Generations Deluxe Turbo Tracks Revealed

OOOkay, I've searched for Tracks' name in the news(to look up his bot mode), and it showed a Kiss Players news too

I've always liked Tracks for the sexy flamboyant character that he is...but now he is just FLAMING!!!

Nice Alt mode! I'm telling you, this wave of Generations is truly something to get excited for. Just need some newer pics of these guys in both alt and robot mode.

As far as his Alt mode, im sure he is still a Corvette, just modified and updated, like Sideswipe and Sunstreaker was supposed to be Lambos, but their actual car mode was a Bugatti.

Well, if Tracks looks like a Callaway Corvette, ill be be most pleased.

Huh? Pretty sure Sideswipe & Sunstreaker were still modified Lambos, they look a lot like a Gallardo with different taillights or something.

Anyway, Tracks looks close enough to a Vette for me. Too bad there aren't any bot mode pics.

oh thats a sexy bot. and i havent even seen his bot form yet but im sure its awesome. go tracks!!!!!

Depending of the robot mode configuration, I can see this as Generations Wheeljack.

Oh no. You could be right, but I hope not. Wheeljack deserves his own mold.

Awesome i want him.

All he needs is a nice autobot symbol on his hood.

For those who haven't seen his bot mode yet, check it out here:

I think he looks a lot like the Callaway Corvette, which is a win IMO. I'll add him to my classics shelf with joy.

Ok you got me on Sideswipe and Sunstreaker:

I swore i thought both of them was Bugattis, but hey can't go wrong with Lambos as alt modes and for Tracks: Callaway vettes are super awesome cars!!

So gonna own this.

I swear, Generations is raping and pillaging my wallet already....and it just got started!

He looks pretty cool. Isn't he supposed to have a flight mode?

Also it looks like he got a rub sign. Interesting that they have gone back to those.

A Buggatti? Sorry but Sideswipe and Sunstreaker and Red Alert and Punch/CP are definitely Lambo's. They are nowhere near Buggatti's.

Cybertron Crosswise is a Buggatti Veyron with a bit of Seat Cupra GT thrown in there for good measure.

The twins are Lambo Gallardo, maybe some Murcielago in there too.

Now THAT is a great classics style/generations figure. I'll definitely be buying him.

Awwww sick. That's a must have for me for sure!

In the previous Cybertron Convention pics, in bot mode it looked like he had wings which hadn't been folded out. Hopefully they'll be useable in vehicle mode too.

Hasbro has already said yes. So, yes. I think that came from Botcon.

As for "Name that car", remember too, a lot of them will be fudged, so that it looks like something, but isn't so close that Hasbro has to pay copyright licensing.

ahh thanks, good to know he has wings.

TFW has robot mode pics too. Can't say I find robot mode too stunning though.

Hasbro Stock Photos never are.

Here's the link to their pic: http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-new ... ks-170607/

He looks even better than I hoped. Even better than his G1 altmode.

I can't wait to see the robot mode in better detail, but so far he's a must buy.

Generations is really shaping up to be a tremendous line. Even with shaky designs such as Perceptor and Scourge, the designs are still drawing people like me in.

That's nothing short of amazing.

I'm lovin' the crap outta these guys.

EDIT: Found his robot mode link. Wow. Wow. Wow. Tracks, G1 or not...You. Are. Mine.

I shall own you and love you and call you George.

ACtoys.net has revealed the robot mode for the upcoming GENERATIONS "TURBO TRACKS" figure. This news is hot on the heels of the vehicle mode picture that was revealed earlier today. You can find the original post here on ACtoys.net.

Um...are we really going back to the rubsigns, and why? They were nice enough, I guess, but I prefer having the faction symbol visible outright on the toy.

Yeah I'm not a huge fan of the rubsigns either. But Tracks still looks good. :3

Oh, super win. I cannot pay for all of this...but I will find a way.

It's very similar to Alternator Tracks in Robot mode.

I know generations is a throw back to G1 and all, but both tracks and thundering look ugly in my opinion. Compared to all the other fabulously detailed generations toy, these two look primitive. I'm all for the classic look, and these definitely nail it and look great if that's what you want, but it just doesn't look like it fits next to the others. Their paint jobs make them look more like prototypes. And like some else pointed out already... Rubsigns? Really? Wreck Gar on the other hand looks fantasmical! Maybe they'll look better in person... Thrust turned out to be really awesome when I wasn't so interests in him.

It's good to see that tampographs are back. The Universe 2.0 line was sorely missing these.

The robot mode looks a bit kibbly, but I'm sure it's still made of win.

The Generations line in the future is so FRICKIN' AMAZING AND TOO AWESOME TO LOOK AT, I will literally freeze myself cryogenically like Megatron in '07, and set a timer for my awakening. If you see some chubby 15-year-old drooling over these guys in a Wal-Mart near you, that's probably me. Don't start making fun of me now.

The shoulders look substantially mistransformed - or more accurately misposed. The photographer seemed to be using the wrong joint for the shoulder joint - posing him correctly should give him nice broad shoulders at the appropriate level relative to his head, reducing the illusion of portliness his roof/chest gives.

Of course, I imagine the arms are mispositioned because of those doors on his sides being in the way, but I have a STRONG feeling those are either meant to fold back, or more likely fold down as a sort of kama (like on Alternator Tracks).

This thing must have a really complicated transformation if they keep screwing it up like this...

Anyway, I hate the legs, I despise the feet. A little too much Rotf*** happened down there Tracks.

Even though he's obviously mis-transformed, I think he looks great. I use to love rub signs, but now I don't know... I'm not too crazy about it. Mind you, I still can't wait to see some much better photos of this guy.

2011 cannot come to soon

Awesome, another win for generations.

This may be a stupid question, but is this a repaint of Drift?

Of course not, its a completely different mold.

He looks mistransformed.

Daaammmmmmnnnnn, that's freaking awesome. Perfect bot mode.

Hasbro appears to be incapable of properly transforming their own toys.

Hmm I just had a very pleasant thought for a repaint and remould. Obviously, we all thing Wheeljack needs a new mould unto himself. But my favorite TF, Downshift, could easily share this mould with Tracks without too many people complaining.

Remould the head, white paint and white plastic and he's pretty much a spot on from the second vehicle mode to the two missile launchers on both sides of his head.

DO WANT!

I hope this is just me, but his arms look really small. Overall, he bares a striking resemblance to his Alternators iteration. I just hope his arms aren't as small as they appear to be.

That's not a bad idea. I think its a very simple repaint that Hasbro can absolutely do.

I loved Tracks as a kid because he was a vette, my favorite car. I am so happy to see him getting an update. My only concern is not the size of his arms but, where his elbow should be. It looks like his arm flips up for tranformation soooo, he has this weird elbow type joint on his forearm???? Still gonna get him but, I think they could have come up with another idea for his arms to work out better. Just my opinion, no biggie.

This isn't a picture from Hasbro.

Agreed. It'd be awesome to have the Omnibots get some love once again.

My cousin actually works for Callaway. He literally drives corvettes into the ground everyday! Just last week he was playing in a twin turbo 'vette pushing 1k hp!!

And I agree, I would love a Callaway 'vette Transformer!

Your cousin is a LUCKY man and I guess I was a little harsh on Ol' Tracks. He is awesome looking I was just expecting Vette I guess. This will do.

This guy is looking great. Can't wait for official pictures of all of these guys. But as for now, I'd settle for wave two being released in my area..

Big fan! I like the Alternator nods. Can't wait to see more pics of Jazz, Thunderwing, Perceptor, and Scourge.

Tracks is my favorite G1 Autobot so to finally get a modern update of him is great. I do believe like everyone else that the bot mod is mistransformed but come on, don't we expect that by now. For those of you asking I do believe it was said at Bot-Con that Jazz would be repainted/remolded into Wheeljack. Apparently they share a similar Porsche design.

Hmm. With the way Generations is clogging the shelves here, looks like I might have to order these over the 'net to get the good stuff.

Everyone and their brother ordered bazillions of the first wave, and there's no room for new stuff when the current just isn't selling.
