    I'm thinking so, but I need others opinions.

    So I went to TRU, and saw DoTM Roadbuster, DoTM Topspin, and RoTF Ice Cream twins. So I bought them. But at the same time, they had Generations Wheeljack, Warpath, and Thundercracker.

    So what I'm asking is: Did I make a mistake passing up the Generations figures?

    Depends on your preference really. I'd say no if you prefer the ones you have :) .

    Actually no, the biggest mistake was actually producing a supreme sized house cat

    yeah you goofed. LOL. I don't know about your city, but all the DOTM movie toys are huge shelf warmers around here. Generations don't last on the pegs long - and rightly so. They're just better toys.

    The only mistake your making that I can see is second guessing yourself. What figures are the best is a PERSONAL preference. So if you're happy with what you got, why question it at all?

    They're all good in their own rights. Do what you need to do, none of them are rare.

    The only ones really worth getting there are Wheeljack, Warpath, and Topspin.

    You didn't make any mistakes exept for asking others in this thread what their opinions were.

    Your money, your choice. nothing else matters other than what you think.

    Probably could have picked up the Ice Cream Truck at TJMaxx for less money.

    i would have got the ice cream twins wheeljack and warpath. but you need to buy what you like. you could always go back and get the ones you left behind. its not a mistake unless you think it is.

    It's obviously your money, but I would have went with the Generations. I'm a movie figure fan, but those figures just don't really appeal to me. Especially the fucking twins. But the good thing is I'm sure in a few months that Generations wave will be shelfwarming!
