You know, I actually kinda don't like that Magnus. Its kinda boring with the paint aps. And the translucence is and always shall be lame. What I liked about Ultra Magnus was that he was particularly blocky, especially in the chest area. The PRIME aesthetic just doesn't work well for him. Thankfully, I can get FoC UM and be satisfied.

November 2012 for the FE return? Ultra Magnus & I can deal with that.

Alas, I can see the FE prices on eBay dropping now. At least I don't have to fold out 40-50 bucks for Bulkhead

ShadowTracker wrote:does anybody know if dreadwing will be released as a solo wave??

Yeah, he's gonna be in a solo wave; Wave 3.

Looks like Thundertron & Ultra Magnus are in Wave 4 together. I wonder if Skyquake will be in his own solo wave too, or if they'll do another Voyager to accompany him.

We need a Deluxe retool of this motherplucker:

At least we know what Tailgate would look like if he was on Earth. We already knew he shared Cliff's body type.

Ultra Magnus' paint scheme seems dull, but I can't deal with that now. Ultra Magnus must sit on my shelf with his fellow Autobots.

If I don't see Dreadwing this month like they say we will, I will...uhm...keep waiting.

Fallback? Outback continues to be remembered! Thank you, RTS! Thank you!

Anyone getting an Armada Blurr vibe from DE Wheeljack?

DE Knock Out looks ugly as ass to me. I thought DE Bumblebee was gonna be swindle until I saw him closer.

Looks like Hasbro's turning things around a bit. :-?

I'll have total faith in Hasbro reclaimed when I actually see FEs on the shelves in November.

My thoughts on these....

Bulkhead repaint? Pegwarmer.

Tailgate? Pegwarmer. But...I'm still gonna get him and shave/cut off those horns. The only look normal on Cliffjumper.

Skyquake? Should sell okay for a character that was in all of 1 epsiode. Plus he kind of gives me an Acid Storm vibe..

Ultra Magnus? Win. Should sell pretty well, because it's a good mold, plus it's not Prime or Megatron, who are cluttering up the shelves.

Knockout repaint? :SICK:

Ugly as hell.

First Edition Re-releases? Better than RID (though I do like RID Vehicon better), but I already have them all. It'll be good for those who want them.

Dark Energon redecos? :SICK:

Again, ugly...not even one that looks mildly okay to me.

At the risk of sounding like I'm missing something...

Does this mean that FE Optimus and Bulkhead are finally getting REAL mass releases? If that's the case, November's just fine...

still no breakdown. guess i'll have to get the takara version of him, and hopefully reprolabels will do a nice sticker sheet, and a 3rd party hammer will show up because i don't like the micron-gimmick.

i will be getting thundertron, magnus and dreadwing, because they're awesome

i appreciate that hasbro is re-releasing the FE versions, but couldn't they have do so a few months earlier, before i shelled out 85 euros on bulkhead? :HEADHURTS:

Nice! Ultra Magnus is a buy. He still has less white/red detailing than I would like, but he looks cool. And I'm glad they gave him a hammer too. Probably one of the few Powerizer weapons I'll actually display.

FE news is good news. I would like to get a Vehicon. Really glad I was able to find the rest at retail though, but this is great for those who haven't bit the scalper bullet yet.

These Dark Energon guys are intriguing but I'll probably pass on them. The only one that truly catches my eye is that vaguely Skywarp-ish seeker.

Alright, I've got to have Ultra Magnus now. He's just great. I'm passing on the entire Prime line except for him. I don't like the show or the toys enough to spend $14.99 and upward. I'm just going to get what I want for Fall of Cybertron.

Me too!

Man, I'm having a tough time whether to pick TTomy or Hasbro Prime Voyager UMagnus. Maybe I get both. That mold is astonishing gorgeous since Animated UMagnus. Also, the display with the missile incorrectly placed on the shoulder reminded G1 UMagnus so much.

So far got the Cyberverse already, can't wait to get my hand on the Voyager and FOC deluxe. Speaking of the FOC UM, hopefully they repaint his red eyes to blue. They did the same thing to Titanium UM during the 2006 convention.

According to the previous image we saw (in the catalogue scan), the claw can be removed and pegged on its arm. Someone also mentioned the possibility of it pegging onto the back of the figure.

Not sure about the gun, makes me think of this:

It's very cool they're releasing the First Editions. It sucks that they're releasing Terrorcon Cliffjumper instead of the normal one. This one doesn't really help me. And check out the absence of Bumblebee. Hasbro aren't actually learning that he's not the alpha and omega of Transformers are they?

I'll definitely be getting Dreadwing and Skyquake if he gets a release. Magnus is very blue and a tad slim but those massive shoulders make up for it. I'll get him simply for not being an Optimus repaint.

But the elephant still absent from the room is Breakdown. Can't wait for the new podcast to hear from Seibertron as to whether his absence was discussed and whether he will continue to be MIA. :-x

He isn't coming out of Asia, unless you pay Takara for it.

I'm confused, are the FE figures finally gonna show up in North America? If so, that rocks!
:grin:

Is there any kind of comparison list for the FE figures and the RID versions (or whatever the current ones are called)? I need to figure out what figures I need to buy now and which ones that I prefer the FE version.

My recommendations, based on my experience as I own the main 4 FE deluxes

Bumblebee: First Edition, although the RID mold grows on you after a while. It really streamlines his transformation. Recommend the Hot Shot version so you have both.

Arcee: RID. It's the same size in bike mode, shorter in robot mode (which means she scales better), has improved arm articulation, and her backpack is less cumbersome. Only downsides are she only has 1 blade, no waist articulation, and she's the wrong shade of blue. And she can't flash.

Starscream: I don't have the RID, but all the reviews I've heard say they're about equal in accuracy vs. kibble. I'd go for the FE because it's a deluxe and therefore scales better with Voyager Megatron.

Cliffjumper: The RID has a more screen-accurate chest, shoulders, legs, and feet, but it is made entirely of fake parts (the hood, roof, and trunk of the car all fold up on his back), and the arms are pretty bad. The FE has very show-accurate forearms, but the rest is a little disproportioned compared to the show model. HOWEVER, he doesn't cheat. His car bumper really makes his shoulders. His car roof really makes his chest. The grille in his abdomen is still fake, but that's pretty much impossible to do any other way. The sides of his car mode fold up to make his legs, so he has very little backpack, just the car hood and front fender. Plus he has the guns. RID is more accurate, but the FE is a better toy. I gotta go with the FE.

Posted by MINDVVIPE on July 18th, 2012 @ 10:14pm CDT

/\Boo! FE Arcee is the best!

The RID has WAY too much back kibble. The arm constraints aren't bad at all, it just means it doesn't move freely, you need to move a few things around. But hey, look at Bulkhead's calves in the show. They open and close everytime he walks, sooo...
FE Arcees face alone is worth it. She has a sexy lil smirk.

In fairness to the PRiD mold, you can pop the wheel off and use it as an ammo clip, this removing the wheel and making the back kibble rather nice and compact.
That said, I definitely agree with the statement that FE Arcee is much more appealing. PRiD Arcee just looks...flat to me, while the FE has all the translucent bits and different paint apps to make her pop more aesthetically.

But as a bonus, you can stick these on your RID Arcee for more accuracy:

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE my FE Arcee. She's a great toy. But the RID makes particular improvements that win out in my book. I think the AM version is probably the best way to go on that route, if anyone figures out how to get rid of the wing nipples. So I'm not saying FE Arcee is worse. She is GREAT. Even, in some ways, a better toy. But the RID gets the show look down, and that counts for me.

Sorry, it wasn't too clear in the article that was on the main page, and I didn't see it as I skimmed through the replies.

This is awesome news...so glad I've held out on getting RID Prime. I better go pick up the rids I want before they're replaced with all the stuff that's coming out at the same time as the FEs (the irony!).

Yes, but I don't know how to bring them up.

I saw some pics of this on Optibotimus's Twitter way back in February (prior to his posting pics of RID Arcee being driven by X-Men's Cyclops), but his Twitter has since become protected and I can't access it or the pics. #-o

Wonderful! They're finally releasing FE in the US, after many of us blew big bucks importing the darn things. Ah well, better late than never. We may actually have a ghost's chance of finding Vehicons at retail now.

I'm excited about the new Voyagers, despite the inclusion of whack-tech weapons. Dreadwing looks especially good. Magnus is another must-have.

The Deluxes are nice, especially Rumble, but I just know they're going to be murder to find. I don't expect that wave will be any more available than any of the others. Prove me wrong, Hasbro. Please.

Pass on the CV repaints.

Sure, I'll buy the weaponizers, even BB. But I'll be sure to pick up a bottle of Future floor wax on the way home.

Kudos to the provider of these videos. Nice, detailed views. Thanks!
