    Yeah, Wreckgar confirms fucking STRAXUS and no one else is losing their mind?

    If it's a wavemate with galvatron re-pack, it can't be a retool, right? That'd be crazy right? NEW MOLD MAYBE?

    Yeah, that just hit me too. Good call, bud! Straxus may be old news in some respects but dang, it's Straxus! I wouldn't be surprised as to retool or new mold. Didn't CW Megs and Armada Megs hit in the same wave or am I losing my memory?

    Project Jam is the other big thing to me. Blaster is one of my big wants, so I'm hoping that it's separate releases not just one hard to get exclusive. I would love to see him with Rewind, Eject, Steeljaw, and though it will not happen, Buzzsaw. I really am getting a complex about Buzzsaw for some reason..

    I'm confused about the Insecticons, have we heard anything credible about them? So much has been said in the last week or so it's hard to keep track.
    Kind of what I figured for Project Jam (not specifically a Blaster retool, but that it'd be music-related) since Space Jam just seemed a bit too out-of-left-field.
    Blitzwing will have to be pretty good to get me to replace my KO Legends one, but if it's still on the larger side (like, bigger than Astrotrain, or at least as big as Megatron), better articulated (which I have no doubt it will be), the jet mode looks just as great, and the tank mode is at all improved I'll definitely be tempted. Crossing my fingers for good wrist articulation so he can hold his sword properly but I'm not expecting more than a typical wrist swivel.
    Darkmount is excellent news! I'm curious to see how much retooling he'll have from Galvatron.

    Yeah, Combiner Wars leaders were an odd duck though... with the exception of the two Megatrons and Ultra Magnus we had three straight repaints of the Seeker retool from T30 Jetfire.

    now then, Blitzwing excites me, as do other things, however i wont be replacing TR, because he will become my Devastation blitzwing as he was my fav bossfight
    im very excited to finish the 84 to 86 crew, as it means i can finally dip out of collecting and focus on other things that actually make me happy, or are necessary

    yo now the people can rip in a half their Siege Optimus Prime, since the figure has some QC issues on that part.

    I'm still running with the assumption that Buzzsaw is just going to be a future SG Laserbeak

    As for Wreckgar's recent news...

    Blaster retool to Project Jam... didn't even realize that Blaster had been confirmed so this is interesting news.
    Nice to hear that everyone that guessed Wreckgar's hint last month was a Straxus retool from Galvatron was correct. Personally really loving this one. We need a new Straxus.
    Blitzwing's confirmation is excellent and all things considered, I'm glad to hear he was bumped up to a leader to give more room for his triple-changing gimmick (I would assume that's why Hasbro would do that at least).

    SG Laserbeak has been previously been done in Armada Laserbeak or G1 Ramhorn colours, not Buzzsaw. Buzzsaw was also in Steeljaw colours.

    Same, I want to troop build like I did the original Generations Junkions. I am hoping that some 3P groups will make upgrade kits to make even more Junkions. ( recalling the beautiful sets MAIDEN JAPAN used to make)

    Really REALLY hope Blitzwing gets recolored into an Overcharge, I'm a little worried he won't though cause leaders don't seem to get Gen Selects figures often (so far only shockwave and the all but confirmed Galvatron). I know I would personally buy two for my Quintesson shelf.

    I'm also really hoping that "Darkmount"/Straxus (I know why they can't use Straxus, but he is still Straxus) is black instead of blue, it just looks more badass. I would also like for him to have a more marvel comic inspired head with the simple detail.
