That's how air got Cliffjumper, Gears and Acid Storm lol. But around here, by my count, Winners hasn't had TF figures since CW Ironhide, except for the RiD minions, they had them.

That would be cool if that happened this time around.

You know what really Grinds my Gears....Walgreen's US exclusives!

Apparently Amazon.com will have the other two outside of the two larger sets, Chaos and other set, as their exclusive...

*sigh*

I think there was some confusion, based on what I read, here's what I think I have pieced together. Robot Kingdom put up a listing for an amazon exclusive 2 pack of Cloudraker and Wingspan with picture of Fastlane and Pounce. Confusing, right? Well, they changed the listing to Walgreens and removed the pictures. I THINK, we have the Cloudraker/Wingspan set that will have to be gotten online (I have mine on the way), Fastlane from Velocitron and Pounce from Siege. This is ridiculous though. Both should have been done as 2 packs and as regular retail Internationally to maximize sales...but no....we get the craptastic Leader Megs for 75 bucks.
Point is, I think the whole idea of an Amazon Fastlane/Pounce set is a debunked rumor...for now anyway.

Yeah, there is alot of confusing info on the Amazon exclusive incl the two from the larger sets...I guess we will find out soon in either case...I think the two sets are nice, and it could be that if there is an Amazon exclu including those two, there might be some different colouring...we will see...still hate the Clones that are coming out are linked just to Walgreens...Grr..

Thats been confirmed to be a mistake. The other two are not getting reissued through a boxset.

So a re-issue of the Chaos and other set's Clones are dead in the water? Where was this confirmed if you dont mind me asking? I hope they put more of the Chaos and other set on shelves at least, to make up for the pain in getting anything from Walgreens outside of the US...

Thanks,
