I've been wondering, is Lugnut in the Generations toy line or is he for the movie toys?

Neither: as explained before, both lines will be merged into a single line called "Reveal the Shield" this coming spring.

Jazz' speakers!!!

Thanks god these are mostly deluxe, because I must have them all

[synthetik]

Purple lugnut is kinda gross.

Perceptor is starting to look better and better.
Wreckgar is just amazingness. Hopefully they have a repaint/head retool version so they can ride each other like there's no (Roboerotic) tomorrow.

*Points at the Jazz figure* HE HAS THE SPEAKERS! HE HAS THE SPEAKERS!!! AAAAHHH!!! *nerdgasm*

But seriously, these all actually look great. Also, is Lugnut movie style or G1 Style? Or simply just "non-Animated" style? either way, I love him!

umm, i would say he is 90% animated and 10% universe

Definitely loving that Lugnut mold. I hope it's big enough!!!

Jazz is a mixed bag. The mold itself is good (love the speakers), but the unpainted white plastic looks bad in those shots, and adding the black unpainted wheels to that makes his altmode look too much like a cheap toy than a proper Transformer.

I think the only one shown there that is actually from TU is Lugnut. All of the others, Tracks included, don't show any real sign of a high gloss paint, or anything really that metallic. I will be taking that Lugnut over Hasbros, but I'll still end up buying both.

I like Jazz's speakers, too bad they can't pop onto his hips.

Perceptor is looking fantastic. I really like the headsculpt.

Wreck-Gar doesn't very bland in that pictures (which is why I believe it's a Hasbro TS) but still good overall mould wise.

All of these are easy pick ups for me.

[Stormrider]

Wow! Jazz is awesome. I love the speakers. What a great touch, in addition to making him spot on.

Perceptor is cool, but why the long face?

Wreck-Gar is dinomite! Will he be a scout or deluxe?

I get that, but it's becoming harder to tell who is supposed to represent the Classics side and the Movie side. I wanna say Lugnut is based of the movie formers (much like Lockdown was), but I can't really tell for sure. I'm going to buy him anyways, but I don't know if I should display him with my Classics figures or not.

[Dr. Caelus]

What the heck?

Perceptor's chest panel, the part that became his 'stage' in his G1 toy, is hinged.

Does it form the rear window of his truck mode? Shape is roughly right...

Or could it possibly be that, somewhere in all that kibble, Perceptor is hiding some sort of vaguely microscope-like tertiary alternate mode??!!



Additionally, since they've been doing nonG1 characters in Classics, does anyone else forsee Perceptor being retooled into Cybertron Red Alert in late 2011 or early 2012? Not saying I want Hasbro to do so, it's just that the general profile is VERY similar to his Cybertron Defense Robot Mode.

i am so glad that generations is in deluxe size. it just works so well. of course i dont mind lugnut and grapple in voyager size on account of a few big 'bots doesnt hurt. Hasbro/takara have really outdone themselves.

[Jazz-1982]

I'm really happy with all these figures but I've been wondering.........Just how many figures will eventually be in this line? They have already announced 22 and we've seen pictures of all of them except Frenzy/Rumbe, Wheeljack and Reflector (I suppose we're still waiting for clear pics of Scourge too). I wonder how many more figures they'll release, I'm pretty sure Classics was only 20 something - anyone got any ideas?

[SKYWARPED_128]

Jazz and Wreck-Gar are definite must buys. I think someone already mentioned this earlier in the post, but white plastic generally makes a TF look cheap. Jazz will probably get a couple of sprays from a can of GS gloss coat once I get him out of the blister pack.

Still thinking if I should add Perceptor to the list.

This is probably just me, but Lugnut's metallic purple highlights look out of place. It just clashes with the otherwise matter paint scheme. I think I'll stick with the Hasbro version. Bot and alt modes look awesome, though.

[WeatherManNX01]

Perceptor is cool, but why the long face?

I've noticed that about a lot of the figures coming out. Jazz, Perceptor, Grapple, Kup...while we don't get smiling Transformers, the looks on these guys' faces just seems to be...well, they look downright depressed to me.

Not counting Legends class, Classics was 13 (three Voyagers, nine Deluxes, one Combiner). Universe was 38 (one Supreme, nine Ultras, 10 Voyagers, 16 Deluxes, two Combiners). Generations has 22 or so, depending on how you count (I've got 22 in the Generations proper counting Rumble and Frenzy and two figures; add one if you count HftD Sea Spray, four more if you add Jazz, Tracks, Windcharger, and Grapple).

At least, that's what I count. I think I got them all.

Really liking Lugnut a lot. Will get him on sight.

It's balanced out by the smirk on that new Legends Starscream.

[Prime Riblet]

There is so little I can say about this. Every single one of these figures is freaking unbelieveably awesome. Seriously, I am going to be spending so much money, I don't know if I will be able to hide the fact from my GF. Such a dilemma.

[Supreme Convoy]

Wow, great line up of toys!

Perceptor's mold is pretty cool, even sans-microscope.

And I'm happy too see Jazz come with speakers! Never would've think of that accessory.

[Carnivius_Prime]

I agree with Jazz's white plastic making him look cheap and crappy but I think his car form looks crap either way. Robot mode looks decent for Jazz though no I'm no fan of his G1 incarnation and I can't see myself buying it at all. Was very disappointed with the shoddiness of some of the Universe/Classics 2.0 figures such as Prowl (flimsy piece of crap) so it's put me off G1 character toys like that.

More I see Wreck Gar the more he looks appealing to me. Think he's going from a maybe to a very almost definite buy.

Perceptor looks boring as usual.

Lugnnut's a maybe. He looks movie-like enough to just about fit into my main collection but not until I've managed to obtain a whole load of other figures first that I want much more.

[Rated X]

I love them all !!! Glad Wreck Gar is a motorcycle unlike I originally thought ???

But what is this "United" thing ??? Is it from Euorpe ??? Since when does the non-asian market get better repaints. I really wish the companies would unite and do away with all that "Henkei version" and "Hasbro version" and "Takara version" and now "United version". They should do away with all that crap and just have one universal version with the best G! accurate color scheme, no chrome, no metallic or any un-needed extras. Just a good solid paint scheme for everyone.
