I dunno why I clicked the site link when you already stated it was pretty much just RID2015 and Rescue Bots stuff.


Still sore that they never got AoE Wave 2 Voyagers in. Hound is on my want list.
I have anxiety, depression and aspergers syndrome so my behaviour can be erratic. I don't mean offense to anyone. Just very picky about my Transformers collecting. You're all cool! :)

Likes: Bayverse, Marvel UK G1, Geoff Senior art, '86 movie (more for style/soundtrack rather than Star Wars plot)
Dislikes: Bumblebee movie (lousy rehashed dumb crud), TFA, G1 cartoon, IDW G1, BW/BM, MP. The entire concept of Autobot Megatron

Well there is a difference in liking the line and disliking a figure, but, I agree. Beyond the design lending itself to becoming a base rather easily - I think there are/were more worthy candidates for the leader class figures, but I admit that - outside of disliking the characters - I am intrigued by the base combining gimmick. I am very eager to see what Ryan does with them for his galleries, once he has a bunch of them.

Plus, there is the caveat that these aren't technically headmasters, they're the character themself becoming the head/piloting a conveniently designed mech based on them (i.e. megatron pilots the galvatron mech - it's splitting hairs, but it is an important distinction to make)
I am not a G1 fan, please treat my opinions as such.

You know what though, there might be a subscale going on in the generations figures. We all can attest that Leader Megatron is out of scale. Some like that he is this big and that is perfectly fine, but he is out of scale none the less when compared to Leader Ultra Magnus or Jetfire or Classics prime ect. So for all intents and purposes, he was a stand alone out of scale figure which could be put wherever people found it to their liking. However, we then got the leader seekers (obviously also out of scale, since they are made from a mold of a character that was always bigger than them). And they fit together nicely. The leaders scale with oneanother. Now we have Blaster who is also leader class. With Buzzsaw around being a decepticon media player, it goes without saying that we will eventually see a leader decepticon media player for him to interact with: Soundwave. So, you would end up with a new of generations figures, in parallel release with the other classes. You would get Megatron, all three seekers, the tapes and Soundwave (so most of the initial Decepticons) all scaling with eachother in this new leader scale.

Probably like a bunch of folks, I just got an email from BBTS that have the second Autobot combiner limb wave up for preorders:

http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/sear ... m_content=

They have a set of two each, one each and individual bots up. Better grab em while they last.

No Skylynx spotted at this time.

Hound is already sold out. But ordered Smokescreen and Wheeljack for myself. Needed a new Smokescreen anyway, and as for Wheeljack, just wanted him. Lol

What do they have against just molding that little elbow joint on the Dead End mold the same color as the rest of the figure and painting just a tiny piece of it to make it seamless with the rest of the figure? #-o

As far as repaints go, they look alright (except for Smokescreen who just looks too lazy), but the choice of characters going with Sky Lynx seems a little strange. The combiner is called Sky Reign and the four limbs are all cars.

Even if they didn't have some flying characters to go with, maybe some guys that actually were in the same wave as Sky Lynx might have seemed appropriate.

Yeah, I also find that weird since Skylynx is the only bot in all these G1 characters being made as toys in the CW line to be from the post movie era while it seems the main idea Hasbro is going for (from what I can tell) is pre movie era.

EDIT: Yeah, there is rodimus, but I was looking more at limbs and torsos.

Well, in the Marvel Comics version, Sky Lynx existed in the present day (the 1980s) rather than the future (the 2000s), and was an old friend of Wheeljack's. So there is at least that connection between those two.

The guys at botcon alluded to his being a favorite of the design team, as well as being popular with fans in general. I kinda agree that the team doesn't really fit with a flier, but what other fliers were there? alpha bravo as Springer... pass...

We know that's why they made Sky Lynx, but it isn't fiction justification for why he's paired with four guys he's rarely ever been associated with. I was talking about this when I mentioned Wheeljack and Sky Lynx having been old friends in Marvel G1.

Fiction justification, please, they just have to have it happen in the comics, and there. Honestly, the reasons for this mash-up are probably more worldy than fictitious - like trademark, or that kids like good guys, or something else. They could have given us jetfire out of airraid, they both have moving wings...

Or that the choices for the four limb characters were simply that they're ones that could be easily made from the preexisting Prowl, Swindle, Offroad, and Breakdown molds.

The point is, though, that most people would expect a Sky Lynx combiner to have the guy teamed up with 1986/"Season 3" Autobots rather than 1984-1985/"Seasons 1-2" Autobots. My Wheeljack/Sky Lynx justification was in response to that.

And it was Rook, not AB, whom was suggested for Springer.
