    Surprisingly, nobody's posted this here yet. But over at the Allspark, someone found a post from ATT from 2 weeks ago of someone who found some new Wal-Mart listings for Generations.

    Hmm, Fallback and Wreck-Gar. We hadn't heard of those before.


    Anybody remember that Transformers 3 video game concept art that was revealed a few months back that most websites (including TFW2005 as I recall) for some reason dismissed as War for Cybertron art despite the heavily movie-based style? There was a character model for a Junkion in there, and as it turned out, the art had nothing to do with War for Cybertron.

    Fallback is the repaint of ROTF Brawn meant to homage Outback, I believe. He was shown at Botcon.

    Mindset is a repaint of Hailstorm. Turbotrack is supposed to be Tracks, but I'm guessing he'll be called 'Turbo' Tracks on the packaging.

    But Deluxe Wreck-Gar? I'm intrigued. :D

    TRA DLX OPTIMUS PRM UPC 6-53569-56572
    TRA DLX BUMBLEBEE UPC 6-53569-57672
    TRA DLX FALLBACK UPC 6-53569-55797
    TRA DLX MINDSET UPC 6-53569-55799

    Wonder what these guys are. Could this be a new Prime and Bumblebee mold? Or repaints of the WFC molds?

    Fallback is an Outback-themed repaint of ROTF Brawn. Mindset is an homage to a super obscure G1 comics characters, and a remold of Hailstorm. Turbo Tracks is Generations Tracks, the "Turbo" is just there for trademark reasons. Same with Special Ops Jazz.

    Edit: Dammit, beaten to it.

    Thats Tracks. He is being called Turbo Tracks, instead of Autobot Tracks.

    I'm not expecting anything, but I'm hoping for a re-release of the "Classics" figure. Like they did for Starscream on Universe.

    My guess would be that the BB and OP seen here are the ones just announced for the Japanese United line. US release first, then United. Would make the most sense since there have been no other mention of these two so far.

    Holy crap. I just realized, I watched the original 1986 TF movie just now, for the first time, and this news is maybe an hour after I finished watching it.

    Weird. :lol

    And if rumors are true, they're releasing a lot of the 1986 movie cast (Kup, Arcee, and now Wreck Gar) If only we could have a Generations Springer that's a REAL Springer, not the two molds .
