Description This is Toys R Us exclusive Generations GDO deluxe Springer.

No I don't know what GDO stands for, don't care really either. GDOs were called Asian exclusives and were not meant for US release. Then Hasbro changed its mind and released them over here with Chinese lettering.

Anyway, I love/hate that I finally have a Springer. Hate that he has chicken feet and that he's a movie design while love his face sculpt. He's rather moody actually. I would be too if I resembled a preggy grasshopper at certain angles.

TRU was a madhouse this morning when I got him. I was lucky enough to grab Springer and didn't bother looking for Laserbeak. I really wanted him, but fudge that.

I will have better pics when I'm more awake and sober. Right now I'm tipsy on chocolate cake vodka, whoo. :3

Nope--didn't see him at Toys'r'us--but that's alright. I'm holding out for a G1 version some day. Head on this guy isn't bad though. But the rest of him seems too flimsy to make it as a brawler or Wrecker he's supposed to be.

I wish his helicopter blades were swords like TFA Leader Megs, that woulda tied this look a little better.

In hindsight, I wish got Warbot Defender. I swore I'd never pay that much for a figure and avoided him since he was 3rd. My mistake. [link]

ARGH CAN'T WAIT FOR TOMORROW WHEN I HAVE TIME TO HUNT FOR HIM AND HIS FELLOW EXCLUSIVES. I'm definitely getting him, Swerve, and Cliffjumper (I have G1 Wheelie and he's MORE than enough). I also need to find the newly-released Scouts, of whom I am getting everyone but Brawl. (By the time I get MP Soundwave, I'm going to have a scrapload of Laserbeaks, between G1, GDO, and MP O_O)

Good luck on your hunt. ^^ All the new releases and exclusives are causing a feeding frenzy. Last week and this week the first time I've seen TRU's Transformers section that busy in a long time.

I only swung by one, and I found Springer's Wrecking buddy Sandstorm. I squeed.

Congrats! Hope they keep these stocked instead of adding DOTM figures. >.>
