Some great news in there! Loving the Skullgrin news among others.
New BW huh. I'll believe it when I see it.
Yeah, it hasn't been announced but since Dinobot won the Hall of fame thing then the chances have certainly increased. The next logical choice for a toy would be Rhinox or Rattrap so I am hopeful but not fully convinced that it will happen.Quote:

Even though I am one of those G1 fans Verno :p, I would really love to see an MP Dinobot :D, as unlikely as it is.Quote:

they would make fantastic toys and also a set of all the 'in-game' weapons.
i noticed optimus' rifle isnt even in the game, yet they dont even give him the energon axe. hopefully a leader class toy will remedy this.
A Rattrap or Rhinox toy would be awesome; we haven't seen those two since Beast Machines, and their toys weren't really definitive versions of the characters.Quote:

In the excitement, there's been some conflicting or unclear reports.
Generations is Deluxe only, so Legends class Prime, Starscream and Megatron are all in the Transformers 2010/HFTD line right?
And the same goes for Scout class Windcharger?
I too have been wondering about that. Maybe they will still continue to do other class sizes.Quote:

I think they shouldn't have restricted Generations to one size class (probably necessary to not look like flooding of assortments to the retailers), because now there is no plausable reason for a separate deluxe line.
I'd imagine the Generations name will just quietly drop from use after a few months is all.
I think the Generations line exists because Hasbro wants the Generations toys (being G1/G2) to be distinct from the movie and neo-movie figures in the TF2010/HFTD line. As for why Generations doesn't have other size classes, I think it's because Hasbro will only do a handful of G1/G2-based figures in these other size classes, while Movie and neo-movie characters (like Breacher, Hubcap, Highbrow and Lugnut) will get the lion's share of these classes.Quote:

All great news :D
I'm mostly looking forward to the Generations figures but may be swayed into the new line with the look of Highbrow and Terradive :p
Legends G1 Megatron is a big surprise, I wonder if he will be a simplified version of the WST version (unlikely) or a new mold with G1 homages (more likely)?
I hope Jazz and Tracks will have 'vette Stingray and 935 homages
Hate to repeat what others have been saying, but DAMN.. im so excited.
Going to be buying alot.
Cant even wait for pics of Jazz... feed my current classics addiction.
So.... when will the rest of us get to see pics? :o
SDCC possibly, which is in late July. Though it sounds like a lot of what people saw was control art, not prototypes, so it might be a long time.
I just want more detailed explanations of what was seen. I haven't been able to find that informationQuote:

Is Generations not specifically a homage line using Classics styling whereas the yellow box is like movie repaints or new movie style molds?
Considering G1 Legends class, G1 looking Scout Windcharger and Classics G1 looking Grapple is in there?
You'd have to read the response Archer gave them.
So it's all a cunning plan then
Is it as cunning as a fox who's just been appointed Professor of Cunning at Oxford University?:pQuote:
