The Energon Pub

News Credits: 1082 · by **Tigertrack** » Sat Sep 29, 2007 6:24 am

Ever since the dawn of the new collector's club, and the first offering for membership being Skyfall, the recolored version of Energon Skyshadow, and the information that each year a new piece would be added to the set in the end creating a new version of an Energon combiner, speculation has abounded as to who the other limbs will be, and who they will use to create the torso.

Apparently, that bit of the mystery surrounding the club may be over.

The new portion of the club comic, "Crossing Over" features a picture that leads one to believe the remaining limb and torso will be...

S P O I L E R

Limb

Torso

Only time will tell if these are actually correct, and what the final color schemes will be.

Many folks will be happy (like me), and many possibly disappointed, if this news is true.

We'll tell you more when we know it, but don't expect scans of the picture from the club magazine, as that is against the wishes of the club and its members to share information like that until it is officially released to all of the Transformers Community.

Assume people will discuss the molds, so avoid the article, and the discussion if you do not want to know!

I'm happy with the choices, In fact these toy are the ones I had posted that I wanted to be the last two combiners, so it's great.

Those are what I figured they would do.....so basically they took the best elements from the energon combiners.

I hope they make a different head for the torso, though. That one it's got already is ok, but it would make it stand out against the other energon combiners as saying "I'm not just a mismatched repaint."

I totally forgot about these combiners

one of the only things I liked about the Energon combiners is that unlike other recent attempts, all the apendage bots could be mixed and matched, so go have some fun TF Club!

well actually almost all of the later gestalts had interchangeable limbs(menasor,superion,bruticus,maybe piranacon and predaking too.)

Personally, I would have liked one construction limb, but I'm definitely happy if that is the Torso.

With the limbs that have been released so far those two compliment the team quite nicely. Almost makes me wish I had joined the club!

I don't collect these but aren't the other limbs jets?

It works in a military way.

YES!!! Onslaught is my favorite Energon mold! Give him a new combinder head and replace the helicopter with a bulldozer, and this guy would be the best combinder EVER! (Except Predaking

)

This is what I was thinking, but it is still no clue on who he actually combines into.

Ah, well, you didn't get the Aerialbot Torso so you guys aren't screwed.

I looked at that real fast and saw "Burritotacos". I guess I feel like Mexican food.

I think it was fairly obvious tha the limb would be the 'copter. I also predict that the Barricade will be the torso. Won't make sense to use Steamhammer, and StormJet didn't hold together well. Barricade is a good choice. The Alt mode is a little week, but the combiner and robot forms are very good. Hope he gets 2 new heads, though I can live with the robot head being the same :-)

I rather liked barricade's head myself...seemed rather unique, even if it did seem like they based his helmet design off of Princess Leia.

Who's the third limb? I know Skyfall, the A-10 repaint, and Landquake, the tank, but I don't recall seeing any mention of any others...

Glad they have chosen the best torso of the Energon combiners. Helichopper as a limb was almost a given, it's the best remaining figure that has not been used yet.

i think the third limb was Breakaway (the other jet from superion maximus)

based on previous toys i think the color scheme would be red, purple, white, a little bit of black.

I'm not at all surprised by Vortex. Since they used Skyshadow and Windrazor for the Autobot limbs and the Kickback/Blight mold for the first Decepticon limb, I don't feel it would have made sense for them to not use the other Destructicon basic mold for the last limb figure.

I am a little bummed that the body's going to be Barricade (assuming that's how it works out) because my vote would have went to Storm Jet if I had one. It's okay with me if it is Barricade though, because between the Arialbots, the Classics Constructicons and the exclusives out so far, the only E-Combiner molds I don't have are Barricade and Vortex.
