All Evolution 2-packs are Toys 'R Us exclusives in the US and Japan.

That's... really expensive for a Voyager figure, especially one that is missing quite a few paint apps. I know it's probably due to the exclusivity of the figure and import costs, but still...

I got a tiny bit annoyed with the very rear of the truck not clipping together but it does go if you work it. Back to robot mode and going to load him up with his very many weapons.

So who is Hot Shot? A toy only character, or a yet to be revealed on screen character? One vehicle that immediately comes to mind is the Chevy Sonic RS. It's been seen extensively during filming, but never confirmed to have a robot mode. Pure speculation of course, as no images accompany the pre-order.

Actually what really surprises me about this toyline so far is how all the toys revealed may be included in the movie. I say "may" because we have yet to see ALL the dinobots and though Drift is in the film, he may not also be a helicopter. But still, compared to previous films, they kept it pretty much with just the on screen characters. I am really hoping they actually release more toys of other non screen characters. This has usually been a fun way of creating new interesting molds like Bludgeon, Terradive, Skyhammer, Breacher, Seaspray and movie Dirge.

When did they say that? This is the first I'm hearing about it.

BERSEKAEL wrote:I dont know, lot of toys didn't show up on screen, like powerglide, Guzzle, Roller, Hatchet, runamuk, spinister, blades, duststorm, sunstorm, beachcomber, springer, tankor, thundercraker, skywarp, payload, sonar, dephtcharge, skyhammer, deadend, heavy load, smokescreen, swerve, breakdown, wrekcage, blazemaster, cliffjumper, wideload, air raid, and a lot more that came out only toys.

So far, Snarl's only been announced as a deluxe, AFAIK. He's the stegosaurus. The Voyager is Slog, the Brachiosaurus/"Brontosaurus"/one of those long-neck type dinosaurs.

With the exception of Beat Hunters, Hasbro seems to have been skimping on 'cons in general lately. Granted, not usually to this degree, but a LOT of the recent toylines lean somewhat to the bot side, in terms of both more figures and bigger ones.

No, don't bother to try to break it down and "explain it" to me. I don't want to hear it, it's bullsh** plain and simple and utterly stupid. As far as I'm concerned they are two very distinct lines and the only thing that they have in common is that Hasbro is doing a stellar job of screwing them both up.

And as far as this Hot Shot character goes... it's a re-paint, I'll bet money on it. It's wave 3, we still don't have full listings of cast and toys and Hasbro is in their "We don't give a sh**" mode and looking to fleece parents and youngsters for every last red cent so of course we are going to get myriad repaints and cheap filler so they can drag this line out as long as possible with just teases of "new" characters. Marketing 101 folks, plain and simple. Don't think for one second that there is an ounce of loyalty or any respect for continuity or regard for fans. Whatever you have your hopes and dreams set on for figures... think again. Y'all are basing your speculations around past releases or on what Hasbro may or may not have said and not a one of you is thinking from a greed/profit standpoint and therein lies your error.

WONDER IF YOU SAW MY POST ABOUT HASBRO SAYING THEY ARE NOT MAKING UP NON MOVIE TRANSFORMERS FOR THE MOVIE LINE THIS TIME

BECAUSE ITS SHARING WITH GENERATIONS ITS NOT ITS OWN LINE THEY CAN ONLY DO A LIMITED ABOUT OF CHARACTERS TO SHARE ON SHELVES WITH THE OTHER GENERATION TOYS.
