Yeah, I read that too. I passed on the two-pack because I had no need / desire for Magnus so I'm hoping a separate release will eventuate (I heard approx. September '11). Skywarp is the only classics seeker I need.

I can't remember how I got my Skywarp, think I picked it up at a Parra Fair. Magnus I got from trunks a while back as well. I never saw the 2 pack at any store I went to.

I hope for a rerelease as well, would be good considering how much a pain he is to locate, I would buy another one just for kicks.

Re-release is planned but Hasbro is doing some rejigging of the line.

Warpath, Black Shadow, Junkion amongst others will also be released in Japan I believe under the United umbrella.

Will Black Shadow and Junkion be released under Hasbro as well though?

They will be released by Hasbro first (generations) then as united. I have heard they may be changing the name, but given the success of united, I highly doubt it.

Awesome news. Can't wait to get my greedy little hands. Wonder if these new figures will be included with the Collection... :D

Yes they will (as long as Hasbro are good to us).

Speaking of which... gotta finish it! HD and I are working like workhorses on this... gotta get it done!

Cannot wait, I will buy the Hasbro release and the collections release. Can't wait to hear more from you guys on that.

For those in the Illawarra, you may want to add another 6-8 months on top of that, or in the case of Uncle Pete's Toys - 7 additional years at full price... :rolleyes:

Whilst I'm not in any need of a Skywarp, as I bought that Magnus/Skywarp 2 pack when it was on-shelf :cool:, I am glad to hear that they're pushing on with Generations even though it's just a couple of retool/repaints. :)
I hope we hear some news of completely new molds in the not too distant future, but Black Shadow will be an excellent addition to the Decepticon Classicsverse ranks. ;):D

Wave 9 assortment:

1 x Kup
2 x Wheeljack
1 x Warpath
2 x Blackshadow (retooling of thunderwing)
2 x Junkion (retooling of wreckgar)

Ships in Hong Kong in November.
