Anyhow, I'll probably get BoneCrusher as I didn't get the 07 one and I need one, but they NEED to make a very large Voyager of him. At least with Blackout there's many supplies out there to build a bigger one, but it's a bit tougher with BoneCrusher.
EDIT:I forgot, that BumbleBee repaint looks like the worst repaint I've ever seen.

I really really like it. It's so terrible that it's kind of awesome.
I think G2 fever is affecting more than just Botcon maybe..

Maybe if it was on a different character, but I don't know, too bright, and I hate the(as someone put it) "Lemur Head."
I'll be waiting for the one with the Axe.

(And you'd think they'd actually paint her in purple! And use a new mold! But then again, they might have a pathetic excuse which means they can't use the purple it should have. And I can only think that the same mold as Chromia means it's cost-effective...Same reason they are re-issuing the Deluxe Bonecrusher and not creating the Voyager that we need!)

Glad that BB repaint isn't a lot like all the other BBs.

I under stand that pepole love or hate the movies, it's just that people love TransFormers. I thought a lot more sold then that.
Anyway, I hope the new stuff, generations, leader class Starscream etc... come out soon.

Give up. Kids don't want them, Hasbro doesn't care about scale, so we won't get them. It's that simple.
Only the last two repaints are news to me, and Bumblebee's looking a bit blue from either lack of love from fans, or choking love from the kids The Breakaway repaint looks ok, I'd need to know who he is first. O, and a close-up on the head. Will it be a Breakaway head, or Thrust head?

Then we must uh...make them want it! Yessss, now to make a stupid plan that will definitely fail and result in explosion along with "we're blasting off again...*twing*"

So? They've been reliable in the past. Besides, they'd know whether or not a toy is a KO given their expertise.

I'm on the fence with Elita-1. I'm sure she'll shelf-warm so I'll wait and see if they repaint the Arcee mold (or this one) purple.
As for Bonecrusher, if they named him Conebrusher or Crushboner he would be bought on sight, but as is, no.

On a related note, as far as ROTF repaints, I am digging on the Fallen repaint. He looks nice in blue & finally has a staff.
Whoa... I've never heard of this Fallen repaint with staff! Where? Any pics? Etc?

Ooh thanks! When was this taken/shown/reported?
You know, if that was done in movie-accurate colours, that'd be on my list in no time!

This pic is from TFW2005.com's gallery of upcoming figures for Generations/HFTD from Botcon. Don't think it's been reported here yet. There is also going to be a Generations Dirge, if that tickles your fancy.

...that could work quite well, actually.
GAH! I forgot to post what I really wanted to say! >_<
I'm thinking that Fallen figure is either a test shot (which would explain the lack of paint apps), or they're trying to make the Primes figures.
Either way, it's an ugly figure and needs apps, STAT.

I prefer the old one with the more Xenomorph-like 'crown' to this new (screen-accurate) pharaoh crown. Though I wish mine had the cool staff.
EDIT: Not making Blackout Leader Class for scale is one thing, but this is ridiculous:
