    REALLY glad that Skids isn't a retool.

    It's funny, I remember everyone suggesting a Trailbreaker retooling into Skids.

    Skids looks amazing (gonna have to give his large rifle to United Jazz though). Waspinator, he came out of left field though. Updated Beast Wars stuff in this day and age, nice.

    Skids is the only thing I'm even remotely interested in.

    Waspinator looks awesome though. He definitely looks like the best TF in this wave, but I sold all my original Beast Wars figures...and I have no intention of starting a new BW collection.

    Lol. Between this and the Cosmos thread, you must of stroked-out by now. Can't imagine this much outrage over a toy. Your response is that of a two-year-old who learned to write. I mean you can freely say and think what you want, but as many others pointed out, the original Skids wasn't a mini-van. So your trying to argue inaccurate facts to justify your disappointment and anger.

    So for the benefit of anyone not at Botcon, what was announced but has no pictures yet? DLX Armada Starscream, Voyager Whirl, FOC Skywarp? Anything else?

    Dear Hasbro, Thanks for not turning the 30th anniversary line into a crappy G1 Sunbow remake line.

    Actually he's IDW Skids, not Classics Jolt. *Incredibly happy face!*

    Fantastic Beast Wars figures!!! Dissapointing Skids. If he's not a van, there's no point.

    Goldfire, bug, whatever, is the only one I'm leaning towards not buying. The rest are bought!
    Waspinator is the clear winner here!

    The original Dreadwing was a big triple changer that went from robot to stealth bomber to missile tank thing. And he had a cool partner that transformed too. Now all these years later when we should be getting a kick ass update we get a dinky little deluxe downgrade.

    Oh! But wait! We got a voyager repaint of Mindwipe & Skystalker a while back. So this POS is like a double downgrade. Yeah, I'm really excited over this! Maybe next time they'll downgrade him even more to a legend/legion/microverse piece of crap?

    Fortunately, thanks to the comics, Waspinator is now a G1 Insecticon.

    Now let's see IDW get Rhinox in as well...
