Cliffjumper, Skullgrin and Thunderwing. They're three very big names in Hasbro's 2011 Transformers: Generations lineup, and now we get a nice look at their official images. Cliffjumper is a repaint of Cybertronian Bumblebee, along with a new head sculpt. Similar circumstances for Skullgrin, as he has a new head sculpt and paint job off the Darkmount (Straxus) mold. Finally, the figure with a brand spanking new mold, a beloved Transformers Comic character, Thunderwing. Feast your eyes on the pictures below!

Backpack on T-Wing's a little on the big side, but not a deal breaker. Especially if the bulk there is the supposedly removable drone. Which I think it is. Skullgrin looks nice too. Now I'm not sure if I should pick him up, or Straxus! >_<
(I suppose these are the kinds of decisions we /want/ to have though)
Wasn't to sure about Skullgrin, but that picture just sold him to me. Thunderwing was ever an instant buy from the first time I saw pictures of him a couple months back. Cybertronian CJ... Pass (not into the WfC designs anywho.)
love all 3, will get them all. but 2011 is still far away, plus i still havnt been able to find the cybertronian megatron & soundwave. need to buy 2 of those each first. i really wish they would make more wfc stuff. the characters looked great in the game. please give us a starscream!
All of them are looking. Got to say that I'm a little disappointed in the fact that Skullgrin has the same weapon as Darkmount, so it may not be worth getting both. They both look pretty good but I quite like the skeletal look of Skullgrin. I hope that reddish colour on him isn't too pink though, and rather more red.
Thunderwing looks a little puny but he still looks pretty cool.
Cliffjumper also looks pretty cool, too bad it's the exact same mold as BB minus the head. Same issue as Skullgrin, too bad they didn't give him new weapons or something.
Wow, that is one wicked head sculpt on Skullgrin. Literally and figuratively.
Cliffjumper looks good, and it's nice to have a new head for a change.
As for Thunderwing...well, I'm not that familiar with the character. The toy looks okay, though it seems like it'll be a simple transform (hoping for otherwise).
In any case...from my wallets to Hasbro's bank account.
I dunno if it's the photoshop treatment of Cliff's paintjob, but the red/maroon n him looks off. Still, I'm glad he has a different headsculpt. I'll probably buy him anyways, since he's gonna be the only WFC fig in scale with BB.
As for Skullgrin, I love him to death, heheh. I liked Straxus/Darkmount's alt mode and bot mode from the neck down, but hated his overly cartoonish color and headsculpt. Skullgrin's more sinister head and gray color scheme, on the other hand, fits his stout proportions and howitzer alt mode perfectly! Another must-buy!
Thunderwing? Not sure what to make of him. Looks nice overall, but he has a somewhat TFA-ish look on him that I don't quite like. Keeps reminding me of TFA Blitzwing.
I do like his alt mode, though. What the hell, might as well pick him up, too.
I haven't been able to get WFC Bumblebee, but Cliffjumper is looking quite good, especially if the actual toy has that kind of vibrant red for its paintjob.
If it comes out looking as good as that pic, I'll just have to pass on seeing whether or not WFC Bumblebee's head could fit on Battle Blades Bumblebee's body to make a IDW Bumblebee...
I'm not real impressed with CJ. I'd like to see him in person though before I pass on him. Skullgrin looks good. Would have been sweet if he got a weapon overhaul like the Drift-Blurr remold did. Thunderwing looks acceptable since they took a supreme class character and made him a deluxe..
