The 4 non Jazz deluxe are here. Once again the pictures have not done them justice

Popped the deluxe open today.
Simply amazing.
Even Laser Cycle is good, I've finally got a good copy of the bike mode where the front section stays on. Deadend looks fab,the pinky red with metallic pale blue. Mirage and Sideswipe are both fab. For some reason Sideswipe's missile is retooled with a VERY short 5mm ring to lock into the launcher and then a much longer, thinner peg like the one on the back of Miner Megatron's drill. Odd. But he looks so good I can forgive this.
Absolute knock outs. Thank the Lord there's a few years to go before we poll these as it's hard to choose between them. But if in doubt ....

I think I might refuse to vote on something Hasbro didn't give me a fair chance to buy.

They're all on Star too.
I will have them, but it'll have to wait until next month.

Yeah, it's gotta hang on til post-TFN, and I am not optimistic.
I like it that way, it gets the disappointment out of the way early!

Do you want us to secure a Sideswipe for you?

Is that so you can attach blast effects to the back of the missile or something? Or so that smaller figures can wield it like a club..? |

Do you want us to secure a Sideswipe for you? If it were the Mirage at risk I'd say yes, but I'll risk waiting with Sideswipe. As much as I want it it is the, what, seventh time I'll have bought that mould! |

6 times? Slacker! I can make that on the Sideswipe character alone! Sideswipe (Siege)
* Netflix
* Covert Clone
* Earth mode
* Toxitron
* Shattered Glass
Red Alert (Siege)
* Netflix
* Earth mode
Deep Cover (Selects)
* Netflix
Tigertrack (Selects)
Clampdown (Velocitron) SG Sideswipe, which I was charged for overnight, suggests I'm likely to add at least one more The only one I'm missing is it's Gigawatt remould. It's a good job it's a good toy! |

They're waiting for the deluxe Seaspray, and then they're gonna release them as a Buzzworthy Bumblebee four pack!
...well I can at least fantasize that's what they'll do, can't I?

I have been violently emotionally attacked tonight!
After I got off work I managed to stop by walmart before closing.
And I got an update from Fedex that Grimlock, who was supposed to be delivered tuesday, has been delayed until Wednesday!
And not five minutes later, I see him! At Walmart!
And I think that was just so mean of them!
