    Oh good lord.

    I would have been insulted by these as an 8 year old.

    And that Tankor thing? That's an actual Hasbro product? That's not a joke?

    Senator Crosscut, the Shovel-wielding liberator or cities is a sexy beast and I want him!

    Tankor is still....eeeeeeeeeeh. Probably skipping him.

    Tankor looks less like a mean robot and more like some kind of huggable plush. Maybe it's the cute little teddy bear ears.

    And the chances of Hasbro UK actually supplying those figures? Minimal.

    They've had no Generations out since wave 1 of the Thrilling 30.

    Anyone else feeling like the last few leaked generations deluxe waves have been kinda weak ?

    Haven't seen anything I wanna buy since Thundercracker/Hoist wave

    Dying for a new Astrotrain sculpt here, Classics/Henkei is just a terrible mold.

    You say the new molds are weak but say you want a new Astrotrain because the Classics mold is weak? Wouldn't a new Astrotrain also be weak?

    Anyway, good or bad, he's been done. I'd rather see a character that hasn't had a new toy yet than redoing someone who already has.

    Why are Hasbro going so far off model with the battlemasters, if they were little caricatures of the g1 characters would be amazing

    Hasbro UK plans to release two waves of generations, ambitious.

    No, I didn't say the new molds are weak at all. Couldn't possibly comment on the molds as they arent yet released & we havent really seen enuf prelim images.....I was referring to the character selection

    This wave is clearly the weakest so far, Crosscut is the only figure I'll be looking out for. Tankor looks pathetic. Guess it's one of those figures you'd have to had grown up on...Still can't see that thing passing with a Go-bot collection though.
