I would have bet everything on Shadow Panther being a selects.

Nice! Presumably Slammer will be a Warpath repaint.
That's rather a lot at once there. 15 Deluxes?! Must be pretty much the whole line.
With this, netflix and studio series 86, next year looks very busy.
Not going to open my Siege Magnus then. Never got round to it, but he's straight on the chuckout pile.

I've only just got CW Huffer, and yes it's not good but it was hard to find

CW Huffer didn't get a UK release. And it was poor, he and Pipes were high on the redo list.

Agreed it really does, and the list so far is looking really good. But hey man, I've got five kids to feed! (Well two actually ,but they eat a lot)

If there is a Kingdom one and it's good I'll sell the CW one, it is just adorning Trypticons jaws at the moment anyhow. |

I was wrong about Shadow Panther, so who knows? But my predictions are:
Ultra Magnus- Retool of ER Optimus Prime
Wingfinger- Fossilizer Pterosaur
Ractonite- Fossilizer (no clue of what)

Nice to see Tracks there but where is Skids?!? This has been on my mind this morning. I've been putting together all the Diaclone cars to see what the display is looking like now, first time I've put all the recent Generations ones together. Although we're missing Inferno Sunstreaker and Trailbreaker they're all inbound, but it doesn't look like Skids is even due in 2021. So the question is - unless he's going to be an outright exclusive new mould somewhere, which is pretty rare and very unlikely it seems, where could one come from as a remould? Is there anything in the current range that could be redone to get his vehicle mode? I can't see anything that would give the kind of accuracy that these figures have now. So we're stuck with the Takara Legends one as being the best we've got for at least another 18 months. |

I've noticed from selling various g1 collections I've had over the years that Skids isn't popular. Maybe that has a bearing aside from the mould being quite different.
I am really really hoping for an Ark playset. I like my generations Metroplex a lot

On one hand original Skids is relatively rare. 1 year availability both sides of the Atlantic.
OTOH he's been reissued 3 times.

They obviously kept the moulds in better condition than Wheeljack's 😃

Skids was my first Transformer! I'd him to get the current treatment. One day...

I got my T30 one out of the loft earlier to put with the rest of the crew. I'd forgotten he is very IDW in style. I'm not sure if it's better to leave him out because he stands out, or put him in for the sake of completeness.
