It is unclear what store will have this two pack as an exclusive, however with no minor adjustments to the figures, it's clear that this box set is something that most people will miss out on.

The two pack, would have been much more buyable if Ratchet had been repainted better. Making the black parts a smokey gray is not enough to warrant a purchase.
The Fallen: still not impressed.

Geez, Hasbro is sure catering to you. Mind breaking your Leader Buster Prime and Leader Jetfire? I wouldn't mind that in a two pack.

Gladly. I'll make sure it is an exclusive, unreleased Premium Jetfire too!

(Prime finished him off quick) And I thought this could have been that Blackout was revived with Megatron since the underwater scene was so unclear and quick...Does anyone else agree ???
That was Grindor.

Dude I cant even say how with you I am. It would be even better if they made Grindor's head come off and split in half. Then I would get it

Nope. Remember in the movie when there were a lot of generic Decepticons in the desert assault? My guess is they came from the Breeding chamber that ran out of Energon later on. Some had (adapted) forms similar to other 'cons, that's how the doubles of the Constructicons (and the rogue Bonecrusher) can be explained. Same goes for the Blackout lookalike Grindor.

Nah, Costco usually goes for something bigger. I call TRU exclusive, with a price that will make the figures sellable, something like $45 Canadian and $35 American.

I disagree. Other than Universe Unicron, TRU doesn't usually so straight repackages like this. CostCo's last two (Cybertron Prime and Wing Saber and Cyb Prime and Crumplezone) were repackages. Unless I've totally forgotten what store those belonged to. Which, after two gin and tonics tonight, is *very* possible.
EDIT: Right after I hit submit, I remembered the Desert Attack 2 pack with Blackout and Scorponok. But something makes this feel CostCo still.

Nah, TRU's exclusives are really slowing down here, and I just have a feeling that this will be it. Autobot Strike Mission has 4 Deluxes, and that's totally Costco material all over it.
