Waspy looks nice, though he'll be slightly outnumbered given we already have Henkei Dinobot and Cheetor to go with Rhinox and (possibly) Rattrap. He needs some Pred buddies *cough* Tarantulas *cough*.

As opposed to toys targeted at kids today being throwbacks to the 80s.![]()

I suppose one thing to consider is that the children who grew up with Transformers in the early to mid 90s (i.e. the "G2 generation") are now in that 20-something age bracket where they're working but unattached in terms of marriage, mortgage etc., so they've got this disposable income that can be exploited. The other thing is that this toy would've been very cheap for Hasbro to develop because it's just a redeco of Megatron. And unlike the BotCon G2 figures, the retooled head was created concurrently with the original Megatron mould. And of course, the toy is being mass produced for the regular retail market.
I really wish Hasbro AU were more reliable.![]()

Hot damn, I love how skids looks!
Like the look on Skids, he's the last of the Diaclone originated car mould that I bought for G1...He gets so little exposure, thank goodness the current IDWverse pulls out characters (such as him) from obscurity and gives em awesomesauce characterization (well sorta). That toy is really packing in the ammo!
Funny how there's not much difference in the look of Waspy from his original BW toy. guess there's little to improve on a n originally nice toy hehehe. Other than make it slimmer so it'll match the CGI look. Wish they'd do that for an updated Blackarachnia figure when they eventually get around to making one... and a Car Arcee. The original looked bulky masculine.
