Via Steve & Ethan YouTube channel we can share for you our first in-hand images of the Transformers Buzzworthy Bumblebee Studio Series Transformers The Movie Ironhide & Prowl 2-Pack.
These new 2-pack has started to show up at UK retail (together with Buzzworthy Bumblebee Studio Series AOE Grimlock reissue). This pack consists of redecos and partial retool of Studio Series Ironhide and Earthrise Prowl to resemble their final moments in the 1986 movie. This 2-pack comes with blast effects that you can attach into the new retooled chest parts. It’s also good to mention that both figures have no clear plastic pieces.
This 2-pack will be a Target exclusive in the US. See the images after the jump and then share your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

So I bought my first set recently.

And just a bit ago ordered a 2nd for pickup in the morning. And that'll be it for me.
Only figure I'd want to own a 3rd of is the Autotrooper. Have 2 Animated led by the 1 Kiss Players.
Quints are getting the Allicon head and being commanded by the Pit Bailiff.
Seekers will guard Coronation Starscream.
And of course the G2 Troopers will flank Jhiaxus.

There were several coupons for Target Circle Week at the start of the month, but those have all expired now. There was a $10 off $50 and a $25 off $100 avaliable to everyone and various 15-20 percent off coupons they gave out selectively to some people. There was also a Target Circle challenge to spend $75 in one transaction that gave you a $10 reward.

What was the coupon everyone was using on this set on Target's site?

Yeah, I'm good with the one set, a couple of extra Seekers, and the 2 customs I'm planning.
I don't really have the space to actually army-build.
Plus, I prefer to use previous moulds to fill out generic ranks in most cases.
For example, I'd use a TR and a Legends Scourge for the sweeps; and one Cyclonus each from Uni'08, TF2010, CW, and UW for the armada.
Army building with variety.

I got 3 Allicons for my 86 collection. I put the Decepticon Jet with my G1 collection.
The G2 guy and the Autotrooper guy went into my "bin of banishment"

I bought six complete sets and kept all the Autotroopers and G2 guys. I only kept one Quintesson and three Seekers. The other figures I’m trading to get more Autotroopers. It helps out everyone involved. (Link in my sig for the trading post)
Purple Heart
Oh, you traded for those. You don’t own 8 complete sets?
Thundershot
I’ve got at least two more coming thanks to trading. Possibly four…
Purple Heart
DAMMIT NOW I FEEL CHALLANGED!

You ain’t kidding! I had to shave mine out inside to get them to go on and they’re still VERY tight, hard to move the head.

That's where I'm at. I want to have at least two sets and the figures are all solid molds (skullgrin mold kind of mediocre) but another $80 doesn't sound good lol.

I'm only at one so far but if it goes on sale (again) i'd buy another

I'm still heavily debating if I want three more sets.
A second trio of Seekers wouldn't hurt really. One for the Megatron shelf, one for the Galvatron shelf.
The G2 trooper and Auto trooper I could have three with each head. And with the Autotroopers, same as the seekers, one set on the Optimus shelf, one set on the Rodimus one.
It's the Bailiffs that are holding me back. I'd want to get a handful more allicons, as I want more allicoms than bailiffs (just swapping the heads wouldn't be enough for me, they'd still have the bailiff torso, spikes, and weapons). Then I'd need more sharkticons cause the allicons would be close to equal to them, and I want more sharkticons than allicons.
A conundrum. If extra allicons were easier to acquire this be a no brainer, as isn't SS86 Gnaw getting repacked next year?
Grun Gast
Wait, 15 sets or 15 figures total (i.e. 4 Quinetesson troopers, 4 Autotroopers, 4 Seekers, 4 Cybertronian troopers)?
Purple Heart
I have a tendancy to go overboard when it comes to things like this, but I know some here are probably on their 10th set by now.
I just hope nobody posts a collection of like, 15 or something because then thats going to make me feel challenged.
DubV
Damn you people for making me feel like 4 of these might not be enough!!! I only wanted 2 but stumbled into 4 and I thought that was pretty big ballin but now….
