Pinwig: The Strafe you saw will be the Power Battler/Transformers Attackers version Yes, that was it. Dreadful. If the box had a flash that said 'power battlers' at least I'd know what I'm looking at. But then I'd still have to come back to the excellent toy release list here to put it in context. I'm also assuming the US TRU exclusive two packs won't make it here because the single Generations are an exclusive here anyway. They don't need extra incentives. How well the toys are selling is a different matter, I'd wait until the film is out before judging that I think.

No thread for this but it is about TF4 toys - that in the US toy sales are down 50% but mainly due to less toy displays in the shops. But what are the sales like in the UK with toy only available in certain shops? Was that odd line in that report not clarified to mean TF toys have 50% less shelf space than before, not that they're selling 50% less?

You would guess that less toy on display means less selling - unless they always replace sold toys with the same toys.

Want the rusty evasion prime... Looks better than the g1 version. Also want Rollbar, the skids repaint. Can live without that hideous suv guy.

It comes down to "Do I need a third Skids?" for me

Hmm - yeah, rusty Prime looks more screen accurate, but I've got the G1-themed version, so I think I'll stick with that for now. Not as impressed with the AoE reveals as I was with the Generations reveals. But that's not at all surprising...

I was 99% sure he wasn't, and don't really care anymore if he is or not, but I would like a movie style Prowl figure. This one changer acrually looks really good! I love the head/face on him.

Finally cracked what AOE Grimlock reminded me of! Transmetal Megatron. Very similar colours, bar the purple Dinobot head. It was this custom that made me think of it: www.cheetimus.com/2014/05/generations-tm-megs.html(rest of the blog is well worth a look)

I'm in love with the blue triple changer drift (seriously, that's what hasbro should have done for the voyager helicopter, instead of digging out that bad dotm mold), as well as the bat and croc primal and megs. I want those baaaad.
