You're wrong. The whole wreckers concept comes from the Marvel G1 UK comic.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wreckers_(Transformers)

Though I accept the new combiner as part of the shattered grass universe.

I think he means they didn't exist in the G1 cartoon, which is indeed accurate, though I seem to recall them planning on including the Wreckers had season 4 continued.

I, too will be getting these Wreckers for my SG shelf, and maybe will commission Twin Twist and Topspin repainted into something a little more G1-esque.

Also Gunclaw, please stop spamming about your eggs. Your constant pestering about them only increases my desire to ignore them.

...not sure if trolling or actually really dumb.

Ruination is a plethora of references. This isn't G1 or anything else. It's a new universe, shared with the Prime show, War for Cybertron, Fall of Cybertron, and a few novels. These are an alternate version of the Wreckers, in a different universe. The five members are named after G1 Wreckers, the combined mode resembles Emirate Xaaron from the comics, and the combined form and color schemes are from the combiner team from the "Robots in Disguise" cartoon.

Sabrblade could/will probably tell you more.

Please leave Tech Specs out of the discussion, ok? No need attacking the person himself/herself.

I'm all for lesser known sub-groups getting some recognition in some shape or form, and I'm especially happy with Impactor and Twin Twist making an appearance. I'll be getting them, but not for a WFC shelf. Maybe I should skip Bruticus in favor of this guy.

seriously? the techspecs on our profiles we make ourselves. the ranks have nothing to with our actual ranks. if ya wanna get technical our ranks go by how many posts we have, thus making you a much lower rank.
and i smell a troll...
and can we get a mod in here or something to straighten this guy out?

Wow, a lot of posts from one guy. Guess I won't click his eggs.

Also, G1 fan here. The Wreckers combiner is awesome. Haters gonna hate.

That Gunclaw dude needs to put down the crack pipe. Some of his posts border on nonsensical.

Okay kids, tone it back a bit, there's no need to personally attack people.

Gunclaw, in regards to your eggs, I suggest you go have a look through our Rules forum, specifically the Signature Guidelines, only one picture per sig.

Everyone else, play nicely.

Xaaron? Really? I'm going back to look at those pics.

-edit-

Dammit. Now I want it.

Yeah, I'll get this. I don't really want to combine them, but Emirate Xaaron...
I really don't want to end up with two sets of the Wreckers, but I have to admit, I might.

Most likely this Wrecker giftset will be tied to the Aligned continuity, but it's not impossible it could be fitted into the "Neo" G1 or "Classics" continuity. Other popular characters from later Transformers series have been retroactively added to Generation 1 via new supplimentary fiction from figure packages, like the new Decepticon Heavy Load, and included mini comics, like the one that came with the Rodimus and Cyclonus gift set from the Reveal the Shield subline, which added Lugnut to the battle at Autobot City in the beginning of Transformers The Movie.

It looks like most/all of the FOC figs and their repaints would fall into Aligned rather than "G1-Classics" if one wants to split hairs over it. Personally I don't mind at all and am aiming more for what I call an expanded-G1 universe.

That's what I'm doing. I'm putting whatever characters I want into my "expanded G1 universe." I don't really care what the "official" story is.

Thank God I dodged the storm.

I probably won't buy it. Don't get me wrong, I'd love the Wreckers to have more recognition, as if DOTM wasn't enough, but I don't want mass repaints in my collection. Seriously, almost every transformer in a line is starting to have it's own repaint. I know, Transformers are known to have many repaints, but I don't recall a line where everyone had a repaint. There probably was one -.-

At least the repaints got some new tooling.

But yeah, it's strange how the majority of FoC Autobots are retools (of Decepticons, no less). There's 3 Autobot molds and 12 Decepticon molds; everything else is just retools/redecos.
= Optimus, Jazz, Grimlock
= Shockwave, Onslaught, Brawl, Swindle, Blast Off, Vortex, Starscream, Kickback, Soundwave, Laserbeak, Ravage, Frenzy


Glad I'm a Decepticon fan.

Actually, less TF's than before get recolors. DOTM had loads of characters that never got a repaint, compare that to ROTF. It's just more concentrated on the BBB's and the Optimus Primes now.

Very true. FOC Shockwave is going to be my Classics/NeoG1 Shockwave. It's perfect for that role. My WFC/FOC figures are all Cybertronian modes for their respective G1 characters, as far as I'm concerned.

I always thought each TF universe was different from the previous/future. Unless stated otherwise like Beast Wars was set in the future (past in story wise). Like Armada for example is not set in the same Universe or timeline as let's say Animated. Sure they use the same transformers name and may have a simular alt mode but bot mode can be different or whatnot.

I also believe I did read up the WFC/FoC timeline is somehow tied in with transformers prime? May need more clarification on that topic.

And on a final note/2 cents. The wreckers is a team made up of the best of the best, strongest of the strong and pretty much the elitist of the elite correct? And when 2 beings or more combine they become stronger, so wouldn't it be logical and wise for the wreckers to combine if their target or objective requires them to combine and gain the upper hand with superior strength and fire-power?

Gunclaw, please learn how to spell and form proper sentences. I find your posts insulting to those brave enough to read them.

Such a post is uncalled for.

Agreed. Please remember that there are plenty of people here who's first language is NOT English. Also, there are plenty of dyslexics in the world who don't need more insults.
