Galvatron has been found in the wild and his shoulders look correct out the box to me.

Not found in the wild, but one of the BBTS early shipments.

Whoever took that picture rotated them around so that the inner shoulder piece would be in the correct position. You can tell because the actual outer part of the shoulder is technically "backwards" what with the pinhole being exposed, though that's really the only difference and it's not a huge deal.

Wingfinger is a MUST if you have Paleotrex and Ractonite. Three words: Hidden Combiner Head.
I'm still a bit bothered that he's a different faction from the other guys. Hopefully they release a :PREDACON: version of him so we can have a same-faction Combiner (aside from the :MAXIMAL: one with Transmutate and Tricranius).


It wouldn't be the first "mixed" combiner, and I'm not talking about Scrambles:

Still, a Predacon Dactyl would be nice. Tricranius and to a lesser extent Transmutate are on the list though.

That user reversed the upper arms, you can tell because the pinholes are visible. That's designed to be the back of those parts.

Yeah, if seeing the pinhole is the only "downside" then I'd rather do that than take the figure apart :-?

True but they are mostly heroic characters (or at least morally ambiguous), and their rival is purely evil, so I county them as heroic ;) .

Oh. Looked like someone else in that form. I thought Blue Streak was darker. I have the figure, but never had it as someone's leg.

Preordered on Amazon.
This will be my first (& only) WfC Sideswipe mold.
I won’t keep Skywarp... But I’m way happier with the look of this Sideswipe than ER Mirage.

I like Skywarp's new head and colors. Sideswipe honestly isn't doing anything for me cause he is literally just Siege with a handful of changes that could have been accomplished with stickers. That could also just be because I personally don't care for Sideswipe though because I'll definitely buy Red Alert for my Lost Light shelf

It is interesting, that without Hasbro actually mentioning anything, isn't this the 3rd consecutive TF Tuesday in a row? I think it was last July or August they did one every Tuesday for an entire month. Now they just kind of come at random. Fan's are like Sharkticons however, always wanting more ;) . Give us too much and we'll expect EVERY Tuesday to be TF Tuesday.

Well, for anyone who wanted a bot that is part of a combiner that doesn't combine...there ya go! I think a ton of fans who have waited for a proper Earthmode Sideswipe are going to be selling off their Skywarps on the secondary market.

I'm trying to imagine these as reissues with updated decoes instead of updated figures. These are nice for people who missed out on Siege, but do I really need another Sideswipe, especially when I also bought Deep Cover for the white missile?

I still got Kingdom Magnus and all the ER Datsuns and minivans. I cancelled Kingdom Mirage since he was missing the shoulder missile port. I'm torn on Sideswipe: arguably the best version for my collection, but am I going to get $50 worth of fun from him?

Anybody got link for the Amazon pre-order for this set?

Loving the earth mode Sideswipe, and Skywarp is not bad either.

sideswipes still a pass for me :( would be nice if they got the car panels to match even with the bad windshield. on the brightside it means i dont have to track down or buy the mismatched sunstreaker.

Keeping classics for now though I'll probably end up with the KO sunstreaker (if hasbro never reissue him) at some point as the g1 duo are still the best non Mp versions.

Skywarp looks like he scalped a bird whish is pretty true to the original but he doesnt make it on my cool noncombining combiners list and seems a bit pointless.

*also a bit dull that it's continuing the good guy vs good guy trend intead of hero/villain.

Yes

https://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Gen ... 609&sr=8-1

As of right now, Amazon is $5 more than Pulse.

To me, this will be Skywarp from the time set before he came to Gaia with Santon and forcibly turned Lio Junior into a Combiner with them against his will.

Yeah something is off about the Price, even at the *less* expensive amount on Pulse of $47.99. There should be more than a 5 dollar price difference for a Voyager & Deluxe vs 2 Deluxes. This should be $44 at the MOST. It almost seems like there was supposed to be an added battlemaster, or some accessories (similar to the Siege sets) that got left out.
