Got a preorder cancelled notification from BBTS this morning on the Hydrodrive BB... disappointing :(

First sign of the Animated line coming to an early end?

I figured this would happen. It seemed like kind of a weak wave anyway. Now I just have to worry about Arcee becoming some kind of exclusive or meeting the same fate. Please Hasbro, give us ARCEE!

I hope it won't be an exclusive... :(

This definitely concerns me as well, as I'd like to be able to purchase both figures instead of possibly hunting them down at over inflated pricing.

Like I said in the "Yoyager" thread, I hope it means that there will be two other brand new Voyagers. (4 new deluxe, 6 voyager).

I hate to be a bubble buster, but I really doubt that it means more toys. I think it spells the end of the line. YTV was the only station that carried the Animated Toon (in canada) and the Cartoon network in the states was the only one there(I think) and the toys are moderate sellers. With the Movie coming out/economic down turn I doubt hasbro wants to take a chance investing in Animated when they now have to convince retailers to carry the new line even though sales are slipping. I am not going to complain. It was a great run and I am really happy that it did not become diluted with repaints.

we better get the two deluxes, that's all i really want out of this line, then i can sit back and watch the shelves warm for another two years until they pull their heads out of their tailpipes

Well I guess there will be no more animated toys to tempt me... I still wanted a Rodimus Prime figure though. I never really wanted Golfire Grimlock and Hydrodive BB anyway.

Shit. Not that I cared too much about these, but It's not a good sign.
