Wave 3 Generations Combiner images

I think all the Protectobots look great, easily my favourite combiner set so far. Hopefully they'll make their way here soon!

I'm so torn. I don't care for Defensor at all but seeing how good Hot Spot's robot-mode is really making me reconsider. Not to mention how sweet Rook is.

Not as big a fan of Defensor, Superion is still the best combiner in my eyes.

For me though I would have preferred minor re-moulding of Blades' arms to remove the missiles as I think he should have been more rescue oriented as opposed to hostile, maybe some floaties for water landings or cable winches.

I think his bio will explains why
Blades
Blades can take his alternate form - a chopper - a little to literally. Sure, he carries plenty of firepower. But he'd much rather shred enemies with his rotors, bringing them down with a whirling flurry of copter kung fu.

I see Hotspot, the first thing that pops into my mind;

Damn, Onslaught is going to look awesome

I like some of the team members here, but Hotspot really isn't doing it for me. The robot mode is nice enough, but juts isn't giving me "those" vibes that the other teams do.

Defensor doesn't tickle my fancy either.

Slightly off topic, whats with the current need for all robots to be posed punching the ground??? Is it like some joke robot meme thing now?

I'll be interested to see the Combaticons, I guess I'll probably wait till the Japanese Legends version to see if they Do Onslaught in cartoon blue. Only worry is if Onslaught is a retool of Hotspot how are they going to do Bruticus's trademark chest shield.

Because the dirt deserves to be pummeled.

Same way they've done Defensor's - using that backpack to fold out - wouldn't be surprised if that part is remoulded as a huge pair of cannons/missile launchers

well if the chest shield on defensor is made from the base of the ladder/turret from hotspot i'm guessing it would just be slightly changed/re-tooled or whatever to suit?
