Rumble and Frenzy look amazing I'm certainly buying both. Im not a huge fan of the tracks mold, so wheeljack maybe not. And Scourge looks sweet. the prime I might get just cause its rime.

Funny- before I saw these new pics I was unimpressed by Frenzy/Rumble and excited about Prime. Now that I've looked at the pics I'm excited for Frenzy/Rumble and sort of bummed by Prime.

Prime: He looked better to me in small photos. Now that I've seen him in better detail I'm not sure how much I like the overall design. The hanging panels on the arms look kind of bad and the head sculpt is leaving me cold.

Not writing him off though. I know that when I'm standing in the store holding him in my hand I will probably not be able to resist.

I can't find the article right off. There was a listing, I think from Takara's United line, that listed Tracks as a Wheeljack repaint. It's definitely more than fan speculation.

Oilspill wrote:Personally I think they designed the mould with both figures in mind from the outset. Maybe the guy who did Sunstreaker/Sideswipe did it. Last time, Hasbro told him to just repaint Sunstreaker as Sideswipe, but then he worked out with a few tweaks he could make the transformation work differently to give each bot a different look.

This is probably true. I'd bet Hasbro does that with a lot of figures at this point. At any rate, it doesn't really matter, IMHO. We are getting both Wheeljack and Tracks. I'm happy.

Though I'd like to re-iterate someone else's sentiment. My Decepticon shelf is looking pretty sparse compared to the Autobots.

Yeah, and half the shelf are the same mould! (Good thing I like that mould)

Wheeljack is a must beyond must I have the Altenator Wheeljack Mustang and he has been my only wheeljack for long time and is not even in his colors. But this, is most definitely and certainly perfection of the highest calibur.

I have looked and looked and all I see is a United version of Wheeljack. No Reveal the Shield, or any of the sorts. But def worth the $30

Prime is a definite pass unless I can find him cheap at retail. Rumble and Frenzy I will pick up at retail whenever that is.

Someone from a toy seller/distributor had anonymously sent an email from Takara Tomy with Transformers United figure listings to Seibertron and Tracks was officially listed as a Wheeljack repaint.

I've said it once and I'll say it again, lets get some more Decepticons in this line. My shelf is the same all Seekers!!

We already know we are getting Reflector but haven't heard about plans for anymore Decepticons in this line yet.

Wheeljack - awesome, can't wait, Scourge - hmm, not as good as Cyclonus, Rumble & Frenzy - no thanks. I am happy with my PE Rumble and Frenzy thanks. They look like Rumble & Frenzy, they are the right size and they even turn into a nice pair of Targetmasters for WfC Soundwave.
