what do you guys think they got to make more figures from the game like Soundwave and the many others do you think they will? i hope they will this is a great change for design aspect and seeing some of the characters i can just picture so many repaints i could do for them
While I'd love to see more than the four we're getting (Soundwave is the fourth), I don't think we'll see many more, if any more for that matter (beyond repaints that is). Starscream is likely, as Hasbro did mention that there were more Seekers on the way. The pre-order exclusive characters have even less of a chance at being made, imo. Although I would absolutely love to see Shockwave and Jazz made. Who knows, BBTS might have some more reveals for us tomorrow.
I think the most we could see is Ratchet and Starscream. I would love to see more figures, but I'm trying not to get my hopes up.
any character that shows up in the WFC portion of generations will likely not appear in the G1-inspired version of Generations. So I am strongly against a WFC jazz figure. but I don't see hasbro making a figure of a store exclusive pre-order incentive.
I wouldn't be opposed to Generations figures based on their designs at least. Like say an Earth Styled version of WFC Jazz.
If everyone buys the crap out of the four figures being released, Hasbro make take a step back and ad more figures. Actually, I think that's were they're hoping happens.
Yeah, obviously they hope the toys sell and everyone buys them. Realistically, if they are popular enough to make Hasbro consider more WFC figures, it takes about a year to get from design all the way through production, and the line will probably be finished by then. We're only going to get the molds that have already been designed, and the only way they can extend the WFC portion of the line is through repaints. Of course there may be a few more for 2012, or whenever classics resumes. Chances are there'll also be a new game by then, so that may reduce the chances of additional WFC molds.
If the game does good...theres a huge following and is accepted....and people buy up the 4 new characters toys... have a strong strong feeling we will start seeing allot more CYBERTRON mode character figures!!! i have a feeling all of this will happen!
lol Do we really want to know what those "Unspeakable" things would be? I'm not sure, i have to say i'm curious ..... lol
WFC fembots all the way. And preorder characters arent' exempt. They're just pre made custom bots for MP. So I'd think they'd still be available in the campaigns.
If War for Cybertron Starscream gets a toy, it's only inevitable that Skywarp and Thundercracker will also be made.
Again, I hope not, because anything that gets a WFC figure won't get a normal classic style figure. classic thundercracker should take priority.
After seeing Silverbolt's design, I would love to see him made as a toy. Though, like most of the other designs, I don't imagine he'll get made. As for Starscream, and his potential repaints, eh, as long as a Skywarp repaint would be made I'd be ok. I've already got a Classics Thundercracker, so I wouldn't be bothered if they didn't release release one in Generations. I also wouldn't be all that interested in a WfC themed Thundercracker either.
Why would that reduce the chance for more figs? If a second game comes out, toys for them would be well on the radar.
I'd be pretty happy with any of the toys really, for obvious reasons i'd really like a Silverbolt figure but who knows if that will happen. The Bumblebee looks pretty sweet although the Optimus' plastic doesn't really look that good, i can't tell if it's the paint job or the plastic itself though.
