That, along with energon downshift, is one of the best iterations of G1 Wheeljack

That thing next to Ironworks' foot and the explosion, isn't that FoC Grimlock' shoulder?

New Battle Master "Soundbarrier" who becomes a shield and if army build...a ramp? Blast effects are still coming in Earthrise.

Better look at Voyager Starscream. His back looks pretty similar to the '06 Classics Deluxe. #NYCC2019 #NYCC19 #Transformers

Some closer shots of Wheeljack. One of the goals of Earthrise is to draw from the cartoon models as much as they can. #NYCC2019 #NYCC19 #Transformers

Starscream shares the same transformation as the classics deluxe. He is an improved upscaled version, similar to how the SS voyager Starscream was an improved upscale version of the DOTM deluxe

The main line is getting an MP-like Hoist before the actual MP line. :lol:

This is basically the same toy except that it's a brand new mold, and likely has better articulation.
I suspect the arms/hands collapse in a similar fashion to MP-39 Sunstreaker before they're flipped into the torso like Henkei. And the feet fold down instead of up, it seems. Was hoping ten years of engineering would fix some of the things I didn't like about the old mold.

You might be right.

Okay, all these are way cool. Only gripes with Optimus are the yellow eyes and the gray fists.

I wonder how many Seekers we will get this time... *le sigh*

Looks like I will be retiring the Gdo Cliffjumper... Just not the Prime Hammer. Because what goes with a gun that makes things brittle as glass better than HAMMAH TIME

For being G1, I am glad we are getting some lesser used Guys. We dont have a lot of Grapple or Hoist Figures i will be getting both...

And possibly Screamer, depending on how many Seekers we get...

And Prime

And the Base Dudes

And the Micromasters

Would anyone like to buy a Kidney?

Perhaps? But for sure pivotable. They look to be painted silver on the bottom and form his wings.

Wheeljack is an absolute must, cliffjumpers alt looks Great so ill pick that up, hoist looks incredible which is a shame because i love the T30 mold. Im a little conflicted with starscream because if were getting the rest of the og3 seekers id rather hold off on getting the siege ones, but if not maybe they do the coneheads like in the classics line? Overall earth rise is looking really solid, but wheres the rest of the cons lol?

I'm actually going to be selling many of my previous CHUG figures (including the seekers) to fund these. There is still market for them.

Well, hopefully we do get a Bumblebee from this line at some point. Cliff's new mold reminds me a lot of MP-21, I dig it.

Starscream's looking really good too, I might be picking him up.

For once, the earliest rumors of this line have barely come out just before this line's unveiling, none of which have mentioned a Megatron.

He would turn into a cigarette lighter in the shape of a gun, modern day size class restrictions :P

Choro Q kind of did it first o.O
