The rules seem to imply that if you win one of the lower prizes (I'm concerned with Pepsi Prime, cause he's the one I've entered like 70 codes on), they just mail it straight to your address. My question is, do they email you first to let you know, or do you just wake up with a package at your door one day?

I can't believe how many people are complaining about it not being red. Despite the fact that I think it would look pretty ugly red, has everyone forgotten that this ISN'T G1 Ironhide? That it has his name only? Maybe we should go back and recolor every toy that ever had the name Ironhide red since it's so obvious that IRONHDE=RED LOLZ...

Those are sexy. How come we never get any decent exclusives? Japan gets atmospheric entry protoforms, we get; two repaints of Energon Arcee. Awesome.

Dammit, I put in like 50 codes on Pepsi prime and I ain't won a thing.

Uhh...maybe my memory is just bad but was "Whip It" even in the movie?

Yea, since we've seen soo much of it and can make truly informed opinions on it.. Autobots in the role of super-heroes with super powers Human super villains Decepticons downplayed Stand alone episodes Fights between Autobots and Decepticons downplayed as well Those reasons coupled with the posters we've seen and the fact that it's the same animation style as Teen Titans (which I hate incredibly) tell me all I need to know. That and the fact that there hasn't been a good Transformers show since Beast Wars. Also, show-accurate toys; can't blame the cartoon for that, but it's still lame.

I hate G4. How can an entire channel devoted to gamers miss the mark so badly?

Hell Brawl had even less screen time than Bonecrusher. Not really, Brawl stood around for most of the end battle before biting it, Bonecrusher appears, fights and dies in like five minutes (if you haven't seen it yet, surprise! They both die!) Bonecrusher was a big let-down in my opinion. He looks awesome, is featured prominently in the ads, gets hyped up incredibly, then transforms, tackles Prime and dies. I think it would be awesome if he got a leader class figure, but I doubt it. But then again, despite having only slightly more screen time and the same cannon fodder role, we are getting a leader Brawl so anything is possible.

Yeah, too bad the cartoon will suck terribly...

Awesome work, as always. I love the shot of Laserbeak perching on Jazz's corpse.

Well, that's just friggin' awesome! I have so much respect for people like you who can paint a 5 inch tall robot to look like it should be a real-life 50 foot wrecking machine.

I just love how two news sites reported it as legit without apparently noticing how crappy some of it is or the huge list of movies the guy clipped it together from at the end.

Uhh...that trailer is completely fake...

Wow, that actually does look really cool, the kinda sad, haunting music in the background helps. "Oh, so unwise..." His toy may be stupid looking, but Megatron himself looks totally badass.

Nice shipping errors there, I hope they mess up and send me something extra...

That Osprey guy looks awesome! Is he canceled? Damn.

I'm not even that big of a Joe fan and I bought a R.O.C.C and two Scrap Irons for the hell of it. At the very least, my Clones will have a new ride to tool around in.

I could be wrong, but I believe he is in one G1 episode in the background for like 2 seconds and is never named, just a generic yellow seeker. The character got a boost when e-Hobbby recolored the seeker mold as an exclusive and he has gained a fan following since, resulting in a larger role in comics and an easy repaint for any Star Scream mold.

Am I the only one who watched that and thought "meh"?

He's a FAB? Good, maybe they'll make another version of him that doesn't look so stupid.

I don't really care how the movie turns out to be, if I figure has a nice design that I dig, I buy it. I've been doing the same thing since Armada, haven't really watched the shows, just get the figures I enjoy on an aesthetic level.

Target seems to be a good place to search, I found my trooper there as well as TWO McQuarrie Fetts.

Hey, she's welcome to come celebrate with me...rowr...

So, let me get this straight; they won't make the AT-TE because it's a big vehicle with very little screen time so not enough people would recognize it to buy it, but they'll make the AT-TP, a vehicle that had about half a second of screen time and was made at the last minute to diversify the clone ranks? Makes perfect sense. Not that I have anything against the AT-TP, it's just odd to see them chose a much more obscure vehicle over one everyone has been asking for since the first ROTS trailers... (And yes, I know their main reason against the AT-TE is size, but c'mon, they could do it and make a ton of money off it if they did.)

I've spent about $35 on preview Prime and Star Scream and from ordering Wreckage and Brawl from Hasbrotoyshop. Still, I'll probably get voyager Ironhide (he's what, $30?) Booster X-10 (bout $8), Bonecrusher ($10), maybe Star Scream but his jet mode looks a bit too bulky, probably wait for Thundercracker or the G1 SS repaint for the better colors (another $30). So too much probably...
