Well, yeah, that's basically what I'm saying: It sounded like the plan was for him to be Ultra Magnus, and someone was like "Hey, we like Magnus around here. We didn't use Sentinel Prime last time, why not make it him?"

I'm sure that Snarl will be red and Slag will be green, because that's not how I had them as a kid (though I inherit the other colorations from a friend a few years later). I always thought Slag red and Snarl green made more sense thematically.
Such an exciting list.
Stands to reason, sense Grimlock is blue instead of turquoise. Green Slag and Red Snarl are the colors I have, but I hope there is a way to get the other variants for those who did have them.
I'm with PC in that I'd be more likely to get them if Slag is red and Snarl is green.
I briefly had a turquoise Grimlock from G2. That would probably be more effective in getting me to begrudgingly open my wallet.
Just to be clear, I want a Grimlock of this mold, and the color tier runs thus:
1) Classic silver and gold
2) Turquoise/Comic
3) G2 Universe yellow/Blue
Mind, I like the blue one. I just have stronger attachments to everything else for some reason or another.

I'm with you on the turquoise. I grabbed the yellow one though because I'm a fiend for "obscure unreleased stuff" nods.
Which is why I am really interested in next year's Swoop and Sludge.
Though now I am a bit tempted by Bluelock -_- Not sure if I want a Grimlock to go with each g2 Dinobot sets... hug autistic completionist tendencies...
Yeah, TBH I'm wavering on those. I'm supposed to pass on those because I can't have TWO sets of five ginormo Dinobots, but...
I’d prefer they give the Dinobots something like the wacky Digimon colors Grimlock got over the G2 “switch the grey out for another color” but I’ll take what they’re offering.
I'm not rebuying five Leaders, no matter what colors they use. $55 a pop is just too much for me.
Yeah. I got Grimlock because my childhood T-Rex was blue, but that's the extent of my love for G2 at the leader pricepoint.
Call me when they hit clearance.
that said, if they make some fixes to the Sludge mold . . . . .
Allegedly, Amazon says that Silverbolt is supposed to be arriving on Thursday. However, as I look, I note it hasn't been shipped yet, I haven't been charged, and I'm very suspicious about the whole thing.
I think this is another one of Amazon's flubs that they occasionally pull, but we'll see tomorrow. I'm not holding my breath.

Pulse has been giving me regular shipping updates for several TFs for nearly a month now. It's always entertaining to get an e-mail telling me that my item is now expected to ship and arrive yesterday.
Suffice it to say, I don't really put much faith in TF shipping estimates right now.

Saw everyone except Solus at Target today.
Hemmed and hawed a bit and eventually picked up Slingshot. He's good.
-ZacWilliam, he makes me want to get Air Raid and I want Primus as well but I'm trying not to overspend.

So I and many, many others woke up today to find that not only was Amazon incorrect, but they mass cancelled orders for Silverbolt citing 'unavailability'. Meanwhile, others with order delivery dates in August have not had their orders cancelled.
There are a lot of super angry people right now. Fortunately, I always keep a 'just in case' preorder on at Pulse so I'm not super screwed, but I get everyone's anger.
Ouch. I've had Walmart pull that kind of crap on me before, and my response has been to not buy anything else from Walmart unless as an absolute last resort. I'd have a much harder time doing that with Amazon since I rely on them much more, but I'd absolutely be pissed off about it too.
Absolutely disgusting price.
My Target reset. Unfortunately for me, all they had for new stuff was two Grimlocks, five Red Alerts, and a bunch of SS Overload. My hunt for Flaming Mecha-Judas continues.
