I'd love for Scorponok to be alongside Fasttrack in the same line because damn it we need to even out the mainline Weaponizers (not counting the Powerdashers, of course) and have a buddy to go with Brunt.

Not gonna lie, Scorpy looks kinda bland to me.
Sky Lynx, on the other hand, I like, and the launchpad mode is a nice extra. Hopefully they'll show individual bird and lynx modes at Toyfair.

So they're like nails on any given human? Plausible, but what about the motions they go through? Like swinging around, or sudden stops like when you brake your car really hard? That would be even less fun...
What about the ones that become shields? How'd you like to have that job?
I hope Skylynx separates. The base mode does look as if it does to an extent, so hopefully the Lynx Mode is there especially when you think about how that was the main complaint about the combiners version. Hasbro isn't Mattel so hopefully they did hear the fan's suggestions and did it.

I am excited for Scorponok, but I think the tail is way too small.
If Skylynx has the lynx mode then I will consider it.

That Battle Master on the right looks like he's ready made to be repurposed into Aramada Grindor.

Agreed. Nothing against him being with Omega, but the red, white, and blue really fits him better.
I think a lot of the problems we're having is with perspective in the photos, it's all out of wack. On scorpion mode his right claw is huge and his tail is tiny, but the ramp, which forms the tail, the markings match up, in base mode is enormous! I think things will look better in a few weeks when we see it in person at Toy Fair.
Scorponok's "ears" are stuck to the sides of the towers in base mode, that's a little strange... Gonna have to get a big orange third party gun by the looks of it, maybe a shield too since I'm pretty sure the center tour is built into this chest.

I look forward to Scorponok! The only Titan I've been waiting for, (though Trypticon came very close to breaking me.).

Woo-hoo! Found me Hoist and a couple of Ironworks during lunch today. I believe Hoist will soon be pushing the T30 version of himself into the "sell on ebay" box.

I guess Target didn’t wanna clog the shelves since they still got plenty of deluxe Siege and SS figures, as Ironworks was out today on the shelves....so I asked after Hoist & Cliffjumper. Hoist and Ironworks were ready to go! No Cliffjumper, or Voyagers for that matter. And all I was really looking for was Rung lol

It's a no-brainer really. All it needs is a set of wheels and it's a skateboard. Or they could just redeco it and call it a hoverboard.

I think the main issue with the slow trickle of Earthrise at Target is actually the available space. The new Cyberverse items have taken over some of the pegs for generations in my area targets. Now each one only has a single peg for generations deluxes, and only 4 fit on the peg. In the store I found Hoist and Ironworks yesterday, they had 2 of each and were out of Siege deluxes. Today they had 2 each of Cliffjumper and Wheeljack, or the rest of yesterday's fresh case.

Transformers Earthrise Wave 1 Voyagers found at US Retail
- Motto: "'till All Are One"
The Transformers War for Cybertron Earthrise voyagers have been found in he US. TF fan Mike found Starscream and Grapple at Target in Queencreek, and posted his sighting on Facebook. They are $29.99 USD each. That means that most of Earthrise has been found in the US with only the Battlemasters left to be found, so let us know if you come across those.
If you have found these voyagers, share your sightings with our community in the sightings section and on our boards in your region related thread.

I plan on getting both, and I'm praying for Grapple to get turned into Hauler and Artfire.

Went to my local Targets. Unfortunately no Earthrise or anything else worthy to report. Still hoping to find Siege Apeface and Astrotrain, Studio Shockwave, but so far no luck.
