It amazes me more that they chose a Junkion mold (transmetal 2 bike mode notwithstanding), and didn't even give him a new head!

Hope this mold doesn't have the same issues.
Surprise! Nacelle uses the BotCon 2007 Thrust wings, not the Gentei/Generations one. You can tell by the two prominent circles on each side:
Left: Generations, Right: BotCon 2007

Ms JGR........clarification please. Do the vtOL propellers detach like the new mold or are they permanent. TFwiki isn't clear with that.

The wings of the BotCon one are a solid piece, which means they can't be detached.

If the face's paint comes out crisp like it is in the mockup, I'm ok with no new head.
I really only want this for the micron spiders though. Those dudes are too cool.

Who/what would have been a non-beast Tarantulas. I can't see a difference between pre-beast and non-beast. I'm not arguing with you Sabrblade, I'm just curious.

I think we should take the "pre-Beast Wars" at face value. Didn't his bio mention Sky-Byte, Jhiaxus and clones, therefore placing it in the Wings Universe? Last I remember, Dawn of Future's Past was canon to Beast Wars proper, not to an alternate timeline.

I think the Club has decided to retcon DoFP(and thus the BW shows) into Wings despite the continuity conflicts between BW and G1. That groundwork was kinda lain in the Pirates vs Knights story, too.
