Something.
Also, I believe it's because the WfC figure is already awesome as it is.

Prime got an upgrade i the game. Megatron is in the same body as WFC. No need for a new toy.

I agree with the comments before me, Megatron does get an upgrade.
But I also insist that the mold is absolutely perfect, in my opinion.
As for fatty Prime: It's Optimus Prime. I'm surprised there's no remold/retool of BB.
I just looked at the gallery again, and the sticker on the Combaticons' package made me chuckle:
BUILD GIANT ROBOT! That brings back a good wave of memories.
Re: SDCC 2012 Coverage: Transformers Generations: Fall of Cybertron Gallery
Posted: Fri Jul 13, 2012 9:16 amFirst things first. Sideswipe looks a lot better then Jazz, and it looks like his head is a lot bigger and sits higher up then Jazz' noggin'. Can anyone confirm or comment on that (Seibs, lookin' at you here kid)
I like the look of all of them. I'm not sold that "air raid" is really named "air raid". For all we know "Kickback" is still named "Insecticon" I would love it if he isn't but you know.
Sideswipe, like I said look better then Jazz and I think most agree. Don't like the gun, but that could be a combination of display/prototype/picture.
Magnus looks great, but I'm kinda surprised they don't have him packin' a white gun, a hammer that Hasbro clearly wants him to have, and shoulder rockets. Whatever, Dr. Wu will have something for that i'm sure.
Everyone doesn't like how the Combaticons are put together, but you gotta remember what they show are weak testshots and prototypes. Why do you think SS & UM look so rich and bold compared to say Jazz and Prime? It's because they are the hand painted test shots they use for official photos and often times they look like the have some sort of palsy because of the test shots weak plastics. Times that by 5 for Bruticus (mind you lets face it, that combination kinda sucks and don't look anything like the game model.
It's kinda funny that fans wanted a deluxe combiner forever and when we get one it's not up to snuff and on top of that we now have 4 different versions (so far) of the molds.

It was yesterday at 12:30 Pacific Time.

Posted: Fri Jul 13, 2012 12:54 pmSigh. Hope is fading for a new completed Dinobot team in toy form. 
Re: SDCC 2012 Coverage: Transformers Generations: Fall of Cybertron Gallery
Posted: Fri Jul 13, 2012 1:25 pmI just thought of something, possibly others have had the same idea too:
I think we need (brace yourselves, I'm going to say it) another Bumblebee.
You know, something Scout/Cyberverse Commander size, to scale nicely with WfC OP and consequently FoC Grimlock.
Because WfC BB is too big.
Yes? No? Heresy?

Re: SDCC 2012 Coverage: Transformers Generations: Fall of Cybertron Gallery
Posted: Fri Jul 13, 2012 1:28 pmYou're right. But we also need a FoC Megatron, Perceptor, Cliffjumper, and the rest of the Dinobots & Insecticons. Also, a Skywarp and Thundercracker would be good.Va'al wrote:I just thought of something, possibly others have had the same idea too:

Don't forget Arcee! Fembots need lovin' too
Re: SDCC 2012 Coverage: Transformers Generations: Fall of Cybertron Gallery
Posted: Fri Jul 13, 2012 1:33 pma WFC styled Arcee would be all I'd need for that character. Assuming it'd be a good toy, and not...Airachnid 2.0 or something.

See, personally, I like my WfC Megatron, don't really care for CJ that much, nor the Insecticons (I know, this is outrageous). The rest of the Dinobots yes, possibly, but again, not overly fussed.
Now Perceptor would be nice..
As for the Seekers, I'm sure it won't take long for Hasbro to start the repaints of this new repaint line. (Unless it's Asia exclusive repaints. Which will then appear in the rest of the world once the line is over.)
They have 40 figures to fill in, and so far a good percentage is repaints/remolds/retools.
Re: SDCC 2012 Coverage: Transformers Generations: Fall of Cybertron Gallery
Posted: Fri Jul 13, 2012 1:47 pmAnother good idea, though to my knowledge no indication she's in FoC yet. Only listed Thundercracker & Skywarp cause they're straght repaints of 'Scream.JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Don't forget Arcee! Fembots need lovin' too

Well that's balls. Time stamp on my end shows he posted that on Thursday so I was eagerly waiting to see more today. Like the rest of the insecticons, dinobots, and Ironhide/Ratchet.
****, now we have to wait until wonderfest. Ha ha ha.

Q2: Which TFs did not make it into the game, and where would they want the series to head next?
A2: Arcee. Being a female character, her animation skeleton would have required twice as much animation, which was too much for their system.

But just what exactly makes females have twice as much animation? That don't make much sense.
