+ Scene with Lockdown vs Prowl.

nice always a fan of a good duel

+ Blurr toy coming.

sounds cool

+ Holo Wheels.

I have no clue what the fudge holo wheels are but i do like the sound of them

+ Swindle toy is coming - looks really nice if you like the G1 version.

yay

+ Prowl with sidecar Armor toy, with new weapon and colors and fix hands.

hmmm now I find myself thinking it might be worth a wait for this toy rather then the first

There will be a Skywarp toy that is a redeco of Starscream. They say by no means Skywarp means a clone army of seekers is being made.

yeah thats for botcon... ok I dont really care that much but if they do add TC i will be a happy (and £20 poorer) boy

+ We'll be seeing a Shockwave toy as well.

so thats screamer Soundwave shock wave and megatron all back together sweet

+ Jetfire and Jetstorm - Fire and Ice. They are future type jets made in Voyager class. One is blue and one is fire kinda color.

+ No plans for more Combaticons at this time.

shame but unless they all could combine I dont think I would be happy with them

+ There is a female character coming up that doesn't have a tragic past.

:07laugh

:eek WOW BLURR

 

SHOCKWAVE :awsum

+ Starscream is DEAD

 

Like that's ever stopped him before.

so, starscream is going to be zombified :eek

yay!

+ Starscream's treachery grows...

BUT

+ Starscream is DEAD.

HUH? This better not mean he's going to be a ghost. Lame concept, don't repeat it.

 

+ Constructicons coming: Mixmaster, Scrapper. Tom Kenny and Jeff Bennet voice these two.

I can so see Kenny doing Mixmaster's voice.

 

+There will be a Skywarp toy that is a redeco of Starscream. They say by no means Skywarp means a clone army of seekers is being made.

AND

+ Hasbro will redeco the seekers with all the colors at some point in reference to Thundercracker. They keep saying no clone army in the show, so may be the redeco jets are just toys.

Learn a little lesson Hasbro? :07laugh

 

+ Jetfire and Jetstorm - Fire and Ice. They are future type jets made in Voyager class. One is blue and one is fire kinda color.

:win

 

+ June is the TF Rollout DVD release and in Aug the rest of Season 1 will be out on DVD. You have to buy both DVDs to have the complete season. No word on what features the Aug DVD will have yet.

Energon and Cybertron have no boxed sets yet but S1 of TF:A will have on within a year. Guess that tells you something about ratings.

 

+ Sari had a backpack that transformed into a tricycle that was originally was going to be in the opening credits but it got cut. Its not planned to be in the show for now but maybe seen later, they call it t-bob.

Maybe because it's already been done?

 

+ Because they have a limited voice cast budget its unlikely both Swoop and Snarl will speak in the show. They are kinda like Larry, Daryl and Daryl (Newhart reference).

Wow, the show's first :fail

yay 20 yrs we have to wait for some human figures in a transformers line. I hope they do it and the figures have some sort of articulation. :07laugh

starscream has no spark but he has a fragment of the allspark in his head so he indestructible

so screamer in effect merges with that part of the all spark thus so long as the all spark is around so is screamer

 

 

I can get behind that idea
