The 30 Generations toys for the 30 year anniversary - what do we know?

[Paulbot]

Ratbat's in Hasbro's numbering? Hasbro's releasing it?

That's good news. Mine's sitting in a pile of loot at the moment.

Looks like Beast Hunters Ultimate Optimus Prime is #7.

Like with Metroplex it's only a special edition of Ultimate Optimus thats number 7. Cybertron Con Beast Hunters Ultimate Optimus Prime (what a mouth full). I'm guessing that all of the Thrilling 30 will be limited editions.

I got the impression from some of the panel reports that the 30 figures are 30 "special" toys, so not including the ordinary Generations line, but including Platinum series, Metroplex, and the SDCC exclusives. If that's the case there are a lot more blanks than we presently know about.

Like with Metroplex it's only a special edition of Ultimate Optimus thats number 7. Cybertron Con Beast Hunters Ultimate Optimus Prime (what a mouth full). I'm guessing that all of the Thrilling 30 will be limited editions.

This is my impression as well, and I think the running speculative list is misleading and incorrect. :/ Sorry Trev.

When did Ratbat get confirmed?

Also it's weird that Platinum Edition YOTS: Omega Supreme and Optimus Prime don't have the "x out of 30" on them, when Platinum Magnus does.

Yup, the Thrilling 30 line is aimed at collectors anyway so it's a good excuse to re-package existing figures and sell them at a premium price.

Absolutely gutted at hasbos handling of his.... I had planned on getting 2 of each for this special series.... Then Predaking hit me as getting included. Well I love my combines, and although I've loved him since 1986, even I was having trouble justifying 2 more. Then metroplex... Well defiantly not keeping a sealed set now coz I won't end up with2 of him...

And now here we are having beast hunters prime in the list.... I grabbed his box and checked all over for a missed sticker... Nope... I'm not getting another of a crappy toy just because has to wants me too.

If they had of told us before, I would have held off... But not making these easy to get is just mean and nasty

I'm just trying to figure it out dude - never said it was a definitive list, hence the constant revisions. As you said, it's speculative and the thread title is "what do we know?".

At the time of starting this thread I was working under the assumption that the 30 Generations for 30 years premise was taking into account pretty much all the Generations figures being released over the 12 months as many of these limited edition figures were not known about at the time.

However to prevent being misleading, since that was never my intent, here is what is definetly known:



1: Confirmed 1 of 30 SDCC Metroplex
2:
3: Confirmed 3 of 30 Platinum Edition: Ultra Magnus
4. Confirmed 4 of 30 FOC Bruticus vs Grimlock
5.
6.
7. Confirmed 7 of 30 Cybertron Con Beast Hunters Ultimate Optimus Prime

Tea pot Prime at #7? Somewhere, Wheelie sheds a tear as his hopes of making the 30 get slimmer by the day...
And why does Hasbro's numbering system seem so haphazard, almost like it was an afterthought? Releasing Omega & Prime with no numbers, numbering Magnus as 3, Predaking as10, SDCC Metro as 1, Grim v Brut as 4 and now CCBHOP as 7. What happened to 1,2,3,4,5 etc?

I'm wondering if the ACG-CON Metroplex I ordered is number 1 or if Hasbro is making him a different number simply to get an extra Metroplex sale out of the super hardcore collectors. I'm not liking this line very much as it feels like a money grab, but at the same time I can't wait to see whats on the list.
