Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

My 1986 Blurr holds my Targetmaster Blurr's shield (I've long lost my original G1 Blurr's shield)

Hey all

To save me researching (cause i am lazy) is there any TF's just out in the US or coming out over next 4 weeks that would be good acquisitions ?
My mate is going over and said he would get me stuff but i am having a mindblank on what to get !!!
Trying to think of things i cannot get here

One for the car guys. Does anyone else think its strange that G1 Camshaft turns into an RX-7 which is a car with a Rotary engine and hence no camshaft? They didn't think that one through :).

First Edition stuff has started arriving at TRU's, as has the MP10 and Thunder Cracker.
stuff over a year old may turn up in Ross Stores or similar discount outlets.

Recent waves of Prime toys have also started appearing there, Deluxe Vehicon, Airachnid ?, Hotshot, the repaint of Wheeljack, knockout etc,
voyager starscream has been out for a while, Voyager Thunderwing and UltraMagnus have started appearing also.

Fall of Cybertron Combaticons.

how big is your friends suitcase

I've always considered it an intentional self aware irony:D

Generations Ultimate Gift Set (Deluxe repainted RTS Optimus and Jazz and Legends repainted Motormaster and Thundercracker) is a real bargain in the US :)
The Combat Hero Optimus Prime would suit a future third party release quite nicely if you don't have Botcon Ultra Magnus :)

Have you got MP10 yet? Should be easier to find and a bit cheaper over in the USA.

You probably already have the answer but it's approximately exactly
600mm H x 405mm W x 225mm D
