It's new canon so they can include whoever they want tbh.(that and i qyuite like Apeface being about during the early days etc)

I was hoping Tidalwave would be a titan but the next slot must be Scorponok :-D and now i think of it Broadside would be a great Commander class but he's only just been done (albeit very poorly).

Octopunch counts as an aquatic character and Longtooth inner robot is a amphibious transport vehicle. I've done a list of aquatic characters there's quite a few as we all know seafaring character often suffer and get the superfriends aquaman treatment LOL.

Well, Tidalwave and Broadside could share a mold if Hasbro wanted to do both like TR. But I think what's holding them back from doing that is they might be worried about the demand for either character

People have been enjoying their Seige Refraktors and Springer for weeks or even months.

And here in Canada, we are still stuck at Wave One. :HEADHURTS:

At least you get shiny coins :) I just picked up soundwave and even the box is too embaressed to mention what he turns into (I liked the alt in photos, in hand, it is a literal thing). Robot modes great apart from forearm junk and the hollows.

Just lucked up and got the *last* Thundercracker on Amazon.com. (Whew) These things restock and sell out quick!

While I passed on the Rainmakers and Redwing, I was always going to get the O.G. Three. Looks like I'll have a break while I wait on Impactor and Mirage to be in stock.

My local TrU have just barely begun getting Wave 2 deluxes and voyagers. There was so much Wave 1... As for my local Walmart, they are up-to-date with Siege Wave 2, but they barely keep any stock.

At least EB Games have plenty of Ratchets.

I LOVE his looks and the fact that he basically transform like a Go-Bots.
We sure came a long way since 30 years!

I don't think he's part of a "wave", being an exclusive and all. But yeah, this mold is fantastic in it's simplicity.

Plus, Six-Gun is the PERFECT partner for Ratchet!

Finally hunted down another Jetfire, tried the face mask in the parking lot and it stayed! Got it home, popped right off and it won’t stay on. What, the, F. I’m cursed.

The original source that first named Nova Storm used male pronouns for all three Rainmakers.

Random: What are some of your favorite blast effects to bot combinations? I prefer Aimless' squiggly effects on Starscream. Blowpipe's and Firedrive's look great with just about anyone.

So, fun fact: the 5 seekers I currently own all color match Voltron! Pretty bizarre coincidence, but really cool. So I decided to try combining the 5 seekers into a Seeker-tron, and it didn't go to well

also, Battlemasters make fairly decent combiner weapons

New Images of Transformers Siege Optimus Prime and Megatron 35th Anniversary Cell Shaded Versions

Fellow Seibertronian Powermaster Ultra Prime has shared a bevy of cell shaded War for Cybertron Siege Optimus Prime images with us. There are many images of this figure floating around on the inter-webs out there but these give an excellent view of how the cell shading works in some natural lighting. Also of note is how good it looks when mowing down an army of Decepticons. Kind of hard to argue that one.

We also have some more professionally photographed comparison shots of Siege Optimus and Megatron side by side with their cell shaded versions. Although not naturally lit these also show off how that cell shading works so well in some poses, but maybe not so much in others. These images come to us from Facebook user Masterandy's Kindergarten FB Branch. It is amazing the action poses you can get the Siege figures into.

Well, what do you think Seibertronians? Are these the faction commanders you've been waiting for or are the initial Siege releases of Optimus and Megatron your favorites? Let us know in the forums and as always stay tuned to Seibertron for the ultimate in Transformers news!
