Appeared on ebay are some new recoloured basics, that were previously unknown. The basics are listed as Target exclusives in America, but we should see them in most stores here like the last couple of waves of this size class.

Gunbarrel (Energon Kickback/Blight)

Backtrack (Cybertron Lugnutz)

Plus the new Walmart recoloured deluxes.

$83 for Fracture? Hopefully when it's in general Walmart release I'll be able to find a better one to buy on ebay.

Most of the repaint scouts have had such drab colours, but Reverb's green and yellow looks good (and much nicer than the Stormcloud/Blackout colour schemes) and is one I'd quite like to get.

Yeah, I really like Reverb's colour as well. Not having so much transparent plastic probably helps.

I thought the Movie/Allspark line was finished :confused:

Why are they still persisting with these - shouldn't they be focussing on Animated/Classics-verse instead? :rolleyes:

Nah, they should be concentrating getting us the premium movie toys.

Are we getting Crasher/Fracture retailed here in Aus?

It will be a shame if we miss out since it is being released as a Movie line toy and tradition goes that Australian normally misses out on the last few toys in a line.

Getaway lines up well with the Club exclusive Nightbeat, but I'd probably skip it.

Crasher's the only one of these that grabs me.

Reverb looks nice, with the translucent weapons and all (yeah, I'm a sucker for translucent plastic). Plus I don't have a heliformer yet.

All of those will be mine.

Breakaway = Classics Getaway
Red Alert redeco = Classics Crank Case
Fracture = I dunno... everyone seems to want one, so I do too. Yes, I'm hopeless.

The two combaticon scouts really appeal to me. Love the new limbs i'll be able to give Bruticus (whenever I manage to find an affordable one)

But we're very likely to miss out on them. Well, that or Australia is just really behind. :(

I may get Breakaway but the others really aren't doing much for me:(

I was just about to email you the link from our buddy Eastern Speed, but you already got it ;) Well done. I was watching that and the Superion. Would like them both one day.

Wait, did we grab the Incinerators off him? Sounds familiar.

And I feel. I'm being watched.

Would u believe that Iceburn and myself passed up on him at $50 Buy it Now a year ago? Boy was I stupid. I grabbed Superion though at $50. Given that the US version of Bruticus goes for $150-160 I could see it hurting to go after the Superlink version. ;)

Yup, Twas the Incinerator guy. He seemingly has good stuff at ebay.co.my with no int'l shipping listed, but I'm sure if you wrote him, he'd ship it here anyway.

I will one day have both Superlink combiners.

As soon as i mentioned that Hasbro's Energon Bruticus normally goes for $150 US odd, one finishes for $60. :(
