    After the face designs from the movie, I for one welcome our new giant-chinned overlords.

    well.....I really don't like the style for the series....but at least the toys look like....robots....

    well, to be honest I thought the toys were going to be as awful as the style for this....but they actually look pretty robot like compared with the series....but I'm seriously going to rip the head of off this ones and replace them with something else because the head look FUGLY....

    well my 2 favorites ones so far are in first place optimus, I love the alt mode....really cool ^^, but the head...too cartoonish for my taste, then in second place bumblebee....the same issue with the head but the body is not that bad and the alt mode...well at least looks decent

    for the rest of the figures.....lockdown and prowl.....too skinny for my taste but the alt mode are perfect, especially lockdown (reminds me the batmobile xD) and in last place...bulkhead...........no comments..........really I don't think I'll pick him up.....

    Their heads look so freaky. But I'll admit. The first toy that catches my eye is Lockdown. That one looks pretty cool.

    Robots Iz Robotz. I'll buy the ones I like and the rest oh well.

    But I like alla these. Bulkhead has been my favorite since I first saw it at BotCon, I really like how heavy and lumbering he looks, and the HEAD! The Head is awesome! If the mouth is hinged, it's even more awesome! Plus, with this Prowl Hasbro's finally made a cycle bot that doesn't suck as a robot. I dunno about Lockdown's robot mode, but his car mode just screams "tuff guy."


    yes, I'm enthusiastic.

    If the heads weren't so bad I would probably like these but the heads are just so ugly. Too bad.

    He's a police bike. It is shown in the SDCC footage that he uses a hologram of a biker cop to complete his diguise around humans. All the first wave of Autobots are emergency/authority vehicles of some kind.

    Prowl sort of reminds me of Beast Machine Silverbolt...I might consider buying the toy, but I'm not sure yet. For sure I'll buy the BB, he looks great. :D  Can't wait!

    Jeezus Lockdown looks win.

    If Bulkhead's a Voyager though (I actually forgot), he's definitely got Blackout's "Damnit I'm small for my class" syndrome. :(

    Yeah, he's a Voyager. To be honest, height isn't what they go off of for size class. If that was what they went off of, than Animated Lockdown would a Voyager. Personally, I don't think he's small for a voyager, just shorter than the average voyager, but a lot bulkier than most voyagers.

    Will most likely buy all of those seen thus far on the spot sans Prowl. Lockdown's alt mode looks incredible and it looks like he has automorph arm cannons. Bring on the leaders!

    Sweet. I can't wait to read your review of him. I made a quick comparison shot of the bot modes from these pictures, and Lockdown is by far the tallest of them. I find it amazing that a robot that's 20 cm tall, can transform into a car that is only 13.5 cm long.

    Make sure to get some comparison shots with figures we already know the sizes of.

    So awesome. I'm going to refrain on buying Cybertron Prime and get Earth Prime instead. I might have to get BB 'cause he's a cute little bugger... I really like Lockdown, he's just an overall good looking toy and character.

    What, you're spending it on a dream vacation instead of this crappy focus "tested" toyline?
