*notices Warnado, or "War Tornado" looks like Cyclonus*

*groans*

Then again, not exactly like this size class has been very accurate - Dragbreak, anyone?

The Legion is Cyclonus proper, as the Galvatronus combiner one has the same alt mode.

They are slightly bigger.
(far right Grimlock)

I like that lobsterboy is essentially a Vehicon with some remolded robit parts.

I got Blastwave already, only because I like the deco, and it resembles a KO I own. I've renamed him Dokuronin.
But that won't stop me from getting Bludegon as the G1 guy. Best part: no rubbery plastic to worry about. Those bent swords, ugh.

Check out the picture below and tell us if you plan to get these two in the Energon Pub!
Finally, I was starting worry that these guys were gonna get cancelled.

WARNADO.
That's the best name we've had in recent years.

Wait.
WAIT!!
Lobster Bisk(Bisque) and Lobster Thermidor?! WHERE'S LEGO BATMAN?! IT'S HIS FAVORITE!!
I'm sorry if that has already been discussed, I just found it extra hilarious just right now.
I'll definitely pick up Bludgeon..and probably Thermidor too

That would explain why Wildbreak has the G1 Dragstrip alt mode instead of both sharing the same car and why their positions on the combiner are switched.

Btw i've tried TRU Singapore website as well as BBTS, Kapow, Smyth's Toys, Hamleys, Amazon, Ebay, The Chosen Prime, Robotkingdom & The Entertainer for Thermidor(either in stock or preorder) but sadly....no joy

A truck, the combiner chest plate just isn't flipped back.

Bludgeon and Twinferno are the next warrior buys for me. Keep passing on Blastwave so Bludgeon needs to get here so I can buy him too

I only bought Blastwave because I'll need it to review Bludgeon. If they AT LEAST would've given Blastwave a different face, I'd keep it.

Get red symbols, make him SG Bludgeon. that is why I have almost bought him several times!

Yeah but this mold is new, easy to come by, and is a better figure

Thinking more about it, he could be SG Aligned Bludgeon, now that there's a whole SG multiverse out there.D-Maximus_Prime wrote:Sabrblade wrote:But this is SG Bludgeon.D-Maximus_Prime wrote:chuckdawg1999 wrote:D-Maximus_Prime wrote:I have the crash combiners I wanted, so I am happy.

Anyways, this looks like it'll be a pretty decent figure. Not something to go out of your way for, but I see myself snagging this if it happens to be on the shelf.

really puts the disguise in robots in disguise.
Only looks like dc/tf in the most superficial of ways. There maybe be some interesting Warriors I'd pick up it I weren't futilely holding out saving my mons, hon, for TR figures, but I don't think I'd pick this up if RID was the only line instead of 1 of 3.
