Not really into Robot heroes, but I may just make an exception for Blitzwing.

Seems theres a Sunstreaker there too.

Beast Wars Heroes are officially the cutest thing ever. ever.

EVER.

Rattrap especially is super adorable! And nice to see some cool often-ignore G1 characters like Blitzwing and Hound getting some attention (that's the kind of G1 homages I like!)

Hound I think is the cutest Robot Heroe to date (take that Ravage!), that expression is priceless!

Cripes, what utter crap. How about some new LEGENDS! Beast Wars Legends would rock.

i have a feeling that, well since galvatron and sunstreaker will be in classics 2.0 and blitzwing (would have been in classics 2.0)is in animated and so I think Hound will be too!

Yeppers, they are some seriously nice looking figures. Bet they come in seprate packs, so you have to buy both! :P

I'm not 100% sold on the Beast Wars toys though, I bet they will look far better when coloured properly. Wonder who the 4th toy will be...

Counter! Legends suck! BW Robot heroes rock! !!!!!!!!!! !!!! !! ! !! ! YAYYYY i will actually look forward to buying these.
Re: New G1 and Beast Wars Robot Heroes (435406)
Posted by Liege Evilmus on November 1st, 2007 @ 5:44pm CDT
All of these will be mine!

Passed on the movie figs, but I like these, RatTrap and Megatron look real weird though, still I like them!

It would be cool if they made these that could transform though. I know they did the PlaySchool thing, but I want these guys, same size, 2 modes...

That would rock!

NICE. No objections from me...in fact, it may just be another excuse to take up more space around my monitor at work. :)

RATTRAP IS AWESOME!

i appologise for my unrestrained use of capital letters i assure you that it wont happen again.

But seriously great to see beast wars getting some love.
Given the recognition in the 10th anniversry line, the new sculpts created from it, blackaracnia in animated and these cute little buggers it makes me hopeful that classics/universe will reimagine some of the beast wars characters (with repaint potential as pats of predaking perhaps)

pretty nice.

Absolutely Awesome

I bought up all the G1 RH the second I saw them.
the movie ones never worked for me but BW RH are AWESOME!
I love the new G1 molds as well.

I hope they continue this line for a long time to come.
They are like mini tributes to our faves, and my girlfriend loves them.

Both my daughter and I approve, though I wonder if this is a prelude to more waves...(like who is the 4th BW, what about Optimus Primal, etc)
Re: New G1 and Beast Wars Robot Heroes (435478)
Posted by Judge Deliberata on November 1st, 2007 @ 6:16pm CDT
The more I look at Galvatron...I do like it, but I'm wondering about the decision to have his arm out sideways like that. Not that poseability is foremost with these little guys, but while he'll look nice when his head's turned to match that direction, there's not much else I can see him doing if it rotates 360 at the shoulder. I think the cannon should have been at more of an angle, or maybe straight forward from his body.

Posted by cellshock on November 1st, 2007 @ 6:16pm CDT
Hehe, my girlfriend is SO addicted to these things. Well, the G1 figures that is. She keeps asking when or if Ironhide will happen - her favorite character :)

I'm happy about all 4 of these new figures, but am VERY pleased to see Hound in there. Talk about an unexpected surprise.

Fingers crossed that we still eventually get Wheeljack, Cyclonus, Ironhide, Ratchet, Prowl and the other 4 Dinobots. I'd kill for a Reflector set, a Constructicon set and the other 2 Insecticons.

Posted by Bass X0 on November 1st, 2007 @ 6:56pm CDT
I wonder if this is one wave with Beast Wars and G1 being sold together or two seperate waves being previewed at the same time.

The fourth Beast Wars toy would be a predacon and most likely an episode one show character.

i'd love to see T-Wrecks, Packrat, Detritus and Alternators Dead End repaints of these (although Sunstreaker's G1 form doesn't quite match up to Alternator Dead End's appearance).

Posted by 1337W422102 on November 1st, 2007 @ 7:08pm CDT
Thank you Raptorjesus! I've been waiting for these! I'll get them all.

Hound's looking a little bloated, but I'll still get him.
Rattrap looks like he's saying 'WHAT did you call me?'
Re: New G1 and Beast Wars Robot Heroes (435591)
Posted by Wes Crayon on November 1st, 2007 @ 7:17pm CDT
Augh! I was thinking I'd probably at least get the Galvatron because it'll be the only G1 Galvatron I'll ever own, but that weird smirk on his face really ruins the figure for me. Looks like he just cut the Energon, blamed it on Cyclonus, and is trying really, really hard not to laugh about it.
Re: New G1 and Beast Wars Robot Heroes (435614)
Posted by Blurrz on November 1st, 2007 @ 7:25pm CDT
Sweet. I really like the Rhinox one. I just hope they end up releasing even more Robot Heroes.. heck an Armada series would rock.

Great selections for the next wave!
Re: New G1 and Beast Wars Robot Heroes (435653)
Posted by Ratking on November 1st, 2007 @ 7:47pm CDT
I think that this bizarre group of G1 Robot Heroes is a hint of things to come in the G1 reissue figure department. I know all those have been reissued by Takara. I can dream. North American release of lava bath Galvatron anyone?
Re: New G1 and Beast Wars Robot Heroes (435728)
Posted by Dclone Soundwave on November 1st, 2007 @ 8:31pm CDT
So Cheetor or Rattrap is gonna packaged w/another Predacon, but who could it be? My hopes are on Tarantulas or Waspinator. I love the G1 characters, it'll be even better though when they're painted!!

These are all great, I'm not even a Beast Wars fan, and I have to own the BW figs! I just hope Hasbro sticks with them like they have with Star Wars and Marvel... Now if we could just get a "GI Joe Heroes" too, I'd be in heaven:)
Re: New G1 and Beast Wars Robot Heroes (435821)
Posted by Icetron on November 1st, 2007 @ 9:36pm CDT
Oh my god! Definitely buying the BW, I might even buy all of them! :D

FAWESOME! Blitzwing, Hound, Sunstreaker and Galvatron FTW!
The Beasties look good too. Can't wait for these and hopefully many, many ,more.

Posted by emeraldbeacon on November 1st, 2007 @ 11:13pm CDT
Too slagging cute. I can even see some repaints... Cheetor to Tigatron, Galvatron gets a Supermetal Finish for the inevitable box set, Sunstreaker to Dead End (hey, it worked for Alternators)...
Re: New G1 and Beast Wars Robot Heroes (435981)
Posted by Bumblebee-otch on November 1st, 2007 @ 11:20pm CDT
can't wait for more robot heroes! i guess this means they are selling well? maybe we will see alternator-robot heroes! :P

They are deformed and don't transform. Definite Pass.

I dont like roboheroes but Blitswing really looks great :-P

Posted by Blozor on November 2nd, 2007 @ 6:37am CDT
These make me wonder why Hasbro ever bothered with the 3" Titanium series. Let's not overlook the fact that stores can't seem to keep these things on the shelves for more than a few days, and most stores still have first wave Titaniums cluttering up the aisles.

Posted by --B-- on November 2nd, 2007 @ 7:30am CDT
Not feeling the Beast Wars ones, didn't get the movie ones either, but I will have all of the G1 guys.

Love Galvy's expression.

Don't forget Inferno. The BW figure look really sharp. I wonder how Megs will look tho because of his arm but I will get them all.

ALL the G1 looks great too. I am really loving the Galvatron. The expression on his face is just great. I like the addition of Hound and Sunstreaker as well. Hopefully we will continue to get more of the obscure TF in future waves.

And let's hope that future waves include MORE BEAST WARS!!! I WANT SILVERBOLT IN WAVE 2 of BW!!!

There better be a frigging primal for bw ones. Man those are all kinds of kick a$$.

Posted by Jaw Crusher on November 2nd, 2007 @ 8:39am CDT
I try to stay out of buying non-transforming TF stuff after the Mega SCFs/Heroes of Cybertron, but Hound, Blitzwing and Sunstreaker I'll probably end up getting just to fill out the gaps I've got in that collection, like I did with 3" Titanium Sideswipe and Smokescreen and RH Mirage, Shockwave, Ravage and Grimlock ('cuz dino mode just looks goofy and the 3" Titanium just doesn't look as good).

Love the Hound, Blitzwing, and Galvatron molds. Like some of you I am not sure if I care fo the BW heroes or not. I thought I heard there was a Jetfire Robot Hero coming out but can't remember where. But defintly will get the G1's
Re: New G1 and Beast Wars Robot Heroes (437041)
Posted by Bass X0 on November 2nd, 2007 @ 12:51pm CDT
sorry briggs, the eighth one will be a predacon.

OK, excuse me for a second...

SQUUUUEEEEEE!!!!!!! A NEW RATTRAP TOY!

OK, now that that's out of my system... :P

I can't wait to see them painted and it's great to see Beast Wars getting some love.
