Upcoming release from Dr. Wu for Voyager figures...

Does this correspond to a particular character?

I'll be getting this.

ROTF Voyager Megatron was the first figure that came into mind for me when i looked at this weapon.

I figured this was for either the FP Black Protector or Nova Prime.

Yeah i guess. I have neither in my collection. I was just goin with what i had in my collection to justify it. It would work with both those releases as well i reckon.
Won't be getting it either way though. It's pretty cool though.

Maketoys Chaos/Paladdin (aka the Fallen) looks great with Dr. Wu's red Tyrant sword even though they were not designed for each other. So this could work nicely with, say, Nova Prime, or voyager Banzaitron/Bludgeon

Speak not of Banzaitron - it brings backs memories of our recently departed Headrobots brethren.

No thanks. I don't need this.

If we're not getting the Headrobots upgrade, I'll gladly get this scythe for HFTD Banzaitron.

Now we just need the Blitzwing preorder to go up.

The good doctor strikes again, and thanks to a great idea I need to pick up a Banzi-tron as an accessory to this lol

looks pretty good, Doc, what other flavours have you got?

This looks AWESOME! I hope preorders for the Blitzwing head come up soon. I'm definitely reassured by the regular (vs. skull) face, as the good doctor teased originally.

I'm fond of the existing Blitzwing head as I like the TFA homage ... but I must say, this looks QUITE nice.

As far as the scythe, it is fine but I have no real use for it.
I'm probably skipping that.

Very interesting. I just might get this for my Darkside WfC Optimus or something. I combined him with DotM Laserbeak to give him wings and he pretty much looks like the TF equivalent of the Angel of Death so a scythe would be befitting of such a badass bot.

So the Scythe comes with the new heads? (if not there is no preorders for the heads yet correct? don't see it at the usual places) Where does blitzwing hold this Scythe anyway (fiction wise) I'll probably give the scythe to one of my many Black primes too.

XYl360 do you have a pic of this laserbeak wings with darkside wfc optimus? would love to see it.

Pics of Darkside Optimus + Laserbeak mashup?

s'what i was thinking. purple blade would make it perfect for shadow scyther.

Here's the pic of the combined Darkside Prime+Laserbeak I was referring to for those who asked. Apologies for the crappy quality, but the only camera I've got is on my ancient cell phone:
He's holding one of the newer (than G1 anyway ) Targetmasters and he has another (the one that came with the Strafe repaint of Cyclonus I think?) attached to his arm.

Laserbeak's feet are upside down and pegged into the peh holes on his back kibble (inside panels of the wheel kibble) and I'd like to put some sort of cannons into the bottom peg holes of Laserbeak's feet but I haven't found anything suitable yet.

Looks like this is in at BBTS!
