I have to be honest, they look awesome as I expected, but wheeljack doesnt look as nice as I imagined just because of the metallic green- almost too dark. I preferred the stock photo of the Hasbro version- but this may just be the rendering.. hopefully and it is not as dark.

These are great pics. So glad I ordered 2 Wheeljacks!

This looks fantastic. and finally a wheeljack that can move his arms :)

The united/classics line are seriously amazing!

I wonder what Hasbro's Wheeljack will look like?

Considering how some of theirs is Chrome unlike United :confused:

But I still will be looking forward to these! (Prime is still not that good)

Damn those are pretty cool, I gotta say if the generations ones don't start appearing in my local shops soon, I may just bite the bullet and go United!

It has been pretty much confirmed here (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/toy-fair-2011-aftermath-hasbro-mp-rodimus-the-end-of-pcc-and-much-more/20817/) that it won't be.


Info from Greg Lombardo, Senior Director of Global Marketing for the Transformers brand at Hasbro
-Those Wal Mart SKUs for Arcee and Starscream-
Those were meant to be the Prime toys. They are NOT Classics style figures.

I am amazed at how that Wheeljack looks looks like a whole new toy... I had to stare at it for a bit to remember it is using the Tracks mould.

except for the ermm...lousy looking Prime, I already have confirmed orders for these from SG and HK. Getting another 5 Scourges to form a team of 7 Sweeps (2 of them are United ones)... heehee

Call me crazy but I prefer the Hasbro version of Wheeljack over this one. I think they have the better representation of G1 Wheeljack based on the paint apps.

I feel like I am buying far too many of them.

I have order 2 x United Wheeljack and 2 x Hasbro versions.
Same with scorge - and I already have 3 of him.

I think I am buying far too many toys.....

Totally agree. That metallic green does not look good. Much prefer the Hasbro Wheeljack as his paint apps more remind me of the G1 model.
Scourge looks great with the metallic paint but i dont like his hands. It looks like he has red nail polish on.:eek:

Now I'm sad. and have to go buy Delicate Warrior.

Spiffy united pics. I'm regretting a bit sticking with the Hasbro versions, as these guys look Much nicer. And aren't as glaringly different as Henkei was.

Hasbro's Scourge has red fingertips as well.

Hasbro's Scourge has red fingertips as well.

Indeed they do but is it just me or do the United fingers look more pink in colour? - Might be just the camera but I suppose we'll have to wait until someone has both in hand to do comparisons. ;)
(And that person will have 2 more Scourges than what I can find or afford, argh! :p)

Pink fingertips would be more show-accurate.

Way, way prefer the Hasbro releases this time. For this, my wallet is thankful. :)

While the green on the Hasbro version does seem to be more Wheeljack. Compared with there Japanese counterparts Hasbro seem unable to make toys in a nice pure white so I'm going for the United version for all my white generations TFs from now on, cost is the same anyway.

I second the preference for the Japanese release when it comes white toys.

Hopefully Reprolabels will release a sticker sheet to put over the metallic green for a more G1 look but overall it doesn't bother me that much, the 'grayish' white would bother me more.

Apparently United G2 Optimus got a minor mod done:
