why are they getting pulled? what's the big deal with that? They are being posted as KO, so i don't see the problem.

Hasbro's / TomyTakara's doing. It's all copyright and trademark infringement reasoning.

Shit really hit the fan when:
- KO Metroplex was released in February. Takara has an Encore one due in September.
- Hasbro announced a 30th Anniversary Optimus Prime at Botcon. This will be the USDM version of Encore Convoy.

I'm starting to think Derry got in some type of legal trouble ... or he's on vacation.

I've been sending him emails every Monday for the past 3 weeks. No reply.

I saw some of the new Aniimated series toys at Wal-Mart the other day. It looked like the rack had been picked clean except for 2 Ratchet figures. They looked pretty cool.

Are the kids watching TF Animated? If you're interested, or anyone here, I have the first 27 episodes in .avi (DivX) format. Get the 360's media stream going to get the shows on a TV.

The toys look Identical to the cartoon. It's simply amazing.

Also, the cartoon is a non-stop stream of G1 characters. :bowdown:
