Generations GDO China Import Voyager Class Assortment Released at US Retail - Transformers News - TFW2005

As for the other ones, there's also Wheelie that's missing from that pile, which is using the Special Ops Jazz RTS mold, but with different colors. Springer as well who I forgot which mold he uses...

As for CJ, yup he's very identical to TFP CJ, just tweaked a bit different in transforming and a bit bigger. But since you already got him, I'm sure you'll know :)

The GDO's are TRU exclusive and were released in Asia therefore the Chinese language on them and I forget what the GDO actually stand for, but on the TWF site you can find out. Sorry didn't get a chance to look for the actual thread. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info. What a weird series with the wild G2-ish colors. I actually still haven't opened the TF: Prime CJ I bought last spring. I'll do a side by side "in package" comparison when I get home. If the head is the same then the GDO version is getting returned.

Can't wait for the latest wave of FoC figs to hit my area... those look great.

Ya if you don't open it up, than they'll def. look the same, only when you transform can you see the real difference other than that the GDO one is just biggier by an inch. Which FOC figures are you looking forward? Bruticus? I'm waiting for Amazon to ship their exclusive and I have the SDCC one he def is a beaut.

out of the four(springer, swerve, wheelie, cliff jumper), springer is the one to get. Color scheme is perfect and comes with his sword![IMG]http://imageshack.us/a/img802/5853/dscn0719l.jpg[/IMG

I didn't have a chance to play last night, so no comparisons, but from what you and porter are telling me, I'm keeping the GDO and ditching the TF: Prime version (which is MOC if anyone wants him). That right there seals the deal for me. I don't even care that the vehicle isn't G1.
Oh yeah,.. I definitely need that Springer.

As far as the FoC figs I want,.. hell yes on Bruticus! I'm loving that they're releasing each bot individually like back in the day. And I'm not sure what wave he is, but FoC Starscream is a must for me as well. Pretty much anything Optimus, Megatron, Starscream, and Soundwave, are all always must haves for me.

Springer!! I also picked up Wheelie, but I have a feeling I'll return him. I really don't like this version of him (the head is good, but I'm not liking him as Jazz), but it looks like he's one per case/per shipment and since I'm not sure how long these Chinese figures will be around I grabbed him.

Bruticus is wave 2 and the rest I believe are wave 3, you can get these guys from BBTS but it doesn’t look like you have a problem hunting for TF’s 

Ya I have to keep it Hasbro or else I’ll lose it. Takara def. does do more variations when it comes to the TFs and they look sick.

Dang I’m envious:P Wish I could find those GDO’s, only one I’ve found is CJ, but I’m in scalper land so that doesn’t help at all.

I bought an Arcee and I'm thinking about going back for a Vehicon.

Appreciating Prime's.

This week and last week MP Thundercracker has poured into stores around here. This is after they already had a shipment last month, sold out, then removed shelf stickers.

The Vehicon car is really badass looking so I did want to own one of them, but I have the regular version (still unopened) and didn't see the need for another one. I bought Arcee yesterday because the cycle just looked so nice in package that I couldn't resist... there was a regular (not FE) version of her on the pegs too and the FE edition is definitely nicer... more paint apps! The FE CJ was pretty disappointing. The wheels are just unpainted black. The GDO I got is all nice and shiny with silver wheels.

Yeah, thanks for the heads up, I'd rather go without than buy anything from TRU.com.
Every single time I've bought anything from them, I've had terrible experiences. I don;t like the site's business practices, and their customer service is the worst I've ever experienced. And that includes Fun Publishing (TF Club/Botcon guys).

Hell, I'd be happy to see the "crappy Prime FEs", let alone the GDO and regular Prime stuff.

All I see is a sea of Bumblebee. :(
