TFW2005 friend and sponsor BigBadToyStore has just revealed on their Facebook page a few very interesting and awesome shared exclusives. We’ve seen some these before and all of which have been rumored, but here are our first good images at the following figures:
- Platinum Edition Generations Dinobot 5-pack (darker, movie accurate decos)
- First Edition Optimus Prime w/ Trailer and Deluxe Class Sideswipe (G1 redeco from ROTF Sideswipe – at first thought to be Stinger)
- Generations Autobots 5-pack (premium paint decos for Autobot team)
Unfortunately there is no ordering or release information to pass along at this time. BBTS will carry all items that we’ve linked in the pictures and will offer them at official MSRPs.
How psyched are you for these releases?! Let’s hear it after the jump.

Since BBTS showed off the leader 2-pack as their "shared exclusive", am I the only one who thinks that maybe Toys "R" Us might carry this too, since SDCC showed off the leader 2 pack as a TRU exclusive, so it might be but I'm guessing its only BBTS, and doubt it would be a Canadian Retail Exclusive if TRU doesn't carry it
Autovolt 127
Autobots United.

"This" what? Which one?
If any of these ended up under $100 Canadian, I'd shit my pants.

If this got a Canadian retail release, would this cost over a hundred bucks?

Do we know how limited these are going to be yet? I'd really hate to miss out on ordering just because I was working and didn't have access to a computer or even my phone (I work retail so I can't be on my phone all the time).
Prime135
Yeah, it'd be the most I'd ever spent on a transformer, let alone a retail release. However for five figures with premium paint jobs it might be worth it.

Totally. The other day I was picking up Galvatron with Hound sitting right there, but passed hoping that BBTS would come through. Same with the dinobots and leader grimlock. $150 would be a bit too much though imo, as the price for 2 voyagers and 3 deluxes, even with premium paint apps and an exclusive and what not, should not be that much considering its a MSRP

Same for me with Autobots United.
Prime135
I've resisted buying the characters in these sets (especially hound) maaaaany times, so I'm hoping to get them for closer to $100. Although, I guess robot kingdom's $150 would be ok.

Oh yeah, I'm real reluctant to get it from BBTS, but seeing as how getting the retail release might cost just as much for me as Autobots United…no brainer :/
soundwaverulls
I'm not certain. There's been a very negative reaction to these things being online exclusives. Although just because they hate something, doesn't mean fans won't still buy it.
Edit:
So there is a chance BBTS will have them for cheaper. YES!!!

Instantly for Dinobots. 1 hour for Autobots.

How fast does anyone think Autobots United will sell out?
Crosshairss
Robot Kingdom had the same thing, where I guess they got their hands on a couple and are trying to sell them for high prices. However, RK had them for $149, so I'm guessing their not real MSRP's. BBTS will probably have them for cheaper IMO, but I would expect it not to be anything MASSIVELY cheaper, but for the dinobots and autubots united packs, both for $250 would be ok for me
soundwaverulls
EACH!?! OH GOD! Please let BBTS have them for cheaper. If I have to fork out that much just for half decent paint apps, Hasbro can say goodbye to my money for anything AOE related.

man, i don't even want entire sets just platinum sludge, slag and swoop, and leader grimlock. would have to commish a snarl tho…

We have pre orders on a local store, That FE with trailer, autobots/dinobot 5 pack are around 200$. I was expecting them to be cheaper, i want those 3 gift set but im not sure if i want to pay at that price knowing i can buy another mp10hasbro or the takara version i still dont have,

Not yet, no. Those haven't been shown at any previous convention this year, so we're still in the dark as to how they appear in-hand. The pic of the set shown in this promo pic was the first time we had any clue what they were doing with it.
Crosshairss
Has anybody seen robot mode/in hand pics of the dinobots set? Since we got the pics of the leader 2 pack and every other set, was wondering if they had been uncovered at all
