Well, the show was kinda asking for it with that new deco it gave him.JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:And there's the final Deluxe. Figures it's a repaint of Bumblebee.
Though, I'm sure many would have preferred the non-BH PRID mold or even the FE mold for maximum show-accuracy.

Terrible color correction. That Bumblebee is the final 16th Deluxe in the lineup, so no more figures until a new line.

Then again, it's not the best quality. If they put the CGI's head on that toy, I'll be game, as it seems they got the shoulders, arms and legs rather accurate (minus the torso unfortunately).
Bumblebee was unnecessary, but at least we get a semi-show accurate S3 Deluxe Bee. Was hoping that slot would be given to Ser-Ket. Oh well; it's up to you now, Takara.
We're never getting a Ser-Ket.

No more figures, or just no more new molds? I can't believe they won't roll out some repaints.
Is the "next line" the new Generations and/or 30th Anniversary figures?

Prowl, on the other hand... I want to see more of him before I make a decision.

16 Figures. No more.

Who knows? "Predacons Unleashed"? Personally I believe that's the name of the Abominus gift set and not a sub-line imprint, but I could be wrong.

I meant a new Prime line or sub-line.

I think they're done with Prime and moving on to the next portion of the Aligned continuity. This is sort of saddening for me, as I absolutely adore the Prime design aesthetic.

* Clearly. Because if you did, you'd notice the astounding lack of Bumblebees on retail shelves, and the clogging of shelves given to the likes of the Predacons, Smokescreen, and Bulkhead.

Wait, Smokescreen and Bulkhead are out now? All I ever see is mostly Lazerback, accompanied by very few Wheeljacks and maybe a Soundwave.

The only reason BB was clogging the shelves is because hafl of each goddamn cases were filled with BBs and he was in each waves.
If that BB is only one per cases, it will be fine.
Beside, I dont plan to buy the regular BH BB but I'll be sure to buy this stealth version for a Bee that is completely different than the rest of my collection.
That is, if each waves come out at a regular speed in Canada, unlike the retarded way PRID deluxes camout out. (PRID deluxes wave two just barely made it in Canada! And there's not much on the pegs.)

And a white repaint of a white toy, hrm... I kinda want some kind of Barricade to go with this Prowl.

I know the show gave a reason, but it'd have been neat to see an "elite white/silver" Vehicon or Skyquake or Ser-Ket or someone more interesting.

Skyquake?

*ahem* We already got a Skyquake.

For a moment there, I though I completely misremembered his name.

They came out two months ago.
Something tells me it's time to catch up on your news.

Are you kidding me? When have I ever been caught up with the news?
Posted by ILL-Star on May 22nd, 2013 @ 6:36pm CDT
I find it a bit hard to believe that this wave 5 is the end of the line. Though, wave 4 has yet to be released. It's possible, but still unlikely enough.

Guess I go to the customs, then. Those guys can probably gouge us for a Ser-Ket repaint.
I'm honestly surprised, as it's just a straight redeco. Best bet is to see her (and some of the other repainted/retooled Predacons) fill out future waves of toylines, either in Generations or whatever the successor to Beast Hunters ends up being...
...wow, I dashed my hopes before I'd finished hoping.
