    Definitely picking up Sentinel Prime. Not so sure about Bumblebee.

    Sentinel looks cool, but I'm more excited for Ironhide.

    Sentinel Prime looks great, but I'm getting more of a Vector Prime feel from him.

    Bumblebee is a total waste.

    Can't wait for Sentinel Prime, he's about the only DOTM toy that looks appealing.

    Someone needs to end Hasbro a memo that they burned out their Bumblebee appeal a long while ago. He's OVER exposed, and they should really cut back on the Bumblebee. Give OTHER Transformers a chance. There is NO NEED for a toy line that has 20+ different Bumblebee toys, as this one probably will.

    PS - Save the leader class for the BIG characters, not the kid appeal ones.

    I really wish if they wanted an out-of-scale BB they'd just gone the "ultimate" route and made him his own size class rather than throwing him in and "wasting" a leader class slot. (they finally give Megatron a good design and we might not get a figure ~ shameful!)

    I wonder how Leader Iron Hide is scale-wise with the HA figures?

    but maybe they want the kids to buy the big toys? and what about kids who didn't get a BB from the first 2 movies and want a nice cool BB now? This is the toy for them... would i rather see a leader Shockwave instead? absolutely... but ultimately they're making these for kids first, so i understand. its just more money i get to save.

    He should look pretty good with the HA cars and as long as he's not taller then Prime then it's all good.

    ROTF gave us 4 leaders, i'm betting DOTM will as well. Sentinel, BB, Megatron and hopefully Shockwave later on...

    i dont think SP is as big as everyone is thinking he is. yes, he does appear to be almost 2x the height of the Voyager Figures next to him, but from other pics we have seen, the new Voyager Figures are shorter than current ones. DotM Voyager Prime is about a head smaller than HFTD Prime.

    also from pics that were posted form the toy fair a while ago, LC B, SP and IH are all in a pic together, they are on different chelves, but it is clear they are all the same height, or at least pretty damn close.

    so if SP is as tall as some are saying, that would mean that IH is going to be about 1in or so taller than ROTF Prime, in which case that would be WAY too big of an IH figure, even a lil too bog for HA scale

    Both will be bought on sight.

    Wish Ironhide was being released at the same time too...
