I wanted a clear fruity colored one to complete my special trio. Guess I'll have to settle with the vanilla one.

Yesssssssssssssss Spinosaurus

I read that as two fossilizers will combine to form a Mammoth and Spinosaurus, was I wrong?

-It's an "odd mix of figures & choices"
-All repaints of existing figures
-Only exception to the repaints is some 2-packs with retooled "Weaponizers" into a mammoth and a spinosaurus (so I assume they actually meant Fossilizers)
-There is a re-release involved that the leaker says is Hasbro trolling that they are intending to paint into "the correct color"

Kinda hope the three Bayverse Wreckers get a Generations update.

If I were the gambling type I probably think we may get ApeLinq from Kingdom Primal, Tgatron from Ravage, PackRat from Ratrap, Primal Prime from well PotP Primal....

Maybe a Springer re-release though I know that's a different team of Wreckers.

Seems like those wreckers make sense given the available molds.

The wreckers line is exclusive to Amazon. Besides the two new fossilizers the listings name…

Deluxe Impactor redeco
Deluxe Leadfoot ( from kingdom mirage)
Deluxe Topspin
Deluxe Twintwist
Voyager Springer redeco
Voyager Bulkhead redeco

And if the info I’ve seen is correct, the jumpstarters aren’t going to have their traditional colors.

I'm reading it the same way as D-Max, one regular figure and one Fossilizer in multiple two packs. I'm thinking Ractonite with a new dino head and no tail, and Paleotrex with a new dino head and his chest plate replaced with spines (he can be configured so his dino head is his chest). They'd probably have to connect the spines to the peg hole on the back of his neck.

Would the Jumpstarters be the TR molds then? I'm thinking probably Fall of Cybertron colors, same with Impactor which could be kinda cool. Can't think of anything else they can do with Impactor that they didn't do in the other three versions.



If they're in KO colors (red and silver) that could be pretty neat too.

It would be nice if Springer was more cartoon faithful, but considering the rest of this line it'll probably be something pretty different like red or blue. Not sure what they could do with Bulkhead aside from military camo patterns like a G.I.Joe APC.

Wait, so they're same-character repaints, not other characters? That's....boring. Is it possible they are separate characters and the listings just don't list them as such? Amazon has had listings that were inaccurate/non-specific before (the Siege "Firestormers", one of the Kingdom Battle Across Time packs mentioning Nightprowler, & Golden Disk listings not mentioning Sights or denoting Tigatron's mutant status).

The Jumpstarters also have a bunch of alternate color schemes between Diaclone releases and South American repaint releases, so they at least have options, but Impactor again is a weird one, yeah.

If they do turn out to be separate characters, I'm predicting Pyro from Bulkhead, I guess Drift/Deadlock from Springer because there's no other real option, and....CD Scattorshot from Impactor I guess? The only other character I can think of that would work as an Impactor repaint would be Demolishor, who makes distinctly less sense.

There's also the distinct possibility that we'll find out who/what all these are over the course of the current Wreckers title anyway, seeing as how it already showed us Leadfoot.

Now that I think about it more, repainting and renaming the Springer as Whirl and Bulkhead as Roadbuster basically recreates that Ruination set plus Leadfoot. If the Deluxes are in two packs with Fossilizers then could there be two more that haven't been mentioned yet (unless one of the packs is just two wreckers)? Candy colored Wingfinger please!

Studio Series gave us that. Roadbuster and Leadfoot are pretty good. Topspin wasn't as good as his DotM toy, which is still a great toy.

I would love to see this happen, I actually enjoyed the FOC Wrecker roster and colors.

Shoot I'd really much rather get a mainline unique mold Whirl! And at least some of the other classic Marvel Wreckers

There's always Thrilling 30 Whirl.

Yes, I have thought of this often, but my psychosis tells me as soon as I do a new one will be announced

If Impactor gets the better head I am in for that. Bulkhead now makes me want to wait on the first one. Hopefully the Jumpstartwrs will have salt-manZ colors. Otherwise Leadfoot is the only one I really care about. The Fosilizers are an easy pass for me

100% agree! Salt-Man X/Z colours would be really cool!

Fossilizers are an easy pass until they are in 2-packs with figures you do want.

Interesting, a few figures I wouldn't want but no doubt they will be with one that I do. Hopefully they don't scrap the jumpstarters titan masters like the did for dracula. Also more hopefully, that they give springer titan master along with some retooling to make the figure better.

I know I wanted the Titans Return Jumpstarters but like the Arcee I never found them and online was sold out or scalpers prices

Springer and Bulkhead I'm gonna pass on, but the rest... gimme, especially the TR Topspin and Twin Twist ones.

As for the non-traditional colors, look no further than the FoC ones:

Yes! I am so excited for this! I can't wait to add them to my Wrecker collection! I really Hope there are more to these. Commander class Broadside, deluxe guzzle, repaint of crankcase into ironfist, bulkhead into Pyro? My list could go on!
