Cooooool. Windy digs. I'd probably spring for this instead of getting both separately.

Are these like Deluxe sized figures or are they smaller? I can't tell from the picture.

Well, the certainly did a good job of making the bad guy "cool" and matching things up.

Sports Car + Sporty Cop Car = Win.

That is a great set. I may not want to buy these, but any kid who sees the movie certainly will.

I like this set, but couldn't see myself opening it if I got it (looks too nice). Unless they're different in some way, I'll probably pass.

I hope Canadian Wal Marts get this one, if they do, I'll hold of getting Barricade seperately and get him with BB in the two pack instead, it'll save me a few bucks.

They should have it about the time TF the movie 2 comes out.

Posted by Collector Maximus on May 8th, 2007 @ 2:30pm CDT

I'm the type of person who would rather have them separately in case I want to leave them in the package. Unless there was an exclusive figure involved, I likely won't buy this.

It'll be around 16-17 dollars. It says if you go to transformers.com, click on products, then exclusives, then wal-mart.

Posted by Zeedust on May 8th, 2007 @ 4:49pm CDT

I'd prefer they were redecoed at least a little, but at 16.99, I'm gonna get this instead of the individual carded versions for sure. Love the vs packs.

Posted by Liege Evilmus on May 8th, 2007 @ 5:16pm CDT

I'll get this to keep sealed and the carded figures to wage war with!

Still waiting for the last 3 exclusives to hit my area though.

Posted by Cybertron Optimus on May 8th, 2007 @ 7:38pm CDT

Since there no changes between the box set and the carded versions I'll just get this one. Save me 3 bucks.
