First look at TFA Samurai Prowl and Waspinator!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! By Primus himself!!! There are so many things right with this particular thing here. Let me list them:

1 Wreck-Gar!!!! Nuff said, but I shall say more. He looks great! Perfect! Wouldn't change a thing! Articulated fingers? Yes! So...sniff...beautiful.

2 Sidecar Prowl: This thing looks bad ass! I already have the original, but this dude is awesome! Put me down for one!

3 Waspinator: Not a Bumblebee redeco, he's totally a wasp. Amazing.

4 40 bucks for me to own them all. That fits my budget just nicely!


And for those of you who are wondering, yes, I have changed my pants since seeing this. So awesome!!!

That Leo Prime should look wicked on Cyb Prime.

A whole bunch of definate buys. Atomic Lugnut is the only maybe in there, but I'll probably end up picking him up at some point anyways.

Mostly good stuff here! Not feeling the Univ. Dinobot though. But I'll probably like him more once I see him in person. Leo-Prime is awesome and horrible at the same time (to me at least). But I'm really liking all this info for the most part!

The new head sculpt on Leo Prime is nice. He'll look great with my GF Prime.

.

I'm assuming that since Wasp isn't a car like Bumblebee, that we will see more of his character in Season 3 where he takes on a actually Wasp alt. mode?


.

I want my JANUARY!!!

Ooooooooo

New '09 toys = epic win.

sigh,so much for having money next year.....

Is Prowl's sidecar armor removable? If not, I'm not so sure I still want him. I thought he would be just like the original one but with an attachable sidecar accessory.

nice I may pick Prowl up. Maybe Waspi.

ooohhh lots of cool stuff.

I'm glad i passed on Prowl. I'm definitely getting Samurai Prowl.
by the looks of the alt mode, the side car just breaks apart into armor pieces to put onto Prowl which is pretty cool.

Waspy looks extremely cool. Will look very nice with BW Waspinator.

Wreckgar also looks like a winner.

Leo Prime... I'm torn the head looks really cool. but the color scheme? I was kind of hoping for more white and a very golden mane.

So disappointed with Overload. I was so hoping it be a repaint of Armada Overload, and not another Cybertron Defense Scattorshot.

SO where's Cybertron Defense Red Alert. He's deserving of a Repaint.

its better than i expected!!!!! these bad ass bots are a must get i will kill to get them!!!!

I actually was hoping for a Wasp repaint of BB, along with a cliffy. But that looks like cool too...and its also a spoiler.

Samurai Prowl is total sex. Also Hasbro pulled their finger out with a new mold, i was expecting armor, similar to city commander but it seems the side car is his chest and arms and the bike is everything else. *Clap clap* Hasbro.

How make us an Omega Supreme...or camp latino klingons will kill you in the bum.

Thats 2 more figures I have to fins shelf room for, both are must buy's in my eyes.

The only Animated figure I have is Bumblebee from the Legacy 3-Pack. I've been trying to cut back on my Transformers spending, but I was planning on picking up Prowl. Glad I held off, that's a must buy, and the same goes for Waspy.

Damn, both those look nice. I'm glad that I passed on the first Prowl, but I may still pick it up as it looks quite different compared to this new one. A good question is if the new Prowl will have removable throwing stars or not. Here's some pics I slapped together for a comparison:

Man, Waspinator looks wicked! finally some love for Beast Wars that doesn't come in the form of repaints! He'll look great with Animated Blackarachnia!

And the new Prowl looks all kinds of yummy!

-Wrek-Gar is interesting. Definately a must buy if for nothing else than to have the original standing next to him and have imaginary conversations as to who's 'dumber'. I just feel bad that he looks so much like Weird Al.
-Waspinator is a total win in my book. Seeing that picture made my day.
-Prowl just got even better. The first one had amazing articulation, and this one just looks amazing.
-Atomic Lugnut looks good, but I'd have been more impressed with a bigger figure, befitting of the character.
-Dinobot needs to be seen in person. He looks good, but non-enhanced pictures or actually holding the toy will be the telling point.
-Smokescreen... pass. Sorry, not a fan of another G1 racecar. Please, no lynchmob.
-Leo Prime looks nice, but another one I'll need to see up close.
-Overload... pass. Not a fan of the mold.

It looks as though New Prowl CAN in fact take out his throwing stars, look closely at the hubcaps, you can see the gears, although they are black.


3 months to wait....it's Super Smash Bros Brawl all over again (I didn't say just "Brawl" cuz there's already a guy named that in Transformers and....nevermind.)

I will be picking up smokescreen and dinobot can't wait for those two also will pick up Waspinator and prowl with armor.

I'm actually super disappointed with Wasp. I'd been hoping they'd do the Wasp design from Autoboot camp. I really loved that design, and it had excellent retooling potential.

This just seems like a waste of a mold. As beastformers go, it's not so bad, but I was very much looking forward to an eventual Cybertronian Bumblebee, and I guess there's little chance of that now.

Samurai Prowl looks ridiculous.

Atomic Lugnut is a surprisingly terrific repaint.

I'm glad that Waspinator is gonna be a wasp instead of being a Bumblebee repaint. Samurai Prowl looks awesome, happy that change the mold up a bit (like the front of his motorcycle). Wreck-Gar's alright, looks kinda Playskool-ish in alt. mode. But at least it's much better than the original G1 toy.

So it looks like Prowl's sidecar DOES transform and become his armor. I think he looks fantastic!

I will gladly sell my soul to Beelz for Animated Waspinator! HE LOOKS FOOKING AMAZING!!!

ZZZailor cybertron lovezzz wazzzpinatorzzzz new toy. I wazzz hoping they would redo wazzzpinatorzzz original toy for tranzzzformerzz animated.

So, unless I'm mistaken, Samurai Prowl ISNT just the regular Prowl with extra armour in the sidecar? Meaning I need to buy two damn Prowl toys?

Waspinator is gorgeous, and so is Wreck-Gar.

WOW! A Waspinator that doesn't look like epic fail! I will own that!

That gave me a headache in my whole body.

I'm definitely going to buy Prowl and Waspinator. And here I thought I'd be done with Animated once I got my hands on Ultra Magnus.

Oh joy! I can't wait for these 2. But does Waspy even have any weapons? I may replace his Decepticon symbol with a Predacon one.

Cool. Wasps alt mode looks a little meh but i like em both. There're no classics but they'll do.

Yeah, what's up with that?

I'm not complaining, or anything. I'm totally psyched that Wasp isn't just a green repaint of BB, but I don't remember anything in the show about him taking on a bug (okay... insect) alt mode.

Prowl looks meh, he's not sleek he's just fat here. Was hoping they'd make the armor so that the proportions were still good.

Prowl looks awesome. Even tho I have the first I will more then likely get this one as wee.

Waspinator is a MUST HAVE. They did a great job with this one. Give me some more Beast Wars Animated

Leo Prime is a wait and see. I love the new head sculpt but I will have to see how my wallet is doing before I get him.

Dinobot is another MUST HAVE. Really like the look of him and will go nicely with Cheetor.

As for the other repaint, not really interested in them. Wasn't really a fun of those molds in the first place and these repaints don't do much to change my mind.

Animated continues to show off some amazing designs and I really want Wreck-Gar. I always loved garbage trucks as a kid and now they finally made a TransFormer fifteen years later

Holy crap! They're...they're...BEAUTIFUL! I am stunned. These look amazing. WAspinator looks frickin' sweet. For Prowl, even if they don't release the side car seperatly, It's a win for me. I also saw Wreck-Gar's photos. FLIPPIN' AWESOME! Now if you will exscuse me, I must go change my pants because of all this excitement.

Wreck-gar looks like he is a bit back heavy, seems like they are using the garbage truck forks to keep him balanced.

Having said that, he still looks awesome. Will definitely be getting him, Wasp, Smokescreen and will wait and see more pics for Prowl. I usually try not to get more than one of each character for any one toy line (e.g. only getting leader Bulkhead and not the voyager)... but may have to make an exception for Prowl.

Sh*t ! I saw Leo Prime dissapear in front of me ! I refreshed the page and it was already sold out.



And no hope of getting Wreck Gar.

.

I guess we'll get a repaint of Wasp into Buzzsaw

Interesting, so the bikes are different molds. It looks like the new bike does still have the throwing stars.

No, no... don't eat them. They don't taste good.

I don't like Animated but THAT Prowl looks pretty cool.

I dont like hardly any of the animated figures but damn i like that waspinator

...samuri Prowl will be mine, yes yes...

Waspinator: Insect with a chin.

Prowl: Samurai outfit looks pretty good.

Very cool Prowl and Wasp! definite must have!

Those are so awesome, must get all the animated stuff, I really dislike Leo Prime except that head.

I've been avoiding Animated Prowl and waiting for Samurai Prowl...

...I was totally right.

Damn they look nice!.

The must gets for me are Wreck Gar, Wapinator, Samurai Prowl, Uni Dinobot and Smokescreen.

The rest don't impress me much.

Actually it just struck me!
That Prowl would make a sweet TFA Bludgeon, even with a pretender shell!

It's interesting to see how easy it is for Hasbro to modify TFA Prowl's mold in just a snap. Although the extent of the modification is really unnecessary.

And yet, they can't give Classics Cliffjumper a simple new head.

Very cool toys! Hopefully they will be available in Holland as well.
