    Isn't the company named Iron Warrior, not Tron Warrior? Anyways, it does look good. Hopefully we get other TF Prime characters.

    Yeah, it's Iron Warrior. It's hard to see the bottom line of the I in some pics so it looks like Tron.

    If they get all of the metal surfaces and metallic paints right this could be an epic figure. I can't afford to get non transforming bots so this isn't for me.

    It's a shame the Weaponizer had to include that awful cannon gimmick because that figure was the perfect opportunity for a Prime that scales well with most of the other figures. And there was no excuse not to have those wheels transform more or less correctly.

    I'll probably be buying this if it's leader ckass sized.

    Is it weird that this just makes me appreciate the First Edition figure more? He still had 90% of the accurate details and proportions that this guy does... plus he turned into a truck.

    Now that would get my attention.

    Thank you!

    Yeah, one I finished earlier in the summer.

    With an immediate Ultra Magnus, Silas-Controlled or battle damaged version as a possibility it's possible this line might have legs and expand to other characters. And being action masters I'm hoping that keeps costs relatively low.

    Tbh im not too crazy about most of the alt modes in prime. I did however love most of the bot mode designs so id be content with non-tf versions.
    Would Definatly want a Megatron without all the kibble and an airachnid. They could still manage a spider mode for her.

    I'd love to see a TFP Soundwave done like this. Or Knock Out.

    Yeah, a shame it doesn't transform, but it's an amazing action figure, and as a sucker for the TFP character design I hope they get as many as possible of these going. Definately gonna get him and his unavoidable Magnus repaint/retool.
