Hasbro have released official images from their SDCC2014 Transformers panel, and we’ve got them here for your enjoyment. First up, two posts of Transformers Generations goodness! Kicking off this post we have the Autobot half of the Generations Combiner Wars series – the Aerialbots and the mighty Superion! In this post we have a look at:
Generations Voyager Class Silverbolt
Deluxe Class Air Raid
Deluxe Class Alpha Bravo aka Slingshot
Deluxe Class Firefly / Fireflight
Deluxe Class Skydive
… and their combined form, Superion!

Dam, someone bumped an SDCC thread. This makes me feel sad because I missed out on Comic Con prereigstration for 2015

Look at all the arms dangling off the wings… I miss g1

So MotorMaster is no longer a Stunticon?
Had you said Stunticon Limbs….

Next wave with the other three Stunticons and Motormaster.

Thank you

He comes out in wave 2 with the rest of the Stunticons.

Ok I am new to this thread. I keep seeing for sale a total of 4 of the Airielbots. Shouldn't there be 5 total? Is the one missing Airraid? If so when does the last one come out?

TakaraTomy will definitely release this line, the question is when and how. If you're patient you'll be fine – you'll have no problems finding these figures for cheap later on.

Cool, yeah I think he'll scale well with Green Giant, that would make me very happy. I think this 100$ version of Superion is a lot nicer than TFCs, at any price.
Right now, still holding my BBTS order for the CW figures, but I bet that through HLJ, the Tak versions will be the same price as BBTS's Hasbro versions (if not cheaper). Maybe I should just cancel my BBTS orders.
I should be safe to assume that Tak will release CW figures in time right?

Not in terms of actual measurement but in a recent comparison shot he was much taller than Energon Bruticus so he should scale perfectly with recent third party combiners.

Does anyone know the height of Superion?

You're right, they did say comics with the deluxe at the SDCC panel.
However if you look at the boxed Optimus Prime and Motormaster shown at NYCC they're the four language versions.
I'll offer you a fiver there's been a change of plan and it's cards across the line with 4 language packaging for the US.
payres
A good point. The legs and most of the arms are the same in robot mode, but there's a lot of parts the same between Jet modes too –Airriad jet and Skydive Jet – and overall I think there's more in common than not.
Nevermore
Depends on your terminology and where a "remold" ends and "shared parts" begin.

I'm not sure that's the case: I recall reading it's cards with everything this time.

The 5mm peg holes will mean original combiner hands and weapons can be used with them. Expect a run on original Menasor/Motormaster guns.

Nice to see the combiner parts coming with the smaller bots, but on the flip side it means I have to buy Alpha Bravo.
Feralstorm
Pretty damn striking packaging this time around. I'm assuming they are just package samples, as the art gets pretty pixely when viewed full size.
Jalaguy
They're getting comics in the US, as before. These photos are of non-US samples, as evidenced by the multi-lingual packaging.
Fort Max
I also like that there's an actual hole in the hand so weapons won't fall out every time you repose them.
In fireflys art there's an aircraft carrier in the background. Nice touch.
