Toy Images of Generations Thunderwing

Posted by Mach Oct 30, 2010 at 8:12am CDT 44,250 views
Our friend kotoys has just posted a new gallery of upcoming Generations Thunderwing. Thunderwing is part of the Generations Wave 5 figures.
Thunderwing had a prominent role in Marvel's Transformers comic book as a Decepticon warlord and also several appearances in the U.K comics which predate his appearance in U.S., showing how Thunderwing rose from being a young, promising warlord to leader of the Decepticons.















You can view the full gallery of Thunderwing here.

It doesn't look as bad as it did in the other shots. I think I will change my mind and get one, he was a favorite of mine in the comics. I just hope that back kibble in robot mode can be taken off easily. He will be displayed in robot mode only, just as Straxus (or Darkmount :roll: ) so I won't need that stuff on his back.

You know, with a few minor paint changes, I can see this figure as Energon Megatron or Galvatron. All in all, I like it. I'll never see it here, but I like it. We're still on Wave 1 of the Generations figures and HFTD figures...three waves behind the rest of the country.

So considering that Thrust is slightly smaller than Generations/Henkei Thrust it's still big enough to be a deluxe right? His bot mode kinda and I do stress KINDA reminds me of energon Megatron. All in all he's pretty damn cool 'nuff said! :CON:

Well... despite how underwhelming he looks (mainly due to the class size, should be voyager at least) I think I will get him cos I love the Marvel comics incarnation of him. Wish he had an accurate Geoff Senior-style evil snarly face though. Nobody draws mean looking Decepticons like Senior did. Always did want a physical representation of the character and this is a lot more affordable (and posable) than the old G1 toy which gets crazy prices these days.

Looks like a great mold and I'll definitely be picking him up.

A bit like Jazz though, the white/grey bits just seem like they're lacking something, I think a wash with a slightly darker colour should help.

I am only collecting G1 toys but this is a must for me to get. He looks awesome.

Definite buy.

I loved his Marvel incarnation. Such a pity IDW ruined him with the hollow, soulless Stormbringer.

Great toy though.

Would love to get the Hotshot/Springer/Roadbuster mold repainted as Ruckus to go with him.

This guy is looking a lot better than I first thought. His head sculpt looks really good. I wish we would have gotten pictures of the drone.

I'm really loving this figure. The jet mode looks really good, and I like the colours and styling of the robot mode.

I think he looks really cool. The initial images of him didn't look that good, but these make him look pretty awesome. Looking forward to getting him.

He looks really plastic-y. Maybe it's just that off-white plastic... He still looks cool, though. I'll get him.

Awesome amounts of win. I think the only way we can get something better than this as a Thunderwing would be if FP did one(Pretender Style) so that he could have the upgraded appearance he had in Stormbringer, but hey this is pretty damned close.

Yeah, look good doesnt it. Alt mode colour is a bit bland but bot mode makes up for it.

I agree with that too. The voyager is a good figure but does not fill the classic's spot for Bludgeon. I If Hasbro does release a Bludgeon figure in the Generation's line, I'd like to use HeadRobot's Blood IDW style head for him :grin:
