Happy to see these. I did not get the Bumblebee packs as I did not want the Bumblebee toys.
Phil will tell Ralph when orders for this second set go up!

The "2 pack with Frenzy" bit just didn't make sense.
Now we believe there's a second combining 2 pack with Rumble, and perhaps more to follow, you can understand what they're doing.
A case of more info reveals a bigger picture.

I've just realised looking at all the pictures for these that Frenzy isn't on a separate card; that's one backing card folded in the middle.

Ohhh, oh Man-a-live that's beautiful...
Gosh that moves something within me....
Edit: oh I'm not kidding, that just blew me off my bollocks. Nostalgic sledgehammer in the chest. I remember... I remember them! ON THE SHELVES!!!

Just imagine how magical it would be if any of these new re-issues were on UK shelves. Imagine walking into an Asdaland....and seeing them there...

Sure it'll happen. Right after they clearance all those G1 Optimus Primes and minibots that've been on the shelves for months...
...which'll happen right after they stock anything that's not one-step changers. Stupid Asda.

Whelp. Not gonna happen. All Optimi have vanished, save for one that was marked down to $30.

Supermarkets in the UK barely carry *any* TF's these days. I think I would faint if I found G1 reissues in one!

Makes it even more weird why Frenzy has been randomly attached.

Frenzy is slightly recoloured, not sure whether it's supposed to be cartoon Rumble colours, but it's slightly different from regular version.

Maybe it *would* have been Rumble had the convention actually happened? To go along with some convention fiction or other merch or... something?

Perhaps Hascon was going to be jungle themed so there would have been a Rumble in the jungle.

And as this is Hasbro and not Takara, they didn't bother with repairing it or recreating it.
Makes sense.

Ah that explains it. I am very sad to hear the trailer mould is knackered. If the cab robot alone ever hit £20... -Ralph
