    Thanks to an anonymous source for providing this picture to me. You will see his look is pretty much dead-on to Don's "Stormbringer" Jetfire. Rumor has it he has a helmet head and a sculpted head (helmet = G1 Jetfire toy look, non-helmet = G1 Skyfire head look).

    This is voyager sized, said to be part of wave 2, and if that's the case, should be at BotCon as Hasbro stated wave 2 would be shown there.

    Mirage is also in the top right, in color.

    Enjoy. Please don't crash our site.

    That is... mindblowingly great.



    Isn't that one in the eye for a certain Walky?

    Looks nice.

    I'm also glad to see most of these molds sitting side-by-side. It gives me a better idea of how big/small they are. Prime is alot bigger than his packaging lets on. I'm kind of disappointed that Astrotrain is no bigger than Bumblebee. Still, Classics looks to be a winner, which is a good thing given how disappointing the Titanium line is (to me at least).

    Wow, that's excellent from this vantage. O_O

    I wonder if it's another Don-hands-on design, or just based off of his Stormbringer art.

    Can't wait to get a better look so I can comment on the sculpt/joints/etc! :D  Thanks for the pic, whoever you are out there!

    Looks good. Looks like there's a glimpse of a painted mirage in the corner there too. Now for soundwave!

    Jetfire is heaven. Stormbringer FTW!

    And Mirage can indeed keep his front bumper attached in robot mode, gives him the needed torso bulk. Nice.

    Ok. Wow. That's amazing. Again I find myself torn between 6" Titaniums and Classics. Titaniums have a more mature, adult-collector look to them which I truly appreciate. Classics has just awesome molds, but are painted like playskool toys. Both lines have horrible Megatrons, but classics Megatron is definitely worse as I would be embarrassed to even have it on my shelf. I am so torn...

    can't really see enough of etfire too totally 'get' him, but looks good overall. Love the boosters. only thing i'm not feeling is the 'stalks' on his helmet for his head guns.

    Very interesting the Bumblebee is so out of scale with the other Classics (look at how much bigger his head is than Hot Rod and Astrotrain) yet is in 'relative scale' in Bot mode with Alternators (saw a pic, i think @ the Allspark last week)... wonder if that was a little 'bone' tossed to us from Hasbro for an Alt BB...
