And speaking of G1, no reissues in a anniversary year? I would have loved Has/Tak to have reissued the Dino's to tie in with AOE.

Closest we're getting is a reissue of MP Grimlock.

Also, aren't the G1 Dinobot molds lost/destroyed/in the same ambiguity limbo as Shockwave, Wheeljack, and Sunstreaker?

Well, I think Hasbro just made us all their collective bitch.

I still stand by my post from yesterday though. Those one step things would've pissed me off as a child except for that Grimlock. They've done both simple transformations and one step Transformers better in the past.

That's true, although they did reissue Devastator when his mould was supposed to have been missing.

Unfortunately the MP line is just a little too expensive for me.

Skybyte - Awesome
Roadbuster - AWESOME!
Wingblade - looks kind of flimsy, but I think the looks pretty good
Legends: AWESOME!
Jhiaxus - Poorly painted prototype, but if he keeps those colours, he should be pretty good
Jetfire - AWESOME!!!!!!
AOE Dinobots - I may get them and display them in my office or something. They're not what I want in my main collection, but interesting enough to warrant a further look
AOE Generations - Some look decent some look hideous. I don't think any of them will get on my shelves.

They made an all new set of molds for him, since Encore Devastator has copyright stamps from Tomy only without any of the copyright stamps from Hasbro and Takara that the original molds had.

Summary also finally updated with Marvel section!

Wow, I didn't realise they did that. Although it raises the question, if they can do that with Devastator then theoretically they can do the same with any TF?

[Deathscythetransform]

well I'll be!

Some decent deluxes from AoE! Want all of them!
And what to say about that roadbuster, except:

and Skybyte deserves a too!
Lots of cool stuff here to expect, but as for grimlock, I am still on the fence. the trex mode is awesome, but I feel the robot mode is a lackluster...

two-headed pteranodon for swoop? cool idea!

so yeah, hasbro still will have some of my money this year...

[Deathscythetransform]

and i like the evasion prime thingy too

[Spider5800]

Lots of good stuff here. Glad the Generations AoE figures look waaaaaay better than the other stuff we've seen so far.

Seriously though, FOUR different giant Grimlock figures?






That's way too many. And it's confusing as heck, since I can't tell which one is supposed to be in which line (maybe one of them's a Voyager? I can't really tell the scale in some of these pics).

It would really annoy me if we have all these huge Grimlocks and no leader figure is made for that black Decepticon truck (looks like they only have a voyager figure for him so far).

[Mindmaster]

Continuing on with our coverage of Hasbro's Toy Fair, we now present higher-quality images for the Generations figures shown earlier today in our detailed summary and showroom galleries!

New combatants into the thirtieth anniversary fray include Legends Acid Storm with Venin (redecos of the earlier Starscream with Waspinator, respectively), Gears with Eclipse (retool and redeco of the soon-to-be-released Swerve and what might be a redeco of Swerve's partner Flanker), Skrapnel and Reflector; Deluxes Jhiaxus (retool and redeco of Armada Starscream), Windblade, Crosscut, Rattrap and Beast Machines Tankor; Voyagers Roadbuster and Sky-Byte; Leader Jetfire; and finally, to amp up the dino-tude, an apparent reissue of Masterpiece Grimlock!





















Also included is a three-minute video provided by fellow staffer El Duque:



...as well as a video showing off Masterpiece Grimlock and the two Platinum releases, "Year of the Horse" Optimus Prime and Starscream:

More, better pictures coming up soon!

THANK YOU HASBRO!!!!!!

[HotWater08]

Yep, he's getting rereleased, and looks to be similar to the TakaraTomy Asian exclusive version.

[ILL-Star]

Thank God some AOE figures I can accept. I really like the different colors the dinobots have. Generations line keeps looking good and I suppose those new legends class figures means its not being cancelled. Or is it just Swerve and Cosmos?

[Primeultimus]

Thank you for sharing the Video. Excited about getting a MP Grimlock that will not cost me a arm and a leg when I use a coupon.

Enjoying the coverage so far, yes? Maybe you would like some more, eh? Quickly done! Thanks also to Seibertron.com member qbkiller94 we have another full gallery on an unexpected robot interloper: Death's Head, part of the Marvel Infinite series! Given the fact that the comic with both him and Death's Head II came out last week, this is quite timely, yes? Click on any of the images below for the full gallery.

1st video, Tf: ROTDS Could be heard in the background.
oh great, hound's an addict. Instead of kup. Really?

[Wageboo]

Can someone tell me why my comments are both in the AOE Gallery and Death's head gallery?

Isn't it a bullet he has, not a cigar? I get the feeling he 'chews' on a bullet ala western toothpick style. Looks that way to me at least

[Mkall]

What the heck is up with Hound's arms? They look like stretched-out accordions.
