Folks tell me I'm wrong but I got a bad feeling. The last time a new line first appeared overseas was Prime First Editions, if you remember they then showed up in Canada which is around the time we found out the wave 2 FE figures (Cliffjumper) wouldn't be released in the US. Is it possible that there's little to no interest in CW from US retailers and this line will end up an overseas exclusive?

Mmm I doubt that will happen. The FE figures were both semi-limited and semi-exclusive. CW is mainline through and through.

Fellow Seibertronian xMXUx has come across some video looks at the first wave of Transformers Generations Combiner Wars deluxe figures - aka the limbs for Superion minus one plus Dragstrip! We've seen images for the figures before, but now you take a gander at their transformation too, even though Skydive seems to have eluded the reviewer now updated with Skydive too! Check them out mirrored below.

I have to admit, Drag Strip, Firefly, and Alpha Bravo have very simple, but interesting transformations. However, I wished they could have more paint applications. Nothing Takara can't fix!

Yeah some Smyth's stores have stocked the deluxes. I'm not allowed to spend anymore money on TFs this year though due to Christmas and my daughter's birthday imminent. :-(

Oh mercy. CW Voyagers are no ordinary Voyagers, size-wise. They're Giga-Con sized!

Oh, look: a size-comparison with a figure I actually have!

Ya know if Hasbro is gonna make a leader Thundercracker... I sure would have liked to have seen a character like leader Broadside instead. I guess they just want to loose money by rehashing old characters.

They are saving a bunch of money by not having to design a new mold.

still hate combine prime figure loks strange in truck mode to bulky in mode, I fast forward past articulation see one voyager figure with articulation see them all do same thing jetfire looks better

Well, looks like I was wrong about RK shipping today... something just arrived at the post office....

Interestingly, the legends packaging is now a lot smaller without the extra target master

That Tailgate is an "extra" - will probably give to my gf's nephew for Christmas

Now to open these puppies up and combine

News Credits: 10 · by **Agamemnon** » Sun Dec 14, 2014 9:56 pm

Yup. These have me sold. Yup. I really appreciate those reviews. Yup, they are simple but good looking, and I love the articulation. Yup, I will be getting these.

Yup.

Wait a sec!

Square shoulders, rectangular torsos, rib caged abs, blocky lower arms, long boxy lower legs, tiny upper limbs... They're practically brothers!
