Courtesy of Weibo user DioXDio we can share for you a very nice set of in-hand images of the Transformers War For Cybertron: Siege Wave 3 Voyager Thundercracker and Springer toys.
The images give us a great close look at these new representations of the classic G1 characters for the Siege line. Thundercracker gets some comparison shots with his Seeker partner Starscream. Besides the new deco, we have a close look at the new head retool with a clear smirky expression. We bet some of you may try to swap heads with Starscream.
Siege Springer proves to be a great homage to his G1 counterpart, and we have images from all the angles and in all his modes. We are sure fans will be pleased to add this mold into their collections.

Thanks! 'Preciate it, @Thundercracker Blue

Yeah, WJ OSKO Arcee is pretty big. I can’t get to my copy right now, but here’s some side by side screen shots, courtesy of Emgo:

It’s not as good as a real life pic, but in this case I think Generations Arcee does a decent job of providing scale for reference.
Hope that helps!

Siege springer probably scales significantly better with the t30 arcee, the weijiang one is more or less masterpiece scale isn’t it?
JeremyGui
Does anybody know if Siege Springer scales well with Wei Jiang OSKO Arcee? Pictures would be much appreciated

I did the face swap with Starscream. They both look so much better.

I would not be surprised if it was "Buster."

These shots of Thundercracker & Springer together confused me when the first showed up as they're now known to be in split cases, with the case together cancelled

I notice today that EE appear to have the case with Thundercracker in stock now

I think, like with Thundercracker you need to see them with other figures. Just to see how they mash. Particular for Springer is Arcee and your Ultra Magnus. If they work it is good.
thundercracker looks so nice with Starscream.

Hmm…. I was reluctant on buying that Firestormer Pack since I care little for G2 figures. But I just might end up swapping the heads of Red Alert and G2 Sideswipe just like my plans for Starscream and the upcoming Thundercracker.
IMO, this face just looks better on Red Alert:
Meanwhile Slamdance could be part of my "Moonbase 2" faction with Blaster as commander if they ever make a new Voyager class version (I really don't like the FOC one anymore).

Reflector is all kinds of awesome (I even like him rolled up into a cube).
Brunt seems to be shaping up as the best of three armor bots (that alternate/fan mode looks like something from Beast Machines).
Springer looks great, though I am not sure about that green though, it’s a bit too ‘toyish’ for my preferences for Springer. But I’ll make judgement once I have him in hand and paired up with the rest.
Thundercracker and Red are remolds of excellent figures. Bot modes look great, but I think they're less effective in altmode than SS and SS. Not sure I need them (though the prospect of having 3 tetrajets lined up together on stands is enticing).

Excited for this springer even though i love the generstions one. They are nailing the head sculpts in this line imo.
This is a more g1 version. Bring it

Generations Springer was pretty amazing. Overall, he looked great and he came at a time when it felt like they were really cutting back, yet Springer came out and was large, complex, and had a great color scheme.
That being that, I don't really see these two figures competing. I know they're both Springer, but they're two very different styles. Just saying, as a fan of Springer, I'm happy to have both representations in my collection.
