I'm loving these little guys. This is the most creativity I've seen in the Transformers since Beast Wars started. I don't know how long it'll last, but I'll enjoy it while it's here.
>>7223064Given the rubbish distribution in my market, I'll probably grab a case of each assortment. At least the first wave. That's only three boxes, so it's not that big a deal.
If anyone else is in the same distribution netherworld as me, you might wanna go over the case breakdowns first before you load yourself up with doubles you might not want. They're going to offer the Shed Heads and the Backpack Bunch as their own Five Packs in Wave 2, but you should be able to get those entire Tribes from the Wave 1 packs, just spread out among the Single, Five and Eight Packs.
I'm glad I took the time to check that. That's money I can steer towards Studio Series and Siege. I'm not going to buy a lot of either of those lines, but I will grab the MicroMasters and the SS Constructicons. Then the Big Powered Box Set from Takara. If Omega is worth it, I have a long glass shelf on my wall at eye level just above my desk at home. I'll join Omega and the Zone Brothers in their base modes then litter it with BotBots and MicroMasters. That should be a fun display and a cool desk toy once it's all done. If I have enough room, I'll have them being attacked by SS Devastator.
No, I don't care about canon. I just want a fun toy to mess with and display. If the Botbots hadn't come out I'd be grabbing some of the MFT Diaclone sets to pal around with the MicroMasters and Omega. I still might get some.
