Probably not, but I guarantee the kitbashers out will do something with them... More of a G2 Ransack homage.Rattrap's tail wrote:That plane, Ransack. Is that a nod to Hearts of Steel????
Heh, 25th Anniversary is covering all line, alright...
The best thing of these for me has to be both the return of the scout class and the best-esque heads on some of these.Cliffjumper wrote:Gobots-esque - nice!
The best thing about the toys we've seen so far, especially the non-Movie ones, is the variety in the alt modes for new moulds - there's less "Oh, another car that's practically identical to the other cars" going on.

I'm liking both "Ransack" and "Depth Charge". Very impressed. As others have already said in the case of the Bi-Plane it would be nice to own a transformer with a fairly unique alt mode. I'm struggling to think of a transformer that has a prop driven aircraft as its alt mode rather than a jet.
Depth Charges robot looks pretty nifty from what I can make out from the blurred pic.

not to mention Incinerator from the last movie line (The Osprey, AKA the tilt-rotor thingy with the stupid hands), though thats probably not what you had in mind.Cliffjumper wrote:Ransack & Sunrunner are two [/nerd-smack]

How about the ones with VTOL??? I know that it is a bit unfair but VTOL is used to get in the air and it happens with something that follows the same principe as a real prop.
TFA voyager Megs, is now the only one I am sure about.
For the normal props I've got also: TFA leader Megs, Cybertron Evac, ROTF movie legends Springer, Armada minicon Makeshift, movie Blackout, Rotor and Whirl, the guys from Energon Brut Max and that guy from G1 Bruticus. There are of course more of them but I don't know another one at the moment.

yes, plenty of helicopters. i'm rarely a fan, as the rotors are never well handled imho.
i'd love a WWII combaticon set, as they were from 'starscreams brigade'. or anything from HoS. which reminds me:
Hearts of steel optimus update, off of seibertron
i doubt my financial capacity to support my level of fandom for this. bugger.

his original toy bio refers to him as a "hoverjet" not a hover craft, not a jet, a hybrid of the two. Here:Bomburstsecretcode wrote:Hate to continue being pseudo-off topic, but do remind that the Ultimate Guide is wrong on a LOT of things. It's clearly a jet regardless.
