Seibertron member Roddy let us know that site sponsor Big Bad Toy Store have posted images of Transformers United Wheeljack and Rumble/Frenzy. At this time, Wheeljack is just a prototype and only one of the Rumble/Frenzy pair is pictured (you know the debate). Click on the images below to be taken to their listings.

That is so Wheeljack, he is so mine. And why do I get the sneaky suspicion that Frenzy and Rumble are just repaints of eachother, don't combine at all, and will be released without saying which is which?

Oh nice! They made some serious changes to the Tracks mold.

So... Frenzy and Rumble will BOTH be blue???
That 'll be interesting for the FIR RIB / FIB RIR discussion.
I'm liking Scourge and OP too!

yeah its a bummer that they don't look like they're gonna combine but its still gonna be pretty awesome to have two similar tanks roving around my shelves.

and also. weve gotta take into account how weird a tank would look if it were half red and half blue...


im excited

G1 Wheeljack was my very first Transformer (I was / am a big Lancia Stratos fan) followed by Soundwave (never got Rumble and Frenzy) so I am thrilled. Can't wait for these along with most of the G1-inspired releases. Kup, Tracks, Scourge, etc will fill a lot of holes in my collection. Thanks Hasbro for giving me a second chance :)

Okay let me get this straight:
Blurr, Kup, Tracks, Jazz, G2 Optimus, Perceptor, Lugnut, Scourge, Wreck Gar, Thunderwing, Grapple, Windcharger and Rumble & Frenzy are all coming out in the next 6-9 months on top of MP Rodimus and the Protector.

My wife is going to leave me over all this!

Damn the Rumble sucks !!! It seems nobody can get him right. The 3rd party one was so damn small and now this ??? Those Crazy Devy upgrades are not looking so bad anymore...

definately sexiness here. Blue tapeguy has hands I notice, so I wonder if red will have Piledrivers or if there's an alternate transformation for there arms.

I'm also a little concerned we won't get an awesome RiD Scourge repaint out of that G2 Prime figure since the original nameholder is also in the line.

I'm liking the look of Wheeljack - everyone who complained that they couldn't make a good Wheeljack figure from the Tracks mold can sit down and be quiet now. :-$
Superb!! :BOT:

I also like the look of Frenzy actually, well his robot mode looks quite good anyway. :-?

Scourge looks much better than the original pic we saw. :CON:

Now the only figure we haven't seen yet is Reflector...... :shock:

Looking forward to seeing Wheeljack's paint mode, the car looks sweet!!

I think Scourge will look great next to Universe Cyclonus. Unfortunately in the Western New York area we haven't gotten past wave 1 yet of Generations & HFTD. I finally managed to find a single Darkmount the other day at a Target. Oh & there was a Tuner Skids there too :-(

Scourge is a bit dissappointing. They really clipped his wings just to give him that damn "flying wing" mold. Why do they always have to create some kind of a new modern twist ??? They kept Cyclonus's jet mode fairly G1 accurate. Why did they have to mess with Scourge ??? They should have made him transform into the boat shaped hoverplane we all love. Something like Seaspray without propellers. I understand the need to not make toys transform into cassette decks, cannons and microscopes for kids to have more fun, but I honestly think Scourge's G1 vechicle mode was fine. Plus his legs seem kinda small making him look top heavy. Maybe its just the photo angle.

Impossible Toys...hear my call and give us a G1 accurate Scourge !!!

Wow, that new G2 Laser Rod Optimus Prime looks amazing! Well, looks like I've got another Optimus to add to my my rather large and ever growing collection of Optimus Primes! :lol:

Sure we will, he will just be called Nemesis Prime.

So I wonder what the release date for the Hasbro versions of Kup, Scourge, Wheeljack, Wreckgar, G2 Prime, Perceptor, and Rumble/Frenzy will be.

I sure hope they do. Only problem will be where to display my Alternity Black Convoy. But of course I still hope they do a Nemesis Prime. 8)

This line is amazing. I haven't wanted so much of a line since...well, Classics & Universe. :lol:

I wasn't expecting such an extensive remold for Wheeljack, I'm pleasantly surprised. Rumble & Frenzy look cool, if a little large to go with any version of Soundwave. Scourge looks MUCH better than the original pics would have us believe. An easy buy. Now that means I have to track down the Botcon version eventually though...
