    Not an F-16 is a big negative, and looking (so far) like a made-up alt-mode is deal-killer, when the original had one of the most accurate jet alt-modes of all G1.

    Not much of war. More like Maketoys=Major Leagues, Xtransbots=Minor Leagues

    Excellent. Dreadwind/Darkwing have been near the top of my 3rd-Party MP wishlist lately. Two of my favorites (especially Darkwing), but two that Takara will not be tackling any time in the forseeable future. Also, as late-G1/Japanese G1 characters, they lend themselves much more to Maketoys' style than S1-3 characters. Looking forward to seeing more.

    Even though these are likely to be leader size, I don't mind that for my CHUG collection, since I think jets should be gigantic.

    This will be bought so hard. I wish I never sold off my G1 Darkwing and Dreadwind.

    Now this is the reveal that made me happy. G1 Dreadwind and Darkwing were two of my favourite post-movie Decepticon figures and perhaps even in the top of them all. Excellent robotmodes, excellent jetmodes and fun characters.

    Only thing that will likely sadden me about this, is that they will be the Masterforce characters and thus colors. The red is nice, but I prefer the teal.

    I've wanted Dreadwing ever since I saw the characters in the comics, but never even seen the toys in person so this is high up on my want list. Especially being made by a company that I'm already a fan of. Looking forward to seeing more!

    Very promising if it's like cupola. I had G1 dreadwing, one of my favs, looking fwd to this but hoping the power master figure is somewhat proportional to the head masters figures

    Dreadwind and Darkwing are 2 of my favorite G1 figures, and Buster and Hydra are my holy grail. Do this MP version justice, Maketoys.
