My guess is that they will be in the same size class as the Target Exclusive. The talk of waves would rule out something like the Tomahawk and Skystriker if there are H.I.S.S.'s and similar sized vehicles. I would expect to see a black H.I.S.S., Trouble Bubble, Stinger, Devilfish, V.A.M.P. II, F.A.N.G., Skyhawk,Water Moccasin, Silver Mirage Motorcycle, and Air Chariot with Serpentor or at least a few of those. Maybe the Triple T with Sgt. Slaughter if Hasbro gets the rights from WWE for it. |

I did read elsewhere that all of this is general retailer information, so 10 to be announced might not include the 3 target exclusive ones.
I think anything larger than the standard would probably end up a retailer exclusive...

This might be legit considering none of the Premium figures for the Transformers movie were listed on the 411 report.
As for Transformers Movie Premiums I'm still not convinced they are exclusive. It is possible but I will wait for word on Hasbro on that one. With Allspark Battles looking like they will end in March and with 12 as the number given for the line, although 14 are known which could mean the 12 was an estimate and they didn't remember the right number, that leaves 2 or maybe even 3 months with no new products on shelves if not more before Animated hits retail. Although the movie has seen that kind of gap I just don't see it happening again, besides it seems to me the movie figures were released faster than intended. It is also important to note that most of Allspark Battles was not listed on the plans. It looks like G.I. Joe and Marvel counts everything next year while most of Transformers comes in the summer and fall given information from the club newsletter and other sources. Hasbro needs to clarify this information because it is a little confusing.

In fact, the big joe vehicles are probably much smaller than the new Falcon and AT-TE(both capable of holding 20+figures).
