If it's IDW version (where he gets killed by Megatron) I agree. Then he should be SS86 Wreck-Gar retool.
If it's more classic-based he should be a Deluxe since he was same height of Crasher.

I'm hoping Axelgrease is a Scraphook retool. Scraphook mold needs to be utilised more, if I'm being honest here. Instead of another bike I'd like another offroad vehicle, I don't see why Junkions must be restricted to bikes. If not he probably shares parts with Scraphook.

Alternately some have suggested it's Shadow Striker retooled from the Legacy Knockout mold. Which I wouldn't really mind.

 

Yes.

Eh, I don't expect them to follow the classic Gobots scale considering that they're very different from how they appeared in the show already.

And Cy-Kill needs to be able to fight Megatron face to face.

 

Yet he couldn't even stand a chance against Megatron.

But I do agree if he's based on IDW design definitely needs to be Voyager.

 

Cy-Kill as a modulator would be perfect because you can simulate Megatron tearing him apart.

 

Some have speculated that the Voyager Junkion is a new mold bike Junkion done in the style of SS86 Junkions but also a modulator.
Which would be cool, but that would sadly mean Lockdown might be compromised since that speculation means the Lockdown pretool will be a Deluxe.

 

That comic was awful in a lot of ways and that panel perfectly exemplifies that. Is pretty much: "lol Gobots are lame and totally not cool as Transformers, wouldn't it be funny if Megatron humilliated and killed Cy-Kill?".

 

It’s tradition.

 

I find it funny how Starscream was created from the mix of Leader-1 and Cy-Kill's corpses. In fact the comic implies that the GoBots were the ancestor of Transformers.

Also I like how Leader-1 has a skeleton in him.

 

Eh, most of them were cameos and jokes.

Megatron Origin just went too heavyhanded about it and is not much of a surprise considering how awful the writing was.

 

Honestly If it wasn’t for that appearance I probably wouldn’t have know who Cy-Kill was.

 

Bad introduction then.

 

Why haven't we gotten a redeco of Treds from Warpath and Pathfinder from Cosmos?

We had Bug Bite, Road Ranger already so where's Treds and Pathfinder?? I can understand the absence of Small Foot and Bad Boy since they don't have molds for them yet.

 

Ahh, is Shadow Striker Wave 3? I thought it was Beachcomber, Axelgrease & Devcon, but then again Pipeline reveals don’t necessarily have to show the whole of Wave 3. Yes that’s definitely a possibility then, though I also think Shadow Striker could be an extensive remold of the Elita-One / Nightbeat mold

 

Yup, Shadow Striker's part of Wave 3. The pipeline reveals are meant to be mixes of stuff in future waves, Beachcomber and Devcon are part of Wave 4 while Axelgrease is Wave 3.

 

Ahh, that’s it thanks! I’m not familiar with Pipeline reveals from other Hasbro lines, and while I know who’s in Waves 3-4 I hadn’t seen the Wave Breakdowns yet, pretty pleased as that increases the chances of Axelgrease being a new mold now!

 

Well if you wish to see the breakdown for waves 3 & 4, here ya go:

I left out Commander & Titan, they be revealed in April likely alongside Wave 3 don't worry.

 

Quick wish list for future Generations figures, in no particular order. These are the characters and size classes that would really round out my collection in a satisfying way:

Core Class:

G1 Steeljaw
G1 Ramhorn
G1 Buzzsaw
G1 Overkill
G1 Slugfest
Armada Sideways
Energon Arcee
IDW Lug
IDW Nickel
IDW Vos

Deluxe Class:

IDW Rung
IDW Anode
IDW Velocity
IDW Nautica
IDW Kaon
Animated Lockdown
Animated Sentinel Prime
Prime Vehicon

Voyager Class:

G1 Sunstorm
G1 Bitstream
G1 Nacelle
G1 Swoop
BM Obsidian
Animated Slipstream
Animated Soundwave
Prime Airachnid

Leader Class:

IDW Tesarus
IDW Helex
Animated Strika

Commander Class:

Animated Lugnut
Animated Blackout

Titan Class:

G1 Broadside
Armada Tidal Wave

 

Personally I’m on the side of leader Swoop, he can be thinner but he should be tall and have a big wingspan.

 

I kinda like the Dinobots to be scaled closer to the actual dinosaurs they're based on, so I prefer a smaller Swoop. I'm strongly considering just getting the POTP Swoop if the SS86 one is leader class.
