Not helping... Swoop-withdrawal is serious business...

When did this thread turn into that game from Who's Line is it Anyway? where players talk in song titles?

You should have just kept that blue one and then sold it to me when you got the red one

I'm still sad Ricochet doesn't come with a battlemaster.

Ooooo, you know what would be cool? Getting a Selects Artfire from Inferno

You'd better not be talking about the PotP one. We just completed Elita-1, twice!

But he works so well with TR Hot Rod!

I am yes! And I still want an Artfire! It would be nice to have a combining Ricochet and Artfire together

And the other three limbs to complete the Targetmaster Combiner could be Pointblank, Sureshot, and Crosshairs.

Mine was a song lyric

I know what I want and I want it now!

What are we thinking for a name for this guy, Arsenal? Ballistic? Sixgun's older brother Fivegun?

In all seriousness, I think a new Artfire would be cool, but given I wasn't a fan of PotP Inferno's use of the Hot Spot mold, he'd have to wear the mold better for me to be interested. Hopefully the more varied paint scheme Artfire tends to have would help it look better?

Out of which molds/figures? Assuming SELECTS only does redecos.

And D-Max, as a G1 Marvel comic addict, I would be going through this red-Swoop-less agony whether I had the blue one or not. But thanks for the support.

Sorry, a little late with the music video responses, but I had to throw in my 2 cents.

Carytheone -I'm a little disappointed, there was a much more appropriate Tom Petty song for this situation

You are a bad influence and my wallet scolds you for that idea

Boy do I wish. A Targetmaster combiner would be the best, even better if the 5 Targetmasters all combined into a massive BFG

Oooooooooh I just thought of something: with us getting a cartoon-accurate Bluestreak in Siege (through the 35th Anniversary subline), toy-accurate silver Bluestreak and Blue Bluestreak redecos of it would be perfect easy fits for the Selects line.

While the Generations Select box G2 Combat Megatron came in might have been a little short on details, did you know it was reversible? Cobotron took some images so we could share this with all of you.

It is indeed reversible! I thought when I first opened him, that it was nice touch to do such nice printed graphics on the inside. It gave it a nice premium "velvet lining" feel.
The graphics wrap the entire box. This is a really neat touch. It would make a nice building block or riser for a shelf display. Imagine if one had several of these you could really start to build a neat Cybertronian landscape for your figures to battle it out on!

It is yet to be confirmed but odds are the other two upcoming Generations Select boxes will be reversible too.

I wonder if the packages for Red Swoop and Ricochet will be the same way.
Speaking of them, when are they supposed to come out. The preorders were months ago and I believe originally slated for February.

Well, let's see.

Transformers Generations Select Ricochet and Red Swoop are coming soon. And we now have video reviews for both from Chefatron. You can see a good caparison between blue and red swoop. As for Ricochet there is no comparison to his Jazz counterpart but instead to a previous iteration of Jazz. As with Combat Hero Megatron, you will see that the inside of the box is detailed and that is because it is likely also reversible, providing a big autobot logo for anyone who prefers that look for a box.

These should be shipping out soon, let us know what you think!





Also, thanks to TFanPage101, Riley Hoffman, and What's Crackin'? for letting us know of these videos.

I keep forgetting I have those on preorder. Swoop I still want but the moment has passed for ricochet

I haven't received my news credit for this.
