3rd wave? what was wave two?

All of these will be mine. WFC Soundwave is just so awesome looking and I am loving the all the little G1 touches. Darkmount is impressive in bot mode but his alt mode looks a little goofy for a tank. Red Alert has been a long time coming. I need Megatron to fight my Optimus Prime.

Ok, Darkmount (Straxus) and Soundwave are going on my Classics shelf. If I ever get the MP3 Music Label Soundwave, I'm replacing WFC Soundwave, but that's another story. As for Red Alert and WFC Megatron, RA's going on my Classics shelf, and WFC Megs will go.... somewhere...

Slag, I was hoping for a red head on Red Alert. Well, I'll have to buy him anyway since he's my fav character from the cartoon.

I've yet to see anything in this new line that I won't buy at least one of, but as someone who still goes more by Marvel comic continuity because no cable meant I had no access to the toon from 1988 until G2, I cannot express how ecstatic I am that we're finally getting a toy of Straxus, the most impossible of all toyless G1ers to do any sort of kitbash of. But since his toy is a strange half-track instead of a flying cannon, let the kitbashing begin! I'll probably buy the first 3 or 4 of him I see. If he's popular enough to warrant knock-off of the mold, there might even be an oversized one I could attach Energon Shockblast's legs to...

Ah well, at least he's still big enough to loom over Action Master Blaster.

Oh, I definitely need that Megatron.

Now that someone transformed him correctly, Megatron looks pretty badass. All four of these will be mine.

WFC Soundwave is looking better. I don't know if the figure is growing on me or it was some photoshop lovin' that did the trick. Just don't care for his flat feet.
Darkmount looks amazing
Red Alert has been a long time coming for me. Can't wait to grab him.
WFC Megatron looks fantastic. Still am loving the blaster placement.
I cannot wait for this line. I have missed classics/universe..

will definately be getting these, and if memory serves, Darkmount can transform into a third mode that resembles Straxus' flying cannon.

Your memory does serve correctly on that one. Straxus is a triple changer. I will never call him Darkmount when he is so obviously Straxus.

Does Megatron have a third mode? In the picture it looks like he is a hover aircraft/tank but in the game he also turns into a ground based tank. The treads with the little plastic wheels look like they may support this.

Darkmount's ankles also kind of worry me.

Hmm...may get the WFC stuff, and if DarkMount/Straxus looks movie enough I may get him....

By the way Blurrz, I like the sig ^_^

Good gravy, what pure win on all counts. THat SOundwave is epic!

As for Darkmount/Straxus, it's nice to see another comic continuity TF getting love (besdies Drift)...I still have those comic issues...I know one was "Into The Smelting Pool" but can't remember the first part of the story.

EDIT: I noticed the article says June 25 for the WFC game. DOesn't it come out on the 22nd? Don't foncuse me...

Defitnely getting the WFC Toys. Hope more of these comes out eventually, I don't mind collecting every last one of them.

Hurry up and release them!

Also Red's got a new gun

Nope thats the old one,but yeah,these guys are great

I wonder if there's a way we can finaggle Soundwave into the music player mode from the Shockwave commercial

All of these is a must! every figure looks great and keep in mind guys that Megatron and Soundwave do not have their earth modes yet!! This is (if my memory serves me right) before the war started on Cybertron and Optimus is not a leader yet for the Autobots and the reason i say this is most of us (including myself) have that G1 mentality and cant see pass their earth modes. Anyway, all of these look pretty awesome!

It's just a combination of the gun and backpack piece.

Oh my god; I think all the pictures are accurately transformed.

I may cry from-HOLY CRAP, is that a seam on Soundwave's chest? Is it a door? Let it be a door. I don't care if he can't triple change into some form of "tape device" (he still might). JUST LET HIM TAKE THE TAPES!
