    Those were two great episodes. And I agree, they do remind me of the formulation of BWs. I seem to recall that just before the frenetic finales of each season, there was a lot of "nothing"/filler episodes. This was great.

    I cannot wait for the Omega Supreme toy. It just bugs me they got him back to full power and then he disappears. Oh, and in relation to the toy, I'll buy regardless but I'm a bit concerned given that its to be Supreme Class figure and if we look at the last two Supreme's this might be one terrible toy. I'll still buy it tho I do hope it's a kick@ss toy. From the episode, the transformation looks straightforward enough but of course those ain't necessarily the best thing to go by

    I think it was at Botcon that they confirmed that season 3 has been in development since May so I guesstimate it should premiere around the same time as last year i.e. Christmas, that would give it sufficient lead time untill the next movie as well. Plus we have seen and heard of TFA characters that haven't been seen onscreen yet (besides Oil Slick).

    SDCC is 3 weeks away so there will probably be more info released then.
    Which brings us to where we are today...

    Word is that Oil Slick is gonna be a comics-only character (But sometimes word is wrong... )

    This doesn't really help out at all for Season 3...

    Remind me? I can think of a bunch of characters who've been onscreen with no sign of toys (Mix, Scrapper, Blurr, Wasp, Omega, Wreck-Gar, Shockwave, Seeker clones) but not the other way around.

    Both the timing of the toys and the cartoon were made a giant mess due to Hasbro's incompetence. I am sure that all the TFs that appeared in the show have at least partially developed molds and will be released within the year and the next otherwise the characters would not have existed in the show.

    Tsk, Tsk, Hasbro, you probably could have made a greater profit of the line if you had gotten your act together.

    This cropped pic shows and names a few that wern't in season 1 or 2:

    Upcoming characters

    The second character is apparently Jetstorm and the eighth is apparently Jetfire.

    Oh Kudos to them for not making Blurr annoying (I hate him in G1)
    I know, its torture.... fortunately Ive got Naruto and Bleach to tide me by

    Bumblebee has accepted his mantle as the most annoying bot in the show seeing that Blurr is the fastest.. I mean he has to excel at something ya know.

    Well Omega, Shockwave and the clones have been partially confirmed and very heavily hinted at.

    But I am surprised that we have yet to see stolen prototypes and whatnot for more figures, since the US is already up to Wave 3 figures, that does not leave much time for new figures for wave 5-6 onwards to be announced (unless we are going to get a tonne of repaints).

    Maybe that Elite Guard Bumblez is hinting at something encroaching in Season 3?
