BBTS Has More Transformers Henkei Pre-Orders!

Here are the links to the pre-orders, but there are no accompanying pictures at this time, and apparently there are a couple of unnamed characters as well:
C-06 Jetfire/Skyfire
D-04 Ramjet
C-07 Unnamed Cybertron 1
C-08 Unnamed Cybertron 2
Is one of the other Autobots going to be the obvious choice of Cliffjumper? Who is the other unnamed Bot!?! And what will the paint applications of this Jetfire look like? Superior to his CLASSICS brother, or not?
All questions worth discussing here!
what think that nice is it? guys? 
thanks

The other Cybertron could be Ultra Magnus.

Seems like the only logical option, seeing as Cliffjumper and him are the only Classics not already announced for Henkai save the ugly Prime release that came with Megatron in the 2-pack.
I just thought of something:
Could Takara/Tomy release the missing seekers as well? Skywarp is very likely, but how about Thundercracker, Dirge and Thrust? Sure they were BotCon exlusives from Hasbro, but that shouldn't have to stop Takara/Tomy. Especially since Hasbro shouldn't care less since their set already sold out.

Don't quote me on this, but I think something prevents that along the lines of Hasbro creating the Classics line and so TakTom can only release the molds that Hasbro let them release. Mind you, if they were to authorise the manufacture of Henkai Thundercracker, Thrust and Dirge it would be more money in the Transformers coffers so I see no reason why not. I wouldn't want to be someone who bought Games of Deception if that happened.

The unnamed Henkei bots are apparently going to be Sunstreaker and Prowl.

Well according to that thread the Henkai versions are out a month later than the Universe versions. I think I'll wait until I see images of TakTom's versions and then buy the ones I prefer if the releases are that close together.

JAPANESE TF CLASSICS: Jetfire / Skyfire and Dirge have just been added to the Henkei Classics menu. Each will presumably receive some sort of chrome paint job upgrade, and be packaged in the cool Japanese boxes. http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/menu.aspx?menu=943&ca tegory=4165

Dirge? Although it would be cool, I don't see him anywhere on that page. And even if he would be released, surely there woldn't be any chrome - there isn't any on the original.

Odds are that they mean Ramjet as he was announced at the same time as Jetfire

And, in Classics anyway, is the same mold as Dirge.

If it was Dirge, there'd be way more commotion than this. The news of BotCon toys getting a release that won't cost you a kidney would be front paged everywhere.

Who says you have to, mate? You don't HAVE to buy every TF item that gets released!
................Or do you?? Perhaps the power of the Matrix compels you to do so?

It isn't just Transformers. I was including everything I collect into that remark, like Revoltech, Kamen Rider and anime figures.
