Why not just have the torsos for any new combiners be Voyagers?welcometothedarksyde wrote:NOOO! They're interested in more deluxe combiners! I appreciate that they're trying, but I would honestly prefer the limbs being scouts because then the proportions don't suck.

I'm fine with this as well. I think to compete with the 3rd party figures that this would be the best route.

They work just as well as anything, the problem is the plastic quality. What they should do is engineer them with a button-released catch, so that it's not a matter of forcing the limbs on and off, wearing down the plastic over time; you'd just hold the button and slide the connector off the peg.
I vaugely recall one of the third party Devastators having a system like this, correct?

I believe they were saying that the line will continue, but they didn't say in what form or which figures would be seeing release.
I hope for more Dinobots too.
Edit: I re-watchd the video where they announced Generations and yes, it does sound like they're continuing the Generations line, but I'm not sure if they'll be keeping them strictly as Generations Platinum or if they'll be seeing wide retail release.
I also noticed how the speaker placed emphasis on the word big when talking character sizes so I'm hoping that we'll be seeing more large figures in the future.
Edit again: Also found it funny that Omega Supreme got a round of applause and e. Optimus Prime didn't.

Seibertron.com / Ryan: "Please thank whoever. That's awesome I think. Looking at the size of some of the other items that are with the Marvel or G.I. Joe brands, you've got the giant heli-carrier for Marvel, I feel like Transformers is getting the short end of the stick as far as big products. Someone mentioned about Omega Supreme, Metroplex, Fort Max ... some of those big guys ... is there a chance of getting some love for some of those guys?"
Hasbro / Aaron: "I think that we recognize that those other groups have done that and even some other companies have. You know, $300 items, $400 items, in the market place not just for collectors or [conventions]. So it makes sense for us to look at that so we're starting that process because we do have big characters."

Most of this was Q1 2013 stuff, and we already know most of the Generations offerings for Q1 2013 from SDCC. If there's more, we'll probably see it announced at Cybertron Con in....January? February? Whenever that is.
