Official Images of Wave 3 Animated Activators Thundercracker and Patrol Bumblebee

Let the TFA Clones begin!

Thundercracker looks good.

BB looks horrible, but Thundecracker looks nice, I hope this means more activators clones *chough* Ramjet *cough*.

Thundercracker is a must get

I was hoping Patrol Bee would get some last minute changes like Elite Guard Bee did, guess not.

Still, totally buying Thundercracker, now give us a Skywarp (and everybody else) Activator.
DN

I may buy multiple TCs just to repaint him.

Are those Activators big enought to be mixed with the other TFs ? What's the size difference between Voyager Starscream and an Activator?

BB looks beyond horrible. Thundercracker is pretty nice though.

Thundercracker is real nice. I'm gonna pass on Starscream now and wait for him.

Activators are about Scout class or Basic class scale, around 3" tall.

think im starting to think pass on all the pint-sized activators

Note to Hasbro: Yellow does not go with every color, despite how many you try to combine it with.

Let the clone wars begin!

Thundercracker is mine. >

I hope a voyager Thundercracker is made eventually with a more show accurate color scheme.

Although I might still get this little guy.

*Plays the Imperial theme from Star Wars*

Begun, the Clone War has... Well, that's great. Hopefully they'll bring out Skywarp, too.

Aww, sucks. Guess I'll be short of a Thundercracker in my Animated seekers if they do a Voyager Skywarp

Activator TC looks good, but a Voyager would be better. Just fix the legs so they don't pop off all the time.

I'm so getting that Thundercracker! Better colors than Starscream IMO.

I knew it was a wise choice to buy the Activators Starscream (which is a tiny GOD of a figure, IMO) because I had a feeling that line would be where most of the Clones would go.

Bring on the Voyagers at cheaper prices, shivers... I see these being store exclusive repaints!

I'm gonna get the activators JUST to be safe for the Seeker clones.

Though I hope over the next couple years we get them all as Voyagers (and ideally Femscream as a separate mold, possibly a deluxe)

Screw mini me TC let's get some Voyager animated Repaints, STARSCREAM needs his Seeker Army

I'm glad to hear that the Activators Starscream mold is well-received, and there's no doubt that I'll be picking up Thundercracker... but I admit, I'm troubled by the precedent that's being set with this TC figure and the movie Ramjet figure. If Transformers main-lines are going to continue to have several co-existing series aimed at different age groups or featuring different gimmicks (FAB's, Activators, etc., versus the "standard" part of the line), does that mean that collectors are forever doomed to have a mis-matched Seeker set spread across several lines?

I know, I should extrapolate out from two instances like this... but I do wonder if this will become the standard from this point out.

Thundercracker is the only one out of the set i want.

begin the tfa clone wars has

My god does BB look horrible...

Aside from that I do like the looks of Activators Thundercracker, but I'm totally passing on all Activators after seeing the size of them in person at the store the other day. I'll wait for Hasbro to get around to giving us Voyager versions of the SS Clones (and preferably a new mold deluxe for femmescream). We already know that SW is coming in Voyager scale so I'd be willing to wager that the others will be out in that scale eventually... though I'd guess that most of them will be store exclusives.

BB looks like he's wearing an "I Love NY" t-shirt......horrible.

man bb is full of yuck. i hope getting an activators TC doesnt mean we cant get a voyager, this little guy looks nice.

C'mon Ramjet! Woohoo!

Heh, the activators line looks so cute, I've been wanting an excuse to buy one. I'd be happy even if there wasn't a voyager Ramjet if they make him an Activators toy.

Those are some niiice colors on Thundercracker. Nice to see a twist on the ol' scheme.

The original Activators Bumblebee is a good toy to get if you care about size when displaying your toys - although Deluxe Bumblebee is obviously the better toy but he's much larger than the show portrays him when stood next to the other toys.

Not liking this Patrol Bumblebee much.

I am going to get Thundercracker of course. I'm not getting the Starscream one because I already have the Voyager one. As far as clones go... a complete set of Voyager Starscream repaints will be expensive and I can't see the stores wanting to stock six versions of the same toy just in different colors.

seriously....why does hasbro like to use the third seeker to beat us to death with.....

examples:
1.classics...the botcon finasco
2.movie:where the hell is my skywarp!?!?!?!?
and now
3.animated:seriously....if you make a voyager size starscream and skywarp....you need to make a thundercracker to go with them....now if they make sunstorm a voyager and not thundercracker.....i shall take said shitstorm and beat them to death with it

the activator is still nice but i REALLY want the three seekers same size

I wonder if the toy and show character were planned separately?
The seeker repaints are pretty obvious for a starscream toy, they probably planned those right after they decided Starscream was going to be in the line.

Also we know things like Laserbeak and Oil Slick were made without the cartoon team knowing about them before-hand.

The thing that makes me suspect this is that the activator toy doesn't really have the same color layout as the show model. I'm probably looking too much into this though.

Thundercracker is so bought!

i like there size lol i can see SS making mini clones of him self to spy on meg's

i'm hopping we'll see a Sunstorm soon or the fem-seeker.

also i kinda like Patrol Bumblebee.

why couldn't they replace the black hinge part on the first run of the activators bumblebee with the yellow ones that is shown on this version. that would have hide the hinges in the back much better.

Will hope for a larger Cracker figure though it's probably not likely

Thundercracker looks nice!So screw you Starscream Thubdercracker will be mine!

Funny Chins.....

Love the Thundercracker, but I want VOYAGER class Seeker repaints! I want Sunstorm!!

BB fits in well sizewise with the first lot of ex diaclone Tf's!

Thundercracker looks great! I don't care for any of the BB repaints. I'll stick with the original version thank you.

I'm surprised people buy these things when you could get a perfectly good deluxe? Oh well.

Because they're great toys. In the case of Starscream and Bumblebee I find them both to be superior to the deluxe versions. Bigger isn't always better, ya know?

I'm thrilled with these latest Activators. Just yesterday morning I was demanding an Activators Grimlock and now here it is! Looks awesome. I find the Voyager version to be near-perfect, but I'll gladly take another toy of Big G.

Now, I DEMAND an Activators Soundwave! Make it happen, Hasbro.

while i do understand where you're coming from...

[looks at his 6 G1 seekers, 7 WST seekers, 3 Armada seekers, 6 Classics Seekers, soon to be 4 Titanium seekers]

i don't think we're forever doomed.

i hope they put out all the clones at this price point - much easier to pick up and have room for. I don't care that they're not the same TWENTY DOLLAR size.

You're probably right. I guess there have been more completed Seeker sets than uncompleted. And you're right, doing all the Starscream clones at the Activators price point would be very welcome. Of course, who am I kidding, I'd probably cough up for them at the Voyager size, too....
