Were it not for Quakewave, Hexatron, and the Fansproject Not-Stunticons I'd agree with you.

Those are uber tempting.. But way out of my price range for them.. Hasbro will be a lot cheaper.

I'd say at $150 it's worth having a very convincing Masterpiece-esque Shockwave.

As for the others, your mileage may vary.

But, c'mon.

SHOCKWAVE.

Eh, I have Generations Shockwave as my Classics Shockwave. Unless Quakewave can dazzle me someway, somehow, I'm keeping a strict budget that concerns only those beautiful Generations figures unveiled yesterday. :x :x :x

This is awesome. Along with the other generations it shows that they are more g1 homages to come. At first i thought it was FOC Metroplex but then i realized it was just a normal generations figure. So i guess this means the end of the FOC line all together? Im a little dissapointed by that (if its true) considering they never released a FOC Megatron figure. I was waiting for it to be announced and i think it would of looked pretty sick. I can see why it might not release though due to the fact they messed up the scaling with the figures. Grimlock should of been leader class and Optimus would of been way better if he was bumped up to voyager. If a Megatron were to be made a deluxe figure wouldnt work and it would be dumb if he was made to be the same size as grimlock. So i guess hasbro is just like "screw it no megatron just epic generations figures (got no complaints with that) Im still waiting for my grimlock to show up in the mail though. :D

There's already a WFC Megatron in the original Generations line in 2010:

He's hardly changed in design in FOC, unlike Optimus Prime.

Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Preparing to move to the US!

Generations Shockwave is a great figure, but he comes from the time when Hasbro was desperately saving on plastic, and ends up being shorter than Generations Swindle.

And that cannot stand.

And, as I have often felt compelled to state, and has been echoed in sentiments by many of my board colleagues: one can never have too many Shockwaves.


Returning to the topic however...

G1 Metroplex?

Okay, I hate it now. [-( No, there's no point trying to convince me otherwise. If it ain't FOC, it ain't alright with me.

The dark gray United version of that mold is probably the closest analogue to his FOC body.

Hm... Metroplex could crush WFC Megatron under fist...
