Looks like Skyquake's been put on hold in Voyager form, with Dreadwing to come out instead. Makes sense what with Skyquake being a now-dead zombie with a mere two appearances and Dreadwing being a current character.
The Odieverse already has a Dreadwing so I'm more after a Skyquake myself, but given he's a straight repaint I'm sure we'll see him sooner or later. Takara version to have a micron who turns into the rotary cannon please.:)

As mentioned in the other thread:
Don't care for Dreadwing, I want Skyquake. If it doesn't happen then it seems that I won't be buying any TF Prime figures toys.

That's fine by me as long as they make one and they don't do an animated Omega on us:rolleyes:... They can make the Skyquake repaint as a zombie, miuch like a variant for CJ.

It would be good to have a successor to my old G1 Skyquake, rest his soul. Plus the green looks tougher and more Decepticon. Dreadwing is very Depth Charge.
I suppose I could always get one of each >.>

I kind of want a non-zombie Skyquake too. The Odieverse could do with a Skyquake.

It would be pretty cool if Takara released a zombie Skyquake in brightly coloured transparent plastic ala Zombie-Jumper. :D

I would also prefer a Non-Zombie Skyquake.
I don't understand the the reasoning behind changing Skyquake for this guy. Skyquake actually appeared in the cartoon!
Oh well..given all the stuff I have been hearing about Hasbro recently, I shouldn't be surprised.

Wish I could watch the damn episode though, stupid US-only Hub site.:mad:

Dreadwing's supposed to be a major character in Season 2. Surprise! They gave him priority over the guy who died in his debut episode.

You tube Odie. That's how I watch em, you just gotta find one though as some will lead you to just teasers, but the full episode ones are usually recorded reversed (m irrored) so that they cant be taken down for copyright reasons (yet)...

I wrongly figured he was just another repaint given the name and Depthcharge's lookalike color scheme. I stopped watching Prime because it got too boring for me so I didn't know about this guy. I guess it does makes sense if this character is prominent in the cartoon but still, not my preference.

It'd be so nice to be able to watch legitimately and it in good quality on the Hub.:(

From the recent Chinese product catalogue, an image of Voyager Dreadwing (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/transformers-prime-voyager-dreadwing-image/24472/), confirming that Skyquake has indeed been renamed.
Not a fan of those over-sized weapons in vehicle mode, as it ruins the vehicle mode, hiding half of it. The gimmicks I can deal with, but they shouldn't have been incorporated into the vehicle modes... as they aren't part of the vehicle mode, nor do they get used in vehicle mode.

How good does that Voyager Dreadwing look! I mean WOW. :eek::cool:
So good to see the transparent cockpit made it in too, looks really slick.
