Generations Wave 9 now out in HK (and US 17/11)

[griffin]

According to Robotkingdom, the next wave of Generations (redecos Skyshadow & Junkheap) are in stock and being shipped out to customers.

Expect to see them in stores in other countries within a month. (not sure about here, but if we do get them they would show up at Kmart)

I really want to see these hit the shelves here in time for Xmas, I just have no faith in it happening though... :(
But!, seeing as today has already started in a massive way (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=7429&page=23) - It's not necessarily impossible. :cool:

repaints again?

[griffin]

Still beats endless Bumblebees & Primes, or even Movie toys... :(

repaints again?

Woo, hope they make their way over here soon, I need some more Junkions!!!

Whatever happened to the rumoured Generations Skywarp carded re-release? We were meant to see something around September :confused:

At least they are decent enough repaints and not random. But yeah, we sure are going through a boring period.

Well Generations wave 2, 3, 4, 6 & 7 all only had two new toys in them (Wave 5 had three and wave 8 had one - again average 2) so this is completely on target.

Brand new figures? Hasbro has hinted at anything but Movie or Prime toys.

I'm sure there'll be a fourth "classics" range but it will probably be a new name/line rather than Wave 10 of Generations.

Siiigh, I guess I can be thankful that Tf Prime is better than the DOTM ones:o Now the question is... are we getting these here or we'll be skipped coz the big retailers wont order for em - Im hoping they do get these as well as TF prime...... junkion army building....:p

[klystron]

Wow. For me, this mold really works better as "skyshadow" than it did as Thunderwing. I never gave Gens ThWg a second thought or look, but I really quite like this recolour. And its got a new head. Bonus. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

(Deluxe is really the wrong size for a character of Thunderwing's stature. I mean, in the comix he was one of those nexus-thing guardians along with Sixshot and Monstuctor. So you'd think he was pretty bad-ass, right? Then you get this dlx size toy... Just didnt sit right with me).

Don't forget that most deluxe toys are as tall (or taller) than Monstructor. Sixshot's the one out of scale. :p

[klystron]

:) Yeah, I just came back to edit my previous post in order to say that I was aware that Gens Thunderwing is approx same size as the G1 pretender version.
And that Monstructor is minuscule.
But you kinda beat me to it.

Sixshot is out of scale with virtually every TF toy ever made! ;)

[Zippo]

I want these NOW .. been such a long time since I have had my TF fix and the money for these has been buring in my savings account asking to be spent.

These two managed to appear in America rather quickly, as they were just sighted (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/generations-sky-shadow-and-junkheap-released-at-us-retail/23223/) yesterday at a TRU store.
