Back during Cybertron Con 2012 we learned that the Asian market would be getting Leader Class HFTD Starscream and DOTM Ironhide redecoed in their G1 colors under the Generations line. Now the Toys2mail facebook page has posted a clearer image of the figures from a Hasbro product catalog. Images mirrored below.

I doubt they will, but it would be pretty sweet if Starscream's sound clips were replaced with memorable quotes from the G1 cartoon.

Or Movie Starscream's voice actor doing homages to said memorable quotes from Ol' Glory.
After the way Hasbro approached DOTM, Movie figures hasn't been at the top of my collecting-priority. Really digging that Starscream, but it's not enough to grab my attention.

I worry that Starscream's black helmet thingy will look... odd. His alt mode is top-notch though, and I love that Ironhide.
Shame I don't collect movie stuff anymore... wait, no it's not.![>:oP]( "Drinking Coffee")

i would've probably bought that ironhide if it was release during DOTM, but it wasnt so oh well. Hell i would've bought the voyager if it was actually red instead of that orange they used. Just more proof that hasbro has no idea what they're doing anymore, instead of doing these they make 50 bumblebees that clog the shelves.

It's pretty red. Lighter than the G1 I guess, but good enough for me.
This Starscream is actually a lot uglier than I imagined in robot mode. I'm not too bothered by missing out on this one. Ironhide on the other hand... pretty cool. But I already have the Voyager, and I won't pay import prices for something I don't really need.

Easy pass for me as i already have both original versions.
Both are great figures but i wish Ironhide was more in scale with the other figures, he's way too big. Now you know what would make me happy, leader class DOTM Ratchet, Megatron and a Movie 1 Blackout.

If you didn't know already, I'm a big starscream fan. Knowing me, I will WANT that repaint. Well, as long that's it below 100$ including shipping.
But I guess I'm asking for too much.
In the meantime, I'm enjoying my G1 repaint of the 2007 mold. I really love what they did. Especially that new goblin head.

Same, though Leader Ironhide's in scale with the Human Alliance vehicles, so not too much a of a worry for me. ^^ But I would LOVE a Leader Ratchet to go with him/them! ^^
Speaking of which, anybody think they missed a trick...I know, nothing new there...But with DOTM Deluxe Ratchet? They could've avoided the slightly pontless red repaint and re-deco'd him in his Movie 1/ROTF colour scheme! They did the same (in reverse) with the Voyager!

Ah, but the head wasn't new. The G1 coloured 'Screamer was repainted from the main line Thundercracker remould. The Walmart Skywarp from the RotF line also uses that tooling. I just wish that Thrust and Dirge had been done from either the original 07 mould or the RotF voyager Starscream to go with the Walmart Ramjet that used the original head. I like to be able to put together a set of at least the main six with my Seekers (he says realising that he has yet to track down the G1 deco Starscream![:oops:]( "Embarassed")
).

waaaaaaaaat... dammit all these asian releases are fantastic. I would have literally bought every single one of these figures if they pushed them in the u.s.

Ironhide is a possible grab...I wouldn't mind repaint of that mold!
As for the Starscream I don't think I will go for it. One because I already repainted mine last year, and two because that head looks like he is wearing some funky helm.
