Earlier this morning we
posted a picture from the TaoBao auction for Generations Tracks. The same seller has posted an auction for Generations Thunderwing. This former Pretender is presented in deluxe form for the Generations line. He is reported to come with a flying drone(non-transforming), but it isn't pictured here.
See the auction at TaoBao

Looks to me the drone is there, attached under the cockpit, the same place where the inner robot would attach to the shell.

This mode kinda looks a bit bland. I can't wait to see the robot mode though

Interesting. I can see many repaints of this mold.

I believe it is on the picture, since they said the nose of the plane can become the drone, on the picture it looks like the nose consists of two parts - the tr-red part vanishes too suddenly, with a shadow.

could be the angle, but the legs look better in alt mode here than in the photos from that convention

I think the vehicle mode pick doesn't look too shabby. Looks transformed properly.
A shame there isn't a robot mode pick just yet.
I'm calling this now, this will get repainted into a Generations Energon Galvatron or a for a future Botcon.

At first glance, Thunderwing's alt mode looks kinda like Terradive's. Always interesting to see two bots's takes on the same(ish) vehicle.

I swear it's looking like a Deluxe RPM, flip him over for robot mode XD. Nah, I like the G1 Comic guys, looking forward to this.

Come on Hastak, you could have ditched the Primus repaint and Unicron slight remold/repaint and made this fella a supreme
I'll pick this guy up but he's at the bottom of the list for me.

I know it's a bad quality photo, but the alt mode looks too bland. I'm not familiar with the comics...does this resemble his alt mode appearance in the comics? I know it looks nothing like the original toy, at least not in colors. If this is the final color scheme, Reprolabels has their work cut out for them.
And I'm very disappointed that the "drone" doesn't transform. Why couldn't it have been like a Minicon or Targetmaster?

meh....not so much. Jet mode looks sort goofy. Certainly not gonna buy him even if his bot mode is cool. Keep punpin out the figures though. some may be hit or miss but the more the better.
WRECK-GAR!

He lies (*never* trust a seller on "inside info"), he's confirmed for Generation at the Hong Kong toy show.

Gotta get him. For sure. I am sure his paint apps will be a little better once released to the buyers market. Either way, it's a transforming Generations jet. A must have for me. Can't wait to see the bot mode.

Looks decent, though the color scheme screams Blitzwing more than Thunderwing to me. A probable buy, regardless.

They're totally different. Terradive has forward-swept wings. Thunderwing has traditional swept wings. I don't see any resemblance at all, except that they're both jets.

He's probably thinking Jetblade.

They're jets with 4 wings... and that's really all my first glance got.
