    Assuming the price stays the same, I see these new Generations as a sign that the worst is over in terms of smaller TFs and that ones designed from now on may be bigger. UM, Sideswipe, and Air Raid are OP, Jazz and Shockwave with new heads AND new weapons. That might be their way of bridging the gap until they can design larger TFs, remembering that TFs take about 2 years or so from start to finish.

    What the heck? The name on the package says "Air Raid", but the bio and tech specs are full-fledgedly Fire Flight's. Seriously Hasbro, why?

    Either way, can't wait for these guys to come out.

    He was originally named Fireflight and he is clearly a Cybertronian Fireflight, but they must've changed his name for kids that didn't pay attention to how he looked in WFC/FOC and want an in-game character.

    Geez, more cardback and less packing bubble? Just shrink the card back and drop the price by a buck or two.

    Figures look really cool.

    I've been wanting a deluxe sized Magnus for a long time. A little sad he's going to be shorter than Wheelie though, LOL!

    Or it could be an error in packaging which may imply an Air Raid figure in the works /Prays

    Still they all look very slick, probably going to get them all including fireflight

    Nice, if RK is getting FoC Deluxe Wave 3 next week, that means BBTS will be on track to get them either that same week or the week after.

    Now where is Voyager Skyquake... seriously getting worried as we haven't heard anything about him yet and we're quickly running out of weeks in November.

    I was already planning on getting Magnus and Airflight, but Kickback looks... pretty awesome. And I'm not an Insecticon fan... maybe he'll be my Suda 51 stand-in Transformer (Suda 51 is a game designer, head of Grasshopper Studios).

    Yeah, that's just... odd.

    And with this, the majority of Sideswipe's backstory is complete.

    Anyone notice the distinct lack of Starscream front and Kickback rear packaging?

    Wasn't he first all red, when still named Fireflight and later Takara showed Air Raid in all black and now this Hasbro figure is a mish mash of both?
