GEN & BH Official images

[griffin]

Hasbro in America have been sending official images to some fansites of Masterpiece Soundwave (already noted in another news topic), Generations Trailcutter (on card), Scamper, Metroplex's box, and, a Beast Hunters 2-pack (Voyager Optimus Vs Predaking.

Images here at Seibertron don't have watermarks on them (TFW probably thought it was an exclusive to their site, so they watermarked/spoiled their images), so go to this link if you want to save a clean copy.


The BH 2-pack is multi-lingual, so could be a European release. The figures inside are mostly unchanged to their original release, but have paint apps missing (some of the silver on Optimus, some of the black on Predaking).

While on the topic of official images of Generations, it looks like the very delayed Wreckers are coming out after all (this sort of delay usually means cancelled), as noted by some online dealers, including the collector club, who have got some in-packaging images.
The packaging still notes "Fall of Cybertron", which I thought they may have dropped now that they are doing just "Generations", but I guess the packaging templates were already done and waiting for their original April release.

oooh I looove that Soundwave packaging!!... okay so they just got rid of the chest display and the Energon cube, meh. Those can be easily bought for less than $20 at BTS now anyways with two more variant colors too - purple and pink.

Finally Trailcutter!! Hoist can't be too far, yesss!

Hope we get enough supplies here at TRU and not scalped.

I actually wanted a clear display box for Soundwave (like all the other Hasbro release MPs). A closed box is a bit disappointing.

The in hand photos of Impactor makes me actually want him now. The rest are a pass but that's a good likeness (colours aside).

Pretty sure that wave of deluxes aren't being released - might need to import from bts or rk

Yes, wow, Impactor looks really good, those face sculpts are great.

Loving the SW packaging. Although, i'm curious if there's a window underneath SW's artwork; it looks like that extra bit slides off. Poor Buzzsaw... Someone flip those fins up
The dirty thirty packaging and art look great. Might consider leaving these guys sealed, i like them that much
And BH. Moving along...

Maybe that's a sign that the Hasbro Condors are just as stiff with their tailfins.

My Buzzsaw has one fin down because I can feel it will break if I force it.

Looks like with the lengthy delay on the Wrecker wave, the two toys being packed in with the case of 8 (Optimus & Jazz... and I think Shockwave), have had some changes, with at least one being intentional.
Jazz now has a painted visor.

The other differences are minor, with the packaging colours and the plastic colours being slightly darker.

Wreckers, you say? Hurry up already!
Interesting that the 5 repaints are packed alongside their original molds' casemates.
