Agreed. For $35 it is hard to resist.

Hasbro MP-10 reissue was next in line. Then BB came in with Exo-suit Spike followed by Silverstreak. Poor Sunstorm is beaten down by the Autobot's sheer numbers.

So Wheeljack entered the fray with Starscream. 2 Seekers and a lot of Autobots. Not to mention 3P fembots (Azalea and Zinnia) mixed into the Autobot ranks. With a Generations Springer to boot.

So to bolster the Decepticon ranks, Soundwave came with his minions to save the Seekers and try to balance things out. That is until UM arrives later on.

Man this power shifting is getting to me. I really want to add Legends Megatron into this mixed lot. But seriously, TT can at least provide a MP Galvatron to help out the Decepticons. LOL.

Agreed repaints and clear plastic are not cutting it. Give us something new!

G2bee can be had from Japaenese retailers for around $35-40 plus shipping, which wouldn't be much. Or you can pay $85 plus taxes and shipping from a Canadian retailer.

Did you get that from TF-Direct?

Contemplating an armor-less Magnus from them but wanted to see reviews first.

Red Soar in stock at TFSource. Anyone order this instead of the blue? I prefer the blue, I would have even waited if they released red first.

If the rumors are true, you may be getting your wish.

Sounds like most of the MP rumors are true.

Looks like Tracks, Ironhide, & Ratchet have been confirmed. The same source that told me about those also mentioned other confirmed MPs but let's wait and see. If he's right (and his track record is pretty sound over the last few years) we are getting at lease one other Autobot and two 'Cons.

Wah?! Tracks, Ironhide and Ratchet confirmed? For realz? That would be amazing.
