Yeah, this has me anxiously waiting to hear some news about a US MP 10, but I have a feeling it will probably get announced closer to San Diego Comic Con.
The new MP Starscream would cost me about the same as it costs for 3 iGear Seekers so it's an easy pass.
EDIT,
Color protos of iGears Brawn, Cosmos and Sharkticon!
I'd be more excited about Brawn if Ratchet and Ironhide would come out already. But whatevs, he's bought when he hits. I read some of the complaining about the shoulders on TFW. It's like people immediately search for any shortcoming to pin their "dealbreaker" comment to.
Wish IGear would rerelease the computer station. I held off for BBTS clearance and then then forgot to check BBTS clearance.
Holy crap, Brawn was the one and only pathetic little TF I ever owned as a child. How can I resist?
Lurker, ok spill it. Are you into TFormers or what?

Longtime fan of the movie (1986 original), even paid a pretty penny in the 90's for the Japanese laserdisc since that was the only way to get it in widescreen at the time.
I've never been really impressed with the toys though. I just couldn't get around the fact that the robot modes of the vintage line looked nothing like their cartoon counterparts. Now that my daughter spends a fair amount of time watching TF Prime and Rescue Bots I'm being drawn to the fact that finally they seem to be able to make toys properly based off their animated likenesses.
I wish there were high end options available though. It seems you either pay for a cheap plastic toy or thousands for a statue of a Bayformer Optimus with nothing in between.
The Masterpiece line is closest thing out there to a "high end" non-statue equivalent in my opinion. The Masterpiece Prime figures were mostly metal. There are also Binaltechs (Japanese versions of the Alternators) that are really complex figures and were also die cast.
It's cool man, I am just busting your balls. Jump right in, it's a GREAT time to be a Transformers fan.
Who cares? He's dead! DEAD DEAD DEAD!!

How big will that new Brawn figure be? Will it be a tiny little thing like the original toy?
Yeah, the arbitrary killing of old toys, er, characters in that movie were lame. Particularly when you've got a major character from the show like Ironhide, who was always so tough and bad-ass, look like a completely useless pantywaist in the animated movie. Decepticons were all expert marksmen in that shuttle, and later on didn't even die when Prime shot them/ran them over/etc., while the Autobots couldn't hit the broad side of a barn and went down like bowling pins.Everybody on that thing got hit harder on the series without going all probe-droid. I smell a Decepti-rat!
Poor old Wheeljack and Windcharger didn't even get a smoke-barf scene. RIP, offscreen casualties.
I kinda hate that movie.
Oh well helps me catch up on some older figs I've been trying to get and the new MP Starscream. Is anyone else here planning on getting him?
