Just a head up to those who collect the G1 TF re-issues.
Looks like the G1 Transformers Commemorative Series isn't completely dead yet. I noticed last night that G1 Perceptor and the three GI Insecticons have been re-issused as TRU exclusives in the TF Universe line. Same box sizes as the Commemorative series, but with more art work.
The kicker is the price. $49.99 CAN each. At least the Insecticons all come in one package. The bigger kicker is that Hasbro changed two of the three insecticon names (Bombshell and Shrapnel).

picked up the insecticons 3 pack, as I figured these would be the harder of the two to get later on. Price tag is a bit steep, as I originally heard that they were going to be $39, due to this series warming the shelves during its last run (although I managed to pick up every single one).
Lets hope Hasbro can bring out a few more Takara reissues that never made it to North America.
