    Impressive photos. I really need to get some of those stands used.

    Not Wildrider is preordered. Bring it.

    I'm gonna call it now, going off the timing and what we've seen of cover solicits - the exciting reveal is gonna be that Autobot Masquerade combiner of Optimus/Ironhide/Mirage/Sunstreaker/Prowl.

    And the announcement will be around when he premieres in the comics as I suspect he will.

    Seeing that list of retailers makes me uneasy as I ordered with Captured Prey. :(

    The listed ones aren't the only retailers getting them in, just the biggest. Kapow Toys, for one, have already gotten them in stock.

    I would like to pick up wildrider. Not much of a fan of offroad. The deadend mold is so much better. I don't know about slingshot because I like alpha bravo a lot.

    That is the official press from Hasbro. Other retailers will be selling them as well.

    That date list on the news page.

    Pretty obvious what the late May reveal is surely?

    And thus what's going to happen in the last comic on the list?

    Livio said it without saying it that he would be in the comics when I asked him...Or at least Ultra Prime will.

    I am not a super G1 guy when it comes to menasor and the 2 cars look too similar for my tastes, but that Superion with 2 pointy shoulders that's all together a different story.

    Hopefully, these won't get hoarded up and scalped, or cost voyager cost.
