Ooh, my wallet's gonna hate me...

I took some video of the new characters and when I approached where Blurr was displayed my mouth dropped

[Mindmaster]

Oh my God, Dirge actually looks better than the Takara version. Other than that, everything that is on display there are all bought for me

In the back right of the Straxus picture, you will see a blurred image of what looks to be the third mode you've been so eager to see.

Yay, ty ty ty. I owe you for that point-out there!

So now we have seen the entire Generations line, correct?

No, my friend, this is merely a drop in the ocean. Don't forget they need to include more Classic Voyagers and possibly Leaders (Like a Classic Leader Class Optimus Prime/Megatron). Expect more figures to come!

I am pretty sure the Generations line was intended to be a deluxe class only line. But i agree, I would love to see some other classes thrown into the mix.

Ok, but think about this; it's nearly IMPOSSIBLE that an entire line would only consist of Deluxes. It would be like having an egg sandwich that had only egg and nothing else, not even the bread.

Well, Machine Wars and the first Universe line only had two main retail classes: Deluxe and Mega/Ultra. I could see Generations only having one Class, since the rest is taken up by either PCC or HFTD.

Plus, y'know, that part in the TFCC magazine where Matt Proulx from Hasbro said:

"When we made the decision to introduce the Generations line, we decided to keep the line focused on the Deluxe scale."

...Oh.

Guess I never heard of that. Although I really want to, I'm not a member of the TFCC.

Very cool use of the Drift mold for a Blurr figure. Two things stand out to me. First is the sniper rifle's side grip, which is rare, if not a first, for TF guns(reminiscent of the frequent use of side grips in Gundam beam rifles by the way).

The second thing is the way that the figure has the articulation ability to actually hold the sniper rifle by both the grip and side grip. I wonder if it will be able to hold the rifle in other positions as well?

The range of articulation in current TF figures is steadily improving and I'm quite happy about it! I've only recently picked up RotF Voyager Mindwipe and its articulation in bot mode is great, especially for its unorthodox body type and transformation design.

G1 Ratchet repaint?

I was wondering the same thing when I saw the fig to Blurr's right. Is that Ratchet peeking through? Headmold looks a bit like Energon Arcee. Paradon medic perhaps?

Classics Astrotrain has a side grip on his gun, but he's completely incapable of using it. It's just there for weapon storage in vehicle mode.

Yeah, check out the HFTD albums. Its a Rescue Ratchet repaint to the deluxe figure, just like the did to the voyager.

Hehe, maybe someday Astrotrain will finally be able to reach the side grip of the gun! You can do it, Astrotrain!
