Not only that, I think having a Headmaster that can sit in the jet and still have articulation makes up for the somewhat lackluster transformation. He also has Headmaster sensor things like the G1 toy, from what I've heard.

I'm not bothered by Arcee's backpack. Look at Arcee in TFTM; a boxy bar into a curvy robot - all that squareness was going to have to kibble-ify somewhere. Even at Voyager level there was gunna be some kibble. I'm just glad we're getting G1 Arcee. Heck I might even grab a second to put on the shelf with G1 Hot Rod & co.

:eek: Really? That would be so frikking cool! MUST GEEEEEET!

So, in IDW land, is Brainstorm still a Headmaster? Is Arcana still alive or has he disappeared? The way the US/UK marvel handled the Headmasters always bugged me a little. I never saw any advangtage to them having the head be a completely separate entity from the start.

No, there's only two Headmasters in IDW (as we know them, plus some in the ancient days): Scorponok and Sunstreaker (former).

Brainstorm looks amazing, can't wait to get my hands on him

I knew it! I knew Hasbro had it in them to do great looking classics style Headmasters.

Are you for real man? No one here would want the new Arcee to be a repaint of Chromia - especially after they just released those photos :confused:

Collectors finally have a G1 Arcee!

Yes I am for real.;)

I for one really dig Powerglide. The massive Generations figure to me was crap, and never really liked the movie release of him because he looked ugly. Now this robot mode looks fantastic like his G1 self.

Good to see that Hasbro is finally placing a bigger focus on the collector market.
They've obviously realized that a lot of dough has been pumped into the 3P market and they want a share of that big piece of pie (that was originally theirs anyway... But you snooze you lose).
A little late but better late than never I guess :p

It's only a matter of time until some third party manufacturer makes a briefcase to go w/ Generations Brainstorm. :D
