Will buy these :D
My Take II answer - Combiner Wars Wave 1 is Firefly, Skydive, Alpha Bravo, Dragstrip, Silverbolt and Optimus Prime. So Ultra Prime has those limbs. Motormaster is Wave 2, and has his 'normal' limbs (plus Offroad.) It will be interesting to see if Silverbolt's box has Drag Strip or Air Raid.Quote:

After AoE, it seems my wallet will be going back to hating me. I can easily skip Optimus and Thundercracker (as much as I like the idea, I am happy with the deluxe) but the combiners are must buys.
From an online retailer! :rolleyes:
Or if Hasbro AU stuffs up, and we only get the first wave peg warming and skip waves two and threeQuote:

Finally a chance to buy some decent combiners without needing to sell my liver like the 3P combiners are.
I think I'll be sticking with the traditional Superion so will be waiting for Silverbolt to serve as the torso. Well as traditional as possible with Alpha Bravo and Powerglide there.
TFU.info, on twitter, has listed some US prices

Combiner Wars Pricepoints:
Legends $9.99
Deluxe $16.99
Voyager $24.99
Leader $44.99
A Combiner War gestalt is $103 USD complete (including gun)Quote:
RID Pricepoints:
One step - $9.99
Legion - $5.99
warrior- $14.99
three step changers 19.99
12" Titan heroes 12.99
6" Titan Guardians -5.99
So much cheaper than a third-party one. Although at Myer, US$103 = AU$350, so I guess we'll see.:pQuote:

The Hasbro rep at BotCon told me that the 2015 Legends toys would have Collector Cards (to replace the targetmaster), so maybe all of the size-classes will have Cards as well.Quote:

I was trying to write down all the things on display at this pre-NYCC event, but had to give up when I got the RID displays.
There appeared to be four tables...
1 - Generations
Legends Huffer - orange Optimus remould
Deluxe Firefly
Deluxe Skydive
Deluxe Alpha Bravo
Voyager Optimus Prime (forms core of Ultra Prime)
Voyager Motormaster - grey Optimus remould (forms core of Motormaster)
Leader Thundercracker - blue Jetfire remould
(other Generations toys from the first two waves are likely to be on display at NYCC)
2 - Kreo
- RID Buildsets (with Kreons and a Protoform? capsule/pod/coffin?)
Optimus (truck) w/ 4 Kreons
Underbite (purple vehicle) w/ 3 Kreons
Bumblebee (yellow car) w/ 3 Kreons
Sideswipe (red car) w/ 2 Kreons
Strongarm (blue offroad) w/ 2 Kreons
- RID Custom W1
Bumblebee (yellow)
??? (dark blue)
Optimus (red)
??? (green)
- Gen1 Small Battle Changers (convertible)
Bumblebee (car)
Grimlock (dinosaur)
Starscream (jet)
Optimus (truck cab)
- Gen1 big Battle Changers (convertible) (all these years of fans demanding convertible Kreo... careful what you wish for, because these aren't good)
Optimus (truck and trailer - only truck cab is robot mode)
Megatron (tank - the "new" Gen1 form of Megatron toys now)
Ratchet (ambulance)
Soundwave (jet - similar to TFCybertron) WITH Laserbeak, Ravage, Rumble, Frenzy.
- Blind packs (don't appear to be MicroCHANGERS this time)
(12 Gen1 characters in historical outfits.... WTF?... no more characters left to convert???)
3 - RID Deluxe(& Voyager?)3-Step Changer
-Voyager?3-Step Changer
Grimlock (green)
Bumblebee (yellow car - at the back...I hope it's not a Voyagerwell, it's still a Voyager price-point)
- Deluxe
Bumblebee (yellow car - at the front and in card)
Optimus (truck)
Strongarm (blue/white offroad)
Steeljaw (light blue racecar)
Grimlock (green)
4 - RID One-step, Legion, Titan 6-inch, Titan electronic
- One-step (right of table)
Steeljaw (light blue car)
Bumblebee (yellow)
Strongarm white/blue (and in card)
Grimlock (green)
Sideswipe (red - similar to One-Step Movie Drift)
- Legion (left of table)
Bumblebee (yellow)
Optimus (red truck)
Grimlock (green)
Sideswipe (red car)
Strongarm (white/blue)
- Titan Electronic (back of table - the big ones)
Steeljaw (blue)
Optimus (blue/red)
Sideswipe (red)
Bumblebee (yellow)
- Titan 6-inch (in front of big Electronic ones - should be same size as SDCC Gen1 Titans)
Steeljaw (light blue)
Optimus (red/blue)
Bumblebee (yellow)
Actually, that should be names on everything there except the 12 Kreo blind-packs... which I could probably work out if I wanted to waste the time.
