    Seeing these made the original FP Insecticons make sense, I always wondered why they wandered so much from the source, and now I know! These rock, and suit the molds perfectly.
    I really will need a Venom figure as well though :( 

    Feel out of touch, what are the warbugs that people have mentioned?

    That'd be nice, but I'm not holding my breath. I'll probably just end up giving these guys new weapons and giving their guns to the original Insecticons.

    FP's original three Insecticons, remolded to have militaristic vehicle modes.

    Same molds but some remolded stuff so that they transform into Cybertronian type vehicles instead of insects.

    I'm surprised these are a limited run exclusive.

    Having none of the originals, I can't be 100% positive- but it looks to me like they've done a significant amount of remolding parts here. I could be wrong though.

    I'm mildly tempted.

    These are cooler than the Warbug concept. We need venom now.

    In for two. Here's hoping that the 4th member of the team will see an eventual release.

    I was on the fence, and I was going to wait until the Warbugs were released so as not to have too many of the same molds...but after playing Fall of Cybertron, who couldn't use more Insecticons?

    See Hasbro? That's how you sell toys.

    Tempting as all hell but I'm going to pass since I never had a connection to the deluxe Insecticons.
