Time for another round of Transformers War for Cybertron Siege galleries here at TFW2005! Today’s primary gallery is for the recently dropped Refraktor – aka Reflector (damn copyrights). Refraktor is technically a single deluxe figure with his own space ship like alt mode. However, if you buy 3 of them – you can combine them into a space camera! This is a throw back to the classic Reflector figures from G1. Does it make sense? Who cares, space camera! Overall the figures are well done individually, capturing the feel and colors of the cartoon Reflector from the past with a splash of modern upgrade. The camera mode is great, each one of their shields is a third of the camera lens, and each of their weapons is a third of the camera tripod. Really great way to update the original gimmick.
In addition to the Refraktor update we’ve added very basic updates for two more Siege figures – Galactic Man Shockwave and Deluxe Red Alert. You can find their stub galleries below, we may add more shots to them over time.
Read on to check out all three figures courtesy of site sponsor TFSource!
WFC Siege Releases: Refraktor 3 Pack Set, Red Alert, Galactic Man Shockwave, Jetfire, Omega Supreme, Astrotrain, Thundercracker, Apeface

Hi
Confirming at least that amazon will not ship this one in some countries, others shops may have it

Woah mate that is just throwing money in the bin and then lighting it. Skywarp is anthracite true. And if you don't like it. That is fine. Yet to buy this set to then repaint him? Id say buy another Screamer and paint him black.
I really don't see a reason to specifically get Skywarp just to repaint him.

Netherlands here, tf-robots has it in stock. I pre-ordered mine so have it already. But it is out here.

Already put in my order just to get my hands on Terror-Daxtyl. The nice Skywarp figure is a bonus.

As his colours are somewhat inspired by the F-15 Prototype I guess the Red, White & Blue thing is deliberate. even if the final toy is grey usually.
I've been wondering if they plan to do other in cell shading too – such as Shockwave, (sold without his accessories) or Soundwave or Starscream. I can see the effect suiting Sideswipe too – if they want to do it on Deluxes too.
Far from it I think he looks great – the silver nose makes him evoke Armada Skywarp and gives him just that little uniqueness in the colour mapping – so like Red Wing I think that works – the lack of variety can make things look a little bland like it does with the Rainmakers. The deep purple is similar to Classics Skywarp. I'm not saying i'f object at all if they'd gone with a bluer purple and pure black – but rather than his normal colours – which seems to be a lot of people's fave 'seeker' deco , this give him a sort of Night Attack warrior or Stealth plane look to me.

Does anybody else absolutely hate the colors on this Skywarp figure?
Thankfully his mold is super easy to disassemble. I took mine completely apart & I'm getting ready to repaint it in the correct Skywarp colors. Skywarp was my very first Transformer back in 84 & I can't stand how they constantly fuck his colors up. If they molded his head in black then why would they mold the rest of him in dark gray? I can't wrap my head around this. And why would they use a really dark purple that barely shows up against black/dark gray when all they had to use is the usual/normal lighter Decepticon violet?
I have the same problem with Unite Warriors Motormaster & 30th Soundblaster. Just use fuckin black plastic! Why is this even an issue??? For those of you that don't know, the crappy brown plastic they used on UW Motormaster shatters at the waist. A problem that could have easily been avoided if they had simply used black plastic.

Yeah if they did would look better for sure. The megatron was meh this time around as well but the retooled cartoon colors makes him better
Nagatem
Hopefully they give us a cel shaded cartoon Starscream like with the optimus and megatron, he’d look gorgeous with the red white and blue, Lord Starscream the all American Decepticon
Joburg Guy
I am so exited for this! Mine\'s arriving today sometime. *squeee*
regenisis
not on amazon australia either yet. though we have the fans vote 3pack and the alphastrike pack. wave 3 figures weren't listed either
Stormragetron
shame he wont be in normal shops . Guess i\'ll have to make do with Starscream and hopefully Thundercracker soon .
transform75
Same for France, we have orders/ preorder for alpha strike and the impactor 3 pack and no Skywarp. It depends of the country.
transform75
Gréât job as always
Havokdogg
Still not available on amazon.ca which is odd since Alphastrike is.
SaintsIconsNemesis
I think you imght be right. I have the four seekers so far and getting red wing i think at the end of this month or early next month and even he looks better just being red. Yeah it's just off but you might be onto something
Nagatem
Honestly it’s probably because Starscream has so much grey, if it had been white like the cartoon, i bet it would have looked way better
SaintsIconsNemesis
skywarp and thundercracker\'s colors just fits this mold much better than starscreams, I can\'t seem to put a reason with it. I mean I am getting them all but even the 3 pack seekers as monotone as those colors are they fit the mold better than the screamer
Nagatem
Sorry he’s pure amazon unless someone got the pack for the repainted battle masters and is selling skywarp on ebay
Which is very unlikely
Nagatem
Well it’s official I’ve bought 6 of the same mold and am strangely ok with that
Lord Starscream, Thundercracker, Skywarp,
Acid storm, Ion storm, Nova storm
I just really love this mold, they are great in either form
I honestly would buy a Sun storm and Slip stream in this mold if they do it, not bothering with red wing because he’s literally just a panel character mess up or something
Seeker
I don't need this to be a exckusive and I would prefer him to be by himself.
