Transformers Colombia, a Facebook fan page, has provided the first official in and out of package images of the upcoming Generations Deluxes Rattrap and Tankor, courtesy of group member
Felipe León Nájera.

Just recently we had heard that these figures have been delayed until a future wave and that their current assortment(s) had been canceled, as seen here. These pictures will have to tide us over until they do find a retail release date.

We've mirrored the images below:

Remember, if Rattrap doesn't see the light of day we riot.

I'm still a fan of the original Beast Wars Rattrap, but that is a cool looking Rattrap. Tankor questions me because the toy is a Deluxe, like the Tankor soldiers in Beast Machines. If I like him, then I'll start army-building.

I want these badly! Also i was looking forward to crosscut. Where is his pic? I loved his head sculpt and the silver.

Rattrap is still looking like a pretty good figure, but Tankor... I dunno. Something about him bugs me, and I can't quite put my finger down on it.

Tankor... I may get

I thought i wanted Ratrap but not so much any more. I'll wait for Sky-byte.

Waspinator was cool though. Glad i grabbed him.

we shouldnt judge too harshly on thiese pics. the first pics didnt have rattrap with jazz hands, so they can obviously be folded away.

hopefully what people take away from this, is that YES the figure are actually coming out and the rabble rabble can die down a bit.

That's the first thing I thought of too when I saw Rattrap... Jazz Hands!

After a prototype is created, doesn't anyone at HasTak ever speak up and say, "Hey, we need to rethink this design a tad bit." I mean, we've all pretty much decided that a Quality Control Department is non-existent at HasTak. But this is something that could've been prevented right out of the starting gate. Because how could anyone have missed these "Jazz Hands?" We sure as hell didn't. Sad.

It's not about the Jazz hands it's just the overall aesthetic. His bot mode seems a bit lazy to me and i don't like the bot bits in alt mode. I know it's a BW homage and i should accept the design flaws considering the source material but i like to think the bot mode could have been executed a little more creatively.

Now that several Beast Wars/Machines characters have been released recently (CHUG Dinobot & Cheetor, Anniversary Primal & Megatron, Generations Rhinox, & the upcoming Rattrap & Tankor), does anyone think that an updated/ show accurate Beast Wars season 1 Blackarchnia is possible?

some of those weren't that recent, but yeah, I think they could do an okay BA. The spider-butt would probably have to be a back-pack, but I think it would be doable.

Jazz hands were the very first thing I saw, too!

Also, judging from the comic cover, I think Tankor would look infinitely better proportioned if his head was smaller.

Thoughts?
