The "asterisk" line sounds too silly for me, but I'll wait and see. I really doubt that'll come out in the US though.
I was looking at some pics of the asterisk line and there are 1 or 2 I'd love to pick up. Apparently, Red Alert is a police car version of the impreza (finally, somebody was paying attention) that comes with what may be a remolded head, or could just be sideswipes head, but it doesn't look like Streak or Smokey. Sunstreaker looks like Dead End. If they DID come out in the states, I'd be all over them, but even the BT version looks cool. Once colored, detailed pics surface, I'm sure I'll be more tempted.
Re: Transformers: Energon & Beyond
My Toys R Us had 3 huge Starscreams. They were like $49 I think.
I thought long and hard about buying this. I'm an Alternators-fan, but we don't have a Starscream and this would be about the right scale size.
The only problem with him is that he's not a "real" jet. The robot looks seriously cool though - and even G1 enough to be almost 85% of the way there.
I left them as I don't know if they'll sell THAT fast, but I'm considering buying him...
I think I'll wait until after Comic Con and bother Hasbro there if they'll be doing Alternator Decepticon Jets ever, their scale, price point, and so forth, such that even a 25th Anniversary Starscream is possible.
I hope I'm not making a mistake. I left Prime behind in the day and if it weren't for El Chuxter, I might never have gotten him. (Chux, let me know if I'm making another mistake ;) )

Couldn't tell ya. lol I saw Starscream myself and passed on him. Too expensive for me at the moment.

i wanna see what they look like. sounds like a funny little gimmick, but whatever. i just want to see how they look...
EDIT: also took some pics of my collection so far... thought i'd throw them up here...
from the left that's shock(wave)blast, tracks, windcharger, wheeljack, smokescreen, prime, silver(blue)streak, hound, (jazz)meister, sideswipe, and (special limited birth-defect edition) grimlock.

Re: Transformers: Energon & Beyond
and the rest...
you can see how i've decided to transform hound with the front wheels back into the front fender wheel wells. he doesn't have waist movement this way, but i think it looks better than the open chest cavity and the wheels just kinda hanging out in the back...

Those ARE pretty sweet. I disagree with your Hound comment, although he looks much better than I would've guessed and, ultimately, its a minor aesthetic difference.
If I get the Asterisk series, I'll switch Red Alert's head with Prowl's head...hopefully.
