    How can you compare a CJ made for the MP line to one made for the Miniwarrior line?

    In my own little fannon, there is a place like Axiom Nexus, but with all third party toys. In that place all these alternate company versions of Cliffjumper stand around not trusting each other.

    I'm totally the other way around, these penny racer chibli figures will fit in my collection perfectly. As much as I like the ambition of the CJ in the picture, I just don't see where that aesthetic would fit in my collection.

    Cliffjumper is bought if the size of Hench.....not feeling Bumblebee at all. I think the Artfeather one is better personally based off that pic.

    Eh, I'm good with Classics BB and GDO Cliffjumper. Sometimes it bugs me that BB is so large, but not enough to rebuy the character.

    So does this mean there needs to be an upsized Spray and Rager?

    they both look horrible in my opinion..
    at least with some of the other mini warriors they were going for screen accuracy, but this time they did g1 alt mode accuracy then threw a bot mode in there.. which looks dumb to me. way to unproportional.

    not for me one bit.

    Wow, disappointing reveals from IGear today IMO. First Wheelie looked awful, and now Bumblebee and Cliffjumper do as well. WTF happened IGear? You were doing so well with the minis, at least design wise. :(

    Exactly this.

    Huffer, Brawn and Gears look amazing
    These look like crap...WTF???

    Unfortunately, if there are no other alternatives by the time these come out I may be tempted.

    These are just renders so the protos might be more refined.

    I can compare it because I have a classics Cliffjumper that fits in perfectly with the miniwarrior line..
    ON the other hand an awesome looking MP style cliffjumper would get my money.
    This probably will not.

    My statement was a simple statement of, "I'd rather spend my money on this than that."

    Gotcha. I agree that it is going to be difficult justifying Stinger and Rocky due to Classics having a BB an CJ already. I'm doing so by collecting the MW line as one that I will incorperate with my Classics but I am still in for a complete MW line.

    As for an MP CJ. I have zero doubts that TT will give us official minibots. He was on the scale sheet released with Sideswipe (well BB was) and to me that sheet is a blueprint not just a pretty pitcure.

    But I get what you mean.
