So does this mean they're stopping the current line and switching over to the Icon format?

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

I hope not Primal...that would do all of those who have been faithfully collecting this line a pretty big disservice. There are obviously still so many G1 characters to do. I would really like them to complete the original G1 Autobots since they did such a great job of basically completing the Cons.

Yeah, no kidding. Some "less popular" characters like Trailbreaker, Mirage, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, would've been great!

I don't really think that the aesthetics of the G1 characters will really work in the Icons format.
And I think a lot of people's problems were with the exclusives. I mean, Prowl at least should have been mainline, not exclusive, as he's a pretty important character.
By doing popular characters as small-run exclusives, it's suddenly harder for everyone to have a 'complete' display.
I think there's still plenty of popular enough characters left, it's just that collectors have lost interest/patience with the DST line.
And for me, personally, a lot of the earlier ones did nothing for me. I can't explain it, but they don't look quite 'right' to me.

Well that's usually the case with any new property until they find their groove.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Anyway to fix it by myself or should I exchange it?
Thanks

you talking about the Popbox one? they don't work with 'good' batteries like Energizer or Duracell. if you put some cheap-ass, no brand, China batteries in, it'll work. the new Prime bust is the same.

Ratchet and Skyfire came out today at my LCS.
Couldn't pick them up, but first impressions were good.
