    So I've seen some pics of the set on face via daimchoc reports

    Bummer, metal hawk is in gold plastic and magnus prime doesn't have silver trailer parts just grey plastic (though I admit the angle is poor as its in box), until otherwise I...think I'm glad I skipped this yet.

    Unless voyager tidalwave is proven to have tampographed logos for his aircraft flight deck which I doubt

    Only figure I want is Pounce. Not sure if I wanna fork out on the whole set just to get him. Man I hope they release him and Wingspan as single-carded figures in the future.. Or maybe even a two-pack..

    This is why I'm looking forward to the next toy show or convention with Hasbro. I wanna see who they're gonna announce/release next!

    Not a huge difference, just different windows, different size insignias, slightly different hues of color. Biggest difference is HM Ginrai, LG's is much better.

    A photo has surfaced of the side of the box, showing a Beast Wars logo... just randomly placed on there without any explanation or relevance to this "Cybertron" set, so why is it there? Is it just a way of holding the trademark as some are suggesting because they haven't got any current plans for BW, but don't want to lose it by not using it? Or was it mistakenly left on the box from a computer template that was meant to be used on an upcoming BW set box?
    Not that it wouldn't be impossible to do a BW TR box set - we've already seen TakaraTomy do a couple of Beast Wars themed redecos, and the whole box of 5 toys doesn't have to be all BW toys either, as an "invasion" type of set only needs 2 or 3, with the rest being the invading regular bots.

    My gut feeling is that it is a simple mistake. I hope it is not, but I won't be holding my breath.
