They really should have done a twopack with Silverstreak as the toy colored bluestreak, and diaclone blue Bluestreak with a new name. Blue rstreak.

Any guesses as to what these might be? My suspicion is one of them is Reboost, the Red Skids, but the other..... Ans what about Amazon? They've had a couple of mainline 2 pack exclusives the last two years and probably will again. No sign yet of the Buzzsaw repaint from Waspinator or an Earthmode Hound. A home for Armada Thundercracker & Skywarp? Stuntcions: G2 versions as exclusives down the line? Autobot repaints again?

A home for Armada Thundercracker & Skywarp? There's Crosscut (silver) from Skids too, and Loudpedal (black) from Tracks. I'm guessing Skids will get reused a bit as his toy is in an earlier wave.

Bargainmax have a Buzzworthy Bumblebee set of Cyberverse Spark Armour Megatron. They really will slap anything in this line won't they.

Oh no! I'd be gutted to miss this. That said, I don't remember having trouble getting either Red Wing or Runabout. Will definitely be keeping a close eye on the import sites.

Yup. I missed out on Runabout and am loath to pay the three figures that deluxe toy now commands.

This year's Kingdom Target exclusives - T-Wrecks and Road Rage - were much easier to obtain that the 2019 Siege ones and the later 2020 Earthrise ones (Thrust & Runabout) There was an earlier set of Earthrise ones - Thundercracker & Skywarp and the Decepticon Clones - that weren't that hard to get at the time but are now

I got Thundercracker and Skywarp just recently from a reissue, and Runabout was carried by a few of our online stores. Suspect with the latter I was just lucky to be in shielding and at home at the right time though...
Road Rage was super easy to get though, so maybe that bodes well?

I had to drive two hours to get my Worlds Collide set, and only stumbled onto Dezzah's set after telling him I was giving up on ever finding one. These are the only two of this set I've ever seen. None of these have been anywhere close to easier than previous years.

There's an unwritten "for us in the UK" in that previous paragraph, apologies for not making that clear.
The general feedback I've been hearing from your side of the pond was that this year's were easier to get though

OH DEAR, SORRY HASBRO, IT SEEMS I CANNOT FIND THE TOY I WISH TO EXCHANGE FOR MY MONEY! WHAT A SHAME! I HAVE MONEY HERE, HASBRO, WHY DON'T YOU WANT IT? WHY?!?!?!
Idiots.

The general feedback I've been hearing from your side of the pond was that this year's were easier to get though I thought you meant in general, my bad. Mileage may vary on the two kingdoms. The people who've had an easy time have signed up for the target credit card scam. T-Wrecks seems to have been spotty in stores (some get a bunch, some states barely got any), but once it was unlocked stuck around for a few days online for a few days. Road Rage is still card locked. But I don't know of anyone who's had an easy time with the Worlds set. I miss the Siege exclusives that with a little effort, I was able to get a bunch for you guys. I thought they were hard, but in hindsight they were easy mode.

IIRC Rumours say this is destined for a 2nd Buzzworthy BB 4 pack with a proper colours Goldbug Oh no. That's the only way I'm going to be able to get a proper Goldbug? That's going to be... annoying. Although they'll probably make it easy for me by not using the VW Beetle mold.

Beetle alt mode and blue head or no dice.

I'm so sick of that mold that I don't care to ever see it again, unless it's as Tapout and Glyph.

We've used that mold so many times, it's now rounded back to being Cliffjumper again.
There hasn't been a mold to get this much use since CW.

No. This one has grey limbs, pale blue windows, a brighter red, an autobot symbol on the chest and a different coloured gun.

Kind of like that. Animation colours work well. Except the painted window.

Shit! Just seen on the packaging that it's a TF:TM Studio Series toy. I must have it.
Though why it's in BB rather than SS86 is a mystery.
