Talk:Transformers (2007 toyline)
"the Movie line is essentially unprecedented in that it will be offering some (non Prime & Megs) characters in multiple size classes"
- In Beast Machines, we got Cheetors (not counting Night Attack) and Jetstorms in two size classes. In Cybertron, we got both a Voyager and Supreme Starscream (though one was offered only in a two-pack over here), nevermind the large number of Legends toys we got of characters. This isn't unprecedented at all. When a line has a limited number of characters, there's going to be multiple versions. It was true in Beast Machines and it's true now. --ItsWalky 02:57, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
- And then there were the Spy-Changer-sized versions of Prime, Magnus, Scourge and X-Brawn... in RID... --M Sipher 03:00, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
Wave 2
I know I've already found some Wave 2 stuff (Robot Heroes and Real Gear guys, mainly). If we know what's in Wave 2, i.e., EE or BBTS or someone has an assortment listing, is it a problem to list it? -hx 19:15, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
- The "coming soon" spoiler policy is mostly just for stuff stolen from a factory, heard from a friend of a friend who works at ILM, that leaked script which is absolutely totally the real deal I swear, or Bodycount. The club stuff we withhold out of respect; everything else is so we don't try to post information when there aren't actually reliable sources. Speculation, unreliable information, and stuff that's warrant to change really has no place here.
- I would say that things you saw on a Target shelf definitely don't fit that criteria. --Suki Brits 19:54, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
Wave I+II?
Just a random through--someone somewhere said the current wave (Concept Bumblebee/Deluxe Arcee/Dreadwing) was actually Wave III, with Waves I and II being released simultaneously (Wave II, figure-wise, consisting of solely Wreckage and Swindle). This leaves only characters that actually appeared in the movie, which I suppose makes sense, but is there any credence to this? 69.2.169.43 17:43, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
- The waves are completely wrong as listed, if anyone wants to take the time and correct them this is how they were actually released:
DELUXE -
Wave 0 - Protoform Optimus Prime, Protoform Starscream
Wave 1 - Bumblebee ('74 Version), Jazz, Barricade, Brawl, Wreckage, Scorponok
Wave 2 - Swindle, Bonecrusher
Wave 3 - Bumblebee ('09 Version), Arcee, Dreadwing
Wave 4 - Payload, Longarm, Dropkick, Final Battle Jazz, Recon Barricade
Wave 5 - Cliffjumper ('08 BB redeco), Landmine, Stockade
VOYAGER -
Wave 1 - Starscream, Ironhide, Blackout, Rachet
Wave 2 - Optimus Prime, Megatron
Wave 3 - Thundercracker, Rescue Rachet
Wave 4 - Incinerator, Evac, First Strike Optimus Prime (G1 redeco)
LEADER -
Wave 1 - Optimus Prime, Megatron
Wave 2 - Brawl
Wave 3 - Night Watch Optimus Prime, Desert Attack Brawl
You sure about that? I could have sworn I saw Bonecrusher out at the same time as the rest of the movie guys (this point is void if I+II came out at the same time, obviously.) 69.2.169.43 00:26, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
Update, OP and above poster here--I was at Wal-Mart today, and went into the Garden Center (local Wallyworld keeps new shipments/overstock of toys there--don't ask.) with the hope of finding that box of CLassics I saw a week ago and hadn't been put out yet. Instead I found a box marked "TRA MOVIE DELUXE WAVE 05 07." Upon opening it (They don't mind. Honest.) I found a Dropkick, Payload, Jazz (maybe probably two, didn't look quite as hard as I should have), Concept Bumblebee, Recon Barricade and two Dreadwings. This throws off the entire chart above, unless of course Hasbro refers to that Wave 0 as Wave 1. Which would make sense.
I guess what I'm trying to say is internally Hasbro called the protoform wave Wave 1, and Concept Bumblebees are shipping again. 69.2.169.43 22:28, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
