My thoughts as well.

Yeah, this line is just screaming for 3rd Party weapons. It would be cool if somebody did them all in one pack for like $30 or something. Or, choose your own combos!

I agree, but some have shown that they have good weapons, like Wheeljack (although he needs a couple of different things too). Although those "powerizers" are desperate. :BANG_HEAD:

Just grab some Armored Core weapons. They'll do the trick nicely.

Screw him, I want Starscream.

Some of these mechtech weapons are pathetic. The DOTM weapons were MUCH better.

I like the look of Dreadwing there, but that Starscream and Bulkhead look crap. Well, Starscream looks allright, but god damn is that weapon HIDEOUS! Deluxe DOTM Starscream's mechtech weapon is much better.

I'll just shell out to get FE Bulkhead from somewhere.

Great bot mode, questionable alt mode, and horrible looking gun on account of the clear yellow plastic.

You know something is wrong when you would rather buy the £80 FE Bulkhead over the £20 RID Bulkhead. I'm not getting Bulkhead or Starscream. Dreadwing looks nice though. That gun is heading straight into my parts pile though. I hope Hasbro plan to repaint it back into Skyquake. It would be a missed opportunity and just give the 3rd parties another toy to make.

It looks like Starscream and Dreadwing's weapons all fold into that weird, useless, deformed block thing like Optimus'.

Oh yeah, and for the people who like the sword but think it's pointless, he has it in the show, it's attached to the cannon bayonet-style.

BTW, this is Voyager Wave 3? What was Wave 2? Am I missing something here?

Series two adds Starscream and Bulkhead. Series three adds Dreadwing.

Oh well, hopefully that means more Dreadwing in a case.

Bulkhead is too blocky. Starscream looks too badass. Dreadwing's not too shabby. Think he might do.

Smooth looking figures... now let's see how smooth the distribution is..

Personally, I like Dreadwing. It seems as though the RID 'Cons are getting good robot modes that make up for shabby vehicles, while the Bot's are getting good vehicle modes that make up shabby robot modes. The sword is show accurate, you can see it in a couple parts of Loose Cannons. Not so fond of the gun. In terms of design, it is actually pretty accurate (not counting the big block on the back), it's just the bad paint scheme.

Onto the others, Bulkhead is an undecidable for me. I like his vehicle mode, but the robot mode and weapons are quite shabby. Should I get him, I'll get the Arms Micron version, as it's slightly cheaper than the FE version, and the prototype pics of the Micron look good. Starscream is a pass. If I get him, I'll get the 2-pack version, as it's scale accurate and I also like that paint scheme. I also prefer the FE 'Bee, and that color scheme is reminiscent of the Overshield from WFC.

Funny. If I had a generations/classics/universe collection, Id say this Bulkhead figure would look pretty good in it. it still look coll regardless, just not as show accurate as the FE. As for Starscream, repaint him in Slipstream's colors, give him a new head AND I'LL BE ALL OVER THAT THING. As for Dreadwing, I kind like him, but I prefer Skyquake's colors.
