    I like it, kind of what they did with Skywarp. If they did Waspinator, don't change the bot head. Something about it looks fierce.

    It is very difficult to improve on T30 Waspinator. Honestly it would make more sense just to redeco it for kingdom. (Although that might go against their rules). Didnt they redecos some prime wars stuff for WFC? Univerzze hatezz Waspinatorzz

    So between Transquito, G1 Venom, the 4 waruders, Buzzsaw, and maybe Bw Inferno, there's at least EIGHT repaints/retools possible from this. I expect we'll be seeing this mold a fair bit in the next few years

    I so far like this Waspinator but if BW Inferno gets remolded off of it that would be a slap to the face. If Tigatron is getting his own Voyager figure then Inferno gets his own with opening ass-blaster.

    To be fair I'm not sure if even Waspinator is coming with his gun since the leaked pics show it still attached to the robot mode

    Blame Tigatron! Blame Tigatron!

    It most likely does since it seems to have a piece that separates from the bug bottom.

    Honestly those three do need to be better to go with Siege Soundwave. That being said, they're gonna be absolutely perfect for core Soundwave

    I think wreckgar said the thing about the leader and the other guy is just doing speculation from what he said

    It looks like the thorax splits open and the gun is stored in there. That yellow circle looks like a weapon peg to me.

    Even if that isn't the case, this is a leaked figure, i.e. most likely smuggled out of the factory. The person who absconded with it could have forgotten it or lost it in transit. I remember when Hubcap leaked, the figure only had one of his blasters and part of Brunt's cannon with the reviewer bashing it for re-using a random Brunt piece instead of a second blaster. Then the very next day Hubcap was revealed with two blasters just like every other ER Cliffjumber redeco.

    True, mine never had that issue either, but I also know that the insect legs were also kinda fragile for some folks, so I imagine them being thicker helps them not snap apart

    I like both but BW definitely had a really nice level of intimacy with the characters that you couldn’t get in a G1 type show because of its huge cast.The show had just plain fun, excellent character-centric stories. It’s the Star Trek TNG of Transformers.

    Yeah having a small cast of characters makes for better character moments and tight character writing.

    T30 is amazing, don't get me wrong, I've bought two of them. However, he will have a special place with my MPs while this goes into the Kingdom shelf. To me, the two are not up for comparison as they are meant to be for two totally different styles/lines.
