    *squint* That... very much APPEARS to be IDW's current Optimus design.

    Hopefully this is a sign of the direction Generations will take after the're done with the FOC toys. Domestic release of TG Ratbat anyone?

    Makes sense, as they did say that future Generations figures would have pack-in IDW comics. Makes me wonder who all else they'll do, and what's all going on with that gun Optimus is holding. I'd love to see a Voyager Megatron made. While I'm not sure I would get this Optimus, I could use a new Megatron.

    Hmm maybe we'll get that Stealth Body Megatron now? More Dinobots and Aerialbots too maybe?

    I hope that they are, uh, selective with the issues they choose.

    That would be a sweet Prime if made into a figure.

    Bring back the Ultra Class at least, if not the Leader Class! I want large figures again!

    How do we give Griffin of OZ a news credit for this, he was the first to post the link. And this is HUGE NEWS!!!

    It's been a long time since we got official Classics figures and this Prime looks insane.


    P.S. looks like Hasbro is about to trump TW-02 which is Toyworld's teased release of this very figure, IDW Prime.

    Man thats curious. I'd go crazy for it if he looks good with Hegemon, if not I'll hold out hope for Toyworlds.

    I could be wrong, but if my memory is correct, the way they worded it made it sound as though IDW would be making special comics for them to pack-in.

    Oh man...if Generations took a turn and they started pumping out new molds based on comic designs, I would be giving them as much of my monies as possible...

    If that Prime has a Roller, won't it need a trailer to go with it?

    ...in which case, sounds bigger than Voyager to me (?)

    This times a frickin million.

    I haven't really read any of the comics, but looking at images on tfwiki I would shit my pants if this is the direction generations was going after all FOC is done.
