We get out of box images of Toys'R'Us Exclusive Reissue Insecticons; Sharpshot, Hardshell and Kickback. This box set is being released after Reissue Perceptor. For those interested in comparing the reissues with the originals, you can check each of them out on Seibertron.com's galleries; Shrapnel, Bombshell, and Kickback.

I will definately pick these up, even with the horrible name changes, they're still the insecticons. Besides, it's not like we're forced to call them by those names.

[Mechastrike]

i guess the Insecticons weren't spared from Trademark issues issues.

[LiKwid]

That purple looks awfully blue..
Nice find Rd

[nemesis-prime]

why are they blue? I'll still get em tho ...

[NemesisRhyme]

Do these have metal bodies like the origionals?

[tom brokaw]

really cool, i cant wait til theyre released

[rpetras]

Anyone know the expected price for these guys?

[NemesisRhyme]

In the SDCC comic con pictures, there were little ID cards with a release date and price. I'm going through the old galleries to find a pic with a good view of the ID card that shows all the info.

I'm shocked Hasbro is releasing Kickback unmodified... In the original USA run, Hasbro added 'discs' at each end of his wings to blunt the pointy ends.. not this time, though.

The Insecticons have always fascinated me since I first saw them in the Animated movie (Mum bought me it when I was 9, never saw G1 until I was 12) so I'm up for getting these! They look like fun!

[shonenfan4]

Might still get these even though I alrdy have the Takara reissue version. Why the name change?

[skywarp-2]

those name changes suck...

Nice touch.

Still not sure if I'll pick them up, I'd rather save my money for a buffet buffet.

Hasbro modified Bombshell's horn too....which was an improvement because it would break off...like my reissue did. I actually bought a junker Bombshell on Ebay to replace the horn.

Probably.

Anyone know the expected price for these guys?

In the $30-$40 price range I believe.

[Powersa]

From what i read the toys will be the exact same as the tfc ones.

[canuckster]

Anyone know if I might be able to find these in a Swedish Toys R Us or is this only limited to North America?

Should be at every single Toys R Us around the world. The amount of stock may be limited though, seeing as you're far off from North America.

Nope, just the US I reckon. When the Toys 'R Us was still in the Netherlands, it never had any of the exclusives.

Doesn't the Netherlands have brutal distribution? From what my friend tells me, the toys don't end up at their stores till months later. And it's not just the US, it's 'North America', so if it were to be secluded then it'll be in Canada/Mexico too.

Thanks for the info but ..... WHAT?!?!?!?! Are they CRAZY?!?!?!

That's WAY too much!!!

If I didn't have them already, sure, I guess, maybe ... but... $40???

That's not true. The later TRU reissues were not released in Quebec due to the packaging not being Bilingual.

Quebec does not equal Canada. >_>
