Generations Warparth was supposed to be repainted into Hardhead. It never happened, same with the US release of the Scourge-into-Ratbat remold.

If the hardhead repaint doesn't happen I don't think it will be a big loss. Hardhead is supposed to be a larger guy so having a chance to get a voyager or leader of him would probably be better.

We need a Chromedome though. He has yet to get a proper toy.

Found windblade

E: windblade's sword stores in her butthole. Why does windblade's sword store in her butthole. They could have put the hole under her chestplate or something

I don't think most people immediately look at Wingblade in jetmode and go 'why does the sword go in the butthole'? Yours might be a unique problem.

Gauntlet (Ironfist) and that IDW Swerve/Gears two-pack are pretty fantastic. I mean brace yourself to pay $30 per toy-that's-somewhere-between-scout-and-deluxe, but I don't think you'll find better bang for your buck in 3P.

A secondary recommendation would be the 2nd release of iGear's Ratchet, which can be had for ~$90 and is wonderful since Hastak is apparently never making a decent goddam Ratchet toy.

Counterpoint!

Most Igear figures, while looking great, feature lovely quality plastic and some sort of catastrophic design flaw. My Igear Prime's arm broke off, the set of six IDA seekers I've bought all have stress marks around their bicep swivels and the Ratchet I bought had something inside its frame crack on the second transformation.

It's safe to say I'm never buying Igear again, and neither should you.

Yep, those arm stress marks on the seekers are terrifying. The one good thing is if they break I think you could rig up a repair with a tiny screw and maybe some superglue, or at least that's what I tell myself.

Rattrap wave just got shipped to Targets in the GTA, but I don't know if its going to saturate in your area.

Saw one for ten bucks. Considered it. Wish he was a Windblade on those pegs.

I'm gonna end up caving and buying those guys just to have a full LL crew.

Opened Generations Dreadwing today. Really digging this guy and makes me want the Megatron even more. And my HST order arrived with Jhiaxus, Windblade, Trailcutter and Thundercracker. I'm closing in on having the whole Generations Deluxe line, just dragging my feet on paying too much for Starscream and Megatron.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AW_k_JQ5nQU sort of a brief, neat combiner wars preview video. Looks better than the earlier prototypes, and maybe Robotkingdom isn't so far off.

I have this guy. He's cool, but super finicky. You have to be super careful when you put the sushi shield in when transforming him, otherwise he springs out into robot mode.

I've seen two Dreadwings, one at Wal-Mart that I bought and another at a Target two hours away. I looked at my shelf last night where I had 9 unopened Transformers so I tore into Windblade and Jhiaxus (SO ORANGE). Probably rip open a few more tonight.

Th new combiners just keep looking better and better. I caught up on RID this week and it looks like the way things are going we may have a reason to see the Optimus version of that Motormaster as a combiner.

How are they going to work Defensor into Combiner Wars though?

Aren't half of the Protectobots on the LL? I know First Aid, Groove and Streetwise are. Dunno about Hot Spot and Blades.

Fake edit: apparently all five Protectobots are on the Lost Light. So I guess each series gets their own combiner?

Alpha Bravo for Superion is going to be the Blades for Defensor. Not all Combiner Wars guys are going to have 5 unique molds some are going to be repainted for later combiners.

Abd they can be worked in however they want because of TOYS.
