The following are on my "To Get" list;

*Red Alert
*Dirge
*Blurr
*Soundwave
*Megatron
*Optimus Prime

In other words... All of them.

Looking good so far. Can't wait till Blurr is released especially. I'm so glad I pre-ordered these guys already. Just have to be patient...

*Gasp* What a coincidence! That's my list, too!

i'e never been one for repaints but the classics/universe line are an exception it seems and I have reasons to get all of these..

well war for cybertron prime i have as well as bumblebee so i will need their decepticon counterparts. Though admittedly bumblebee was rubbish and the transformations so fiddly it made deluxe galvatron seem tame. Though prime's robot mode is excellent.

i have sunstreaker and sideswipe so now i need red alert.. NEEEED i say.

blurr... i always wanted the original g1 blurr. Not too convinced about this repaint, however I really like the drift mode - it's perhaps my favourite tf toy since classics jetfire. Perhaps its slightly larger size compared to his deluxe brethren made the trasnformation less fiddly.

dirge... well i have ramjet and thrust as well as starscream... i recall receiving my first decepticon toy (they only ever sold the more popular autobots where i lived for the first year or so) anf I had a choice between thrust and dirge - i went with thrust because he had a more interesting jet mode what with the vtol fans . I later got g1 ramjet but never did get a dirge... until the rotf dirge which i bought to make up the team....

So these pictures are official of the final products?......Soundwave's tires use to be painted....now they are just grey....I think....I think....I'm going to cry

Definitely getting Blurr and Dirge, next to Thrust. Red Alert is a maybe, can't decide if I like the Henkei more, with the red head and new siren

Wow, wave 4 and WFC Prime is still going strong. All of these are must haves in my book. Can't wait to see more

I hope Blurr's colors are more like what we saw at BotCon. The blues were so pretty, now they're kind of washed out.

Does Dirge's face look like Ramjet's? In a previous thread, he looked like he had a smirk (albeit the pic was a bit fuzzy).

Damn! I'm not sure who I'll get in trouble with first, the wallet or the wife!

sold on all the WFC figures and Dirge. Never was a fan of the streaker/sideswipe mold and Blurr's head sculpt it just plain awful. I know its supposed to look like the comic, but it is still awful.

The lighting in general looks rather washed out. The colors for all of them are probably richer than in that pic (I know my WFC Prime is a richer set of colors for example).

Need to get WFC Megatron and Soundwave. I hope they bring other characters from that game into toy form. Ironhide and Ratchet would be on my BUY list. So would Brawl and Zeta Prime. Trppticon would make an awesome leader-class figure, and its been a while since we had a true G1 style Trypticon so if they made a toy based on the game version on Trypticon, it would be pure awesomeness.

Unfortunately I doubt they will bring out any more WFC figures aside from the 4 already released/announced.

wow... I think I´ll have to sell a kidney
well I really like them all, well, red Alerte is nice, but too similar to Sideswipe, maybe if it had the red head...ah what the hell!
I hope they actually arrive in my local stores, they don´t have ANYTHING
beyond the ROTF wave that had gears and thrust, and they didn´t even get the complete waves before that!

we all have the same list!

Only Megs and Soundwave look good to me personally, but I might not get them, still un-decisive

Cant wait for Dirge and Red Alert !!! Maybe ill give Soundwave a chance. Ill pass up the rest. Something doesnt seem right about having Blurr going retro in is vechicle form. I dont like him as a typical rounded car with wheels. I want the futuristic floating vechicle that looks like a spacecraft.

And dammit why does nobody but TRU have Generations ??? I was lucky to get the last Thrust in 1 of 3 TRU's I checked. I passed up Bumblebee and Optimus. Too weird. I never saw Drift. I want another Thrust in the package. Will Wal-mart be getting Generations ???

I agree with you, WE, the people who PAY Has/Tak for thier Transformers, should get what WE want, and we SHOULD get a WFC Trypticon, and possible a WFC Omega Supreme

I do like the look of Blurr, but I'm going to wait to see if Takara produce a version with a slight remold. Maybe remove the spoiler, more point to the front of vehicle mode, and maybe remove the wheels. *cough* Hover car *cough*

If not, I'll definately get this.

Truly must have that whole wave! Hopefully, once all of the stores get the generations ball rolling properly, they shouldn't be too difficult to find!

BZZZTTTT!!!

Sorry, WE (as collectors) are NOT the people who provide HasTak with most of the $$$ from Transformers. That still is, and will always be, the parents of the people these TOYS are made for.

You know...

KIDS?

That's what I keep saying, but do they listen? Noooooooooo...

We do have a voice though, and Hasbro gives us nods from time to time. Still, even if every single one of us made it clear that we want an Omega Supreme, WFC Trypticon, or even a Leader Blackout, we make up only 5-10% of their total clientele, and I'm being generous. Not enough for Hasbro to bother.

Wait a minute, Hasbro said that they would make more WFC figures provided the current batch sold well, and well, all the Toy'r'us I saw them sold out of them quickly, so here's hoping. They said that that they really wanted to make Trypticon from WFC, but they didn't cause his alt-mode is basically an astroid. I understand that Exodus remained him as the Nemesis so here's hoping ( I don't think there's a picture of that yet, or it could be being left for the sequel to WFC to figure it out).

Well, except for Prime ( I already have him), I want all of these guys, but Red Alert, Blurr and Dirge especially. Probably cause I never had the originals, and Starscream needs more troops damnit. I wonder if Soundwave can do the boom box mode seen in the credits for WFC and that commercial.

I wonder what Generations Kup's alternate head mold will be.
