    I think it's either a Deluxe, or whatever size class these "Mechtech" figures are. Prime's fuel tanks look like they would be interchangeable with the gun from the Bumblebee that we saw a couple of days ago.

    So he's a stand alone figure? Interesting.

    ^Yeah Baby! ;) 
    Austin Powers, baby! :D 

    *Back on topic: Very interesting. It does look like TF3 is going for new gimmicks and / or size class.

    IDK about you guys but I think he looks pretty good. The Mold itself is alot like the true in-movie cgi and those bigass tanks probably become sweeeet MECHTECHs

    Yea, I'd say its between a deluxe and FAB figure...

    I dont see many screw holes and the head is kinda big, too...

    Funny if its a scout, huh?

    I call voyager. Too complicated for a FAB. Unless he's a deluxe.

    And I don't like the new chestdesign. It's like 'Aww...crap!' ...
    Sooo I'm waiting for some other figures xD

    I'm gonna go with deluxe. Too much articulation for a FAB and too oddly scaled proportions to be a voyager.

    He was referring to the pic with twisty-ties for scale reference.

    Highly unlikely to be FAB or Deluxe just by comparing to the mouse in the background. Likely to be Voyager or Ultra.

    if thats a voyager im going to be pissed. Im not paying 20+ for something with that kind of obvious articulation ( the elbow joints) and the chest joint looks cheap you can tell it flips out and his head tucks in there ( mosty likely?) and its a cheat. After btl blades Prime I expect better from them.
