If it's not an exclusive I'll be disappointed somewhat (even if that would mean I missi out due to geographical handicaps). Why would hasbro choose to do another remould of Tracks? He's the least posable and most difficult to transform in the whole line (although I'm yet to purchase Grimlock and Windcharger). They must figure we're all tigers for punishment...:rolleyes:

Oh well, I'm happy that we're getting this new red vette ^_^
Otherwise I wouldn't be getting anything based on the corvette mold ie. The black kitty-bot version is really nice except for the head, I like the yellow tracks better despite him being blue and all originally but the only way to get that is to find money I don't have for the binaltech version.
Besides the fact that I think they totally irked up the legs with the whole bonnet hanging down the back making him look weird, I'd still like to get this so I have one of each mold.

I think the whole alternator line is getting out of hand for me at this point. Remolds after remolds, I mean come on now, they are plenty of cars out there that could be used. If someone tells me its because of licensing issues, I have to go with it but still its some 'ish to me.
Then they want to do a comic or cartoon based on this? I don't like it because too many similar cars.

weren't we supposed to get jets and stuff? and first a Prowl Acura? (thats the last new mold we havent seen in close up yet I think)
and WHY 3 different TFs as the same Corvette?
but I am weak, I know I will buy the BT version anyway

I was thinking (it happens sometimes)
if they can do a thrid corvette TF, then why not Sunstreaker or Trailbreaker? all they have to do is recolor them
and I'm sure that Swerve wont look like anything remotelyclose to his old toy/cartoon/comic version (unless Takara comes with another name that makes more sense)

Great Line but the cars are getting stale.
If It was me and I was doing the alternators Line I would either get the license from Mack trucks (any good semi truck company would do Im not a trucker I dont really care) and do an Optimus, Rodimus, Scourge, or Ultra Magnus to refresh the line of vehicles. Heck even if they did them based on a regular pickup truck (preferably super duty and One of the American big three). Sure the 20th anniversery Prime was great but it was a stand alone figure not an official part of the line. I'm just trying to come up with something for this line because I dont know about where your from, but in my area ( Detroit Michigan) I picked up a Side Swipe for $5.00 and Smoke Screen for $10.00 on clearance because they are collecting dust on the shelves.
P.S. and on the lighter side (joke joke) Go back to the old school of megatron get a License and make megatron into a life size desert eagle or some thing.
