Nice. Pretty much everything above Legends Class is a purchase for me. Only ones I don't see getting are Laserbeak and Megatron. Posted by Mkall on May 24th, 2012 @ 8:13am CDT

Swerve still has Kup's musket rifle Springer has the sword, and that made him go up from "No way" to "maybe" on my list. Hot Spot looks more like Defensor, surprisingly, but he's still a must get, as well as Megatron.



And poor Motormaster can't catch a break, can he? First the indignity of becoming an Optimus Prime repaint like so many others, now his name had to be changed (trademarks, you know?) to Motorbreath of all names. Still, can't beat Trenchmouth.

Really? That's a GUN? I honestly can't tell. It's probably a combination of blurry pics and the fact that my glasses are in the other room. Either way, Swerve still looks good. Really? That's a GUN?

Maybe overstock will come over, or be offered on HTS. More likely Europe will eventually import them cheap. Maybe overstock will come over, or be offered on HTS. More likely Europe will eventually import them cheap. Posted by Jelze Bunnycat on May 24th, 2012 @ 8:21am CDT

All of them, sans Megatron maybe, are on my must-buy list, assuming they go for a lot less than the Japanese TFP line...

I'm in for Hot Spot and possibly Wheelie and Swerve. The rest are sorta useless to me. Springer has a nice deco but they should have at least tried to compete with Warbot Defender. That mold is trash comparatively. Posted by Flux Convoy on May 24th, 2012 @ 8:25am CDT

Any UK retailers going to pick these up? I really need that Hotspot. And to think, I nearly bought the Titanium one. Posted by Banjo-Tron on May 24th, 2012 @ 8:26am CDT

Powerdive hmm...I might get him since I missed out on the original mould.



The legends looks good but I made a promise not to buy them anymore @_@...



The scouts looks more or less the same as the original version.



The FE repaints arent needed since I have them both and they both look worse than the original one o.O...



The best part is I dont have to worry about them not arriving here since I'm in the South-East Asia region . Sweeeeeet~ Hot Spot and Swerve is a must-buy !!! They both look very awesome.Powerdive hmm...I might get him since I missed out on the original mould.The legends looks good but I made a promise not to buy them anymore @_@...The scouts looks more or less the same as the original version.The FE repaints arent needed since I have them both and they both look worse than the original one o.O...The best part is I dont have to worry about them not arriving here since I'm in the South-East Asia region.

HA!......Motorbreath! I don't mind that name too much. It's a reasonable substitute under the circumstances, IMO.



Hot Spot is great. I was waiting for it. The rest.......silly. Swerve, Springer and Megatron have to be the worst to me.



Wheelie raised a brow for a second. I would only ever get Wheelie if i found him on the shelves. I wouldn't get it sent overseas. But i do like the colours. (as blurry as they are in those photos). As i've said before, that's a great mold but it's perilously close to being over used to a point where i no longer like it. Posted by MGrotusque on May 24th, 2012 @ 8:32am CDT

That Laserbeak would be very handy for me, since I missed out on Skystalker (for my Mindwipe)...



I wish I could see a better picture of that Springer! Posted by Scottimus Prime on May 24th, 2012 @ 8:36am CDT

As when we were initially fed the information that these things were going to exist, my opinion has not changed. Megs and CJ are maybes, and given the combination of raised cost and import pricing, that's one h*ll of a maybe!



NEXT! Posted by Shadowstream on May 24th, 2012 @ 8:40am CDT

Yea, I don't mind the name Motorbreath too much, but I have to wonder why they didn't just call him "The Motormaster" like they did for last year's Botcon set.

Cliffjumper seems like a good buy for my classics collection. I have Gen Cliffy, but I've never liked that gangly look. Hot Spot is tempting, but how much will he cost? Plus he doesn't combine into Defensor and I've never been a big fan of him. So he's a maybe.



Like many have said, Warbot Defender blows this version of Springer out of the water. Wheelie's kind of a joke. Jazz's gigantic, buff body doesn't fit at all with Wheelie. It's like he got ahold of the Matrix and became Wheelimus Prime. Or at least he's been working out since TFTM. Posted by Gauntlet101010 on May 24th, 2012 @ 8:42am CDT

Nailed it. He's my classics Wheelimus Prime. Needs a bigger sling shot though. Nailed it. He's my classics Wheelimus Prime. Needs a bigger sling shot though. Posted by Tigertrack on May 24th, 2012 @ 8:44am CDT

What are the chances these are coming out in the u.s.



I think I love every one of these figures. Posted by freetouch on May 24th, 2012 @ 8:50am CDT

Honestly, that Titanium Hotzone is one of the most underated figures of the last decade, maybe ever. He's an amazing tribute to the original figure and would probably scale better with most of your figures than the one you just saw, unless your collection is Voyager heavy.



As far as whether I grab any of these guys, prize will determine a lot of it for me. The legends Hoist seems most likely.

wow this lot are all awful....



Hotspot is the only decent 1 out of the lot of these guys. Swerve using Kups mould just doesnt make sense and seems abit pointless considering hes being made by a 3rd party company anyways



Surely having kups mould repainted red/grey would have made a Better Orion Pax??? i guess the obvious isnt there on this one.



The rest are just horrible....seriously horrible...i mean wtf is up with wheelie using jazzs body? it just looks so wrong like a failed custom no one cared to finished



I know the old saying is 2 outa 3 anit bad....but what? 1 outa 13? I only collect classics so this is just a massive disapointment to me Posted by Swindle01 on May 24th, 2012 @ 8:56am CDT
