    I think he has the best masked face, but the unmarked face looks the worst IMO

    Looks fucking glorious to me... but UT looks so fun to transform... So hard... to choose.

    Wow great robot design, and depending on the paintjob I can overlook the alt mode. And increase the shield size.

    I hope the final product turns out amazing, I’m interested in seeing more from this designer.

    Not sure why folks keep complaining about alt mode. I hate all the movie stuff and this has ME even wanting it. it's impressive in both modes. really well done.

    There's nothing wrong with the alt mode at all, it's nice and detailed, and the windshield size is fine. It looks like the actual Truck in my humble opinion. (a ton of panel lines though. lol) Also, keep in mind, it's a resin Prototype. I'm sure the final all painted up and ready to be sold version is going to look great.

    It'll pass as a chopped top version at best.

    A stylized windshield is a small price to pay to get rid of challenger's tree trunk legs, banana feet, box elbows, gutted biceps and funky proportions in my opinion. Both versions have inaccurate shoulders so I don't mind the side-step there.

    I'm liking this guy, but he's even taller then UT? The alt mode doesn't look quite as nice either. Not sure which one I want so I guess I'll wait for the comparison videos.

    Agreed. Even the panel lines are more manageable, which indicate to me a simpler transformation. However, the bot mode is superior on ToyWorld, imho.

    I think the feet, calves, head sculpt, forearms, biceps, and streamlined waist are better. Not sure if the back is more accurate or not. UT knocked it out of the park with this one, just saying I think ToyWorld one up'd them here. Plus, as Seth pointed out, the poses seem more natural on TW Prime, but maybe that's a little more subjective.

    I like the handbars on UT but is he missing mirrors? His grill seems a little more virticle than the movie. I wish one of them would have shelled out for rubber antennas.

    I’m cool with compromised alt modes, since I’m usually buy transformers for their bot modes.

    They're panted red and under the side window. Look like car mirrors.

    Bot looks so alive even standing still!! That's what has me hooked about this version.

    A lot of us feared that UT's articulation sucked because he looked so stiff standing still. In reality it can strike great poses so I wonder if it will be the opposite with the TW or, better yet, it means that the figure will be fantastic in hand.

    With good QC, as long as transformation isn't as overcomplicated as the AA one, I'm getting this guy.

    The new shield has a perfect size but the new sword is WAY too long thus totally inaccurate (the thickness is good though). It shouldn't be simply resized, it should be redesigned with different proportions. It should be about this long:

    I really hope they'll fix this because not only it looks ridiculous, but poses like this will be impossible with the current lenght...
