot Rod’s colored joints/hinges are unnecessary, look awful and take away from both modes for me.

    Did anyone understand what the dude said when he meant fans would understand the 14?

    I am aware of the controversy floating around, but it seems like he was making a point to clarify. I definitely didn’t get it though.

    I mean this could be a temporary thing. Just cuz they're doing these now doesn't mean they won't pepper more bayverse figures in the future.

    That's just cuz of leaks, lol. I think if we hadn't had all these leaks the past few months then these "reveals" would've had much more of an impact.

    As usual, if it wasnt for the two hot Hasbro chicks I would feel like I wasted my time watching that s**t. Its nice to see the figures we already knew about revealed in an offical capacity. But all the leaks are on Hasbro for outsourcing cheap labor and providing listings in store computer systems. They should just scrap the tease and reveal marketing strategy and go back to the checklist system of the 1980's in every package.

    Highly doubtful. Grimlock is just one of those characters that there really isn't much to his transformation that all versions of him tend to have lots of similarities

    Yeah. What is Jazz have to do with #14? He's always been #4. I don't understand why he couldn't be #4.

    For me it's scourge hot rod and jazz.

    If grimlock has gold colors like the g1 rather then yellow I'll get.

    Blurr and kup are passes.

    wish they had redone the head masters. personally i don\'t like the titans return designs. micromaster pack is a pass. thurst and runabout i would love but they are target exclusives meaning if you don\'t live in america we as hasbro don\'t give a damn about you. all the studio series stuff is a yes, sucks that wheelie doesn\'t transform.
