It looks like i-Gear is serious about Wreckers, as they have uploaded an album on their facebook page titled "Wreckers". This album contains the previously revealed Impactor head and as of now the heads to
  • Rotorstorm
  • Pyro
  • Guzzle
  • "Fizitron" Ironfist
And yes they are all accurate to Nick Roche's artwork for Last Stand of the Wreckers!
Click the following images to see the original album.

Love the sculpts but isn't it the Wreckers not the Wreakers

That Pyro head better fit on Timelines Pyro/Spark or whatever.

I think I'm going to cry from the sheer awesomeness of these... :BOOM:

This is very cool. I can only assume (and hope) that iGear will also be producing the figures to go along with them. If their quality is anything like their Weapon and Medical Specialists, then these will be AWESOME! Here's to a future Wreckers army!

I think one of my questions has been answered about the iGear Ironhide and Ratchet photos.

Even if they just provide heads, so they could replace ball jointed heads that would be awesome!!!!!!

Would you be referring to the photo with the blurry additional heads??

If so, I'll agree with you that these were more than likely those heads. But if you're suggesting that iGear's attempt at a Wreckers team is just going to be clones of their Ironhide and Ratchet figure with different heads then I'm here to tell you that that is not going to happen.

Why???

Because I'd happily kill us all before I let that happen.

Option one was my assumption.

Where do I put these, exactly?

If it is just Ironhide/Ratchet clones, I'm out.

Posted by Requiem Prime on June 3rd, 2011 @ 10:46am CDT
Lovely heads, but what about the bodies?
Re: I-Gear Wrecker heads (1233014)
Posted by gothsaurus on June 3rd, 2011 @ 10:49am CDT
Yeah, SURELY they're giving more thought to the Wreckers than just slapping their heads on any-ole-body. Those bots (and vehicles) all look a lot different from Ironhide/Ratchet. Plus, we'll already have a COUPLE of that mold from just those two.

Guessing they'll either have real bodies for these bots that transform (hoping) OR recommendations from Classics to attach the heads to (and do our own repaints). I'd be happy with that, too.

WOULDN'T be happy with an army of Ratchets with wrong-heads.

I DOLOVE these sculpts. Can't imagine HasTak hasn't put these guys out yet proper.

Posted by Joker'sRequiem on June 3rd, 2011 @ 10:53am CDT
I'm loving the heads so far, I'm just waiting to see what they do with them. I'd love to be able to have a true team of Wreckers at last, so I don't want to be disappointed.

I wouldn't be happy with that! I can barely colour inbetween the lines of a colouring book, let alone paint my own Transformers.

These loo amazing. I'm trying not to get to excited but damn...I love me some Wreckers. Please, do not just be head sculpts... =P~
Re: I-Gear Wrecker heads (1233055)
Posted by kirbenvost on June 3rd, 2011 @ 11:27am CDT
Hmm, pretty cool, but I wouldn't know what to put them on if it's just a set of heads.

I agree. I could use Pyro on the classics Inferno mold and be ok with it but I foresee iGear giving us full figures. It's going to be a while though.
Re: I-Gear Wrecker heads (1233108)
Posted by Prime Evil on June 3rd, 2011 @ 12:28pm CDT
My money is on that they will be doing as many full figures as possible. I'd actually be fine with just a head replacement for Botcon Pyro however.
Re: I-Gear Wrecker heads (1233130)
Posted by gothsaurus on June 3rd, 2011 @ 12:55pm CDT
Oh yeah. We DID get Pyro that year, and we're getting Ironfist this year. Were any others ever reissued at Botcon? My memory is failing me.

I don't think it will since it'll be hard finding figures for all of these heads (Especially Impactor) to go on, not to mention a lot of people don't really have that guy. :-?

No just those two. :-P
Re: I-Gear Wrecker heads (1233192)
Posted by gothsaurus on June 3rd, 2011 @ 2:33pm CDT
Okay, with the massive assumption that heads are for those two... who could the remaining ones pair up with from classics. Guess we're hunting a tank and a helicopter. Hmmmmmmm. Lots of tanks to pick from, but not much in the way of a helicopter.

*pulls heads off figures* :-?

Actually, what about those Energon combiners... and (heaven forbid) the FansProject Swindle!! *Snap* :sad:
Re: I-Gear Wrecker heads (1233260)
Posted by Jetstorm92210 on June 3rd, 2011 @ 4:33pm CDT
I bet that Rotorstorm head will work with Tomahawk (an almost perfect match, except for... the legs), Guzzle goes with ROFT Brawn/RTS Fallback (no brainer) or PCC Heavytread (I doubt it), Pyro goes with Inferno if you don't have Spark, Ironfist goes with Classics Ratchet/Ironhide and really... this one's controversial, Impactor should go with Cybertron Downshift/Movie Big Daddy, the robot mode is spot-on, plus it's a cool vehicle mode but not a tank, in that case Darkmount but it doesn't fit with Impactor's robot or tank mode.
Re: I-Gear Wrecker heads (1233264)
Posted by gothsaurus on June 3rd, 2011 @ 4:37pm CDT
Yeah, I'd hate it if they mixed series. Classics and movie toys are so different. (Yeah, I'm talking about YOU chicken legs.)

bawk?

Yeah, not sure I've seen many TFs that have screamed out to me that they were any of these characters (well, not the colours anyway). Outside of Botcon Pyro of course.

I hope we'll we'll see newly designed figures for them. My wallet hopes not.

There's now a Cyberverse Guzzle that could use that head.

Skyhammer might look good with the ROtorstorm head, or the TT Vortex.

PLEASE JUST PLEASE, release the figures, not just the heads. Bayformers would look ridiculous with these heads and classics don't really have proper forms.

Impactor: Here's a good one, Armada Smokescreen. As I recall, Transtopia did one, but one shoulder cannon, a tank possible if you remoce the crane.

You can't really swap the heads with the Cyberverse Guzzle, since his head is molded in and not removable, not to mention these were announced before Cyberverse Guzzle. :-?

Guzzle is the right colours, sure but any of the others are going to need some serious repainting too, and that's a little much for me. It also limits the product, turning it from a 3rd party add-on to a customiser accessory. I don't see them doing that. I suppose the heads could have their colours reworked to fit on existing bodies, but then what's the point of choosing recognisable characters?

Yeah, he does look like Impactor in vehicle mode if you remove the crane.

Third party toy maker iGear has revealed their take on Impactor of Wreckers' fame. The figure is dubbed Presser and appears to borrow some design elements from Generations Warpath. Take a look at the promotional artwork below from their facebook page.

Looks like a slightly modified Warpath mold.

AS the article says it is 'Not Impactor' of Wreckers fame. Star of Last Stand of the Wreckers comics, made famous originally for appearances in Marvel's UK TF series.

Looks like a badass combination of the Crossover Hulk and Generations Warpath.

This Impactor looks very impressive. Here's hoping I can fit him in my budget. I would love to start completing my set of Wreckers.
Re: I-Gear Wrecker heads (1235482)
Posted by Prime Evil on June 7th, 2011 @ 10:20am CDT
Will definitely, 100% buying THIS guy!! Absolutely love him. Just WOW!

Definitely has similarities to Warpath, but also different enough. Kudos. I'm hoping he will be about their Ironhide size. I'd like my not-Impactor to be a voyager. :grin:
Re: I-Gear Wrecker heads (1235488)
Posted by morphobots on June 7th, 2011 @ 10:41am CDT
Certainly saves me the trouble of having to repaint Warpath into a Classics Impactor. Oh, wait, that's right - I'd have to be able to find a Warpath first . . . Hasbro. :-x

Well, with no generations figure reveals at Botcon, looks like all my money is going 3rd party, just like you PE!

We need some size comparisons, but this could be a real oppertunity for iGear to get neck and neck with FP, if they price things right, and depending if this is through them or through BBTS.

Same here. I've been pretty hard on iGear over the last few years, but I'm warming up if they keep doing figures like this.
