So, does this make swipe one of the rarest TFormers out there?

no the DODOBOT is

no the DODOBOT is

 

 

who?

ok, provided that the search engine is turned off, there no way that I could look it up in any other form than straight out ask...

 

also provided that Target is having a TF sale 'til 6/20...

 

Couple months ago there was a rumor saying that Hasbro has put 2 delux (or other sizes) figures into the Energon circulation. All I remember was that they were repaint version of another line, so if anyone has some info or could point to where I could dig this info up, it would be appreciated. 

 

P.S.: I hope this statisfy you NM~

You mean these?

I covered them under "Universe".

UPDATE:

 

- Railbots in packaging

- Binaltech Overdrive unlicensed? (reason for long barrel)

- Wildrider's color scheme

 

Did I miss anything?

so what is the deal with the Universe line?

it looks to have stopped but whats the word?

Minor update:

 

- Removed the Dollar store exclusive "G1" Spychangers on Universe cards. They've been out for a while and shouldn't be considered a mystery any longer.

- Updated the Micromaster "Railbots". Will remove them as well once they're out in US retail.

 

Haven't added the new Universe stuff (KB exclusive Snow Cat & Downshift, discount chain exclusive Energon Arcee, Windrazor, Strong Arm and Doom-lock repackages) yet since they're still fairly new and will hopefully just come out in a few months and thereby kill any rumors about "photoshop" crap and all.

Also didn't add any Cybertron stuff yet. The RiD Optimus Prime/Ultra Magnus repackages just surfaced in packaging, the Vector Prime/Starscream pack is still being debated, and anything else is still too new to qualify for this list.
