There will be 5 MPs this year. MP25 is the same as the rumors going around (tracks/ironhide). accessories include.....something (my guess will be Raoul and a radio (blaster) in reference to season 2 episode 36 "auto-bop"). they showed a gray prototype and looks posability is good. MP21G (G2 bee) will only include a jet pack replacing the exo-suit, but the price will be adjusted and reduced

Bring it on!

US re-release tripticon, conheads set, blitzwing & astrotrain set, Perceptor & Blaster set: cassettes included looks like to be the animals, and the shoulder cannon on perceptor has some special purpose, rumored to be able to view slide shows

Keen for Blitzwing and Astrotrain, though i already have Astrotrain, it'll be interesting to see what deco it uses.

IDW Devastator is indeed Titan class, because it's designed for all ages, do not expect much in terms of individual bot's transformations (complexity i presume). displayed toy looks like a WIP hand-made (or painted) prototype and joints do not seem to move (my guess it's like the combiner wars at SDCC where the joints are hot glued?). for combiner wars, the latter half of the year will feature defensor, but for now they only showed hotspot but doesn't look too interesting. powerglide will have a purple decepticon repaint but dunno what the new name will be. other combiner wars legend class (like powerglide) include warpath and a few others that i couldn't remember. there will be a green repaint for the tank (assuming he's referring to warpath)

Can't be worse than ROTF Devs. Cautiously optimistic

The G1 reissues sound cool, especially Trypticon! Too bad they'll probably be waaaaaay overpriced...

I wish they would reissue some G1 figures I DONT have , though they are probably all too minor of characters/toys

[Shirokaze]

While reading that Devs would be simple was off-putting at first, I'm going to remain positive. As long as the individual figures are well articulated and fun to play with I think they could be on to a winner.

The reissue sets sound promising and well thought out. I only hope for some kind of local release here as importing will be way to expensive. Will be expensive here also, but it is better to have the opportunity, than not at all. The only set I don't care for are the Insecticons. The Slide show gimmick for the Perceptor and Blaster set sounds interesting, although I really don't want another Blaster.

Trypticon with electronics=instabuy
Blitzwing/Astrotrain set with Astrotrain in cartoon colours=instabuy

Trypiticon & anime version of Astrotrain would be good. And it'll kill off the ridiculous asking prices on ebay.

Anime Astrotrain would be great!
The rest I have but are great for others to get without Evilbay prices as you said

[DELTAprime]

I never got Blitzwing and I do kinda want him, but not enough to pay ebay markup. I have Astrotrain but always wanted the ehobby version, if Hasbro uses the ehobby paint scheme I'll grab him.

I don't care about Devastator's individual robot transformations as much as the combined form being good.

5 MP's doesn't sound so good to me. 1 Skywarp, 2 Exhuast, 3 Star Saber, 4 G2 Bumblebee, 5 Tracks?.

The Perceptor slide show thing seems to be a mistranslation possibly by somebody that doesn't know Perceptor is a working microscope which you could use to look at slides.
