    United Drift, Straxus, Thunderwing and Wipe-Out and Encore Nightstalker say hello.

    Straxus and Drift and Thunderwing and Wipe-Out were in the same waves, so they can do more than one US comic/US toy-only character at a time.

    The one thing that makes me nervous is that Takara doesn't necessarily release all the remolds. They never got Black Shadow and Skullgrin.

    Whoever decided all of the Wreckers needed a consistent orange should get slapped. Would have bought all of these in a heartbeat if they had better decos, but Impactor and Whirl especially just annoy me now.

    Cautiously waiting for Takara to see what they will do with them - if they do anything at all. Still, not looking forward to spending double the amount of money....sigh.

    Personally, I don't like painting figures I have have one of, but I really with he was light blue. I might buy 2 and fix that. I'm also not a fan of the giant gun, but that's just me.

    Love the head design, but that orange is so eye-searing it's almost G2!

    Best, MyClone

    Is there any indication if the new Wrecker-only weapons can be combined, as well?

    I'm hoping that if these figures sell well enough, we get brand new molds of the Wreckers.

    Remember that these toys were apparently inspired by the Robots in Disguise Commandos. For some reason.

    I like the ones we are getting instead.

    Impactor has his spear.
    Twin Twist has twin drills.


    I would like another set of Wreckers toys from these molds at Botcon for a "Wreckers vs. Squadron X" theme.

    Impactor - repaint of Impactor (in comic accurate colors)
    Guzzle - repaint of Brawl (new head)
    Rotorstorm - repaint of Vortex (new head)
    Fisitron - repaint of Swindle (new head)
    Broadside - repaint of Blast Off (new head)
    Macabre - repaint of ROTF Mindwipe

    I'm thankful they did the Wreckers at all.

    that Orange is just aweful, I can get around it on the other wreckers, but it just kills whirl, bought a G2 Vortex to head swap it.

    Plus we might get super accurate colors out of Takara.....maybe.
