It's basically a re-issue of the 5 Armada bots that were repainted in the Cybertron line.
Good for those who missed the better figures in their original and Cybertron release (Prime, Longrack, Blurr) but the awful repaint of Cyclonus and the Runamuck repaint are horrendous figures.
After the Crumplezone pack, I can't help but shake the feeling that Hasbro just brought back the Universe line to flog off excess stock from the past few years.
I'm just waiting for Universe Supreme Starscream and then in a few years time, I'm sure we'll be seeing Universe Animated Voyager Megatron and Universe Movie Leader Brawl...
-
Yeah, I dont own any of the moulds, and the three "good" repaints you mentioned are the ones I would like to have most. Especially Longrack, imo just a totally unexpected tribute to one my favourite beasties.
-
I was hoping that they were releasing Beast Wars Neo Longrack, but then I read further.
Dammit, Hasbro.
-
To be fair, I'm not sure that Hasbro have put the Longrack mould through the QC paces. Or if TakaraTomy still have the mould.
Longrack is not hard to find or especially expensive on eBay, SilverDragon. You should be able to find one for about $50 shipped. Which is pretty decent for a decade old mega-sized toy, especially an exclusive one which has never been repainted or reissued (:

sooooooooooo its not Cybetron Blurrs mould?
-
Err, yes it is Roller.
Best I can do for now is the thumbnail pic here:

From the left: Buzzsaw & longrack in vehicle mode, prime just floating there in robot mode, and runamuck and blurr having a chin wag.

seems like it's worth buying since Buzzsaw has been a pretty "difficult" deluxe to get in the Cybertron Series.
packing wise...it looks pretty weird having those 5 figures in one.
here's a pic that i've outsourced to my own imageshack

Thanks Ice, it seems to be back up now, and if anyone else like me always has issues with the crapshack, (imageshack) here's a link to my photobucket:

EDIT: Buzzsaw difficult? I had no problems with seeing that figure everywhere back in the day. Just a shame I couldn't help you on that one then. :( Ah well.
But yea, if you really need these, then this would be the pack to get to fill up your cybertron line as these really are exactly as they were in the cybertron line.
-
yeah...it was kind of difficult when i tried to complete mine
in the end, i've to buy a lot of 24 deluxes that includes 2 buzzsaw.
that's how i got mine and the Series is now complete
-
:)I knew there was a reason I didn't buy 3 of those 5 moulds before in the Cybertron line, I may actually get this box set.
