TFW TFCC Generation 2 Ramjet and Animated Cheetor Galleries Now Online

Posted on 04-15-2012 at 08:23 AM by Sol Fury under Conventions

To wrap up our coverage of the 2011 Fun Publications releases for the time being, we have another pair of galleries for you. These two were the Transformers Collector's Club 2011 exclusives - Generation 2 Ramjet and Transformers Animated Cheetor! Animated Cheetor got to feature in the Botcon 2011 comic as the partner to veteran Autobot Sideswipe, so he makes a fun extension to the Botcon 2011 figure set. Ramjet on the other hand sports his awesome Generation 2 colors, as seen in the CGI intro credits to the Generation 2 cartoon (the only new footage in that cartoon... sort of). He makes a nice complement to the Botcon 2010 Generation 2 Redux set.

Click on the links below to check out the galleries of both of these cool figures.

Man I want I want a ramjet, but this set just serves to ask "wtf was Hasbro thinking in G2?"

You must not have been around or remember much of the 80s. There were so many colors...neons especially. The cyberjets...oy. The G2 Ramjet color is subdued compared to those.

i still really dig that Cheetor, such a fun idea to mix in one more Beast Wars figure... very cool to see... and i bought Ramjet, then decided I didn't need/want him since i have the Classics version already... maybe i'll take him to Botcon to try and sell.

Evidently neither were you, G2 happened in the 90's and the Cyberjets colors were tame by G2 standards. Black/red, orange/red, white/red/blue, green camo/blue, gray camo/blue, and black/blue are not very outlandish within the realm of color scemes, there was far worse than those in G1. Now, the late European G1 line is where sh*t got crazy. I think Omega Spreem is the poster child of that, though Circuit personally gets my vote as the worst.

The last run of Action Masters were pretty nuts - I personally think Thundercracker trumps them all for the sheer "what is that" of it though. Turbomaster - the one that looks a bit like a pink Bruticus - deserves a mention for being a pink robot. And looking utterly awesome and evil thanks to the purple bits in there.

You probably are right that AM Thundercracker is moreso the poster-child of awful color schemes than Spreem, but it oddly works better for me than his colors. I think I'm used to villains having more outlandish color schemes, and yeah I actually kind of like Turbomaster despite that odd light plum color, probably for the same reason I find Double Punch palatable, they grounded it with a dark color.

I was, in fact I had a Snowboard that had almost this exact same color scheme. Gotta admit I hated it then too (the colors, the board was pretty kick ass).

I feel bad for all the expansion sports teams that were hatched during that era, lol.

Problem with Cheetor: only one chainsaw.
So, you need to buy two Cheetors to show it really badass with two chainsaws, like in one scene in the comic.

Great gallery! Specially the pictures with other TFA Beast Wars guys and the one with Sideswipe.
