eBay seller lena81822 has managed to get a hold of loose samples of the upcoming Generations Deluxe IDW inspired Stealth Bomber Megatron and Fall of Cybertron styled Thundercracker. When released at retail each will come pack with an issue of their respective Transformers Spotlight comic from IDW Publishing. Check out the images mirrored from the auctions below. The listing can be found at the following links: Megatron - Thundercracker

I really like the IDW megatron, and I really like this figure.......from the front. From the back he looks really broken up and gappy. I'm slightly conflicted, and i'm hoping the ebay seller didn't transform it properly. Oh and thundercracker looks nice, hope skywarp comes soon in proper colors

Megatron is transformed so well I think these might be stolen Hasbro photos.

Thundercracker looks very proud to be an American... of French... not sure.

Megatron is badly transformed... has the seller never seen a Stealth bomber?

Megatron looks good but it looks like it is mistransformed a bit. I like the FoC Seeker mold and it looks really good in Thundercracker's colours.

Megatron's mistransformation is simple: his weapon splits and becomes the wings of the stealth bomber.

With a Hasbro Skywarp in the pipeline, I can rest easy getting all three.

I'm honestly surprised that the seller got Megatron's robot mode correct (doesn't he come packaged in robot mode though?). But come on, does the seller not have the common sense to know that the bomber mode is still incomplete?

I seriously like this mold, but I'd rather have him as Dreadwing. I have no room for another Classics Megatron on my shelf.

Agreed. I had bought Starscream back when Thundercracker was rumored, with the hope that Hasbro would produce both Thundercracker and Skywarp. When Skywarp was announced at BotCon, and Thundercracker too, it was one of the many things that got me excited!

I was more concerned with the way that the torso in bot mode looks untabbed.

This guy has to be the worst Transformers photographer ever.

No, no, no. The seller at least got a majority of both figures transformed, with only Megatron's vehicle mode and Thundercracker's robot mode only mildly mistransformed. The Worst Transformers Figure Photographer Award goes to whoever did this:

That's not even close to bad. Behold:

It's a classic. There are some other bad ones somewhere else, however

EDIT: Here we go, courtesy of TFArchive. Get a load of Universe Razorclaw, now that's classic fail.

Yep, that's what I was getting at. Myself, JelZe, and you posted Universe Sideswipe. Goes to show how... memorable the stock photography is.

It's worth noting that Megatron's arms have a bicep swivel so he can have them looking like actual arms, too.

oh, that and he's your new Generations Megaplex, if you've already got enough Megatrons.

That is not Fall of Cybertron Thundercracker.

Though they share the same body-type, the character that toy represents is IDW Thundercracker.

Jesus, makes Sideswipe's mishap look like it's supposed to be transformed like that.

craggy, no! Don't tell me that! That'll make me buy it: I'm trying to pool my funds toward the other Generations figures!

O hush you We all know IDW repurposed FoC designs as G1 Cybertronian forms (as have a lot of other fans), so now we can do the opposite, repurpose IDW Thundercracker as FoC.

Yeah, good luck trying to convince Sabrblade that characters can be repurposed. It invites his righteous fury.

Of course he can be repurposed. I'm just debunking the belief that the pre-repurposed toy as is represents the Aligned guy instead of the IDW guy.

Remember how I said I bough Marvel Crossovers Ghost Rider just to repurposed him as Animated The Fallen?

really like the megatron, and cant have to many seekers in my opinion.
