More images from Botcon coming in, now we can see a couple new offerings from the Generations line, including Darkmount and Hasbro's release of the controversial Seeker jet: Dirge, using Takara Tomy's tooling. To view the gallery click here.

I originally didn't like the new Soundwave, but after playing WFC he must be mine. He and the rest of them can't come soon enough =P~

Oh my God, Dirge actually looks better than the Takara version. Other than that, everything that is on display there are all bought for me :lol: :lol: :lol:

I expected they'd take the Dirge mold and change the wing detailing to more G1 like. I kinda wish I didn't already have the Takara versions. I didn't get Alert though, so there's still that.

Pretty much everything for Generations has been a must have. My wallet is going to weep this summer....

Now just need Repolabels to do a set to cover up the fire emblems and make a second Red Alert into G1 Breakdown.

The entire Generations line is amazing. Thrust looks excellent. WFC Soundwave has grown on me and will look good next to the Music Label one, Straxus is a badass, and WFC Megs looks ten times better than the classics one. I also think this picture of Red Alert looks a lot nicer than Hasbro's, posted a few days ago. All are must haves in my book. :grin:

News posted today that the first wave of Generations toys were popping up all over the US. I believe SW is in wave 3.

In the back right of the Straxus picture, you will see a blurred image of what looks to be the third mode you've been so eager to see.

I dunno. WFC Megatron doesn't suck, but I'm not overly impressed, either.

...You can have mine.

I don't feel like looking Henkei Dirge's gallery, so I wouldn't know.

I just know that I'll be getting Gen Dirge when I see he's on pegs, just like I'm gonna get Thrust.

Oh man, sweet. I'm loving Dirge and Red Alert.

I'm liking Soundwave a little more, but I'm still unimpressed with his alt mode. Ah, who am I kidding, it's not like I WON'T buy him...

I agree.

He may have some meagerly cheap paint apps. But I still might buy this one...

I'll need another bot to fight WFC Bumblebee, anyway...

these will be mine.... maybe even the war for cybertron ones - wasn't really too keen on the bee and prime but megatron's robot mode looks menacing and will definitely give universe galvatron a run for his money

not a big fan of repaints but i seem to have become a sucker for g1 insired repaints - red alert, dirge and thrust will hopefully make it nto my collection

i would really like to see 3rd party accessory makers release a null ray kit for universe starscream and perhaps a set with other guns for the rest of his crew cos the ones that come with these molds are a) all the same (and in most cases they look rather rubbish) Actually they had done an effort with ramjet's which are different as was the original toy's.

Dirge!!!! I am really happy about that.

Megatron's WFC Bot mode is fantastic. I have to get that sucker.

I already have the Henkei Dirge, Red Alert and Thrust and i still think they look better than Hasbro's, so no regrets there.

Dear Santa (Hasbro),

I have been really good this year lining your coffers with my hard earned money. What I would really like for christmas are Generations Blurr, Generations Jazz, Generations Shockwave, and if it's not too much trouble, TFA Omega Supreme.

Thank you :grin:

NOTE: I know they are doing a Drift repaint for Blurr with a new head sculpt, I'm just a little disappointed with that thought

Damn me. I hope that I wasnt able to go to Botcon for a good reason! Is Megatron in wave 2?

Thrust, Dirge, you two are so mine! At least, if I had a Ramjet :twisted: Looks like the only expensive Seeker will be Thundercracker...

Red Alert I'm not too sold on, somehow the Henkei looked better to me. The War for Cybertron toys I'm skipping, maybe I'll just get Prime and Megs.

Already have Henkei Alert, but he's my fave character in G1 so who cares! I'm getting the Hasbro one too. No such thing as too many paranoid lambos. XD
