I was hoping Blitzwing would be a Voyager considering he's a triple changer and is supposed to have the face gimmick. But I guess its not to be. I just hope the actual figure works out the 3 modes nicely and the 3 face gimmick is at least passable.

I'm kinda glad that Blitzwing is deluxe size. Lugnut doesn't look too tall and hopefully the two will be roughly the same size in robot mode.

Besides Astrotrain and Octane are deluxe sized too.

if they're having trouble fitting all the triple changing and face changing gimmicks into a deluxe Blitzwing, good luck coming up with the 'activator' version.

Ultimate class! I would really like to see what omega supreme looks like!
I am willing to bet we alreaddy know what OS's alt mode looks like, so we can probably extrapolate his robot mode from that (what object in the series has his same color scheme? hint hint).

is it their space shuttle the ARK??? transformed by the Allspark key??? if that's true, that would be cool!!!

I had been thinking that myself. Hey the Ark looks a little like Omega Supreme.

:-B

All good news... Man, those of us who are interested in this line are going to be spending a ton of $$$.

I really wish they were making all of the Constructicons, just because other than Soundwave, they're my favorite Decepticon characters.

Blitzwing as a deluxe may end up working out like Lockdown. Lockdown is really tall when he is transformed into robot mode.

every thing seems reasonable EXCEPT THE FACT THAT THE CONSTRUCTICONS ARE ONLY TO BOTS THAT I ASSUME THEY DONT COMBINE INTO DEVASTATOR!!!!!!RAWR

Comment by Bumblethumper Apr 10, 2008

I'm still cautiously optimistic on that one. They only list 2 waves of deluxes. The rest of the constructicons could be spread across subsequent waves.

I remember collecting G1 in the eighties, I remember usually seeing two, three at most separate constructicons for sale at any one time.

They only did that in G1. There's no cosmic law dictating that all Constructicons have to merge into Devastator. Animated is not G1, it has a totally different ethic and style to it. They might even have a robot called Devastator as a wrecking ball crane as a member of the sub-group, but not members merging into him, for example.

On the other hand, we didnt news it last week, and its the same source, with no hard evidence behind it.

But damn I want the Omega Supreme...

I didn't newsify it because I didn't know anything about TF08. Then they come up with all these galleries. So one wonders if they have a little bit of insider ability.

It was worth it, but we could have had this up last weekend, if I had seen more reason to believe their list.

Oh well. It's a rumor. We've had them on before.

Is Ultimate new Supreme, or are they finaly gonna kick it up a notch?

Also, this should silence the Blitzwing rumor of him being Voyager.

I don't think so. Roll Out Prime is on that list under 'Ultimate' but says 'Supreme Class' on the box.

As for confirmation of Blitzwing being deluxe class, I expect it will be, but I would still treat the information on this site as speculation.
