I'm surprised I didn't realize this until now, but this whole set seems Autobot-oriented. All the accessories in the set are those that are used by or in the possession of the Autobots.

Not for long Sabrblade, soon the Decepticons will have the Allspark and the key. Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Nah, the Decepticons will try to steal it but Sentinel Prime will bore them to death all by himself.

If I ever get my tax money, I'm getting this set.

I admit, for awhile, I was pushing for an additional item to be included for this set, a "Tachaeon Transmitter." That would've been a nice little addition for Blitzwing and Lugnut! :)

In the end, the idea got scratched because it was cost prohibitive. That is, we didn't think people would want to pay that much more for the set as a result of its being included.

Did we do the right thing? Would you have been just as excited to buy the it, if it cost ~$40, instead of $30 and included a Tacheon Transmitter?

A Tachyon Transmitter? I don't remember hearing about that one before. Weren't you also going to include an AllSpark fragment and a stand for Swoop in this set too?

The Tacheon transmitter was the device that Lugnut and Blitzwing stole from the Autobot Elite Guard ship. It showed up in several subsequent episodes allowing Megatron to eaves drop on several other Autobot communications.

The fact that you don't even remember it, leads me to believe that we did the right thing in not incurring (or charging) for the expense of producing it! :)

I know what it IS! I remember its in-fiction appearances too.

I'm saying I don't remember it being mentioned in the dropped concepts discussions that were previously spoken of. Like the AS fragment and the Swoop stand.

And it's spelled "Tachyon".
