    I really, really, hope so. Spinister and Needlenose are very high up my CHUG wants list.

    Me too. I'd lo e the Cybertron mode Wheeljack too. He's one of my favourite characters, and the MP is pretty spot on, but it'd be great to have an interesting alternate version of him.

    (I'm still hoping for Star Convoy showing up too. It's the perfect line for him...)

    One can indeed dream.

    And with Wave 4 Legends getting listed online we might not be able to rule out a full set of Primes getting rounded out in their 4th wave.
    Thinking back now IIRC the massive leak about TOTP already hinted at Onyx being packed in with Predaking so I'm keeping fings crossed for 12 Primemaster Primes. It might just have been the plan from the start and not a curtailing?

    Twitter amplifies the worst of humankind, Pay no mind to the nonsense it spawns. Someone tweets something, one person is outraged, then some people get outraged at the outrage, then the outrage spreads like a Danny Boyle version of Tron. It's not real. It's not representative of us. Most of humanity are kind, decent and compassionate, but unfortunately we also have an unhealthy fetish for drama that Twitter exploits perfectly and it creates a depressing, nasty caricature of the world.

    Purge your life of such bullshit, push Optimus prime around the living room carpet once in a while, and life will be better.

    This edition on the Brooticus soapbox is sponsored by Big Powered IMS. "Dia...CLOOONE!"

    Thanks. The missus woke up so managed to have a nice chat. Until the signal cut out. It's just so frustrating waiting for the government for no real reason. Pulled this behemoth off the shelf to have a play with. It's funny how things can ve forgotten a while but then the greatness all comes flooding back.

    Yeah, apologies for the cardiac workout, I meant "Outback" and Cindersaur getting listed despite not getting demo'ed at Toyfair means potential extension to four waves for the other smaller size class. And now I can't find the news thread about it now but it is integrated into Nevermore's listings:
    Yeah, I mis-juggled my 3s and 4s there. Sorry 'bout that.

    It was actually a TRU listing. The Walmart listings are fairly new.

    And the original internal Hasbro leak was last year and was removed at Hasbro's request.

    So, I ordered the Wave 1 Prime Masters from Kapow, but ended up with two Skullgrin (Skullgrins?) and no...blue one? Any one need a deceitful rake bastard?
