BOUGHT.
ON.
SIGHT.

I already own WFC/FOC Starscream, and with Thundercracker and Skywarp coming down the pipe, I can rest easy and finally have my first complete Seeker squadron.

I'll more than likely pick up Tailgate, but he isn't a priority.

I picked up Cybertron Swerve a couple months ago (just before they started doing IDW stuff), specifically in case they did a Tailgate, haha. I haven't read much of the comics, but I love the two of them and their nonsense. If I ever convince myself to get around to it, I plan to mod Swerve's head a bit and paint it up to give him a visor. Yeah, I know they also recently revealed a Legends Swerve, but I'm not in love with it.

Both Scoop and Starscream are looking like pretty good figures. I'll get them both and try and find a way of squeezing Starscream into my collection. Maybe some kind of Japanese inspired Super Starscream.

According to what we were told back at BotCon, all the characters being given Generations toys after the initial wave will be featured in IDW's next series, "Dark Cybertron". Presumably, this means that Starscream will be rebuilt in this form. So this toy can double as both Generation One IDW Starscream and Armada Starscream.

Voyager Armada Starscream would pubstomp this. We all know it is Megatron that deserves a redo, but alas, not going to complain that much about Armada love.

Agreed, I would've liked to see Armada Megatron get a revamp. The guy needs damn knees, for God's sake! :lol:

Well, we've always got future Classics-style lines. Maybe the 35th anniversary, or 40th anniversary, if they do them.

Man, I really dig that Scoop! :lol:

Oh, man. I'm here 'till Thursday. Don't fo'get ta tip ya waitress!

but seriously, I have been trying to fill in my Wreckers roster.

And I think I'll get that Screamer, too. I loved Armada as a kid, and would love to see more updated characters from that series.
