    Although the seller claims these are "in hand", the images suspiciously look like they're from a Hasbro promo photo session.


    As a matter of fact, wave 3 (Volkswagen Beetle Bumblebee, DOTM Ratchet and Shadow Raider) has just been released in Thailand:

    I agree, those first six photos look very familiar - stock images released earlier in the week?

    Man is it exciting to see SS-18 in the wild! Fantastic!

    Dropkick looks really good, despite not being a legitimate triple-changer like he is supposed to be in the movie.

    That shitty gray on Ratchet makes me irrationally angry.

    Dropkick is surprisingly slender. I predict lots of custom fembots out of him. He looks like he'll be perfectly awesome despite his inaccuracy.

    Glad to see blue Stinger has that nice, pearlescent blue finish from the renders. Finally sold on it again.

    Incoming oversized Dropkick in 3... 2...

    I'm surprised nobody's undersized T30 Springer for some of these guys. A smaller version of him and we could have gotten both a mostly-accurate Dropkick and AoE Drift.

    Y'all get a Whirl vibe from Dropkick? I wonder if we'd ever get a retool out of him.

    Dropkick looks like he could be great for a Rotorstorm mold.

    I remember hearing that people were making digibashes left and right when he was revealed. I think this would work really well as swift from the idw comics.

    Dropkick will be mine! (Arms look a bit funky, but he looks very neat overall.) Always happy to see more copter-bots!

    Want! Is she from one of the Wreckers series? Looks like Roche art.

    I can see Dropkick given a new head and recolored to look like Deathcobra.

    that's exactly my plan for him. colors are basically perfect. add foc whirl's head, rinse, repeat.

    i'd say 07 payload's head, but i have plans for a movie roadbuster using rotf deluxe bludgeon as roadbuster and using both foc heads is good symmetry

    I was thinking the same thing. I wonder if the Generations head would fit on this...

    Hell yeah, a very nice little helicopter Transformer. He's not an ugly shard monster, pretty awesome!
