Transformers Toy Rumours (must note a source)

WFC-E41 Runabout has been said to be found on the Target computers in America, which is an expected redeco of Runamuck, and the Earthrise number hasn't been used yet.

I hope he's not yet another Target Exclusive.

From an ebay auction CG images of a Generations Bluestreak toy have been revealed... which apparently was found as an unconfirmed listing back in May, so might be something for Earthrise at some point.

Guessing it'll be general release this time unlike Siege. Prowl went from general to Amazon exclusive and Smokescreen went from Gen Selects to general. Why do I get the feeling we'll get and Earthrise Barricade?

Studio Series Devastator boxset, apparently found on a UK wholesaler website, so until it is officially revealed, or listed at a major retailer, it's yet to be confirmed.
The pricing is somewhere between £200-280 (about AU$380-530). No other details though, like when and what will be in the box.

Well if this is true, it is hardly a surprise... it was just the estimated price that might have been the stumbling block for Hasbro to do it. But considering they have been offering the really expensive Japanese import MP toys in the last year or so through their online store (and exclusive outlets), they probably thought that it wouldn't look as bad in comparison.

If this is a genuine, then it appears to be the regular releases but with Rampage replaced by Skipjack (who is also getting a separate release). Can't see any new accessories as those four parts on the left hand side are parts of Rampage/Skipjack and Mixmaster. Long Haul might have some new gold/yellow paint apps on him or that could just be a reflection, not sure.

This TFW news posting has that image in the post above, but stretched sideways, which you can see from the "Transformers" writing on the box, looks right (the image above appears to have been squished from the sides for some strange reason).

It's gonna be a big box.

Are those new beast wars figures?

Are those new beast wars figures?

Kingdom is part 3 of WFC and is Beast Wars themed, so probably yes. Inferno is likely to be the G1 character Grapple redeco though.
