Walmart are updating their online listings for the upcoming Siege toyline – the first entry in the Generations War for Cybertron trilogy, and in the process, a bunch of new listings have come to light confirming more Decepticons for the line and backing up earlier listings.
Some of the listings are for characters who were previously teased or who we might have been expecting, like Starscream and Thundercracker, whose tetrajet alternate forms have been spotted in promotional posters. But the real reveals here include listings for a new Voyager class Soundwave and Springer, together with Battlemasters (Targetmasters) Caliburst (Slugslinger’s partner), Smashdown, and Pteraxadon – your guess is as good as ours on those last two – as well as further confirmation of a Leader class Shockwave, Voyager class Megatron and Deluxe class Flywheels. There’s also a listing for a Deluxe class Sixgun to give Metroplex an official toy of his Generation 1 “dude made out of guns”.
All in all, this line sounds extremely promising and is offering fans a great chance to add some interesting new takes of classic characters to their collections, inspired by the Generation 1 pilot episode More than Meets the Eye. With New York Comic Con right around the corner, we hope to see more of the Siege line and its elusive Decepticon lineup.
The only question is, if we’re getting Starscream and Thundercracker, where’s Skywarp?

Man,Greenlight looks pretty. Shame that Chromia isn't a combiner limb, but I can still form a complete Elita Infinite this way. (I'm using Wreck-Gar as the fourth limb for now.) If a combiner limb Lancer gets made as well, that's just icing on the cake.
So the Lionizer redeco is named Dazzlestrike? I like him already. His name has so much class and pizzazz that I can't help but love it. He's so fancy,Jazz and Needlenose would step back a few paces when he goes down to the club.

Cool that Greenlight will be the PotP mold, was expecting Siege Chromia. Maybe a proper completed Fembot combiner of Elita’s team will actually happen.
Kind of disappointed that the Lionizer she comes with is just the regular Lionizer with an added paint app though. Someone in another thread had mentioned wanting an orange Lionizer and this would have been a good opportunity for that. The fire effect part is good though.

Yep, it’s the moonracer mold for sure. Maybe lancer will end up in generations selects?

That combiner hand must mean she's a combiner, which makes me even more mad Chromia isnt. We would've had a full female combiner by this point! Oh well, atleast lancer will hopefully get released as a combiner as well in the next part of the trilogy

Edit: never mind!
huh, it's Springer's little sister?

Yeah, I found it again after I posted.

I just saw Siege Greenlight on Facebook. I went to tfw2005 to see if she had been reported as news then when I went back, I couldn’t find the image and must have been removed.
Siege packaging, green repaint of PotP Moonracer complete with Prime Armor and also comes with a slight repaint of Lionizer; black and grey still but with a green stripe on the sword.

Holy moly, thank you for explaining this. I would peruse Prowl's wiki pages and be completely confused about why anyone thought he was a prick. I never saw it in the original series.

Hopefully this is a sign of them showing up to my local Wal Mart soon.
Vector Oracle
Nice. I want Smashdown even more now so I can give him to Ultra Magnus. (Pteraxadon will be given to POTP Slash because she really needs a weapon.)

I hate bumping old threads but some new info has come up. Thanks to @Nevermore for finding these in Amazon's Database and sharing them with me.
It's seems the wave 2 Battlemasters have been listed in their system and has brought a new piece of info in to the light.
Battlemaster Smashdown is listed as Battle master Hammer so it seems the Speculation was right and Smashdowns alt-mold will indeed be a hammer!

G1Prowl
Yeah, I didn't find it funny. In fact, there's only one bit of comedy on TFWiki that stands out to me that I found funny. There's a profile page for a dog named Pis who dies in an episode of one of the JP G1 shows. The caption of the screen shot of the dog's gravestone was "Pis out." THAT shit was funny.
Mega Prowl
Well, the running joke about Prowl flipping tables is kind of funny, even that joke was put to use in the comics, I think that happened during the Titans Return arc, I enjoyed reading the comics.
Still, it's sad to hear that it's ending soon.
King Glurch
Well, I think the Skywarp jokes are funny. The thought of someone being pushed down some stairs always brings a smile to my face. I don't think the "Prowl is a prick" thing is funny though.
EDIT: I just realized that saying someone being pushed down the stairs is funny would make me seem sadistic. I mean the robots, not actual people.
G1Prowl
That was a reference to a running "joke" from the TFWiki, which itself was a reference to a highly unfunny inside joke between David Willis and a few other collector elites. It gets perpetuated and doesn't get any funnier, yet people still keep throwing it around. You'll notice a TON of "prick" mentions when Prowl is brought up as well. Same. Exact. Scenario.
Life was much better when Willis' "comedy" was confined to Shortdicked and didn't permeate the fucking boards 24/7.

Last year's Wave one PotP stuff was dispatched by IDToys exactly one month after the pre-order went up. Maybe it won't be the same this year, but if it is we (or at least anyone that buys from IDToys) may see them as early as 9th November.
catz
usually new stuff appear december the earliest, so some store may have stocks at that month, but it's safe to say they will all be ready in Jan2019
payres
IDToys preorder say November
