New images of Generations Scourge and G2 Optimus Prime!

I don't think much of Laser Prime, but Scourge is looking great! It looks to me as if there is a hinge in the leading edge of the wings to open them up further to make his big bat like wings in robot mode.

I think that is highly unlikely considering there is a already Generations Dreadwing figure coming out soon...I suppose it's POSSIBLE, way down the line, but I doubt it...

I'm excited about Scourge even though I'm not at all crazy about his alt-mode...I wish it was a little more similar to the G1 alt-mode...Looks decent enough in robot mode though and he is of course necessary to go with Galvatron and Cyclonus...


As for Laser Prime...The exposed hands in truck-mode is a major fail (assuming that picture is transformerd correctly, they should be WAY past that, by this point)...But if they repaint this as Nemesis Prime in the same manner they did for the original Laser Prime, I will buy it in a heartbeat...

Who? That Tokyo Toy Show exclusive repaint of ROTF Mindwipe?
Habsro is in no way limited by that but of course they could use another name, maybe Smokescreen? Or even B.B. if you think they can go that obscure.

These pictures just make prime look like a horrible arrangement of colors. I like Scourge though.

Really looking forward to this pair of figures. Prime's sword is no doubt a homage to Movie Prime's Swiss Army knife.

Off topic: For the record, Cyclonus was originally Skywarp. Just saying.

WHY THE HECK IS SCOURGE's EYES BLUE!!!!

They are RED in the cartoon


They are RED in the Marvel comics


They are RED in the Dreamwave and IDW comics



They are RED in every singly G1 Scourge toy



And even though the sweeps had red eyes too in the G1 cartoon the convention exclusive version had yellow eyes...

So basically Scourge has never had Blue eyes before


Not to be such an angry nerd here

but I really don't like the Blue eyes....
but its nothing some red paint applications won't fix

prime mold is hideous. Hopefully there is a repaint on the way. Scourge is cool.

Is there plans to release a trailer later, or are they just making things easy for a third party?

I do still like the figure overall, though.

The trailer hitch forms his sword in robot mode.

As i've said before, you can't improve on perfection, Prime proves that.

Scourge ... ugh, I hate the wings. I don't know why they had to go for a more "realistic" looking alt mode, they could have just stuck with his original alt mode and lose that big pointless wings.

Prime looks far inferior to the original. I was really excited for that one, but not so much anymore. I'll still probably pick one up if I ever see it and have the cash, but frankly won't be too upset if I never find one.

Scourge looks really cool in robot mode, alt mode just does nothing for me, though. Still, need to get him to go with Cyclonus and Galvatron.

And every time I see a topic title or headline somewhere saying Generations, G2 Prime, and Scourge all together, I forget for a second that it's G1 Scourge and think they've gone ahead with a repaint of the generations G2 OP as RID Scourge. Which, while it'd probably be a good idea for a repaint, I have no real reason to care, since I already have the RID version, and there's not a thing I can see in pics of this new mold that makes me think it's in any way better.
