Me too and that's why I sold my T30 Springer.
I may be tempted by the Siege Springer, but only on clearance.

Personally I've justified buying Springer by placing my Thrilling 30 Springer on my Wreckers/anyone else who doesn't really fit on my other Generations shelves shelf.

The stupid shape of The chest piece really ruins both modes. The car looks fine I guess but none of the panels really line up that well, and the helicopter has always looked weak to me. Sandstorm wears the mold do much better. I already sold my Springer in anticipation of this one.

To me, the most well known Springer (Nick Roche's Springer) uses that design, the posing is there, and his alt modes have some actual transformation between them. He looks really good and he looks like a jock, which is how I picture Springer. He is one of the best figures we have ever gotten.
Also forgot to mention Smashdown. That is a really sweet looking Battlemaster!

To me Springer is a warrior not a jock so he should be bulky not lanky. There really isn't that much transformation between alt modes in the T30 one. You move the shoulders, crumple the arms and straighten the legs then you're done. It's no different than this new one. As for poseability, the siege one has all the articulation the old one has plus waist and ankles. T30 is a good figure but I think he's incredibly over rated.

T30 Sandstorm I might hunt down someday just because I still really want that mold and these two looking completely different would be quite neat visually. Unless we get a WFC trilogy Sandstorm somehow.
Wolfman Jake wrote:It's really neat that all of these figures featured at the show are up for preorder now, even if they won't be available until the third quarter of the year. However, where are the preorders for Reflector/Refraktor and Brunt? They should be coming out well before Mirage or Impactor, originally slated to be part of Red Alert's Deluxe Class Wave, but they are no where to be seen as far as online ordering goes. What gives?
Also, there is a suspicious lack of Micromasters on the horizon. We have no idea what is coming beyond Wave 2 with the Rescue Patrol and the Soundwave Spy Patrol. There have to be more Micromasters coming (besides Countdown with Omega Supreme). Why leave them out of this reveal? We got something for every other price point. They can't be that exciting that Hasbro would hold them back for later or that unimportant that Hasbro would just forget about them altogether for Toyfair.

Not the last time I looked. Also shipping is a bitch.
