    I don't collect the CHUG style figures anymore, but will definitely be picking up Reflector and Jetfire. They look like they can fit in with the MP-scale line

    All of those look so great. I think this might be the wave I'm most looking forward to.

    It's not without nitpicks, I mean I far more annoyed by the lack of antennae on Jetfire's battle mode mask than I have any right to be, the single Reflector's alt mode is flat out bad, and I'm still not the biggest fan of the battle damage on any of the toys but at the core these still look like really solid offerings overall.

    God, WHY did you have to remind me this thing existed? Anyone who complains about any of the toys in recent years obviously doesn't remember the near franchise low of the FoC Generations line. Even some of the Cyberverse toys look better than those.

    And of course Prime Airrachnid.

    That head on Brunt reminds me of beast machines Tankor, it\'s such a unique design that we don\'t get often.

    I wonder how firmly Refraktors could connect in ship mode.

    Only wish a company could do a MP version of Springer that good in all modes. The car even looks clean.

    Jetfire, glade they did away, unless my eyes are deceiving me, the weird tan splatter on the legs. With that said, that blue seems off on the head and not sure what I like there. I'm hoping Takara does their spin on it but either way, this will be my first purchase of a retail product that big and/or not tied to MP in any way, in a really long time. Looking forward to seeing Omega Supreme next.

    Not to over egg it as it were, but I’ve begun to consider every day of my life up until I get that Jetfire figure mere prelude.

    Brunt and Jetfire look amazing. Springer too, although I\'m not as big a fan cause personally I prefer the IDW style of the Generations toy. Red Alert I could care less about, but he still looks good. Personally I\'m more looking forawrd to G2 Sideswipe from that mold. Refraktor is fine too, but I\'m not shelling out for 3 of em\'. Definitely gonna pick some of these boys up.

    Looking at Jetfire\'s alternate mode, it looks like they have taken some cues from Fanstoys...Turnabout is fair play.

    Springer looks really good too!

    Kind of annoyed that they put so much of the "Battle Damage" on painted parts on Springer. Green painted roof and the yellow shoulders. I'm not going to be able to get that off. At least the chest can be cleaned.

    It's interesting how Jetfire went from a combination of toy and toon aesthetics (Classics) to giving a middle finger to Harmony Gold (his T30 toy) to 100% Sunbow looks.

    I'm glad to see him get more love, and I sure hope his Siege figure has a hidden Guardian/Gerwalk mode

    I mean, the original render didn't have the blue bits, but the prototypes shown at WonFest and Toy Fair did.

    Right, I was thinking FoC but typed WFC. Ugh. Another reason I'm sick of acronyms.
