Also, it's a shame that Takara aren't giving us a more G1 flame deco on Tracks' hood. *EDIT* Just read that apparently all the Pics besides Lugnut and Straxus are Hasbro pics - so maybe we will get a different Tracks deco and Wreck-gar wont have all that ugly grey plastic. There's a red autobot symbol on Kup's hood though - does this mean that Hasbro are reverting to coloured faction symbols (like they did with Drift)?

Here are the links to the auctions for your convenience:

Kup
Perceptor
Wreck-gar
Jazz
Lugnut
Tracks

Also, the extra pictures should definitely be frontpaged if they haven't been already!

Thanks for the links Oilspill! I definitely took a closer look at all of them. Really great pieces these figures. Hopefully the Takara decos for Tracks screams G1.

Actually, tackertackle of TFW2005 seems to have found even better quality pics in his post here.

I'm going to go drool at them a bit more. Wreckgar even has the chest-antennae-gun-things he had in G1.

I split this topic from the Kup one since there was already almost 100 posts about Kup before these images for these characters started being discussed.

Fantastic! Jazz is awesome, pure joy!! Perceptor is awesome!!! Wreck-gar is awesome!! Tracks, Kup...AWESOME!! I think I might touch up Wreck-Gar with some metallic paint, actually! What a fantastic wave of figures! An ode to all Transformers fans, with a special wink and a kiss blown at us G1 era fans!!

I'm so excited for absolutely all of these. My only concern is Lugnut. Becasue It would appear that the "Reveal The Shield" line is movie-formers and Classics 3.0 together. So, I don't know which category Lugnut really falls under. Though, I'll probably get him anyways, I'd like to avoid buying anymore movie-formers.

WreckGar looks like a human being in a suit with that flesh-tone face. Cosplay WreckGar maybe?

Perceptor looks great, but maybe he should have been a CSI truck with a microscope and things in the back? Would be fun to build an actual truck like this, but I don't think the tracks would be street legal.

Man, that perceptor is great....looks just like him. Is he going to come with a big gun? or just the shoulder missile/cannon?

I like the alt mode colors on Hasbro Lugnut slightly better. Although his bot mode looks AMAZING with the purple, black and yellow. Hmmmm. I might get both if I can afford it. Perceptor is really shaping up to be a great figure, even without his traditional alt mode. He and Jazz will be BOS for me. I'm not the biggest Wreck-Gar fan, and without an army of Junkions he has less appeal to me, so I may wait on him.

I've been wondering, is Lugnut in the Generations toy line or is he for the movie toys?

Neither: as explained before, both lines will be merged into a single line called "Reveal the Shield" this coming spring.

Purple lugnut is kinda gross.

Perceptor is starting to look better and better.
Wreckgar is just amazingness. Hopefully they have a repaint/head retool version so they can ride each other like there's no (Roboerotic) tomorrow.

*Points at the Jazz figure* HE HAS THE SPEAKERS! HE HAS THE SPEAKERS!!! AAAAHHH!!! *nerdgasm*

But seriously, these all actually look great. Also, is Lugnut movie style or G1 Style? Or simply just "non-Animated" style? either way, I love him!

Definitely loving that Lugnut mold. I hope it's big enough!!!

Jazz is a mixed bag. The mold itself is good (love the speakers), but the unpainted white plastic looks bad in those shots, and adding the black unpainted wheels to that makes his altmode look too much like a cheap toy than a proper Transformer.

I think the only one shown there that is actually from TU is Lugnut. All of the others, Tracks included, don't show any real sign of a high gloss paint, or anything really that metallic. I will be taking that Lugnut over Hasbros, but I'll still end up buying both.

I like Jazz's speakers, too bad they can't pop onto his hips.

Perceptor is looking fantastic. I really like the headsculpt.

Wreck-Gar doesn't very bland in that pictures (which is why I believe it's a Hasbro TS) but still good overall mould wise.

All of these are easy pick ups for me.

Wow! Jazz is awesome. I love the speakers. What a great touch, in addition to making him spot on.

Perceptor is cool, but why the long face?

Wreck-Gar is dinomite! Will he be a scout or deluxe?

I get that, but it's becoming harder to tell who is supposed to represent the Classics side and the Movie side. I wanna say Lugnut is based of the movie formers (much like Lockdown was), but I can't really tell for sure. I'm going to buy him anyways, but I don't know if I should display him with my Classics figures or not.

Posted by Dr. Caelus on October 13th, 2010 @ 6:47pm CDT

What the heck?

Perceptor's chest panel, the part that became his 'stage' in his G1 toy, is hinged.

Does it form the rear window of his truck mode? Shape is roughly right...

Or could it possibly be that, somewhere in all that kibble, Perceptor is hiding some sort of vaguely microscope-like tertiary alternate mode??!!

Additionally, since they've been doing nonG1 characters in Classics, does anyone else forsee Perceptor being retooled into Cybertron Red Alert in late 2011 or early 2012? Not saying I want Hasbro to do so, it's just that the general profile is VERY similar to his Cybertron Defense Robot Mode.

i am so glad that generations is in deluxe size. it just works so well. of course i dont mind lugnut and grapple in voyager size on account of a few big 'bots doesnt hurt. Hasbro/takara have really outdone themselves. :APPLAUSE:

Posted by Jazz-1982 on October 13th, 2010 @ 7:02pm CDT

I'm really happy with all these figures but I've been wondering.........Just how many figures will eventually be in this line? They have already announced 22 and we've seen pictures of all of them except Frenzy/Rumbe, Wheeljack and Reflector (I suppose we're still waiting for clear pics of Scourge too). I wonder how many more figures they'll release, I'm pretty sure Classics was only 20 something :-?

- anyone got any ideas?

Re: New Images of Transformers United Lugnut, Perceptor, Jazz and Wreck-Gar! (1135360)
Posted by SKYWARPED_128 on October 13th, 2010 @ 7:06pm CDT

Jazz and Wreck-Gar are definite must buys. I think someone already mentioned this earlier in the post, but white plastic generally makes a TF look cheap. Jazz will probably get a couple of sprays from a can of GS gloss coat once I get him out of the blister pack.

Still thinking if I should add Perceptor to the list.

This is probably just me, but Lugnut's metallic purple highlights look out of place. It just clashes with the otherwise matter paint scheme. I think I'll stick with the Hasbro version. Bot and alt modes look awesome, though.

Not counting Legends class, Classics was 13 (three Voyagers, nine Deluxes, one Combiner). Universe was 38 (one Supreme, nine Ultras, 10 Voyagers, 16 Deluxes, two Combiners). Generations has 22 or so, depending on how you count (I've got 22 in the Generations proper counting Rumble and Frenzy and two figures; add one if you count HftD Sea Spray, four more if you add Jazz, Tracks, Windcharger, and Grapple).

At least, that's what I count. I think I got them all.

There is so little I can say about this. Every single one of these figures is freaking unbelieveably awesome. Seriously, I am going to be spending so much money, I don't know if I will be able to hide the fact from my GF. Such a dilemma.

Perceptor's mold is pretty cool, even sans-microscope.

And I'm happy too see Jazz come with speakers! Never would've think of that accessory.

Posted by Carnivius_Prime on October 14th, 2010 @ 3:07am CDT

I agree with Jazz's white plastic making him look cheap and crappy but I think his car form looks crap either way. Robot mode looks decent for Jazz though no I'm no fan of his G1 incarnation and I can't see myself buying it at all. Was very disappointed with the shoddiness of some of the Universe/Classics 2.0 figures such as Prowl (flimsy piece of crap) so it's put me off G1 character toys like that.

More I see Wreck Gar the more he looks appealing to me. Think he's going from a maybe to a very almost definite buy.

Perceptor looks boring as usual.

Lugnnut's a maybe. He looks movie-like enough to just about fit into my main collection but not until I've managed to obtain a whole load of other figures first that I want much more.

I love them all !!! Glad Wreck Gar is a motorcycle unlike I originally thought ???

But what is this "United" thing ??? Is it from Euorpe ??? Since when does the non-asian market get better repaints. I really wish the companies would unite and do away with all that "Henkei version" and "Hasbro version" and "Takara version" and now "United version". They should do away with all that crap and just have one universal version with the best G! accurate color scheme, no chrome, no metallic or any un-needed extras. Just a good solid paint scheme for everyone.

Yes, yes it would. I'd be all over that. The head is already pretty Reflector-ish, so I am interested to see if he will be a straight repaint, or will that panel, if not part of the alt mode, get's changed a bit.

I think they said at Botcon that his chest would be operational as a scanning bed/platform.
