    I know I'm late to the party with this one, but I found him on Amazon for $29 and decided to pick him up.

    He's Combat Megatron and I'm really digging him!

    I don’t really like that Megatron mold much, but man I’m gonna be disappointed if we don’t get a version with that head sculpt that’s in a good color scheme.

    The head looks really cool, it’s just too bad it’s in white plastic with black paint, a lot of the details are lost because of the colors.

    I know the Grimlock and Ratchet figures aren't part of Seige but I couldn't resist. Enjoy! : 20190622_015747.jpg 20190622_015733.jpg 20190622_015724.jpg

    That's the thing though, Siege looks perfect with nearly all the previous Generations stuff (minus IDW-esque figures). In this case, WfC Grimlock truly does look good next to Optimus and company.

    A good example of why being 100% faithful isn’t always a good idea.

    Galaxy Optimus Prime is stellar. I’m so surprised how much I’ve enjoyed it.

    I noticed that no Bumblebee has been announced for Siege so far. I find that so strange since he has been so focused on in TF toylines since the 1st Bay movie.

    Is there a reason for this? Story/lore or something else? Or is he just mysteriously absent?

    Bumblebee has never been heavily pushed in chug, he’s only had 5-6 molds in the primary chug size classes (not counting pre thrilling 30 cyberverse legends stuff) since 06

    Wfc deluxe
    Thrilling 30 legends
    Thrilling 30 deluxe
    Thrilling 30 goldfire (counts because new head)

    I’ve tried to stay up on the thread, but maybe I’ve missed it.
    Has anyone commented on the fairly clear and surprisingly (to me at least) larger picture of Wheeljack on Springer’s packaging?
    E94967BE-2E97-4D27-9248-354247F8CC50.jpeg

    This to me screams “we’re getting a figure!”
    Have there been many instances of including a character this recognizable on package art and not getting a figure?

    Thank you for posting that pick. i have been trying to figure out how to make the boombox fanmode but all the pics I found were angled down, making it hard to see how the arms should go. Your pic let me see how to get it done!

    Considering how everything nearly tabs in perfectly I am convinced that the designers meant for this to be a mode but just never gave the instructions. Everything just slides into place too well for it not to be.

    Thanks for bringing that clue/cameo in the box art to our attention!

    I hope we get a Siege Wheeljack.
