    Yeah, I'm in for all of these. They look great. And while I DO miss getting null-rays or original style weapons, getting actual in-game weapons is awesome. Bravo for that.

    That's really cool how Magnus' sword snaps over the Prime rifle to create an even larger sword.

    Magnus is a buy, especially if someone is doing upgrade parts for him.

    Starscream looks... okay. I love the geared combined weapon. I may have to steal that for someone else.

    Sideswipe is still cool, and I need him for my RID display (the only GHUG version of that mold that I have is Red Alert).

    Strafe is just crazy awesome with those swords and the gold plastic... but what's with the upside-down symbol? That's annoying.

    Kickback was my first TF, and he has a combining weapon, so I'm sold.

    ... damn it, I may have to order a case at this rate.

    Now *this* is how you do a weapons gimmick.

    Screw MechTech, they need to incorporate something like this into the Prime Voyagers ASAP.

    I just got even more excited about these. Seeing great looking weapons is a huge plus after a lot of unimpressive weapons in the prime line. I can't wait for my pre-order to come in. :)

    Magnus is kinda Bland, glad I'm getting the united, Starscream is pure sexy and I hope we get Thundercracker/Skywarp from him.

    I'll get shiny JP Magnus.

    Want Fireflight/Air Raid whatever and maybe Sideswipe if he's on sale. I hate that C. Jazz mold but his gun does look awesome..

    Yeah, I'm liking that Starscream mold less and less.

    The torso and limb connecting just seems off.

    Not to mention the head looks like it was meant for a Voyager class mold.

    Sad really.

    Infra Magnus is really cool, but the plastic looks a bit cheap in the pictures. But I'm going to get the Takara version anyway. Much better paint apps. A bit expensive, but that's worth it.

    What I really like most are the weapons of these guys. If they were cheaper, I would have gotten some of these just because of their weapons. Finally they have bigger guns again, like they used to have when I was a kid and my favourite Transformers toys were out. They had all these big ass weapons.

    Starscream and Ultra Magnus look more grumpy in hand. I really dont like the open space that is very visible in Starscream's jet mode

    I'm surprised Hasbro hasn't been pushing a pithy marketing name for this wave's multipart-interconnective-weapon... deal.

    I'm really thinking about maybe giving the sword from Ultra Magnus to my WFC Prime... :D

    Oh, good, and here I was worried they might make some deluxe figures next year that weren't tiny instead just giving them comically over-sized weapons.

    Seriously, with that set of mostly repaints, and the wave following likely consisting of Autobot Bruticus, I see only one figure of the ten that I'll actually get, Kickback. For me that's way lower than any other 2 waves of Generations since they started it.

    Maybe I'll pick up the Starscream mold sometime, if I see it marked down or if one of the inevitable repaints somehow looks better. Wow me, Skywarp!

    That Magnus looks so incredibly bland. I guess I'll stick with the Takara preorder after all.

    I guess the only Hasbro version of this bunch I'll be getting is Starscream.
