I thought that Breakdown was a little challenging to transform without the instructions. I didn't realize that the shoulders flipped downwards along the figure's sides to unlock the piece the head is attached to. Pretty clever engineering there.

Um, what?
Are you kidding me?
Hasbro decides the basic retail price, unless I'm mistaken.
But it's the retailers, physical and online, that can increase or decrease it.
So, in short, hush.

When they do, however, the reasonable thing is for their listing to say they're sold out. What is probably not such a great idea is to remove the listings entirely but leave the big picture on the front page saying they're available for preorder that leads to the Combiner Wars category they are no longer listed in.
I spent more time than I'd care to admit thinking I just wasn't looking hard enough before locating the search thingy and discovering that they were just no longer listed.

Breakdown would be my favorite Stunticon but the hips are just too wonky and I don't like the amount of force I have to use to peg them into the arms.

Also, the more recent Brawl figures weren't tanks either:
Posted by Nemesis Maximo on April 5th, 2015 @ 12:07am CDT
Onslaught=Hot Spot, redeco/retool (new head, guns instead of ladder)
Vortex=Alpha Bravo, new head
Brawl to be a new mold tank, not because I'm all "geewun" but becuase I think an update to that to with today's engineering as a deluxe would be awesome. If he's a retool/redeco of Rook, that's fine too.
Swindle could pull off a new tooling of Offroad/First Aid, you think? How hard could it be to make a humvee out of that?
Blast-Off will be a new Legends Class fig, turning into a spaceship (not necessarily a shuttle) and forming Bruticus' Chest plate.
He would then need to be replaced with a more scaled military fighter jet, so maybe a newcomer from the Skydive mold?
Posted by King Kuuga on April 5th, 2015 @ 2:20am CDT
Onslaught retool of Hot Spot is still the most likely.
Alpha Bravo was always Vortex.
Swindle, Brawl, and Blast Off could all be new molds. Plus whoever their sixth member is.

For those curious, here's what I have so far (yet again).
First name is the original release,
Second name is the vehicle pretool,
Third is the head pretool
Completed lineups are in bold (meaning they shouldn't be able to be used for more)
Skydive - Air Raid - ???
Alpha Bravo - ??? - Blades
Firefly - ??? - Sling/Quickslinger
Drag Strip - Mirage - ???
Offroad ("Ruckus") - First Aid - Ironhide
Dead End - Streetwise - Wildrider/Brake-Neck
Breakdown - Sunstreaker - ???
Rook - ??? - ???
Just all theories mind you, but if the Protectobots and Technobots are upcoming, We can already make some provisional mold pairings:
Brawl - Nosecone
Lightspeed - Prowl
Afterburner - Groove
Alpha Bravo - Vortex (alternate vehicle parts)
It all comes down to Unite Warriors Guardian (Defensor) and CW Prowl.

Listings for Onslaught and Scattershot were uncovered a month ago. Here's the news item:
Combiner Wars Onslaught and Shockwave figures revealed in store database, posted February 12th
For convenience sake:
Autobot Pipes (63050936835)
Chop Shop (63050936836)
Shockwave (63050936837)
Buzzsaw (63050936838)
Scattershot (63050936922)
Onslaught (63050936923)
Before anyone asks: 4 Legends, 2 Voyagers in that list, supposedly. Shockwave being a Legends Class does make sense, as Bruticus once wielded him (and shot him out of his cannon afterwards) in the G1 cartoon.

I don't own either mold yet since I am waiting on the takara version. Would you mind telling me what is so different between the two?
Also, Jelze, how do we know that Mirage will be more of a retool than just the head?

I'm going by the standard fare of the second release being the vehicle retool. But that's no guarantee as Blades and Alpha Bravo have proven.

That's a shame. There's alot of aoe craps at my walmart, at least three pegs dedicated to deluxe.(no aoe voyagers thankfully.
Now I found them case fresh, I bought all four stunticons I needed, plus a friend of mine bought air raid.
At walmarts. Look for a pallet of toys just sitting around the toy aisle. Usually towards the entrance of their backroom in the toy section, cause I also got lucky and found a case of the leader megatrons.

Firefly on top, Skydive on bottom.
I don't like Firefly because to me, he feels rather loose. Not like loose joints, but you shake him and he kinda rattles, as if he's not screwed in all the way. He has the worst back kibble of all the Arialbots, and his wings don't really go anywhere, like he's wearing half a jet on his back. At least with Skydive and Air Raid, their wings fold up and do something.
And this is somewhat arbitrary, but his hands are the same piece and color of his arms, with no clear stopping/starting point for either.
Now, this is all just me pretty much. But even though Combiner Wars Deluxes all have a very similar, simple-yet-satisfying transformation, I find the Arialbots rather repetitive, as their all guys with jets on their backs. That's why I like Alpha Bravo so much, because he breaks up the monotony. And I also plan on skipping Slingshot, because he is the same mold as Firefly.
And yes, I understand that the Stunticons are also all spot cars of some kind, but they have pretty unique silhouettes.
And this is all my own opinion, too.

Nemesis Maximo wrote:And yes, I understand that the Stunticons are also all sport cars of some kind
Actually, Drag Strip is a Formula 1-esque race car. And Offroad is a truck. So is Menasor.
So, in short, not sport cars.
But I know what you mean. I only picked up Alpha Bravo for laughs, and I MIGHT get the other Arialbots later. But for now, STUNTICONS ALL THE WAY, BABY!

To be fair, I'd be disappointed if he -didn't- have those things. I'm glad he does, but that's more the nostalgia talking than anything practical in all likelihood.

But you did pick him up, and that's the most important part!
'Cause, y'know...or else.

How is that different from Skydive though? Nose drops to mid back, wings fold back... They look like the exact same kibble/jet-on-back transformations to me...
I'll admit Skydive is my favorite just for the colors I think. I'm not a fan of the way firefly's tail fin folds up... just kind of awkward and loose on mine, but the wings seem the same on both.
Posted by william-james88 on April 5th, 2015 @ 7:18pm CDT
I was at Walmart in Harlingen Tx and noticed that the Dragstrip that is coming out with the Stunticon wave also has comicbook with it. This is new since Dragstrip came in wave one without the comicbook.

With Skydive, the wings are attached to his shoulders, and move higher in robot mode with the arms/chest. On Firefly, they don't even fold back very far.

But really, we get it. You don't like Alpha Bravo. You've made your point clear across two threads. Please drop it and spare us your repetitive diatribe and so we can actually discuss other Combiner Wars stuff without being interrupted by your Alpha Bravo bashing. It's bordering on trolling.

Concerning AB, he might just turn out to be the most wanted collectible figure 20 years from now.

I did get one with loose joints, but I don't know how common that is.

with comic? That'd be one of the first sightings I've heard of.

It's a stretch, but at least it's a good template to work off of to correct history Big Brother-style so that Alpha Bravo has always existed.
