By way of the Foktoy weibo account we have some nice in-hand images of the soon to be released Transformers Generations IDW style Deluxe Bumblebee, Hoist, and Trailcutter. These figures will come packed with a copy of their respective Transformers Spotlight comic from IDW Publishing. They haven't posted too many images of Trailcutter, but some great looks at Bumblebee and Hoist. Check em out below.

Man i really like hoist, the colors really work for that mold, I dare say it works better that trailbreakercutter. Also i really the IDW bumblebee, it's actually tempting, which would make it the first bumblebee i've bought in 6 or 7 years

Finally, a photographer that knows how to transform a Transformer.

Not particularly bummed about Trailbreaker not being as featured as the other two: after all, we've already received a video review of him.

God, I need that Hoist!

I want Bumblebee, but not as Bumblebee. I'm happy to see Goldbug coming down the pipe, gives me an excuse to pick up the mold.

Nice to see Hoist can actually hoist. I dont know what it is but that G1esque Bumblebee head just doesnt look right on a Camaro. Maybe from looking at all the movie ones but just looks out of place to me.

Hoist is looking like a pretty good retool of Trialbreaker much like Sandstorm

Glad I dont have to buy takrar version of bee this does have stripes I know it sounds tedious to have stripes but he didnt look without stripes on

Hoist and Trailbre....errr...Trailcutter I will get for sure, but I'm thinking I prefer the RTS Bumblebee over this one..... I'm still debating it. Like its a fusion of G1, Movie, and Prime all in one.

Trailwhatever and Hoist are sexy!

My classic G1 Bumblebee & Goldbug spots are filled, but my classic Armada Corona / Sparkplug spot is open and Hot Shot, Jolt and Botcon Treadshot Sideswipe are looking for a friend. So BB and Goldfire? Have a home here.

I have to admit there are way too many bumblebees but this one takes the cake, I would buy it!!

[RK_Striker_JK_5]

any preorders yet for Generations Hoist?

[Gundamu]

Wow! Looking forward to getting Hoist. Bumblebee actually looks like a damn good figure. Wouldn't hate seeing that mold again based on first impressions.

[VioMeTriX]

that has to be the emtiest most generic looking bumblebee i have ever seen.... in car mode he could easily be mistaken for a cheap knock off. hes just so hollow and empty with a paintjob that looks like a 2 yr old did it with paint by numbers....

reminds me of a McDonalds or cereal box give away toy

[Sodan-1]

Hoist really does look glorious. I can't wait to get hold of him. Bumblebee's yellow looks like the typical naff yellow, but considering Takara are forgoing Bumblebee for Goldbug I guess I've got no choice.

What annoys me is that Bumblebee appears to be of similar height to RTS Jazz, and yet Trailcutter and Hoist are a bit lacking. I'll have to keep them away from all the other Autobots and hope no one notices.
