Bonus Downloadable Content for the game:
Gamestop will have a G1 Optimus with a weird Megatron handgun and Shockwave arm cannon?
Bestbuy has a G2 Bruticus.
Which will probably translate to EBgames for the G1 stuff and JBHiFi for the G2.
Pre-order dlc doesn't excite me as much as it used to, especially since all of it will become available eventually.
I wanna if we are likely to see a cool collector's edition or something! Waiting, waiting.
Gotta admit, that G2 Bruticus looks pretty nice. And its god to see some good dlc for single player mode. It urked me that all the stuff for WFC was only for MP.
I so want this in toy form.Quote:

I thought we already were :confused: There are some minor differences but the colour scheme seems about 95% right. I doubt they would make another just to resemble the DLC character 100% especially considering we don't appear to be getting the SDCC G1 version :(Quote:

So did I, but then I checked the link. :( So I added "DLC" into topic title. I might add it into the first posting as well.
The regular release Combaticons are indeed brightly coloured like the Gen2 set, but most of the colours are mixed up.Quote:

(plus the common colour of purple on the Gen2 toys - means they used the Gen2 colours on the regular Generations set, but just swapped them around a bit)
oh yeah~ forgot that one important word :pQuote:

Mass-release Vortex looks pretty garish, sure, but he's nothing compared to purple-cloud-camouflage Vortex. Another yellow Swindle? Pfft, boring...
Woohoo!:D
Why is this g1 Optimus roaming around on cybertron in a 1980s truck when all other TFs are in futuristic modes. Surely all the other TFs would laugh at him. It's the equivilent of me turning up to a 2012 party dressed as a neanderthal.
