TFW2005 sponsor BigBadToyStore has also posted up a pre-order page for Deep Dive. The previously unannounced figure will be the lone new figure in the Transformers 2011 Voyager Wave 2 assortment. At this time, it is unknown if Deep Dive will be a unique mold or a repaint. Regardless, the figure is due out in January 2011.

For those tracking the Stunticon name story, The Daily Mail have got hold of it, after it was first covered in print by The Scottish Daily Record.

Thanks.. hadn't seen it for some reason.

Yep. They're wave 4. The ones being discussed are wave 5.

Did we know about heavytread with groundspike? Its on BBTS and I hadn't noticed it before

Just had an email back from Hasbro identical to the response Siebertron got.

^ They did Google "Nexus Maximus". But they had Safe Search turned on, so they didn't get the pertinent results.

Just heard about this one, its nexus maximus all over again.
They really need to get into the habit of googling the names, it took me 2 seconds to find a wikipedia article on the term and its connotations.

I said just two from each team from a previous wave, not that they have to be the same or opposite limbs from the previous team. I'm not bothered whether we get two arms from one team and two legs from the other or one arm and one leg of each, it still counts as two from each team. And that hasn't been broken yet. It may do in future, we don't know until it is but I'm not expecting it.
Edgewise
Always? As in a total of twice. Or really just 1 and a half times so far. And note, the first mix'n'match repaints had 1 arm and 1 leg from each set. The Stunticons have 2 Rallybot arms and 2 Destructicon legs. So they did mix'n'match but they did not follow the same pattern. They're mixing'n'matching their mixing'n'matching! There is no formal rule and actually going away from mixing'n'matching will be a way to mix things up.
Due to the uniqueness of the Dinobots I do expect them to keep them together for a repaint. The Constructicons might get a new commander. But also, they might not get to repaints of these molds before the TF3 line, so a repaint of the Dinobots might be a store exclusive on it's own. Or the store could have a wave with the non-mixed Dinobots and the Constructicons repaint could be mixed up with 1, 2, or 3 other previous 5-packs as well.

I'd have put money on us missing stuff later on. The Constructicons/Dinobots are due late this year and it's around that point of the year and at the end of lines that stuff goes "missing". I've ordered mine already.
Thundershot
That's what I was thinking, too…
Rotorstorm
Thats exactly what I was going to say.
Anyone got any info on if Hasbro are going to release these toys or are they going to crap out on us again? (if so i'll import constructicons and dinobots and be done with PCC)
The more important question is if they are going to rename the set for international release or hasbro US has revealed that they really control what the UK gets? If so are responsible for our crap wave selection and tardy releases and incomplete lines.
I think the reason UKers can't believe they called the toy spastic is because it would be like calling it "****** with stuntedcons".
Blitz.
I guess that could also be seen as news that the UK might not get the later wave of PCC toys…

i'd love a Dinoking repaint… and they definitely shouldn't mix this set… just like you said, straight repaint…
Foster
I didn't say "mix," I was looking for a straight repaint. Just because they've been mixing it up doesn't mean they are required to continue doing so.

Two Constructicons and two Dinobots with an Autobot jet and an Autobot tank would make for an interesting team.
They always combine a wave's two drones, I can't see them doing otherwise.
exomega255
they can't "mix" dinobot drones with other drones though. For me, it'd be weird, unless they plan another "animal PCC drone set". Maybe Seacons or Predacons
Foster
Or we could all just get back on topic.
…
I'm pretty convinced by now that we're going to see the Dinobots repainted next spring. There's going to be a need for shelf filler up to the movie line. Pretty dang good excuse to get a Dinoking homage up in these shelves.
