Looks almost like a heavily modified Energon Megatron.

If it can do that third mode from the lower right-hand drawing, that'd be kinda cool.

A resin prototype of this Thunderwing was shown off yesterday& it pulls off that mode nicely. I'm reading this guy is supposed to be 9" tall & come out mid next year.

It's pretty cool, but I don't need it.

What? You can't really be happy with the generations one.

I'm gonna need to get this guy somehow.

Agreed. Don't really need it. Or want it.

Actually, I feel the same way and am very happy with the Generations mold. Sure, it's a bit on the small side, but otherwise I really like it. I also agree with Burn and this feels too much like Energon Megs...

I never really cared for the Pretenders, so I don't have much of a desire to get bigger/better ones. Of course, that may change whenever I see it in final colours...

I get what you're saying but I think is a great choice for a third party company. Clearly a character has to has forgotten about & a figure where Hasbro's version just doesn't look right on a shelf. I'm excited for Stormbringer Thunderwing.

I can certainly see the appeal. Overall it's looking like it'll receive some good feedback, as it's one of the few pretenders to get any sort of attention whatsoever.

Yeah. Ultimately, I'm probably not going to buy this, because I'm sure it's going to cost a mint and I'm not that attached to the character. But I do appreciate the design and engineering and I hope this group does well.

Not bad, right? I guess we are still waiting on price, and not sure if they are gonna make that lofty Q2 2016 goal, but he DOES look like Stormbringer Thunderwing and enough like regular Thunderwing to have my attention. Who knows, he could be my second ever third party product purchase!
