    Amazon had photos for Rewind and Stripes two weeks ago (news story), US distributor A.B. Gee had an in-packaging photo for Wheelie (reported by me here), and we saw some small watermarked photos of Rumble (as well as Laserbeak) back in March (news story here).

    Now, courtesy of Amazon (which happens to be my employer, but that has absolutely nothing to do with my finding these listings through the magic of Google-Fu), I can present you the full collection of hi-res photos of Wheelie, Rumble and Ravage:

    Still haven't found Laserbeak.


    No FIRRIB/FIBRIR arguments please!

    Kinda dumb to package Ravage in jet mode when he's never been associated with being a jet before but I suppose they had to make the toy as flat as they can and the 'cassette' mode wouldn't be appealing to kids. Ravage has a better head sculpt than Stripes but the whole toy still looks lame, especially the two back panels that don't do anything.

    Rumble is a must buy as I never did get Takara's Scout tank Rumble. As for FIRRIB vs. FIBRIR, that shouldn't be an argument as Hasbro regularly alternates between both colors, even now.

    Not sure about Wheelie, I thought he was going to be just one color but now he's two different shades of orange. Even though he was different shades before, its more noticeable now.

    Wheelie having two "shades" of orange makes him look a little worse to me, but he is still a get (I assume he can use the slingshot that GDO Wheelie had). Rumble looks OK but the solidness of the red coloring in the forearms/hands looks bad. Ravage looks a lot better with the new head shown and the black/grey balancing out more.

    Getting all of these but I'm renaming Rumble to Frenzy... Just saying, don't get you knickers in a twist.

    I agree, I prefer the Wheelie deco they had at the cons.

    I hope they can go back to the fully orange colour.

    I look forward to seeing what TTs version looks like, i like the mold enough to pay a little extra for premium paint if it's nicer.

    I'm happy with my United Rumble and Frenzy, but this doesn't look bad. Ravage... The one that came with Hound still has no fear of being replaced. Wheelie looks great.

    No argument... Except I don't see where they alternate. Every Hasbro and TT Rumble toy representing G1 Rumble has been red..

    I know no fibrir/firrib arguments, but Hasbro really needs to settle on something a stick with it.
    Regardless, he looks great and can't wait for Frenzy. Ravage... is a maybe...
    But Wheelie... I really wish he'd just have a single orange (or two subtle shades) and not the those two drastically different oranges.

    Seeing it in person at Botcon, I actually didn't hate it. It's not great, but it's not that bad. It just really doesn't photograph well at all.

    That Ravage is just...wow...not very appealing!

    And dark pants Wheelie is a little strange too. Wish he'd come with a slingshot but I suppose I can yank the one off GDO Wheelie too.

    wheelie's colors looked good up until now. they look off now. the colors are flat like someone's kitchen. needs more orange, brighter colors. it's the one i was really looking forward to.
