Yeah, I forgot about the movie version looking more military like but I think something like that would work for both Ironhide and Ratchet. I think I would rather not see a lime green Ratchet though.


Hopefully(yes yes, very very hopefully), since Hasbro, already licensed the Hummer for movie ratchet, they can work out an agreement and put out a Hummer alt.

I'm still hoping we get to see a Cadillac release as Megatron

i love the alternators line, helped me get back into transformers, however, as cool as it'd be 1/24 scale transforming jets wouldn't be a money maker. a 1/24 scale seeker like starscream would be 32" long, a little over twice as long as masterpiece starscream. so that'd probably set you back $250+ easy.

Everyone needs someone to complain about, it just wouldn't be Transformers otherwise.

They shoulda made Wheelie turn into a punching-bag. It's perfect for the character.

As much as I hate Wheelie, I can remember seeing a custo someone made of him that looks SEX, along with a SEX Cyclonus.

I'll see if I can find the link again...

I If Hasbro has any sense, they will make Hummer alts. Otherwise they're just missing out on extra money.



In fact, I wish they would reissue the Alt line, for those that are new (cos of the movie) and for those of us that missed some of them. They are after all getting more and more expensive to buy off of ebay etc.

Heh, there's a Hippo transformer...

On topic, the Cadillac Megatron might be an Alternator I'd buy....gotta have an arm cannon, though.

Yay Hippo-Formers! :lol:

Anyway, I'll come out and say it... I wouldn't mind having that Wheelie figure. Him and that Cyclonus look pretty sharp! Btw, forgive me for sounding like a noob, but what does SEX stand for (in this case that is, :lol: )?

Not yet. They should both be out now, shouldn't they? Either way, they're the last confirmed, for the moment.

Yep, they're out. Have been for a few weeks now. They're both Wal-Mart exclusives. I picked mine up about two weeks ago. They seem to be getting a bunch in, though I haven't checked my store in a while.
