    Love the Bludgeon head sculpt. Hoping we get a good look at the Mayhem Maximus head soon. Wonder if it'll be based more on the Bludgeon shell/RotF mold.

    Also curious to see what the Onslaught mold actually looks like combined...as there's a difference between official and in-person pics of the shoulder transformation.

    These look great. The mockups are the same as the ones we saw earlier with some details revised to match the toy breakouts more it would seem (like Needlenose having blue elbows instead of purple).

    Also great to get confirmation that the combined form will have a new head.

    Hmm..... I'm excited for this set no doubt but really wish there was more remolding. I suppose the characters that they picked and the head-sculpts that they are going with are actually pretty reasonable but still. Also, I really feel like Bludgeon should come with a sword. Curious if the combiner mode head will take after the more skeletal pretender shell design or the jaw-less IDW style head.


    Making guesses for figure 7, I'm thinking it'll be a Brawl repaint as either Quake or Guzzle. Either one would be awesome.

    These figures look awesome! Probably the best TFSS set to date. Great job guys.

    Despite that I don't really want a new Voyager Bludgeon (especially from that mould), that still looks nice.

    The rest of the figures also seem quite good. Especially Needlenose and Spinister, I would buy just those two if I had to.

    There's a disappointment here though and is Impactor. Deluxe is simply the wrong size for him and this also means that we won't have a proper Voyager Impactor in a while. Shame.

    Any thoughts on who the final Deluxe would be? Seems weird they wouldn't say anything up front...or is that standard for TFCC?

    Well, probably a Wrecker form the info previously that "Impactor is one of the few survivors bla bla". My money is on...Rotorstorm form Alpha Bravo/Blades.

    They kinda set the precedent for trying to do "surprise" figures in the past. Last time it was the Eject recolor of Rewind.


    I'm guessing the 7th will be a Brawl repaint into either Quake (in keeping with the Decepticon double target master theme) or Guzzle (to go along with Impactor)

    I wish Pete or someone would answer why they reversed which molds Needlenose and Windsweeper use. Based on the original toys, Windsweeper should have used Air Raid and Needlenose Skydive. Is it because of the heads?

    Oh, I could see Rotorstorm since that'd be a kind of in-joke with his whole "Wreckers combine" line in LSOTW. Hmm. Still, I've got plenty of Alpha Bravo/Blades molds coming my way already.

    I'm thinking the club will go with a Brawl repaint since Bludgeon is a repaint of the Onslaught mold variation. I think the club will try to be as cool as they can be and use a newer mold rather than give us an 8th or 9th helicopter, especially since we're already getting on in the form of Spinister.

    Still no mention of the price yet?
    Maybe it is really expensive this year and they don't want to spoil the surprise before you log in to buy them.
    :p

    Great, as if I'm not getting enough heat from the fam over CW as is now the sub service is putting out a combiner too? *sigh* Looks like there's finally part of CW I won't be able to get.

    That aside, I think some people are missing the important thing here: that puple and blue Needlenose looks perfect if you pick up 4 and use as Sweeps limbs for Galvatronus. Just saying. Was waiting for a 3rd party company to do it, but this is the next best thing.
