[Wheeljack35]

This was introduced at Botcon and will be a Walmart exclusive

They are basically repainted Energon Constructicons

I don't think they are even trying anymore.

 

Classics looked like it had huge potential but the LOC repaints and now this thing? Hasbro may as well just put their hands IN your wallet now. That is just silly.

I, for one, am glad they will be offering that again

 

Because my area didn't get ANY of the last waves of combiner limbs, so all the military limbs and the second pair of construction/air limbs never showed up.

 

Plus it looks MUCH better.

Kay I allready collected all green versions of these guys when they first came out... Why should I buy this hasbro when its not even different hmm?...

 

Damn man I had my hopes up clicking on this!! I guess the "exclusive" part shoulda clued me in though because most exclusive are simply repaints aka the target one... Whats funny though is I was planing on using these guys with the classic line allready HA! Still... I may get these and then open up my cards, or the boxed version... I'll have to decide once I get it ... I may keep this misb & open up the carded ones since they take up way more room!

I know its disapointing but then it is a exclusive... Shame we won't get a decent combiner out of this lineup though...

[Forcehunter]

So much for a decent Bruticus if this is what they are offering as far as combiners. I still may pick it up.

[Three Storms]

I didn't get the energon one, and the "Classics" version looks pretty cool. I might have to get it if I can find it.

[Silverbolt]

I only got one limb for the Energon one, ever saw any of the second wave of limbs, so I had to resort to ebay and BBTS to get the six that I was missing for the other two combiners. Don't know if I'll get it or not, have cut way down on the mainstream lines, but its nice that they've put them all in one box. Would have rather gotten the seacon set that was shown a while back though.

[Gundam Prime]

It woulda been nice if two of the limbs were remolded. But it is cool that others who didn't get it the first time will get another chance at it, in better colors too.

[Wheeljack35]

I only have 3 of the Energon Constructicons and never did get anymore

[Mike]

yeah, remolded limbs would have been nice

 

or two entire NEW limbs would have been awesome

 

a bulldozer and a cement truck

[khamla]

Too bad it doesn't look "More G1" if they did this thing would sell like crazy!

[Forcehunter]

Are any of these similar to the Target Universe Constructicons? Those look good and I have the four that were released.

[FUGAYZIE]

not impressed

[Straight Edge]

Eh.. I would never have expected a scratch built, 6-piece Constructicon team for the Classics proper. I also didn't bother with anything from the A/E/C Trilogy, so the molds are as close to new as they're gonna get.

 

Sucls that there's really only three toys in the set, but sprinkle a little "half their number has fallen in battle" and "Insecticon clone progromming" and you have a pretty simple explanation for this new incarnation, who's otherwise well colored and good looking as a Mini-Devestator of sorts.

dissappointing

[Rodimus Primal]

I'd say its dissapointing that its not a new mold and I'm not sure if I really want it since I already have the Energon one.

[Chug]

Cassics Devastator killed my mother and raped my dog!

 

 

God almighty, that thing is love. I must have it, especially if it ends up being cheaper than the Superlink giftpacks.

[synch]

I remember when I thought I found the last green limb I needed and then the color changed from green to blue as I got closer to the toy due to a trick of the light and the packaging it self DOH

[Starscream49]

OK first no where does it say classics. I dont think this is a Classic figure.

 

Secondly in its not in relation to the Target ones.

[Nguyen_Dragon]

I missed out on them the first time, actually its more like I never saw two of the limbs in any of the stores I been too. So this is good news for me.

[Stevy Maximus]

It is as much a Classics figure as the Target set or the Multipacks (which, it should be noted, were not originally designed for Classics, according to Allsparker Kyde).

 

It is a store exclusive, they rarely make new molds for store exclusives, much less in a filler line, which is what Classics really is.

 

Btw, it doesn't say Classics on the Voyagers, minicons, or multipacks. The ONLY spot in the line I've seen Classics has been the deluxes

[Starscream49]

I think classics may just be the line they put this in without it being a classic. This figure was long decided on before they new what was up with classics.

 

also, they will quickly learn that this will be a popular filler line and my not be used as a filler.

that is a crappy exclusive/repaint. i want the guy to have some freaking hands, not those stupid claws! damn they love to milk those molds to the last drop.

But this is just the second iteration of the mold, third if you count the Big Lots/Family Dollar/Dollar General non-repainted Universe-carded versions.

 

Just how exactly are they milking the mold? I mean, if this was another repaint of the RID Build Team or perhaps the Japanese Micron Boosters, I could see it being milked....but since this is the first time that they've been repainted, it just doesn't make sense to me.

[Bayushi Gemma]

I passed on this the first time cause of the pathetic limbs but I might pick it up the boxed set if the price is right. Besides being construction vehicles this looks nothing like Devastator.
