    Oh yes!!!! I cannot wait to find these.

    Does anyone else find it interesting they say that Brawl put Jazz offline instead of Megatron. I find it odd Hasbro would write a bio about Jazz's death in the game rather than the actual movie itself.

    >_< Seriously regretting getting pale blue Leader Megs earlier.

    Aaaand not looking forward to trying to track down that Bumblebee. Bad memories of finding the first concept Bee come flooding back. DAMN YOU BATTLE MASK!

    Well...the Premium bios are entertaining...

    Might be sold on Bumblebee, but maybe not. Is there another 'Bee that has the "Battle Mask" thingy?

    Prime, though...him, I'm pretty sure I need.

    Would have been nice to see pics for each of them. It's my only complaint as the toys that are shown look very nice.

    Stealth Bumblebee, but the colours are terrible. Basicly all the yellow plastic from the first Concept BB is just painted over in black, not molded black.

    Arg. That's kind of a shame. I'd rather get a 'Bee with a different color head.

    Well, maybe I do need two yellow 08 Bees...

    So what's the word on the Target exclusive of Premium Edition Voyager Starscream? I haven't heard a thing about it in months, there was no mention or display of it @ Toy Fair, and the Hasbro website doesn't appear to have any info either.

    Any ideas?

    Nice work using the promo photos from the original Blackout instead of the Premium Blackout, website guys. :)

    Companies usually only show mass retail products at Toy Fair, no store exclusives. Because Toy Fair is to get retailers interested in new products, and there is no point in getting retailers interested in a competitor's exclusives.

    Megatron is an absolute must-buy. Bumblebee and Prime are up there too (just not quite as high of a priority as Megatron). I don't need any more Barricade figures (and other pics indicate that he really hasn't changed much, least not in any ways that would make me want to buy him). Blackout is a strong possibility, Ironhide not so much.

    I agree I MUST have that Megatron. Same with shiny Jazz and the new Blackout. Optimus Prime is a big "MAYBE", I really want to see how much metallic paint is on him when I see him in stores before decided for sure. The others are passes, they're too similar to the initial releases for me.

    I'll buy 'em all.

    I'm a sucker, but those paintjobs are too nice to pass up. I'll just end up displaying them with their original versions, one in each mode.

    Premium BB and Megs are the only ones I'm really interested in. Maybe Jazz depending on how he looks. Can't be worse than the dull grey plastic.

    So all the premium series are obssessed with looks? Lol
    They all look great however I'll be passing on them all (due to owning the originals) except Ironhide as I missed him first time round.

    Man, am I ever glad I didn't get leader-class Megatron yet! The premium version looks awesome!

    Took me too long to find the previous delux Barricade now they are re-releasing a repaint in metallic? Bah I guess I’ll have both. Damn them for making an evil police car. Kind of sucks will drop the value significantly. Lame.
