Aha! So it wasn't Bonecrusher after all. What catalog supposedly had it labeled as such? In spite of the goofy pic of his face on the package front I quite like it.

These look great! Wreckage looks the best and he's not even in the movie. Is it just me or do they come with a lot of blades and swords? Jazz doesn't even have a gun it seems, what's up with that? Close range combat throughout the movie?

Hahaha, that was my fault. That picture is in between Bonecrusher and "off road assult vehicle". They give the same discription for both figures. The catalogue was from the Hasbro direct wholesalers catalogue for the record. That's some steller organiztion that thing has going on there.

Is it just me, or did the other thread have more posts & was actually created earlier?

Not that it really matters, just seems like a waste of posts.

You put the Eiffel Tower "back" in London? Well, no one's perfect. But we do okay.

Well they fracked up frenzy. He's not even a "Transformer" he's a "
holo-drone".

eh. not bad

I think that Jazz and Brawl have the most Transformer looking heads.And is Wreckage even going to be in the movie? Or did hasbro just make a filler TF.

by **Dagon** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 12:26 pm

Just a fast question....does 'automorph technology' mean that these figures transform? What an odd concept for "Transformers"......

I think Wreckage is best movie toy i've seen so far. Proably b/c he has the most normal looking head.

Where's that pic at? I read in the other thread he came out of Barricade's chest or something?

*edit* Never mind, shoulda looked closer:

I'm liking Wreckage - didn't we see a concept pic of him before and think that he was an earth mode Megatron? With that head he still looks the part.

Well, with Wreckage being our first example of a non-movie movie toy, I fear for Arcee and the other bot names that popped up on that list. He's probably the best looking one out of the bunch but I really don't like the styling of these movie toys at all.

I'm liking Wreckage...

Nice alt mode, and decent robot mode.

News Credits: 11 · by **Overcracker** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 12:54 pm

I think Wreckage looks good. I'm not a big fan of the Off Road vehicle mode. But the bot mode is good.

Anybody else think Jazz's Telescopic Sword looks more like a Rifle than a sword?

Kinda reminds me of G1 Megs's gun mode with all the attachments.

In any case, I'm definitely getting Jazz, Ratchet, Brawl, and Barricade so far. Wreckage I'll have to see in person before I decide.

Any body else get the feeling Barricade started out as Movie Soundwave? Frenzy "ejects" from Barricade's chest?

Im not sure what to think of the whole Arcee thing... I mean I would expect any filler charecters to have either new names, or names of obscure charecters, so they dont inadvetently clash with any future movie plans, yet from what I can tell there has been no plan to include Arcee in this movie...

Anyway, yeah, I think I like Wreckage the most. Most of the others have an element of 'wtf?' about them.

Gotta go with the crowd and express my like of Wreckage, but I am really liking Jazz. I even like his head/face. But what is up with all of these Movie TF's having swords, claws and Barricade's "Crushing Hydrolic Hands"?

Ouch

by **Dagon** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 1:12 pm

These figures are looking good, at least in my mind. I'm going to need a second job to afford all of them!

So, certainly there has been some info on this that I just missed, but is there a target date for when any of them will be released? I'm sorry, alright, I don't remember hearing one.

Melee combat is brutal, and can be more entertaining than a shootout. It's also easier to pose figurs in a melee than it is a shootout. I kind a like it.

And I think Jazz's sword can also double as a gun, which is good. The concept reminds me of the old Power Ranger Blade Blasters.

It looks like one of those spring-loaded billy clubs.

He he... Jazz looks like a kitty cat! Here kitty, kitty.

Dammit, why do I always post in the threads that get locked?

Anyway, here's my comments from the last thread:

Just noticed that too,

holy crap Jazz has an awesome head! Brawl's looks really cool too, these two guys (along with Barricade - who also has a pretty frikkin' scary head) are my top movie TFs so far, and I'm totally psyched for the leader-class Brawl!

Notice how Brawl has four eyes just like Barricade? I could live without that, the Decepticons are evil enough without having to look like insects...

Wreckage looks kinda cool, I'm sure I'll be digging alot of the non-movie TFs.
