In-Hand Images: Transformers Generations: Fall of Cybertron Deluxe Wave 3

Interesting. These guys seem to come with much bigger weapons than their FOC wave 1 counterparts. Is Hasbro adding back in a bit of value to their Deluxe figures at last? I'd rather see that extra plastic go back into the figures for some added size and/or mass, but maybe that's to come sometime in the future with new molds?

I'm not sure how to express my excitement.

im totally getting all of these. this is the wave i have been waiting for.

Is it just me, or am I the only one that noticed that the weapons are actually from the Fall Of Cybertorn game?

All musts except Air Raid, he was the troll character in Broken Hope (Escalation map, he could solo for hours and other players would be annoyed like hell).

F to the Yes!
Okay, a few stumbles there, but all improvements over the wave 1 versions of the remolded guys, and the new ones look good. I don't really like the Insecticon as one of the classic 3, but he's nice (Repugnus repaint pls?) and I absolutely love all the weapons. Magnus Sword and gun combo is BA!

Starscream has that mini scrapmaker machinegun that the Flyers have in Multiplayer mode (and Bumblebee in the intro game sequence)

Sideswipe has the pistol Optimus has on the cover of the game and it's the weapon of the Scout class in multiplayer.

Kickback has the Shredder, a weapon for flyers in Multiplayer. Kind of overpowered ingame.

I love these 3 weapons

It's a shame that there are only two new molds of five figures in Wave 3, but the remolds are so good.

^ Yeah, I was gonna say, I think they're all from the game.

It appears so. Finally! Maybe Hasbro is listening.

Not that it matters, since I want these guys I'm sure none of the stores will have them. BUMBLEBEE REPAINTS FOREVER!

I doubt it would fit on the Voyager, FoC Prime's head is TINY. And you're probably right about the availability. :p

These do all look pretty amazing. Magnus is a bit too blue but the sweet combinable weapons look amazing. All the weapons look pretty amazing, especially that BFG. Sideswipe's bot mode still isn't great but the colors are definitely an improvement over Jazz. Starscream looks good but his arms don't look too secure in bot mode, much like Cybertron Thundercracker. Fireflight (Air Raid? Whatever...) looks surprisingly good. I might repurpose his small sword for someone else, but we'll see. I'm really liking these armaments!

Now, to figure out which ones will be shortpacked... Probably Starscream, since everyone will want him.

Really liking these combining weapons, also that they are all from the game, hope they continue with that. My personal fave has gotta be Starscream, cuz he's comes with my favorite gun from the game.

Magnus looks better... marginally. Not digging that he gets lumped with a sword.

Starscream looks the most promising, but that always comes with the caveat of being a new seeker mold. Still wish he came with null rays instead.

Sideswipe also looks better than Jazz, but again only so much given that it's the same mold. Ridiculous oversized accessories will never make up for how small these things are.

Air Raid, Firefight, I don't give a damn whoever he is, he's an Aerialbot, so no. He looks completely awful anyway.

Kickback only looks good for insecticon army building since he looks like a generic, but again I'm not a big fan of the insecticons either.

So basically all I see of any value here is Starscream and the mass quantity of repaints to follow.
