2005 boards members Tommybg2003 and Lance Halberd have posted images of new Transformers Animated toys. Shown in this new set of images are Rodimus Minor, and a previously unseen Oil Slick repaint.
Hasbro intends to release Rodimus and other figures shown at Botcon, someway, somehow, this year. Click on the title bar to see more!

Thanks. At least theres still a plan to get these out. It makes sense what they're doing, it's the same thing with the 25th Joes. This will at least give me a chance to get caught up on some things, as I am just getting back into collecting. I grew up on G1, sold my collection 12 years ago, and have regretted it ever since.

Shhh. Don't jinx it!

I hope the rest of the Animated figures don't become Hasbro Toy Shop exclusives or something. At least not the sooner to release ones. That spells doom for the later releases probably getting cancelled completely.
Arcee is going to get the chopping block…I can feel it.
ORIO
Ah cool. I hadn't seen those pics yet. Thanks. Hope SDCC gives us more info on the animated toys
Jarodimus
And Thundercracker & Wingblade Optimus.
Autobot Burnout
Yes. They won't be issued for a very long while (Release anything mainstream that's not ROTF related during the months following the movie's release would be idiotic for money making), but Hasbro has said they plan to release the new toys (along with the repaints of Oil Slick and Soundwave) eventually.
shadowtron
are these still being released?

oil slick is melting the pegs off the shelves down here, i'd be pissed if we got a redeco over some of the others.
i still want e. soundwave the most. and fw jazz.
Ace Convoy
I've always wanted a toy version of Hotrods car mode from the 86 Movie………now my Dreams will come true.
ORIO
Is that a new pic of his vehicle mode?
Switchblade
There's no announced release date at this time. Hasbro is still looking for someplace to distribute the remaining Animated toys.
