QUOTE(Paladin @ Feb 5 2012, 09:14 PM)  I love that throughout all of this there's still a BBTS banner add saying "TF Prime First Edition For Sale." Well they do still have the first set of deluxes available. -------------------- How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?

So the RiD Cliffjumper (who is the best version of Prime CLiffjumper, IMO) says "Series 2" on the packaging. I thought he was in the first wave and all that.
What was Series 1? |

QUOTE(gargunkle @ Feb 6 2012, 02:01 PM) Wave 1 - Soundwave WJ BB CJ Wave 2 - Ratchet Arcee BB CJ Cliffjumper in both waves? Weird. Need to get a Wheeljack if he's only in wave 1. |

Should be hopefully not too difficult for you. Wheeljack is two per case, unlike Soundwave 1 per case (but Soundwave may be in wave 3? I forget now).
There were wave breakdowns from robotkingdom linked in one of these threads... |

What was Series 1? Offhand, I'd say First Edition. But Prime Cyberverse is also calling itself Series 2 (with DOTM being Series 1), so it might be the DOTM line. --------------------  Looking for; 2005 Botcon Ratchet, Junker Classics Optimus Prime (for parts) |

Well, it's a lot of toys, 9, in 3 waves, so you're gonna have a lot of 2 and 1s. 3 Bumblebee's in Wave 2 is crazy though. I would think 2 Ratchets, 2 Arcees, as they're the new molds that wave. I guess Hasbro still thinks that even though Arcee is a major character on the show she won't sell as well as Bumblebee. |

Hasbro did that with Animated Ratchet and Blackarachnia...and I remember seeing them linger on shelves for months, especially Ratchet. |

I would like to think I don't go on complaining about Bumblebees, but let me go on the record now as saying there are too many Bumblebees. Okay, I'm done now. |

That whole redeco wave was easy to find both in SE and NW Michigan for at least a year or two. As compared to Lazorbeak, who I saw (two of) once at the TRU I worked at that summer.

I think I liked it better when we found out about canceled things after they were already canceled.

OhcrapIamsostupid.
I messed up and forgot a word in that last questioning post. I meant to ask: So the RiD Cyberverse Legion Cliffjumper (who is the best version of Prime CLiffjumper, IMO) says "Series 2" on the packaging. I thought he was in the first wave and all that. Sorry about that. Anyway, what was Series 1 of the Cyberverse Legion Class? |

I got my TakaraTomy FE Vehicon and Cliffjumper today. They're pretty nice, CJ especially (who is a pain, well both of them are, to transform). Also the Vehicon was very mistransformed in his packaging.
