if they were the same price, I'd have went for the stickers over the paint just for some AMs. They're not though, so I've yet to buy a proper full AM figure. Got the last set of gacha AMs though, and the first lot of AMW should be shipping to me any time now, so there's that. Hopefully Takara continue to release the Microns on their own, because they're pretty darn awesome. With these, and the AMWs there's no need to buy the larger figures anyway. Win/Win. Would be nice if Hasbro would start doing the Microns on their own though. I'd rather that than the Kreons.

Still, the HUB keeps telling me it could happen...

We got official toys of Straxus and Wipe-Out, and a guy who turns into a space-bridge would make a way better Cyberverse playset than a giant hollowed-out Optimus who transforms by sitting down. But now that the Cyberverse DOTM Ark is shelfwarming so bad, Hasbro probably won't chance it.

It's worth noting that "spanner" is British English for wrench. Let's keep it at that, please.

And I'm looking forward to them, especially Dobo. I love dragonflies

Lotta' layers to that first Micron, actually.
First off, "Ratchet-Spanner" sounds like an awesomely versatile tool.
Second, Spanner was also the neutral scientist who created the space bridge in the comics, and the timing is awesome since Japan just gave us other Microns named Wheezel and Rotorbolt. All coincidence, but every time anyone pretends their Ratchet figure is using the Spanner to fix the Ground/Spacebridge, they'll be referencing Marvel continuity, consciously or not. All the more reason I gotta' get these guys, but I still need wave 2.

There's also this guy I work with: always overly happy and talking crap. He's a bit of a spanner too, but again it'd probably make more sense if you were a Brit.

You know what's funny? I posted the question without reading any of the posts (like a tool) and I thought to myself "I bet it'll be JelZe that answers this question."
Thanks buddy, you're better then Google!
