Backwards foot again.
I know the legs were like that on the original toy, but the knees probably don't bend that way on these toys.

The hips look less narrow.

Actually, I'm suspecting that the actual knee joints will be in Silverbolt's feet rather that in the limbs' chest. The connector port is directly connected to the head I see now, we'll have to see how it all works out.
And sweet! The connector has two ratchets, one for the hinge and a swiveling peg too!

But Silverbolt's arms appear to form Superion's thighs. Silverbolt's legs appear to make up a portion of Superion's torso.JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Backwards foot again.

Wait... are you saying Silverbolt is making a handstand in torso mode?

And notice that Silverbolt's torso winds up on Superion's crotch.

Would it be so hard for these people to include a size comparison shot?

Well I'll be! Nice catch
With this, I'll have to give the designers credit for thinking outside the box.

Yup, the first wave has 3 Aerialbots and 1 Stunticon, for the second wave the opposite is true: 1 Aerialbot and 3 Stunticons. So expect to see a Menasor with Air Raid for an arm.

These Combiner Wars figures are top notch. Theyloo so goodon their ownAND they combine! How far we've come since FoC Bruticus.
Granted, the designers were limited by the designs from the game, but still.

I look forward to Superion.
Menasor however doesn't look good to me at all right now.

Not sure I mentioned this but I fully expect Takara to repaint one of the jets into Slingshot or whomever is missing as a store exclusive or something like that.

Fireflight, the best Aerialbot! I have a lot of nostalgia attached to this red-and-white jetguy, and the fact that he looks amazing does nothing but make me very, very happy.

Are there any reported sightings of these Combiner Wars toys? And if not, how could this blogger have these toys in his possession?

on the subject of the Motor-Master mold i do agree that it would be a better Magnus IF it had a car carrier trailer or a missile launcher trailer or sadly a magic mushroom for something like PE AOE Optimus
but what exactly is Generation 3? from what i can figure out it would be in the G1 family

Argument? What argument? I cannot argue what I know to be true. To do so would mean it is my opinion.
But, to satisfy your wish, I would say that Alpha Bravo is a cool addition to the new generation of toys and would love to see more new characters. I am sure we will see at least two more new figures as far as the combiners go. Since this is generations I would love to see Bulkhead created for the G3 line. Or maybe even Lugnut. But, I would say the BEST news for this line is the possibility of an Ultra Magnus being released. And the part is that it seems to be its own mold. Not some lame Optimus repaint.

So they can rename Fireflight but Slingshot has to be new character. 
I get it's the helicopter mode but does anyone know why he still couldn't be Slingshot? It wouldn't be the first time they changed a character's alt mode.

Yeah there is no "G3" as it were, it's something he made up himself.
