Are they original?

Also, not too worried about Megatron for Pinpointer yet, since the G2 Sideswipe battlemaster is currently my Pinpointer. But again, I hope to make a decision in stores on that front

Think my crosshairs is using Tak legends Windblades target master. Popped the wheels out to plug in on his shoulders even if they should be bigger or risks damaging them.

Really hate this tactic of endlessly repainting molds into better deco versions of the same character. Okay Hasbro, you've tricked me into buying Megatron twice, but I'll sure be thinking twice now about picking up Wave 1 Earthrise stuff, lest the good version come out a year later.

Mine attaches to his back for a Megatron-esque back barrel or arm cannon

No, there isn't really a point for you to mount it as an over-the-shoulder cannon. You can mount it on his arm, however. Kinda makes him look like he has a tiny version of Galvatron's cannon.
Alternately, you can reverse the orientation of the pieces and mount it as a chest cannon.

What's it matter, Will? They're SIEGE gun battlemasters other than Firedrive and Blowpipe, so distinction is a bit of a mess. I mean, I guess Aimless has some new parts.

We need a look at the back of Hotlink's box to tell us who's who.

If Hasbro keeps producing new figures based on the Sideswipe mold, I’ll keep buying them. And Hotlink may have to serve as my Skywarp. So stoked we’re not done with the Cybertronian alt-modes, even if they are repaints or retools.

Can someone help me understand who all the figures are? The article said 10 deluxes, but I only saw 8 preorder links. Are they counting the fact that you need 3 of the Refraktor dudes(again!)?

There are 2 waves, they only revealed 5 dwluxes so far. In total, there will be 10.

Why did people think they were getting a deluxe? Though looking at that description at least I can understand the name of the set...those spoilers will be online within an hour of someone getting that set.

Are these going to be in Walmart stores like the 35th or online only?

For now assume online-only, limited as they are. I still have a few lingering 35th in mine (still enticed by Soundblaster...).

Though if you want Megatron better get him while you can, or wait for them on Ebay: he comes with an orange Lionizer and more importantly, Pinpointer. :shock:

IMO unless Pinpointer has new parts, the corrected Lionizer is a bigger deal.

He does have Firedrive's limbs, but I can't tell if the body is new or not.

:EDIT: Nope, straight redeco. Speaking of which, eyeing Hotlink big time. :x

So basically this is a reissue of Magnus with some small knick knacks inside a different box, promoting the new Netflix series?

Yes, but that's what it was all along anyway.

There could still be some deco differences for Magnus, right? Like, his Decepticon colors, as some are speculating.
