Final Battle Jazz
Dropkick, who looks mis-transformed
Longarm
Payload


dunno if this is old or not, but i didnt see it anywhere. if it is, so sorry


EDIT: Whoops, theres more, they also have pics of some of the new real gear, and oddly, longarm is in with them too, as well as

Leader Brawl
Voyager Rescue Ratchet
and Thundercracker

What's the difference between final battle Jazz and the regular Movie Deluxe Jazz? Just the big frackin gun? Does he break in half?

lol look at the pics dude (or dudette), hes got scuplted battle damage in robot mode, and a lot of it at that

Can't really tell the difference; I've never seen a Deluxe Jazz in person...(and it's dude...my dudette thinks me strange)

These are out at my local Walmart already. I was confused when I saw them. Now I know.

Anyone know if Final Battle Jazz can break in two?

If that is indeed correct, then that is far earlier than anyone expected, seeing as the US only just got Wave 3 (08 Bumblebee, Dreadwing, Arcee, Bonecrusher) last week.

softimus prime, that was a completely awesome repaint. Where did you find that?

Wow, they all look pretty good except for FB Jazz and Thundercracker.

Not a bad fan of Jazz at all, but if there is some "break in-half" action feature, I will be all over it. He will be the Autobot in my display always being torn around and having to be saved, lol.

Its still a toss up to me between the regular Ratchet and the rescue version. I like the color of the regular version, but I also like that the rescue version has the medic colors.
I dunno, I guess I'll just wait and see who I see first.

I really like all the new bots too, they will be great additions to my very slim collection.

And Thundercracker is just Starscream re-paint and thus he looks like a giant brick. PASS!

SB

Ack. The clear parts on Leader Brawl don't look that great. This might be the first figure that I actually add paint apps to. Blech.

BD Jazz: Not a big fan, if he does break in two that is a plus... But I already have Alternator Jazz/Meister so I don't need him.

Dropkick: Well he's solid. Can't say he'll be an instant add to my collection, particularly if he is not mistransformed in that picture.

Longarm: Nice figure, probably one I'll pick up

Payload: Best of the dronesque robots.

Brawl: I've been holding on to the deluxe and not opening him, despite buying him on day one, since I wanted to see what leader class looked like... Well he looks to bulky for my tastes so deluxe is finally going to be opened.

Ratchet: Hmmm I'll need to do more research, I though I heard a classics ratchet was coming, if not I may very well add this guy.

Thundercracker: Nah I'll skip, I have Armada Thundercracker and he is good enough.

Most are a 'go' for me, but battle-damaged Jazz, pass for the G1 repaint, I guess...maybe.

And does indeed look like Dropkick is badly mistransformed.

Interesting name, but if they can do Grandslam, Raindance, Slamdance, and so forth, I suppose the can do DROPKICK.

Other good sports related names for TFs?
Steeplechase?
Goalkick?
Slamdunk?
Sacrifice Fly
Bunt
Suicide Squeeze
First Down
Touchdown
Field Goal
Punt
Hail Mary
Hattrick
Slapshot
Sticksave
...

Sorry, I just kind of find DROPKICK to be an odd name.

So how many people are going to get a second '08 Bumblebee to whack the legs off of, and connect to the backside of Longarm?

No we didnt. Well not by me. The shelves are still empty. The only new crap ive found were the new FABs.

Looks like we've got ourselves an emo transformer.

I've planned on it, especially now that the black stripes on the front of the car are getting rubbed off, I've noticed the paint on the doors is messed up... why are these movie figures such crap..?

longarm and dropkick look alright. would not get leader brawl. his head sticks out

thundercracker, or Starscream imho, is going to go quick.

I love the bios for Dropkick and the Ratchet repaint. Nice touches. And I'd like to pick up most of those figs, especially the non-movie ones (Dropkick, Longarm and Payload).

Jin said spliting Jazz was just a matter of removing 2 screws a the torso.

I can't wait for MP screamer in Sept.

Can someone elighten me and tell me what the deal is with these toys. I am a transformers fan reborn and I have bought as many toys as I can get my hands on lately. I have been stopping into TARGET, TOYS R US and WAL MART stores whenever I can. Checking the websites everyday. But the only place I can find these new toys are on EBAY and frankly I'm getting pretty sick and tired of having to pay three times the price and being raked over the coals with shipping costs. I know I dont have to by them but I'm so anxious. Anyhow, what is the usual process when these toys are released. Are they shipped once or twice and are they all released in limited numbers. If you dont get them soon after release is it probably safe to assume you will never get them in the stores . I read day after day that these new toys are popping up in stores but the stores I go to are just empty racks and shelves. Maybe someone or a few of you could share with me your experience when it comes to securing these toys when they are released. And do you think they are going to rerelease some of the CYBERTRON series toys, I've got the big PRIME, METROPLEX, Menasaur, Cybertron Primus, Quickmix but I really want to get my hands on the big Megatron and Galvatron figures but I dont want to pay 90$ for them on ebay. Any info would be appreciated.

Are the new ones, ie Payload, Longarm, Dropkick, Ratchet Repaint, etc... going to be exclusive to a certain retail chain?
