Can you post a pic of soundwave in alt mode with F/R attached?

I'd love for my wallet to get spanked because of Generation figures if we would get some in around my area!!! All we have is Prime, Bee, and Thrust. I think since the movie figures are just sitting they are not restocking. Now, I just glance down the isle, see yellow packages and leave. There are hardly any red packages!!!! I'MA FIRIN MUH LAZURRRR!!!!!

... okay i'll leave that one alone, but honestly, you make it too easy for me at times.

but are Frenzy and Rumble going to be released as one set, and if so what class will they be?

That is a mystery waiting to be solved.

Hey man what's with the hate?

And thanks. I do hope they'll be one set. Man these classic figures are gonna kill my wallet. In addition I gotta catch up on all the 2006-2009 classic figures I never touched.

I'm at a loss fore words want them all my wallet is crying

Yep. Just in time. Too bad I skipped all of the non-crap ROTFs that were under my nose the whole year. If I hadn't come back who knows what I would've been collecting now?
My plan is: Complete most of the movie stuff with Christmas gifts, then catch up on the classics, then wait in antcipation for DOTM. I'm going to try to stay with TF permanently from now on. I keep going away and coming back! Uggh!

I remember when Classics hit retail. I worked at a Super Target during 06. I only purchased molds that I thought were of interest to me at the time from the Classics line. Little did I know, all of them were gems. I missed out on Skyfire, Ramjet, Mirage, Bumblebee, Astrotrain, and Megatron. Now, of those six, I only need two. Astrotrain is easy to find at a reasonable price but Skyfire is a different story. I regret not picking him up after passing him through the ailes so many times. I wish you luck in completing the collection OptiMagnus10. The next few months are surely a treat you won't want to miss.

Ooh, good luck. I snapped up everything, including the mini-cons for Classics.

Thanks! I shall continue my mission. I'm not a big "collect them all" guy with classics, probably because I was born post-G1, so I'm not a G1 expert at all, but I love it more than anything. I usually by the characters that I am really familiar with or appeal to me a lot.
The only classics I have at all are Ultra Magnus and Skywarp, which came in a pack, and I just realized I lost both of Skywarp's weapons and projectiles. Slaggit.
Now, the only thing I ask from Hasbro is a new Ultra Magnus. But deluxe Skywarp would be good too since I can't find his weapons!

very nice. I especially like Wheeljack's color scheme.

I feel really lucky I got back into TFs during the Energon days. I was essentially just in time for all the good stuff while skipping all the bad. Except RID, but considering how small a number of new molds there were in that line, and my distaste for Beast-type TFs, it wasn't hard to catch up on that. I am guilty of skipping a lot of figures and then wanting them later though, especially from Energon & Cybertron. Classics onwards I've done my best to get everything I wanted, and it's worked out well for the most part.

Lot's of Classics and Universe stuff I just couldn't stomach buying and part of the time it was financially impossible lol

Got most of the good ones though.

Now Generations/WFC has been money for me so far, I have them alla nd will keep snapping them up as they are real homages

I'm hoping FP does a trailer for Laser Prime. To me it's just not right, no matter which version, for him not to have it. Oh, but I'm still getting him. I like just about all of them. I'm not too keen on the Frenzy/Rumble, but I'll probably still get them....

Pass on rumble n frenzy, but wheeljack is awesome, so much so that i pre-ordered him as soon as i saw that picture and spec ops jazz aswel, just need henkei thundercracker and skywarp now, until i find more i want anyways

has a pre-order for Generations Wheeljack or the Rumble/Frenzy combo gone up on bbts? All I see are the TF United versions.

all 3 figures are on my "must get list" when I see them in stores.

I'm still trying to figure out why earlier reports/rumors. said rumble & frenzy combine. I just don't see how it's possible in either mode.

IMHO,it would have been cool if rumble was a jet & frenzy was a tank. so they could have combined in robot mode like the 1985 battletrap. or perhaps a cool overlord repaint.

It is suspected that their names were accidentally switched during production.

I see!!

I loved Flywheels as a kid......would love to see him get an action figure instead of the friggin statue Hasbro gave him

Awesome Wheeljack is awesome.
