And after much delay, here's the pics I promised you:

FOC Wreckers (w/their additional weaponry)

[l to r: Roadbuster, Topspin, Impactor, Whirl, Twin Twist]

FOC Ruination (official combined form)


Technically, the twin cannon behind Ruination's head is not supposed to be there (it's supposed to be used as part of his BFG), but it's such an integral part of the combined form's structural integrity, I still use it there.

It's also a little ironic that the remolds of the FOC Combaticons merge to a combined form called Ruination. In RID, a remolded version of G1 Bruticus was released and dubbed "Ruination" for that series. The RID Ruination was still a Decepticon, unlike his FOC counterpart.

That's awesome and I can't wait to get the new G1 Predaking from HTS then...kind of surprise he hasn't sold out.

I wouldn't put it past HasTak-To (...sounds like a board game) to leave the remaining Wreckers out of the voyager treatment. For me, it all depends on the continuity they use as a source, since the membership has varied over the years.

If we take the most consistent members, then we have Twin Twist, Topspin, Roadbuster and Broadside left to be made/announced. Assuming they make a mold for either Twin Twist or Top Spin, the other will be an easy remold/recolor. Roadbuster's mold could probably come from an existing toy or have its own redeco potential.

My biggest hope is that we get a new Broadside. Not only is he a Wrecker in multiple continuities, but he's the last of the 3 G1 Autobot triple-changers to get a modern update.

Yes very nice indeeed! I do like Ruination better then Bruticus actually.
