Terradive is awesome. =P~

With a paint job, he could make a very good deluxe Ramjet. :-?

I just preorder all three of these guys from BBTS, cant wait to get them, to me Jolt looks interesting. So Im guessing Series 04 will consist of Axor, Muddy Mudflap, and the Bonecrusher repaint. And to my guess there will be be 2 more waves after 4. Btw, for those who watch the Cyber Missions, Episode 7 is up on youtube!!!

Wow...the new molds are flat out SICK! GIMME! GIMME! GIMME! Definitely some of the best molds of the ROTF line period.

It may just be me, but is anyone else getting a distinct Armada Cyclonus vibe from Tomahawk? I can easily see someone repainting him...that head almost looks spot on.

WIN WIN WIN...and then there's Electrocraptastic Jolt. I suppose every wave has to have its turd. #-o

Now taht you mention it, yeah, he does look kinda like Armada Cyclonus... Hasbro, I swear to God if you actually repaint him into Cyclonus... I will worship the very ground you guys stood on.... :PRAY:

Jolt looks... the exact same as before!
C'mon Hasbro. He was barely in the movie, at least give him an awesome paint job.

The other two, wow.
Those guys look great.

Wow. I am really impressed with the two new molds. Also, Jolt is a very good figure if anyone passed him up from before. Honestly, you should be able to get either the new color scheme or the old-the original has become a shelf-warmer.

So getting Terradive and Tomahawk. Looks real awesome!!

by **zenosaurus_x** » Thu Jun 17, 2010 12:16 am

Hmm...Terradive's all I'm interested in, unique weapon, alt-mode, look, AND customizing potential, I like it.

Funny, when i look at him i don't see a RoTF Rotorstorm. I see that my classics Roadbuster (with the 3rd party head sculpt) is getting his old Wreckers ally Whirl finally. For this is the 1st helicopter toy in the deluxe scale (since before the Armada toy line), that actually heavily reminds me of my old G1 toy. Now if only the company that did the alternate head sculpt for Roadbuster, will do one for Tomahawk as well, to complete that G1 Whirl look.

Indeed, not sure why TFwiki insists that he looks like Spy Streak. Apart from the head.

However, as a homage to this character, I might save a spot on my list for him.

If not for the legs I would probably agree with you.

Though, while on the subject of apache choppers. The mold does remind me of Energon Bulkhead.

The Creature from the Black Lagoon? I love these new molds and even the repaint Red Alert.

Tomahawk is my classics Armada Cyclonus.
And Terradive is badass.
I must have these two.

News Credits: 226 · by **Burn** » Thu Jun 17, 2010 3:10 am

So Terradive has the face of BW Depth Charge and carries a trident like Poseidon's.

But transforms into a jet.

Gotta love the look of him though.

HASBRO is making up for Blazemaster with Tomahawk.

And Terradive is awesome, but I want to know where his trident stores in alt mode, or does it come apart?

Much excellent repaint potential in these.

The Trident, not the gum variety, is stored in Terradive's undercarriage in alternate mode, you can see that in the alternate mode image.

I think Terradrive looks like this Bounty Hounter (one with the hat) from StarWars: The Clone Wars or at least he get some of influences from this commentary video:

I'm not big on movieverse figures or the movies for that matter, but these are cool!

by **autobot-jolt** » Thu Jun 17, 2010 9:35 am

DAMN...

All 3 lolok good. Yes, all THREE, since most of you hate Jolt, I'll have no problem finding him. A lot better then the original Jolt IMO. Tomahawk is very cool, though I feel there's something "Transformer-ish" lacking about him, I have no idea why I feel that way, it just seems that way. Terrradive is cool, all the kibble is placed perfectly.

Still have to wait another 2 months for these though, with that stupid promo Hasbro is having till the end of july... :BANG_HEAD:

With a new head mold and some new paint, i can see Tomahawk repainted into Spinister for the upcoming Gen-line figures.

News Credits: 2 · by **paul053** » Thu Jun 17, 2010 10:27 am

Terradive looks really, really nice. The jet looks good from the top but I kind of want to see from the bottom.

News Credits: 11 · by **kirbenvost** » Thu Jun 17, 2010 10:29 am

Hmm. Terradive looks really awesome in jet mode, but I'm not a big fan of the head. Tomahawk looks pretty cool as well, but I need an homage to add him to my collection... well, maybe when we see actual toy images they'll be too cool to pass up.

Looks like if you headswap him with, say, Payload, he'd make a great Whirl homage...

Depth Charge's "vehicle" mode was a Jet/Star Hopper, so a repaint could be in our future.

Terradive & Tomahawk are frakin amazing. jolt is a cool figure but they didnt change it up enough from the original for me to think about buying it so, ill just stick with the 1st version.

Maybe, but it looks like he's black instead blue, and I'm not really into repainting.
