Alternators news from Wal*Mart!

Post by Nevermore »

EDIT:

See the original report here:
http://forums.transfandom.com/invboard/ ... opic=31246

Now here's the correction:

http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/thread81717.html
We have received word from a very credible source that the list he gave of upcoming Transformers Alternators is NOT accurate, in specific, the following are NOT PLANNED by Hasbro:

- Blue Acura RSX
- Mazda RX-8, White #4 Street Car
- Redeco Subaru WRX
- Fire Dept. Redeco Acura RSX
Looking for a complete Energon Sky Shadow (from Superion Maximus).
Offering: Binaltech Hound, Swindle, Ravage (Corvette), Skids.
Can buy in stores: Robot Heroes Tigatron/Inferno, Ricochet/Predaking.

Now, speculation can start...

Blue Scion = Skids
Police Acura = Prowl
Blue Corvette with flame decal - return of Tracks?
Yellow Dodge Viper - Sunstreaker
White street racer Mazda - Jazz?!?
Fire Department Subaru - Red Alert? (see BTA Alert)
Blue street racer Acura - Nightbeat?!?
Purple Mazda - Shockblast?


:cool:

is it likely that wal*mart knows about this, before we do? or has hasbro simply enhanced their security?

Sorry, I just need to clarify the assortment here...

Scion XB - Blue
Acura RSX - Police Highway Patrol
Chevrolet Corvette - Blue with flame decal
Dodge Viper - Yellow redeco
Mazda RX-8 - White #4 street racer redeco
Subaru WRX - Fire Dept redeco
Acura RSX - Blue street racer redeco
Mazda RX-8 - Purple Villian

Because I originally read it as:

Scion XB
Blue Acura RSX
Police Highway Patrol Chevrolet Corvette
Blue with flame decal Dodge Viper
Yellow redeco Mazda RX-8
White #4 street racer redeco Subaru WRX
Fire Dept redeco Acura RSX
Blue street racer redeco Mazda RX-8
Purple Villian

Which, as I'm sure you can understand, confused the hell out of me.

The thought just crossed my mind that the re-released Shockblast might now be named "Shockwave", since Hasbro apparently managed to reclaim the trademark...
