Wait smashdown is being released?

 

As a mercenary I think. That's why he's in Earth Starscream's hand in that one pic.

 

Hmmm....very interesting

 

Are they going to be remolded or is it just a re-release? What's the difference?
And what's that "universe map" in the end?

 

Lambros fully equipped.

 

To my knowledge they’re just rereleases with new packaging. The universe map was talked about in the product descritpions and it’s supposed to be a red decder thing.

 

So we are gonna drop Astrotrain under siege and Earthrise?

I thought repainting Starscream a dozen times was a stretch already, but now the same bot in 2 different boxes might just be too much.

Getting a bit lazy if you ask me.

May be no biggy for some, but my OCD compulsion to complete checklists will require me to purchase both for the sake of a box

 

It was explained earlier that Hasbro extended WFC-S so Astrotrain was always a WFC- E Leader they just bumped him up

 

Come to realize that I really need Siege Mirage in my collection.

 

I still don't fully understand. I get that he was supposed to be in the first Earth-Rise wave. But are they releasing him in a Siege box, an ER box, or both?

 

Both from what was read but nothing is set in stone as of yet and nothing concrete, case assortments have changed before. Siege box or Earth box it's the same figure

 

Oh man. My dudes. I have all 4 Datsun bros. I love them. So much. Got smokey today and I'm sooooo happy with him. he's perfect and by extension the other 3. These are definitely the definitive versions for my autobot shelf.

 

He went to college.

 

I found PowerDasher Cromar at my local toys r Us

 

He doesn't have to be:

 

But I've been collecting the Siege art, and I want to know which box has better art before I buy the first one I see.  

It's not a big deal, just confused and curious.
