Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

Any idea what AoE Deluxe Stinger's gonna look like?

Probably a Red version of wave 3 deluxe bumblebee? With of course a different head.

Disclosure: Not a question -- Just a fun story.

I'm currently in the USA. I wasn't able to be over here for BotCon unfortunately, but as the theme was rubbish, who really cares?

Anyway. I walked into a Comic and Collectibles shop in Anaheim called Phat Collectibles. I checked out their Action Figures section and it was nice to see a case and a half full of Transformers from all generations on display and for sale. There was a little tub of random action figure parts in the section, and riffling through, I found the chain gun, saw and maces for Fox Kids Rhinox. There was a Fox Kids Rhinox for sale in the cabinet, without the accessories, so I called the guy behind the desk over and told him to match them up and put the price up!

Doesn't Stinger have a different alt mode? They'll probably reshell the vehicle parts. W3 DLX BB doesn't look as bad as I'd first thought.

Like that'd stop HasTak.

I really wish Stinger was like a wave 1 fig, and then Bumblebee can be the retool for a change. Not enough Decepticons in the AoE line for my liking!

Probably why I've enjoyed these toys so much

So who have your Autobots been fighting against? One thing I really loved about Beast Wars (and Machine Wars) was the nearly even split between goodies and baddies. I collected most of my early BW toys in versus sets, so each time I got a Maximal, there was also a Predacon for him to fight.

I've personally been using Decepticons from other lines to fight, just yesterday I had AoE Drift battling Battle In Space Cyclonus, but of course, that's completely "out of universe." And while I do enjoy playing out-of-universe campaigns from time to time, I do also like to play "in-universe", and this option is limited atm because I only have Galvatron for my AoE 'Bots to battle.

That's funny and very honest of you

Has there been any update of a Hasbro MP Sideswipe release since it was mentioned in that leaked/hacked list of upcoming Hasbro product a while ago?
