After looking at other incarnations of Jackie, the windshield was the only thing to paint. other than his stripes and sponsorship logos he really is just mostly white. His hands and forearms are usually black.

Guess they didn't want to mold his crotch in black, shame really, it helped break up the white really well

Well it hurts 'jack, but helps hound. His mock up - and the cg pic - were so dark, I couldn't tell the green from the black.

Likewise, I think this picture is just too bright in the center. The other three deluxes look better since they're colored and to the sides, but Wheeljack (and Fixit's face) seem to have taken the entire camera flash at point-blank range.
WJ's white should look better in normal lighting, as well as the silver on his face. (The black around his eyes is also a nice detail.) That said, more black parts like the earlier renders would have helped a lot.

That remolding done to look like a jeep makes it so much cooler. Makes him a little less Earth like too and more fitting for a cybertron role, so he'll make a nice addition to the MTMTE shelf

You can't, you're doomed forever!
Seriously though, I have no idea, maybe go into your account and edit your order? If you can't do that, then maybe email them.

I might end up grabbing Wheeljack and Hound. Not sure about Trailbreaker. Definitely not Smokescreen.
Also, these guys are all part of Sky Reign along with Wreck-Gar. Has anyone seen how Wreck-Gar connects to the others?
Posted by Cobotron on October 24th, 2015 @ 10:31am CDT
Not that I'm aware of, but he has that 5mm peg coming off one of his legs that I'm still not sure why it's there. Makes me wonder if there is another mode we don't know about yet.RiddlerJ wrote:Has anyone seen how Wreck-Gar connects to the others?

If you fold the front wheel section down and reconnect his arms the way you would for vehicle mode, you could approximate a jet pack - which could then be attached somehow to someone.

And after the legal fiasco that was MP Exhaust, I doubt that character will ever be touched with a ten foot poll by Hasbro.
IIRC, Wreck-Gar either attaches to Sky Reign's back or is held by Sky Reign as some sort of gun.RiddlerJ wrote:Also, these guys are all part of Sky Reign along with Wreck-Gar. Has anyone seen how Wreck-Gar connects to the others?

Wish they would have made a different mold to go as a 6th member. would make the combiner better having a new legends guy. And given that Sky Lynx is in this, it would have suited him so much better to have a more appropriate legends, like idk someone else with a big ego and a small size

There's always Botcon.

Buzzsaw does seem to be the odd bot out, but the packaging has the CW logo on it. Hasbro is a crazy bunch aren't they? It kinda seems that the toy lines and fiction are just going to bleed into each other.Agamemnon wrote:Drift082111 wrote:Just saw BBTS has new CW preorders up.

Those individual pre-orders went fast. That four pack is one of the first times I wouldn't mind picking them all up at once. I'm probably going wait to pick them up at retail. My area is currently getting flooded with the wave 3 & 4, but I have still yet to see a Viper in the wild.
I am excited for some new mold blood. Brawl and mini Shocks are buy on site; as is the heavy retool Swindle. I still haven't made up my mind on Buzzsaw. Is his third mode a fork lift / pallet jack crossover? I get a "I work in a warehouse" vibe from that mode.

They announced him at botcon this year, he is joining this wave - it wasn't a mistake, just a titan wars teaser. In fact it was his existence that corroborated the leaked blaster images as being legit.

1)This guys source was dead on about certain details of Devastator.
2)The source said it would be revealed at the Nuremberg Toy Fair, the same place we got our first look at Devastator.
Apparently due to the Blaster leak Hasbro decided to reveal Titan's Return first since people were interested.

Someone on here said that predaking would be released next year - his friend works at hasbro. But he said it would be titan class, so whatever - at the very least, it seems like predaking is coming out next year
But I can't imagine that hasbro would bother making a bunch of molds that they cant re-use - they could do a lio-convoy combiner with it though - at the very end of the line, unless they really wanted to end cw on a good note.

My thinking is they know the fans are tired of the same 8 or so molds being used over and over and wanna give us a combiner, that can be sold at a premium price, to keep us happy. I mean Titan Wars is going to be even MORE repaints I think.

I wouldn't be surprised, but soundwave and astrotrain seem cooler already than most of the cw repaints were.

BW megatron and o/p from skullcruncher and mindwipe, and either wolfang or cybertron snarl from weirdwolf (I mean they aren't out yet, but were one goes, the others usually follow)
Plus we know all of the cassettes are gonna be repainted to cybertron and back...

Sorry to burst the beast wars bubble but I highly doubt they would go that route. Out of the cassettes all I see is 1 rewind repaint and 1 remold with a repaint, lazerbeak from Buzzsaw and ravage from stripes.
