Shockwave looks great 
!
Dreadwing looks decent except for his head, which is too small and too elevated making him look quite goofy. Oh well, his beast mode is nice enough I suppose.

That's... Dreadwing? As in the Dreadwing that Megatron "killed" near Season 2's end?
What crap is this?!
Shockwave is just...
Definitely getting him and ditching that horrible armor of his.
Something about Ratchet is unsettling, if you ask me.

I suspect he's a non-show character and all they share is a name. I don't believe it is the same character.Mindmaster wrote:That's... Dreadwing? As in the Dreadwing that Megatron "killed" near Season 2's end?

According to the original report, the Voyager is actually called Grimwing. Dreadwing is Deluxe Class... So he's still in the line... Wow, Hasbro stooped to a new low either way; reusing a name for a different character in the same overall line.
*offers her head*

Could that be Dreadwing as in the G1 Powermaster combo of Dreadwind and Darkwing? Makes a bit more sense especially since the beast mode looks like two molds stacked on top of each other like the G1 toy.

Shockwave looks amazing!
Grimwing looks pretty cool too! Sort of a griffin 'o doom or something.
I'm actually not really that impressed with this version of Ultra Magnus. The shoulders looks good but it looks to busy with the wings from the BH Optimus mold. I think I'll probably stick with the PRiD version...which I really like.
Ratchet...well...his colors look pretty terrible. Also, his chest details look strange and his face doesn't really look like Ratchet to me. I hope the good doctor doesn't get horribly mangled by a beast and this is what we get. I'll reserve judgment but I'm a little disappointed since he is my favorite 'Bot on the show so far.

Shockwave = Yeah!
Ultra Magnus = Yeah!
Grimwing = Maybe
Ratchet = Hell no
P.S: It looks like "Dreadwing" is not supposed to be the same Dreadwing that got killed, but rather Backbite from the Rage of the Dinobots comics!

I'm thinking it'll probably be like the Transmetals in Beast Wars. Maybe some of the characters will adopt new looks, maybe even just on a temporary basis, but others might not. Can't really imagine Ratchet from the cartoon letting himself look like that.
Not sure I'm that bothered though, because it's an awesome toy.

Ratchet will have another Synth-en binge, single-handedly beat down every enemy in sight, fall through a wormhole and say hi to Dinobot's spart as it leaves his body, and say, "He NEEDED that!"
The end.

Shockwave and Magnus look fabulous. Must buy!! Ratchet is interesting indeed. Ugly but compelling. Wonder if they're bringing Dreadwing back into Prime somehow, or if this is just a posthumous BW styled send-up. Looks decent though. Thanks for the show updates, posts and all the hard/fun work to all involved!

Well said.
And it echoes my sentiments exactly. I preordered him a while back, and despite some doubts at the first scan, I am once again resolute in my support of the Decepticon's rightful leader.
I've been buying the BH deluxes by wave, so I'll probably do the same and get Ratchet, Dreadwing, and Skystalker in one go. I'll also lay odds they'll have another character in the wave, most likely Arcee.
Grimwing I'm kind of on the fence about, and I'm pretty sure I'll pass on both versions of Ultra Magnus and use PRID Magnus with the 3rd party Forge Dr. Wu's working on.
Passing on Ultimate Optimus, getting Ultimate Predaking. Getting a nice big army of Preds, so Hasbro, get to work on those redecos/retools of Ripclaw and Lazerback. For once I'm actually excited to buy a retool.

Ratchet, while reminding me of Rhinox, is actually kind of disturbing to look at. While I do have issues with some of the figures in this line (I wish this one was bigger or I wish that was a different colour), Ratchet is the first one where I wish they hadn't actually made it.
