Got them all...
-Prime : best Prime ever. Truck mode is perfect, transformation is challenging, robot mode is perfect.
-Meg : I love it despite the funky colors. Quite a puzzle to transform back to gun mode!
-Bumblebee : ditch the stupid trailer and he's the perfect update. Really fun.
-Starscream : again, an awesome update.
-Astrotrain : I hate the paint job, but the toy is fun, fun, fun!
-Rodimus : stupid ugly flame missile, but still pretty cool in both modes. Another excellent update.

Got Rodimus today, and I'm really pleased. Good poseability (passes the kick test!), like the colors and the sculpt.
Now I just have to decide whether to bite the bullet and get Kiss Rodimus too...

One thing I noticed about these Classics is that other than Megatron, none of them sport Autobot or Decepticon symbols other than the rub-sign. I suppose this works with the "robot in disguise" premise, but I like having those symbols on the bots. Good thing there's Reprolabels around to help me correct this little "problem".

I got bumblebee and rodimus.
I am floored with bumblebee.If only volkswagen wasn't too uppity in not making the beetle in a tf again. It really feels like an alternator in quality and transformation. Both modes look great. It would have been cool if the trailer's jet ski was detatcheabe from to be functional of what its meant to be. I only wish bumblebee had waist rotation.
Rodimus. Needs waist rotation shoulder and for arm side to side movement. It looks great in vehicle moded. Its good, makes me wish rodimus masterpiece gets made.

I got them all except prime, and i got grimlock aswell(he's the only one so far i haven't opened), i looked at the mirage but didn't really like it. I'd have to say that bumble bee is my fav then starscream although i was disapointed with his dull colors, there's no real shine to him.

Ive bought astrotrain, rodimus, bumblebee, jetfire, ramjet, grimlock, ultra magnus and skywarp set. Initially i didnt really like grimlock BUT it grows on me with time, placed next to a gen 1 dinobot it looks quite good. I initially found jetfire very impressive but im less fond now for some reason. I wasnt to fussed with prime or starscream but as UM and skywarp those toys rock, the new colours really show how good a figure the seeker mould is. The only sore point for me are the doors on the OP and BB moulds, i reckon the toys would be better without them but overall some of the best TF out in a long time.
CBC.

You might wanna pick up Mirage. It's light but the poses you can do with it are out of this world.

did you guys notice the missprint on the back of grimlock packaging? notice that astrotrain's picture is actually jetfire and is not in the same series line? please check your grimlocks. are all the packages missprints? ;D

Wish I had a Grimlock to check. It might a first run error, I've heard about it but I'm not sure if they corrected it in later releases.

more pictures of the grimlock missprint. click to enlarge picture sometimes hasbro has a different packaging art on the toys for north american and europe market. here are some pictures of different packaging from the cybertron series. front of package back has a totally different art. sometimes some packaging has spanish or french translation. but the grimlock is a missprint. so i think its more appealing to the collector. havent seen a corrected grimlock version. almost all of our philippine stocks has the missprint. based from what ive seen so far from my friends who has them. ;D

got some info how these classics are packed here in the philippines. they are boxed as 8 on a case. there are extra bumble bee and mirage in a case. but grimlock, starscream, astrotrain and rodimus are one in a case. maybe thats why these bots are rarer on the pegs
ill go and confirm these info and maybe take some pictures.

I think that is how they pack it everywhere. But it really is not that hard to find any of them.

ok, got a picture of the grimlock corrected cards. click the image to make it bigger. seems like the corrected grimlock is trickling down on our stores. they changed the words astrotrain to jetfire instead of the picture. the missprint grimlock should attract the collectors but they are sold as the same price here in the philippines. and found a new character as well, cliffjumper!. looks like bumblebee recolor.

With the success of selling TF classics in local malls here in the Philippines, Playkit (Transformers distributor in the Philippines) has distributed TF classics 2-pack set and its already avaliable in local malls. Here's the pics of the 2-pack set of Rodimus/Starscream and Bumblebee/Astrotrain that was sighted in Toy Kingdom in SM Megamall. Here's the link of this news: transformersph.blogspot.com/2007/02/tf-classics-2-pack-edition.html
