[Krayt]

[Zippo]

I don't think Universe Legends Hot Rod has been rleased yet.

The one I have on my desk would like to have words with you then.

Hasbro said that any of those ANimated toys on display with 'now' on their tags, are currently being released to stores. Remember, Animated wasn't going to be put on hold during the movie, but it just depends on individual stores wanting extra TFs stock on top of the all those Movie toys.

[fatbot]

man, Rodimus looks sweet! Does Arcee remind anyone of Cybertron Override? or is it just me?

[Wheel-J]

What's with ratchet's hands? :confused:

[NoenGaruth]

Those are defribulators he's holding.

[Wheel-J]

Neat huh. And this time, he has no broken head plates..

[i_amtrunks]

I think I read somewhere that Cybertron Ironhide, Ratchet and Rodimus all share a similar base body, yet all three will be different...

Very happy the toyline is continuing for now, even if the show is kaput.

[Ode to a Grasshopper]

:)The good.
More animated toys...
Yay Arcee!:D
Rodimus looks pretty awesome, I'm pretty happy with my Classics version though.
Nice to see we'll be getting a Cybertron Ratchet and Ironhide, though again gonna pass on those 2.

:(The bad...
No more Animated cartoons.:(
No Omega/Lugnut Supreme.
No Femscream, Strika, Cyclonus or Red Alert...I was really hoping to get those. Would've much rather seen some more characters that haven't been done yet rather than new-mold Hydrodrive BB and a lot of Grimlock repaints.
Wasp as a straight repaint - that BB cheery grin just isn't Wasp, I would have liked to see a Wasp/Bumblebee 2-pack a la Jetfire/Jetstorm with interchangeable heads (Green 'bee, yellow 'bee, green Wasp, yellow/mask up Wasp).
Presumably no Shockwave etc released over here post-movie.:(

[Robzy]

Rodimus, Arcee & Ratchet look fantastic!!

[Zahhak]

I read somewhere that the universe line is being put on hiatus till 2010..so does that mean these toys will still be realeased under the Animated title in same boxes and such?

[TheDirtyDigger]

Rodimus, Arcee & Ratchet look fantastic!!


Agreed although I would have liked a little more pink on Arcee.



Does Arcee remind anyone of Cybertron Override?

A bit. Mainly the alt mode.

[Stompy]

*DROOL* New animated figures. Arcee and Rodimus looks amazing. The new BB looks alright, probably needs a few extra paint apps though.

And nice robot disco in your sig Digger.

[Zippo]

I do like Rodimus, Acree and Ratchet - espy Cybertronian modes.

[sifun]

hydro bumblebee is just ugly to me.
Would get everything else if they were released. Hearts animated

[Lord_Zed]

I'm not a fan of Animated, but I must admit that the Animated style does gel better well with the G1 movie characters like Arcee and Hotrod more than the original G1's.

Hmmm If these are really comming out I may have to get Blur just so I can have the G1 movie team (except Kup and Springer).

[kup]

The one I have on my desk would like to have words with you then.

lucky you then :)

Bonus tip from Erik about Arcee: if you don't like those wings in vehicle mode, they detach.

[Zippo]

lucky you then :)

As did the two sets I saw today...
