    I was looking Ages 3 & Up's website and I can no longer find the SS & WJ KO's. Have they been cancelled? Are they out? Did I overlook them?

    I'm waiting for classics Sunstreaker. There's no point in getting a new KO or a loose original G1 until I can see how Classics Sunstreaker looks like. And he'd be an apropriate size too.

    True, but I collect both reissues and Classics, so KO SS is as close as I can get to a reissue...Classics SS is a damn sure definite!!

    I'm thinking they aren't coming out anymore, because they have been announced as KO releases since as far back as August 2007. They would've released them by now if they were planned.

    I would like to see some pictures of this "KO Limbo Party".

    Do they limbo under flaming sticks like those kids in India? If so..."ouch"...that would be hard on the plastic.

    I would like them to come out ASAP. And then Takara can announce the encore versions approximately 2 months afterwards and hilarity can ensue.

    That would be funny. I pre ordered and I've already broken down and bought an official Sunstreaker loose at a comic shop. Now I' hunting down Wheeljack.

    Live and learn, I'll never buy another KO and I sure as hell doubt I will preorder anything els from the black hole that offered these all those months ago.

    I don't mind a lack of Sunstreaker with the great Universe figure, but there is no suitable replacement for Wheeljack in Classics.

    No, Energon Downshift is not a suitable replacement- he's green in bot mode, has red eyes, and terrible articulation.

    Yeah, I am curious if they will have a new statement at Botcon about the KO policy. So far the only site that has publicly said they have been restricted by hasbro is A3+.

    A couple sellers have the KO Wheeljack & Sunstreaker boxes + inserts for sale on Ebay. I was thinking that means the toys should be out soon? But I could be way off.

    I noticed them on ebay a while ago, that pisses me off that they're circulating and I preordered these months ago and still don't have them.
