MEDIA ALERT

One of the surprise reveals this week was a Generations Selects 3-Pack featuring redecos of Cosmos, Warpath and Gears as the Gobots Pathfinder, Treds and Smallfoot!  This set is a homage to the set released in 2004 by Takara Tomy.

This past week has brought on a lot of Transformers toy reveals.  One of the most surprising is a continuation of the "Comic Edition" series featuring Autobot Flame and Emirate Xaaron!  These two characters are fairly obscure today, but back during the run of the Marvel G1 comic books both characters made memorable appearances in UK exclusive stories.  Xaaron would then go on to appear in the US comics.
