Universe Classics Pics

[Robzy]

Deluxe Bluestreak
- In Classic colours! Woot!

I'm so stoked... he's one of my favourite characters!

The biggest surprise is Ravage! I imagine Hasbro will be taking the Takara MP3 Soundwave and releasing it as a deluxe at some point in the Universe line if he's supposed to fit into Soundwave. Kinda sucks for those of us who paid $70 for MP3 Soundwave.

My understanding of this was that Ravage fits inside the TRU Classics/G1 reissue Soundwave. I don't think Hasbro are touching Music Label Soundwave from what I read in the Botcon Q&A.

Deluxe Cheetor
- This one really really bugs me. It's nothing against Cheetor as a toy. It's that he's so all alone in this and he's not even a "real life" machine that Hasbro keep harping on that they want.

Agreed!

TRANSFORMERS UNIVERSE LEGENDS
Brawn (looks awesome!)
Beachcomber (looks awesome!)

Have you seen these? Any links/pics?

Now.... the last issue we have is distribution. How many of those repaints will make it downunder? For once, I would like to see them here. Unlike TFM, these repaints mean something.

I worry too! With all the TFs coming out (Animated etc...), not to mention the overflow of shelf warming movie figs a lot of stores have at the moment, I wonder if we'll see them all. I hope so (but my wallet doesn't )

'Tis may mean a great year for collecting even though itll likely keep me away from finishing G1 again. But I ain't complaining.

You're not alone!
