Motto: "My anaconda don't..."

After sitting on the appearance of the Aerialbots, I think I've pinned their alt-modes. Skydive is a Mig-29, Fireflight/Slingshot and Air Raid are both decently close to the Harrier and F-14 Tomcat respectively. However Silverbolt's alt mode is made up. It's really a mishmash of different aircraft here. The Mig-29 in the Soviet analog to Skydive's original alt-mode the F-16. The Harrier is what Slingshot originally turned into, meanwhile Fireflight turned into the totally unrelated F-4. The F-14 on the other hand is the US Navy's contemporary to the F-15 of the US Air Force, which was Air Raid's original alt-mode. So for some reason they updated all of their alt-modes to aircraft that aren't really any newer, or that make any more sense (As in the case of Silverbolt, where his exotic shape makes him look goofy, and is sort of a B-line thematically). Interesting stuff to ponder, It's like they just searched "Airplane" on Google images and took the first five pictures whether real or fake.

I won't get into the individual bots, as unlike in the 80's, Hasbro has to watch it designs and make them half-way "generic" or else they would need to get permission from the plane makers no different than getting permission from GM, Dodge, Ford, VW, etc to use different car forms. Hasbro did the same thing with the earlier Generations/Classics stuff with the cars. That being said, in regard to Silverbolt's "exotic...goofy shape," I submit this for your consideration.... The XB-70, one of the USAF's first ventures into a supersonic bomber...Looks a tad familiar don't ya think You should read the wiki on the XB-70, it was one BAD MF. With what it could do, it would be a perfect form for a robot in disguise...

Although a more modern Aerialbots should really have a B-2 as Silverbolt, and throw in an F-22, F-35, MAYBE an F-117, and maybe an Osprey. Ultimately, whatever modern aircraft choosen need to be from the SAME country because a group of multinational fighters roaming together would be weird/suspect. Honestly (wish coming here) I think a team of vintage aircraft would be cool... like the ones you see at airshows, PERFECT cover!! I am thinking a B-29 or B-17 Silverbolt then throw in a Japanese Zero, a P-51, an Mig-18, an F-86, Messerschmitt Me 262...Combos are limitless really.

Following our earlier post about scans from the latest issue of the Dengeki hobby magazine, we now have new scans from Figure Oh #204 which recently came out. These Also show a variety of upcoming figures from the Legends, Q, and Masterpiece line.

But first, here are some other scans from the Dengeki March 2015 issue. These include the upcoming Genesis Megatron and Playstation Optimus coming from Takara Tomy T-Arts division. These give an idea of the scale of these figures.

In the first image?

If you mean the second image, it's just the Aerialbots.

I think he means the from this image:



They're from Shooting Game Historica REBOOT, a line of model ships from popular Arcade shooter games. This particular model is from the game Terra Cresta.
