So fantastic!

Blitzwing's cannon is dangling down behind his back, so I wonder if it can just be rotated up for the behind-the-head-cannon.

Blitzwing's robot mode looks like it's aching for a Broadside repaint! I can easily imagine a later wave that will have Sandstorm & Broadside repaints of these two.

I'd have to say "no" to that. True, Broadside was a jet, but he was also an aircraft carrier-esque ship, not a tank.

Wow...I honestly cannot believe they pulled those off so well. Shame they transformed Blitzwing so badly. You can tell they haven't pegged him together properly.

Whilst his jet mode is a bit bricky it's nowhere near as bad as I feared. I may get these...

Springer I definitely want. Blitzwing...looks off to me. His face is a definite homage to "Icy" Blitzwing, and since that was my favorite Blitzwing face, I'm all for it. But the rest of his body looks oddly proportioned.

Still, I give Hasbro props for finally making a triple-changing Springer after G1. :APPLAUSE:

Fixed.

This image makes him look 10x better. It's a definite buy for me.

I don't think it will judging by the image the nose cone sticks out the back of his head (like the G1 seekers) might get in the way. But i could be wrong and it might be a mistransformation so hopefully there will be better images soon

springer looks badass hes a must buy but blitzwing looks like crap, easy pass on him. So far springer is the only thing to come out of toy fair that looks good.

I was trying to respect this website, but if you must know TFW2005. Maybe by now theyve updated with more pics here...

I'd love a Overlord from that Blitz mold.

Seibertron and El Duque deliver once more!

I am sad to learn that Megatron is a Deluxe. :-(

Man i am definitely getting that Megatron deluxe sized is a must

by **RAcast** » Sat Feb 09, 2013 7:34 pm

Orion, Megatron, and Trailbreaker all look great! And the latter two look properly beefy.

Bee's an easy pass though.

I'll probably pick up Orion, I want to see more first.

I was looking at the Targetmaster-esque Bumblebee over at Tformers.com. I think I like that Bumblebee more than the Bumblebee depicted in the video and the first Classics Bumblebee. I'm also disappointed to learn that Optimus is a Deluxe as well. I'm crushed. :sad:

You know what? Don't like the idea of Megatron being a stealth jet (always loved the idea of him being a tank if he couldn't be a gun) but that is one nice looking figure.

by **Rated X** » Sat Feb 09, 2013 7:55 pm

Im not sure whats the point of this Bumblebee. It's like theyre trying to make TF Prime Bee into Classics. Kind of stupid. But all the others are awesome. Orion pax needs a G1 cartoon head so he doesnt look like Optimus with a mouth. Would be a good project for Renderform or Beezleboss. I have no connection to IDW but ill get Megatron just to have him.
