Once again via eBay seller lena81822 we have a look at a new Generations Deluxe Class toy. This time it is the turn of Thundercracker who is a part of Generations Deluxe Wave 6 (IDW comic pack-in series Wave 2). He uses the Fall of Cybertron Starscream mold and rounds out the Seeker trio from this mold – though Hasbro will release their own Skywarp in Wave 8 for those who have not imported Takara-Tomy’s one.

I'd rather have a slipstream based off her wfc design, but wouldn't mind a custom head. I've always liked her and consider her the fourth best seeker behind the original named three.

Glad this guy is coming to the US via Hasbro. Not releasing the rest of the seekers using this mould would have seemed like a major missed opportunity, and represents easy money for Hasbro.

She was a different, sub-set, design of the seekers. I'll gladly wait for a 3rd party company to tackle that one. Here's hoping Planet X jumps on it as they have with WfC Omega Supreme and FoC Swoop.
With Hasbro getting their deco of Skywarp, does this mean Takara/Tomy will do a metallic deco of Thundercracker as well?

Strangely, as I was reading the comments about this mold I had a knock at my door. The mailman had my Starscream I'd ordered WEEKS ago, who I was starting to assume might never show.
I knew I liked the mold, but having him in hand I love him. Skywarp and Thundercracker are now a must

Looks great, but I was (based on the art) expecting a different weapon rather then a rehash of Starscreams.
TCracker
can't wait for TCracker. I already have Starscream and Skywarp. he will add to my collection of seekers nicely.

Or perhaps a custom head could make it Slipstream?
Razor72
Can't wait for this guy. Hope skywarp is more black. Guess my Takara skywarp will be hotlink now.

When is this supposed to hit the shelves?

Testify! Can't wait, TC is my favorite Seeker.

Wave 8 means it will arrive in Canada at Winners in the summer of 2015.

Can't wait to get TC and SW. TC also looks like he may make a good stand in for a Classics Triggerhappy with some repainting.
Knockout196
Definitly going to pick this up.

Looking great, I hope Skywarp looks as good.
unicronic
Well despite some of the naysayers this is a great mold. Bring on the Cracker of Thunder please.
NemiMonkey
This is like Generations all over again. Just nailed the color scheme right out of the gates. Now time will tell if the final figure will actually look like that and if Skywarp will actually be black and purple.

Well, since Skywarp's coming, I can go ahead and get this.
Will be disappointed if Hasbro Skywarp looks like Takara's. But I'm sure it won't.
Shark Jumper
I posted this weeks ago, but it went unnoticed

I think this mold has a lot to like. For one thing it is a very versatile which adds to the play / display value. There is a hidden feature that allows you to display the weapons in jet mode to make look more like a floating tank.
I have not gotten one yet but I can't wait get Starscream who IMO has a better paint job.
In my next toy run it is going to be SandStorm and Starscream.

good luck USA! I'm positive Canada will not make it to wave 8….consider yourself lucky if we even see wave 4…
yes it has. I got mine at Toys R Us a month ago at least, there was a sighting way back on May 13.
