Previewed at ToyFair 2011 and a couple of other characters you might have interest in, we've got some sweet looks at Deluxe Topspin, Ratchet, Roadbuster, Jolt and Bumblebee. They are joined by Voyager Shockwave and Skyhammer. Topspin and Roadbuster fill our two-thirds of the Nascar group, the Wreckers. Ratchet, Bumblebee and Jolt feature brand new molds. Shockwave and Skyhammer are both Voyager class, and we get more looks of the Decepticon villain, and an alternate mode look at the sleek Helicopter. Check them out below!

I think ill just buy Shockwave and call it a day. Not so much liking the Nascars, but I do like that real advertising is used on the cars like G1 Mirage and Jazz. It's about time Hasbro got smart and got paid sponsers ads to make the figures look more real, instead of using flames or something dumb for graphics.

Warming up to Topspin but what is up with Roadbuster? Is there a reason why the toy looks very little like the version that we are going to see on-screen and at the start of the Daytona 500? It's a plain race car with a goofy gun dropped on the roof.
Also warming up to the helicopter a bit but still have that whole rotor placement thing to get past. Not very fond of how they did that one but the alt mode is definitely sweet and might be the selling point for me.
So that makes for 2 very strong 'Maybe' votes which is up from last month for me. I'll leave it at that since the rest would all be derisive.

Really like Topspin's alt mode. His robot mode is growing on me. Roadbuster looks ok but the lack of paint apps kills the detail in the mold.

I think the new deluxe mold for Rathet is pointless.

I'm glad to see forearm/wrist swivels on BB.

I actually really like Jolt. The feet are a little off but I'm loving the rest.

Shockwave and the Helicopter are buys as well.

Am I the only one who thinks that Bumblebee looks sweet. Also Ratchet's weapon looks like a tommy gun with an oversized clip (that is awesome) :grin:

A good number of those are pretty cool. I really like the aesthetic look of Topspin, though not as fond as his green buddy. Ratchet looks alright. I also think Jolt looks great (albeit, different). The new look (in general and being white) is pretty cool and suits him quite well, though I think the blue was a good colour for him. I am sad that he lacks his whips though, and it would have been pretty cool if his MechTech weapon was at least a whip. And of course Shockwave and Skyhammer looking good as always.

So my question is why doesn't the green wrecker car have all that cool armor stuff in car mode like the blue one has and like the pictures we saw of him from the new movie? :-? Hmmm..... He just looks like an ordinary nascar dissapointment........ :-(

Topspin looks awesome, Roadbuster looks great although its a shame the side Mechtech ports don't work - prevents me from shoving all of the crap weapons on him to beef him up. Like everyone else I don't particularly like the lack of paint on robot mode, but the detail of the mold negates that for me. I wonder if Leadfoot will be beefed up or a regular NASCAR car?
Bumblebee looks pretty rubbish, I really don't like that gun, and how they've taken away his BB axe and arm cannon. Also the lack of paint on his feet kind of puts me off. A shame, because his vehicle mode is starting to look really good.
I'll get Ratchet if his robot is of reasonable size. Quite disappointed that it isn't Voyager though. Jolt looks thorougly awesome, but if he isn't in the film, its a miss for me purely because of the paint job :-(
Do you even need to hear my opinion on Shockwave and Skyhammer? Wonder if the latter will be in the film.

I don't need the new BB but I like the other cars. Makes me wish I hadn't bought the other deluxe Ratchet though :-x

Blue nascar is a buy for me it's the only mechtech figure i realy like.

green nascar is lacking so much colour and his weopon is pointless but i'll probly buy when it's cheaper.

Shockwave is a buy.

Sky Hammer is a buy i must be the only person who likes the rotor on his chest,I love moulds that are totally changed, I bet people would be more pissed if it was a Blackout/Grindor mould again.

Ratchet,BumbleBee and Jolt YAAAWWWNNN! either seen it a million times(BB)or just pointless (Jolt looks crap ).

I love Roadbuster and Topspin's robot mode is growing on me. To be honest I wouldn't mind the redneck thing as long as they are the trigger-happy kinda redneck or even like the Dukes of Hazard. With our luck we will get the blue collar comedy tour though.

Shockwave looks better and better every time I see him and I personally love Skyhammer in both modes

Not too many of the movie figures are really impressing me. The only ones that intrigue me are Shockwave, Sentinel Prime, Skyhammer, and Powerglide. Everything else is whatever. Do wish the Nascars were the Stunticons though and there was a Motormaster to contend w/ Prime.

I was really hoping this Skyhammer guy was gonna be Whirl!!! I like him though, as Whirl!! The BB alt mode sure looks smooth, other than that plastic turd atop his roof. I'm not sure how I feel about the Wreckers, but I recommend you buy these guys. God knows rednecks love there Die-cast model racecars, they will probally buy these. Won't be able to transform, but whatever. I will get them to pawn at a later date for G1 retro badassedness!!! :twisted:

I don't like the new Jolt, he looks so plain and downright boring.

Don't care for Ratchet either, about time Hasbro gave us a new voyager Ratchet that looked good. The one from the first movie while nice looked a bit meh.

Topspin looks pretty good, but unfortunately it doesn't look like he'll be able to have an unarmed vehicle mode, and I still don't like the lime green on his robot mode. Roadbuster looks really plain in both modes, however. Ratchet looks okay, but I'm not a fan of the robot mode. Shockwave looks great, but I'll only get the Voyager one if we get word form Hasbro that there will be no Leader figure of him. I'll definitely be getting Skyhammer to use as Whirl for my Classics Wreckers.

Don't really like "drop a giant gun on top of the car" thing. Granted i'll likely pick up the Wreckers just because they're Nascars. Specifically Roadbuster since the 88 car happens to be my favorite.
