I think Mirage looks great. As for Grimlock, I like his T-rex mode, but I can't say I like his robot mode very much. Especially the t-rex head forming the feet. I'll still buy them both though.
Also, I can't wait to get classic jetfire. He looks awesome!

I went ahead and preordered both. Still, I don't actually have any Classics in hand. Apparently, they're already popping up at TRUs around the States. I may have read that they're also turning up in Canada, Grayfox, but I'm not fully certain of that. Anyway, I haven't come across a single one just yet. How 'bout you guys? EDIT: According to the sightings section at Seibertron.com, Classics Optimus Prime has been spotted at Zellers, in Delta, BC. If that's true, then the TF Classics are indeed already out in Canada! www.seibertron.com/sightings/item.php?item_id=411 |

I still haven't seen any around my ways, but in truth, I haven't checked the stores in a while. I'll hit some stores this weekend and let you know.

I just picked up a part time job working at one of the more common retail stores that might carry these toys. If I see some come in, I'll do what I can to hold some for those interested.

Thanks for the heads up on the sightings. I've started looking for the Classics this week. Both Zellers and Wal Mart here have the latest Cybertron deluxe wave, but little else. I'll keep watching.

Do let us know. I'll do the same. ;D |

I stopped by last night at my part time job - they had nothing. When I go in on Friday, I'll ask our backroom guys.

I just got Optimus and Megatron yesterday. They're great homages, poseable, and excellent homages. No silly gimmicks, either. You'll be able to find these easily come Oct 15 - Target's doing their quarterly reset and ditching Cybertron for the Classics! That's pretty convenient for me since I'll be working that day.  I checked a local TRU, but I still see Cybertron and Cybertron Primus series sets in the shelves, although I did see the diecast War Within Optimus and Megatron starting to show up. They look pretty nice, but I decided to pass on them. |

The actual limbs are DIe-cast, however some of the smaller parts and ball joints are made from plastic, making the figure very flimsy. Display purposes only, i'm not gonna buy any more. |

Did you get any? If so, please provide pics for the rest of us if you can. Thanks. |

Well, guess what I picked up during my lunch break. Classics Optimus Prime and Megatron. Picked them up at Wal-Mart at $19 a piece - DANG! I thought Wal-Mart was in roll-back season.  Since I'm still at work, I can't provide any pics, but I'll be sure to have some posted tonight. |

I just saw on Seibertron that Ramjet, CliffJumper, Ultra Magnus & SkyWarp also made the roster for Classics. ;D
