The majority of sculpts are atrocious when compared to the originals. This Tigerhawk is a joke. I didn't think hasbro could put the bar lower than the new BW Megatron but they did.
I understand kids would like this, but you can get the original Tigerhwak on eBay for $40.

Fans can be interested in getting more accurate and more articulated figures.

Just wait and buy TFA Optimus from any number of other retailers. It's not an exclusive, it's a mass retail figure. It'll be available everywhere.DeathReviews wrote:TFA Optimus was one of the only ones I wanted, but through a combination of delays, and high demand, it got sold out on Pulse before I could pre-order. I want to hope they'll restock - but this is Hasbro we're talking about. And they've had an annoying habit lately of making all the really good figures completely unavailable (coughcoughcoughVelocitronCosmoscoughcoughcoughLeaderSnarlcoughcoughcough)...

I sure hope so! I'd love a new Beast wars ironhide!
Hopefully a new Big Convoy too

Yes, it's Titan Class.
On another note, I'm really bummed by the discussion and dissapointment on social media with the lack of G1. There was a complaint that the generations line had little variety and now that we finally have it I see so many Debbie Downers.

How big did you remember his hawk legs being?
To be fair, our Lockdown listing doesn't specify universe/show of origin.... Also worth noting that the clamp is three parts:Emerje wrote:I think I know who Chase is being retooled into and why they said to wait six months for the reveal since he's part of the Star Seeker lineup at Walmart next year. The double headlights on the feet and exhaust on the sides give it away. There's notches on the hood for an engine to plug into.
I didn't say it would be good.
