It has been mentioned a couple of times nowkoolkollectibleskhai wrote:Hey, is this additional step in the leg transformation of Dragstrip common knowledge? I had no idea myself, but was made aware by someone commenting on my photo in another thread!
To get Dragstrip to sit at the same height in leg mode as the Aerialbots, the rear wing of the alt mode actually swings up to reveal another hole to plug the foot piece into! Here's a pic I took of the difference. I'm sure this wasnt in the instruction book lol!!

Hell, by the time the "free" shipping gets my package here in about 6-8 days, they will be on the shelves.

I wouldn't loose all hope. Since the Fan Built Combiner is coming out in 2016 it isn't unreasonable to assume we'll continue to get combiners past Hasbro's use of the Combiner Wars label. Now that Hasbro has established a new combining system and they've proven their popularity I wouldn't be surprised if we got at least one new set every year for a while.

That would be really early, considering online stores only have pre-orders up.

How do we know that this new combiner system is popular? Are there any sales figures in yet and does Hasbro share that info? I would say we'd have to wait for the first quarter 2015 stock report for any dom had their pre-orders pushed back to February and BBTS has theirs listed for March.
Well, since Generations Thrilling 30 lasted from 2013 to 2014, maybe Generations Combiner Wars could last from this year into next year as well. The fan combiner could possibly come in its final or second-to-final wave.ZeroWolf wrote:I completely forgot about the fan made combiner. Unless next year they'll do combiner wars 2: This Time It's Personal. Won't the fan made toys stick out with whatever theme they plan to do?

I am actually excited about Menasor now, although i still think he is a bit too wide.
I hope Hasbro will give us the original members soon though, i don't dig Off-Road or Alpha Bravo.
I dont know if they are better, but they do seem to offer more variance between the characters. The aerialbots all suffer from being very similar transformers, but that was always the case.

I can pick up all but the Voyager class figures by hitting just a few stores within a 20 mile radius of my home. I've looked at all of the Legend and Deluxe figures in hand and I've been very impressed by what I've seen although Windcharger was underwhelming compared to his Reveal the Shield counterpart. I am, however, enjoying the hell out of my Bombshell figure and looking forward to picking up Thundercracker next. He's going to make a cool chest piece on any of the Combiner leaders in their combined form. This whole line is showing a lot of promise compared to previous lines but I'm still very disappointed that it's also going to be a worse haven for repaints than previous lines have been. That part truly sucks and it's for that aspect alone that I won't be buying a lot of these figures.

The fact that the "in stocks" sold out over night on Amazon is a good indication.
