Well, I guess we know now the status of the Frenzy/Rumble molds!

I honestly didn't think these would be reissued given how widely KOed they've been.

A Suzuki Swift! W T F. lol Such a downgrade from the Nissan 370Z and Skyline GTR that were Optimus and Megatron.

Great news with Rumble/Frenzy. But just when you thought they were over-using the the Soundwave mold, we get yet another Laserbeak. Really?!?! There were really no other G1 cassettes to fill that spot? (unless they're ONLY going for those that appeared in the cartoon)

Well, at least they bundle it with Overkill, Rumble and Frenzy :p

So, why oh why can't Bumblebee be a VW Beetle when they use that as the alt mode for the Donald Duck TF?

I assume that the Alternity line suppose to be mordern cars. And the last VW beetle were from 10 yrs ago.

I'm holding out to see some better pictures of BB. I'm not really sold on what the chest looks like. Shoulders are very BT Overdrive.

Overkill, Rumble & Frenzy and even Donald are looking sharp.

I think this has been stated before. VW does not want they cars transforming into weapons of war, or how ever they put it.

It to bad they didn't think about using something like a Mini or a Mazda 3.

Damnit. Why do I only ever need 50% of the Cassette sets?! If only I could mix and match!

Cheers!

Wrong. The correct answer should have been "because you touch yourself at night" (but, your answer is half right:p)

Well I for one wouldn't want a Mazda 3 Transformer... the engine light would come on every time I Transform it (car joke)

Hmm... I sorta like Alternity BB. I'm not sure about the hood covering the windshield in bot mode though. That looks a bit off. I also would have preferred BB as a Nissan March because it's more bubble-looking than the Suzuki Swift. Well, I'm hoping the actual toy will look so much better, but I'll probably end up getting him anyhow.

Makes sense, as it was a Disney movie, and this is how they're able to get around the Volkswagen licensing.
