Love everything generations, and so much more to come this year
Very cool. Loving the Generations figures that are coming out.
That is a really nice figure, and I might need to hunt down the Classics Darkwing to go with him.
This head, as well as being a stealth bomber is based on the G2 Dreadwing figure not G1. http://www.tfu.info/1994/Decepticon/.../robotmode.jpgQuote:

But (and I haven't read it yet, just seen the preview) didn't Shockwave kill him in a recent comic? Bear in mind I'm not sure so I hope I'm not putting a spoiler in here.
I always regret not picking up the Universe Dreadwind & Darkwing :(, but at the time funds were limited so was not buying recolours. They are on my wishlist along with Drag Strip & Overkill
I prefer it to using this mold for Megatron. Megs is to small.
I hope it comes out in garish G2 colours.
*looks at FOC Cambaticons*
I see that it will come out in garish colours
Sadly not in Australia though... :(Quote:

Love my Generations line:D Great to feel the collector love again.
And if that were an issue to me, I wouldn't have Prime Arcee as my classics Chromia.;)Quote:

I would have preferred a Classics Dreadwind to a Dreadwing, but he still looks decent.
Wasn't that just a G2 rename, just because/trademark reasons not a seperate character?Quote:

(And Classics Darkwing would be about three times his size.) :)Quote:

Wasn't it Smokejumper - not Smokescreen?Quote:

Hasbro are really spoiling us this year. I'm smitten with this mold for some reason... I really hope it comes out in a nice green and blue scheme.
Looking at Dreadwing's face I imagine he has a more brutish version of Jamie Oliver's accent. >.>
It has to dude, it simply HAS to! :eek:Quote:
