Another week and more galleries and reviews of the new movie related Transformers toys. From what reading online, most stores including Wal-Mart, Target and Toys R Us are sticking with the June 2nd release date for the line so if there are some favorites you are keeping an eye on mark the calender. Being the lazy person that I am I just want to get the ones that I want and not have to hunt any further because of sellouts or worse, the space hoggers that prevent new stuff from being ordered.
Also Hasbro finally gave some details on the various Target "Robo-vision" exlusives. Main thing of note is the Target stuff will come with "Robo-vision" codes that when used with a decoder that unlocks online content. Also some mention of the codes being used in the Target exclusive versions of the Transformers: The Game but the details on that haven't been release yet. The main toy exclusive is a slightly shinier color version of Leader class Optimus Prime. The other items include a "movie scout" assortment named Arcee, Hardtop, and Signal Flare. These three toys are just re-colors of toys released as part of the Cybertron line from last year just as an FYI.
Galleries and reviews:
Wreckage - Part of the toy line but not in the movie. Maybe in the game but not confirmed.
Ultimate Bumblebee - $80 toy that looks pretty darn good but outside my budget. Also first shot of Leader class Brawl, a not previously mentioned toy of the line.
Legends Optimus Prime - $4 toy so don't expect much.
"Robot Replicas" TF line - Basically action figures of the robot modes of Optimus Prime and Megatron.
Deluxe Brawl
Deluxe Barricade Review - Reviewer liked it but personally the robot mode is wanting.
Deluxe Brawl Review - He liked it and so far I think I do to
Deluxe Jazz Review - Apparently has bad articulation but doesn't look to bad.
Deluxe Wreckage Review - Overall good scores and nice looking TF
Deluxe Bonecrusher Review - Clunky and ugly
Deluxe Ironhide Review - Overall solid. Good robot mode, good alt mode.
