Generations Voyager Whirl

[SuspectimusPrime]

Possibly Blades? Or Rotorstorm? Maybe not Rotorstorm since IDW has already blown his brain module out, but then has Blades even made an appearance (was he part of the attack on Kimia? Cant remember)?

I would almost prefer if they did Rotorstorm in the DOTM Skyhammer/Botcon Sandstorm mould to retain some consistency. Botcon Spinister, with its garish 90's colours looked awesome on the HftD Tomahawk/DOTM Vortex mould.

Looks cool but disappointing it's not based on the MTMTE design.

Rotorstorm repaint seems unlikely as he's primarily blue too.

Totally agree, but at least we don't have to settle for the Generations Whirl mould anymore

Pics! Looks interesting, and definitely better than The Generations Deluxe. Not sure if I need one though.

Didn't stop them repainting Jazz five times after he died. But as llamatron said, Rotorstorm is pretty much the same colour scheme, so might be unlikely. It would be like repainting Blaster into Bluster.

I hope a third party is able to give him hands. He just wants his hands back.

Going by other clearer pics over at Seibertron now of Whirl and other upcoming toys I think Whirl is misstransformed. Metroplex and Dreadwing are for sure misstransformed in the displays.

Very G1 toy. Is there an eyeball? I can't see one in any of the photos.

I'll buy two.

One for Whirl-y goodness (MtMtE cast is getting more and more complete) and one to hold onto as a potential Rotorstorm if a 3rd party or Shapeways creator makes head/hands/guns for this mold.

Very G1, I Hope they make a Voyager size Roadbuster to go with him.

I'm not actually disappointed that they didn't use the MTMTE design, as the Whirl design for MTMTE has always looked weird and out of place organic to me, sort of like it belonged in Prime or the Movieverse. Although Whirl in his flashback form would have been an ok compromise.

I wonder why his cockpit is hinged? Maybe they want to repaint him as Highbrow?

Looks like a cool thing for those that like the G1 toy. He feels like Cybertron Scrapmetal to me.

[Quickstrike]

I like that a lot! People at Botcon were saying that he's based on his MTMTE design, what's up with that? Can you bend his legs backwards or something?

[Jinto]

Looks interesting but I'm also in the camp of "I wish he looked like IDW Whirl!". I'd get him for that head sculpt to use on a custom Whirl body; and those arms and legs look like they'd be great as parts to re-use on other bots.
