    Yep it's a better sculpt overall, I will gladly get it and keep it as the definitive The Fallen toy.

    gotta say, i'm kinda surprised/disappointed... isn't hasbro's panel going on right now- and no coverage or speculation threads? Am I crazy? :crazy:

    I noticed that The Allspark have pictures of Tuner Skids and the new Jolt :

    The Allspark: Transformers News Movie Comics Animated

    And Hailstorm :
    http://www.allspark.com/index.php?s...n=com_gallery&Itemid=4&include=view_photo.php

    I wonder if anyone thought to ask Hasbro reps if the Chest has been fixed so it stays down on Jolt in the robot mode now ?

    I'm also curious note that the Multi-pack ravage is not the same as any of the individually packed one ? :

    http://www.allspark.com/index.php?s...n=com_gallery&Itemid=4&include=view_photo.php

    They appear very to be different to me.

    1st time i've seen this guys vehicle mode too :

    Lastely I hope we can solve the mystery of what that Blue Classics Bumblebee was ?

    Maybe people are just getting burned out on some characters so it seems like there is nothing new. I don't collect the movie figures but it seems like there is always some new toy of characters that have been done to death already.

    Just how many Bumblebee, Prime, Ironhide and Starscream releases does one line of Transformers need?

    Has anyone seen pictures of the three pack: Rodimus, Galvatron, & Cyconlus?

    I figured that it would be Generations line, but I haven't seen it in any coverage of the line so far.

    I really like Hailstorm. I donno, his design and sculpt just seems to give off a lot of unique personality. imo He looks like a character. I love that.

    Part of me wants to pick it up for that reason, but then agian I wasn't a big fan of the original one. I actually really tried to like the original one too, just as a action figure and not as a transformer. But that kind of faded away and I just ended up chucking him into my closet.
    I donno...If they redeco it in Burning Fallen colors or something like that, I might pick one up, if there is nothing else out at the time and I have money burning a hole in my pocket

    I agree that there's two many Bumblebee's - he NEEDS A REST between now and Movie 3 - it's moronic to make so many of them it just devalues the character.

    Hailstrorm looks like a fun toy.

    I like DX Ironhide though as all the previous Movie Ironhide toys were rubbish after all.

    Everything at botcon says autobot alliance. no one knows why. has nothing to do with faction.

    I just hope the blue is just for a prototype... we have yet to get a movie accurate color Fallen, other than the Legends and Robot Replica. I can accept we won't get a Leader Fallen, but at least give us the correct color scheme on the one closest in scale. The blue makes no sense whatsoever.

    My guess is that it's the name of the next subtitle. You know like how Transformers Revenge of the Fallen toy line became Transformers NEST Global Alliance and then Transformers Hunt for the Decepticons.

    I'm really digging The Fallen remold. That's how he's truly supposed to look. I wish they could just get the colours right, though.

    I'm honestly surprised that there weren't any pictures of Elita-1, or her combined form. That would've been a great thing for them to show, to get people hyped for the toy.

    Other than the light blue I like it myself,

    Reminds me of the slight blue tint he had in the movie.

    This would make sense, but they have the Generations line listed as Autobot Alliance as well. See below

    The Generations line is about to go CRAZY!

    In a good way.

    I'm in a state of cold shock over the figures announced today. Truly unbelievable.

    In a good way.
