We have a fresh set of six galleries in the Club and Convention Exclusives section of the Seibertron Galleries. These figures come straight out the BotCon 2012 Invasion Box Set where the Shattered Glass Universe collided with the Classics Universe. The Shattered Glass figures include Ultra Magnus, Soundwave, Turbo Tracks and Treadshot. On the otherside representing the Classics Universe is Gigatron and Metalhawk. This set features new heads on everyone but Tracks. Peruse these new galleries as the Invasion has begun.

:lol: Metalhawk's Visionaries head is freaking me out a bit, yes.

It is good that they went with a new head sculpt for the character, but I'm not sure the Pretender Shell look works.

Also, Treadshot with the speakers on his gun makes hit look like a Targetmaster. I was about to call foul play at him getting his own wee dude, when Soundwave doesn't come with any of his "Minicon" minions. Then I realised what it was I was looking at.
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Prowl, Astrotrain, Ramjet, Skywarp, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Blurr, Perceptor, GDO Wheelie and Springer, or 3rd Party Motobot Arcee, FP Springer, iGear Ratchet and Ironhide, City Commander (and/or Ultra Magnus), Starscream (deluxe) Coronation add-on, or Spike and Daniel in their Exo-Suits.

I'm not very impressed with the headsculpts of Soundwave, Gigatron, or Metalhawk.

I like Gigatron's head. It's a nice reference to Last Stand of The Wreckers. I only wish that the body asthetics could match the head to give us a proper Overlord.

I'm very pleased with this years set. Yes Soundwave doesn't quite look like himself. But I still think he's a very good and catchy looking figure. And as for Gigatron, be happy we got him at all. And pretender shell Metalhawk is a very unique convention piece.

I completely agree that the face reminds me of the Last Stand of the Wreckers. And I am with you - Gigatron's face and body do not go well together. One is cartoonish, the other is movie.

I suspect that within a year we'll catch news of at least some armour/accessories to turn Gigatron into a better Overlord. At least I would hope so.
