commentary:
Ok, so all i really care about in that first link is the cliffjumper and henkei megs. theyre re-ssiues punchign gimmick prime. oy. but yea. theres a rumor they removed the chrome form the original henkei megs and are scaling this re-issues down to a delxe. which is fine by me, as long as it released over here. i'm gonna get him, btu if he's that grey, he's gonna need some gundam marker work.... Now also in the first link, we've got a photo of the robot mode for WFC/Generations/United cliffjumper. Now he is just straight bumblebee repaint, btu the head is different. this was to be expected. oh and btw, United is what theyre calling henkei over in Japan sarting in december. In the second link we have a photo of the alt mode. I'm really digging this clfiffjumper. i already love this mold. so i cant wait to get this guy.
Also in the second link we have reveals for Generations Skullgrin and Thunderwing. I'm diggin skullgrin, even if the mold is so iconically straxxus. I'm really diggin how they updated the head sculpt and made the grey a dark grey and the pink a more purpley pink. I'm really digging skullgrin, but i can see people passing on him. plus i can just come up with a fanboy reason why hsi alt mode is so similar to straxxus'. as for thunderwing, i know jack about this charcater, but this toy is pretty nice. i'm diggin the removable guns from the underside of the jet and how the jet has and energon megatron feel to it. Also, i just really dig the head sculpt and the colorization in the robot mode. this guys probably bought. not right away, but pretty high up there. i really like him
thie third link gives us the image for a brinstone repaint and photos of windcharger. both scouts. I'm gonna be honest. The brinstone repiant does jack S*** for me. It doesnt grab me at all. windcharger looks awesome though. not sure what the magnet ports are for, but he has the 3mm clip points on his arms, so i can give him a gun or something. honestly, all this 3mm clip interaction is really making me want a REcoon Ironhide from ROTF. btu yea. windcharger looks soo awesome. especially for a scout and that pricepoint. i can see him goign real fast.
Briefly befor i proceed, we've also gotten news that theyre goin to re-release generation 2 laserrod optimus prime in generations. this is awesome. this figure was repainted into R>I>D scourge, and the mold is awesome.
ok so for the third to last link up top we finally get massively photshopped photos of the power core combiners (PCC) dinobots set and the same for a constructicons set. I'm really digging both sets, surprisignly as i've not been a fan of this toyline so far. Plus, you cant tell me that having a combiner dinosaur team named "Extinction" (which i'm calling them) is not BAMF.
after that we have images of HFTD mindset and fallback. the latter is suposed to be an homage to Outback from g1, but i just dont see it. plus, they use the movie-verse brawn mold, and as much as i love that figure, its kinda a weak mold overall. Fallback is sadly probably a pass. As for Mindset, i'm not as moved by this figure as i thought i would be. i like the colors, but the missile are still annoying and something about the head sculpt just irks me. i'll probably get this figure, but not right away.
Lastly, we have mroe photos of Tracks and a couple of Jazz. Tracks i wont cover cause i talked about him last night. but wow. Look at that Jazz figure. while the alt mode seems a bit squished in that photos and the head seems a smidge too round, i am seriously digging that figure. its such a straight homage to g1. but where's the "flip out speakers" rumored to be on the toy at Botcon this year? did they scrap that idea?
Comment below on these link guys. i wanna hear what you think.
